Dry Fruit Putharekulu

It was after a summer break in undergrad, my friends shared some snacks with me. Now thats what friends do. But thats when I also learnt that my friends  made those Pootharekulu and
Murukulu themselves. Seeing others achieve a culinary feat is one step closer to you doing the same.
Thats also when my friend explained he arduous process involved in making pootharekulu. And also that its stuffed with fine powdered sugar. So imagine my surprise when I saw these brown speckled pootharekulu. I was imagining if the brown had something to do with the health wagon. And then I learnt that it is that and another wagon, craze - dry fruit.
The switch to dry fruit sweets seems to stem from safety reasons.

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.
