Its a wonderful world

At Whole Foods I had Chicken Marbella. I wonder if Chicken Marengo in The Good Home cookbook is anything good like it.
Chicken Kiev. Chicken Divan. When a colleague got this for a potluck I misheard it as Chicken Divine.
Spaetzle reminds me of a sweet dish that my neighbor made during my childhood. She cooked rolled wheat dough tortillas cut into diamond shape in water with sugar and cinnamon. It reminds me of Kubba from the Iraqi cookbook too.
Noodles with cabbage.
Saffron is the stigma from the fall-flowering crocus flower.
Beets in orange sauce.
According to Richard J Perry, unlike spoonbread, corn pudding doesnt contain any cornmeal, so the texture is smoother. On the other hand, it is not as light because the egg whites are not beaten seperately. Okra is a member of the same family as hibiscus and cotton. Cooking Okra with acidic ingredients, in this case tomatoes, complements the slippery texture of this vegetable.
Peach Honey Butter.
I saw caramel frosted yellow cakes at Fry's grocery store.

Chemical study of food

Can you guess the physics experiments that  potato chips  are put to?  Cake recovery. siphon cake The picture of  algination  looks like people in a line dancing alternately with the next one's hands and legs.

Banana pudding

I went over the roasted banana pudding recipe from yesterday and found it too consuming (shopping time, dishes, baking time), I finally decided on  caramelized banana pudding . And meringue making is merry. Flour is used in making the custard.  all purpose flour plays the corn starch  role of thickening the custard. I used  Parle G  instead of vanilla wafers.

Slices and Stallions

While there are books that are all about just one ingredient like Flavored oils and vinegars there are others that are about a gamut of things. Everything Pizza cookbook has recipes for all the kinds of pizza that there can be with different crusts, sauces, cheeses, toppings. Smoked Salmon Pizza, Polenta Pizza. Cooking for engineers Tasso Ham . When I read that Tasso is also the name of an Italian poet, I wanted to point to his work too. I looked for it but found it in prehistoric language. It so happens that I am reading poems about horses and recognised Tasso's name beneath his poem translated. Second paragraph has life infused in it with equine motions. Another poem that I like in this collection is 'New Foal' by Ted Hughes.
