Cooking Tonight (continued)

[Nicos]

Last few nights we've been eating our way through some yummy roast beef.
Tonight is a cross between an aubergine and mutton moussaka and a tagine. Served with couscous.

DON'T GET INVOLVED!!!! Even if clearing up the kitchen is an absolute nightmare. Otherwise they have so many excuses for not trying again.

He enjoyed it , lots of praise given . I shall request again he always used to do some of the cooking but has got out of the habit

Pizza tonight and a film

[Snoop Puss]

Stuffed home-made pasta. Not sure what shape. Stuffing based on leftover confit de canard.

Pasta to be made with Italian friend D up the valley. Looking forward to learning how to make those fiddly things like tortellini and cappelletti if there's enough stuffing.

Surprised to be eating so well in these lockdown conditions. Only thing I've really had any complaint about is the cheap jam from the local shop. Mr Snoop refuses to pay 2.50 euros for a jar of anything better. But it's my own fault, really. I know, though he doesn't, that there's a jar of really good raspberry jam in stock.

^^^^ jealous of your pasta lesson . Yum

[greenishfing]

Cold today so comfort food. Toad in the hole, mashed potato and swede, cauliflower cheese and carrots with gravy.

[Nicos]

Veggie stuffed pancakes with a mushroom sauce
Followed by rhubarb and apple tart

[Mr Bones]

Fasselada last night (with our own dried beans), sourdough and salad. Probably make pizza today.

We ended up with tortelli last night. Where D is from, they're square-shape, so like large ravioli. Delicious doesn't even cover it. I expected them to be good, but they were really special. Pasta made with 70% 00 flour and 30% semola remacinata, which is a strong, slightly yellow flour. Not sure what the remacinata added to it apart from colour. Possibly elasticity because it's a strong flour. Anyway, if you see any ever, well worth giving it a try.

Plenty of leftovers so today will be cappelletti. Yum.
