potatoes

I usually make broccoli with peanuts and frozen mixed veggie - beans,carrot, corn. Today my husband requested for potatoes with broccoli. I put a few purple skin potatoes for a boil in a pressure cooker. After 3 whistles they lost their color.
Since I had the potatoes I wanted to make part of the taco that Adam had at Juan in a million. It calls for a boiled potato, pepper, eggs, salt on a griddle. I didnt add enough salt.
I had some green chutney in the fridge. Some toasted walnuts  and grated carrots from the morning glory muffins, pomegranate seeds. In they went with the boiled potatoes to make this salad.
The time taken to process the tart of the pomegranate seeds, followed by the walnuts crunch, adds spurts of taste leaps in between the mellow potato bites which kind of clears your palate for the next bumpy ride.

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.

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.
