Spices
Spud Sunday: Of Spice And Spud
Events are conspiring against my efforts to study with Atul Kochhar, so I must study his book instead, from whence come these wonderful potatoes with cashew nuts.
Spud Sunday: The Great Aleppo Pepper
When life (or a fellow blogger, at least) sends you aleppo pepper, you use it as an excuse to make some potato crêpes – if you’re me, that is!
Spud Sunday: Spicy Skins
These spicy potato skins mean that not only have I found a use for the harissa I brought back from my holidays in Tunisia but I will also be running out of it very soon…
The Great Oppression
Some vegetable are more challenging that others – turnip and cabbage in my case. I hate to waste food but I sometimes struggle with finding different things to do with these two.
The Gingerman
Gingerbread men were a feature of my childhood, though I never had a fancy cutter then. Now that I had obtained such a cutter, it was time to recreate some gingery childhood memories.
Old Spice
Caraway – perhaps not the most popular of spices in some quarters, but a very ancient spice and one that I am rediscovering. I’m particularly fond of adding it to stir-fried cabbage…
Recession Bites
A piece of recessionary advice – eat more chilies, because you’ll want to eat less of everything else!
