What to do with egg yolks

Last night, I made cauliflower. There was a bell pepper too. I could have made them as separate curries with tomatoes added. I didn't have energy to keep two stoves burning at once. Skeptically I cut the capsicum into slices and added it to the curry. There were 4 egg yellows I didn't no what to do with. I added them to the curry while letting the vegetable cook. On the top, it could get steamed and not mess with the curry. Later I just mixed it up. In the end it all worked out great. The tomato juice, water from the vegetables and the egg yellows worked together to make a creamy sauce.
Egg yolk sauce is an interesting story in trying to analyse and deconstruct your favourite food. For the times that my pantry is out of Maggi, I think of what is in its masala.

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.
