6,412 MEAT TENDERIZER/18 recipes
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:
It's easy to make your own home-made pasta. Many Italian families do it every day. This is a very traditional original recipe from Larousse Gastronomique the French bible of fine dining and cooking.
An incredibly simple way to prepare the chicken.. wonderful rosemary aroma (I used fresh leaves).. tasteful lunch.. thanks a lot..
Grilled portobello mushrooms are juicy, tender and flavorful, it's a delicious ingredient that can be used to make a salad, with the slightly bitter peppery arugula, and mild gruyere cheese, a tasty, quick and easy salad ready to enjoy!
Buttermilk Fried Chicken recipe
Breakfast Bread Pudding with Sausage/Ham recipe
An easy German style main dish with a creamy sauce. Carrots are braised in white wine until tender-crisp with steak strips and onions with a splash of garlic cream to bring it together.
"Kohlrouladen" used to be a staple on the menu for regular people in Germany during winter time. The relatively long preparation and cooking time pays out, because it can be easily reheated over a couple of days and gets even better and tastier then. Fried potatoes complete the picture, but you can cook the potatoes also in the pot with the sauce, if there is space left. This recipe can be varied in many ways, be it the stuffing (ground meat here), or the sauce. The recipe is as traditional as it can be; the ingredients are adjusted to availability in North America (like Savoy cabbage in lieu of "Weisskohl", bacon to replace "Speckwuerfel"). For sure the ground meat can vary depending on preferences or diets - I bet quite often in the "good old times " regular people did not exactly know what's in the ground meat they got from the butcher - at least it was some meat, for most of the families only once a week.
It's a simple dish but has lots of delicious flavors. Garlic and lemon zests are cooked in butter-olive oil mixture with additional fresh lemon juice really make this dish heavenly tasty and refreshing. You can sprinkle whatever nuts you have on hand or you prefer on top.
These meatballs were great, and my kids really loved them. Will make it again.

More of a stew than a soup as the broth is absorbed and thickened by the soba noodles. Very hearty and loaded with goodies. The flavorful broth covers all of the ingredients more like a sauce.
