Zucchini Quiche

Potatoes the new quiche crust

In my friend's words:

Why I chose this recipe 
I didnt have time for breakfast most days and wanted an egg based item I can quickly grab and go and heat at work and this fit the bill. These quiches are good even now in the fridge- 5 days later.
I came across a post in thekitchn website for using shredded potatoes as quiche crust and was immediately drawn to it. The combo of the two recipes was perfect. I didnt skip any ingredients and used fresh shredded potatoes.

Next time 
maybe I will salt and drain the potatoes - maybe that will crisp them more.

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.
