The recipe was given to me a dozen years ago at a soccer game. It is a delicious version of a famous Italian soup.
So to start off with the first post, I decided to make a meal that screams of comfort food. Whilst it does take a bit of a while to get the meal done, once you take that first bite, heaven couldn’t seem closer if you were Adam trying to touch God’s finger in the “Creation of Adam” fresco created by Michaelangelo. The meal I speak of is Cottage Pie. There is much debate as to what exactly a cottage pie is and how it is different to a Shepherd’s pie...I don’t know. The dominant theory is that Sheperds pie uses lamb mince, whilst a cottage pie uses beef mince. I don’t know about you, but the term “Sheperds Pie” does not get my tastebuds going quite as well, so I prefer the term cottage pie. Besides, comparing the price of ground (mince) beef to ground lamb, a student would pick up the beef mince in a heartbeat without even so much as glancing at the lamb in the meat section. This cottage pie that I made is full of flavour, and just makes you want to cuddle up next to a fire and watch TCM movies all day either by yourself, or with a significant other. Here is the recipe:
Cook like a famous French chef with this simple recipe that uses rabbit fillets and creole mustard.
This Jamaican Sweet Potato Pudding cake is smooth and creamy, the coconut milk, raisins and rum add huge flavor to this dessert.
Add sophistication to a home-cooked meal with this dish that can even have a famous French Restaurant saying "Oui, oui!".
Anadama bread: New England classic yeast loaf with cornmeal, dark molasses, and a famously grumpy origin story. Slightly sweet, deeply tender, with a crumb that toasts like nobody's business.
Honey curried chicken baked in a sticky glaze of butter, Dijon mustard, honey, curry powder, soy, and ginger. Marinate for an hour, bake uncovered, and baste as it caramelizes.
Mortadella is one of the most popular cold cuts we have in Italy. It's a typical product from northern Italy, made of pork meat, little chunks of porkfat and spices. It's tasty and savoury, the perfect filling for a sanwich, and ideal for stuffings. It's definitely my favourite 'salume' ! Try it in this recipe, it's a special starter - delicate and sofisticated - and it's EASY to prepare! I found this recipe on the website of a famous producer of traditional Italian cold cuts.
