An interplay of textures

Two film pieces of any kind, placed together, inevitably combine into a new concept a new quality
- Sergei Eisenstein, The Film Sense

A 3o'clock snack was just reaching its end. Just few drops left in the coffee holder and lots of noisy air. There was just one piece of cake with cream cheese frosting and a peach in a layer. There were cut strawberries, honey dew melon. The baked peach with the fresh fruits is a juggle of textures that will make you change sides on whats your favourite.

So my roomate and I made the carrot soup in pure & simple. We had to pressure cook carrot and potato for more than a whistle. The recipe begins with cubed carrots. In the picture I see. carrot wheels. Probably that would have softened it faster. A thing to try. I did like the end effect. I would have to have other carrot soups to find out more about the range of the soup taste. I will go ahead and make the vegetable garden soup. The recipe calls for two sets of tomatoes and carrots cut differently. One set goes to form the mush and the other on top.

Egg Malai Masala

  Egg Malai Masala  Its fun when things turn out as they should. I pureed the onions and then cooked them well. I added the milk for the egg Malai Masala and made chicken curry with other half of the onion base. I used kasoori methi in both. Many times I have felt the onions grainy, but this time I got it right. Patience.

Cuban Bread

So you should already know the sweet and breadrolls book if you have already read of the popovers. I have planned on making bread for a long time. A detour of popovers and finally I'm aqui. From the same book, I tried this Cuban bread and enjoyed making the slits in the bread. Like a surgeon. I still have to get the proofing right. The actual recipe reading takes place in real time. I was reading about the bread on the web and when I came across the lines about how it is different from a French bread in that it is left to rise after shaping the loaf, I was worried that my Cuban bread would lose its nationality. Turns out that I hadnt progressed that far into the recipe. The Best American travel writing 2008 Khubz al arabi
