Of grains

My food scout told me of Ragi Sankati made from Finger millet.
Dalia is my favorite porridge
Things to do
I like this oats uthappam recipe. It is similar to Oatcakes.
ragi dosa sounds good too. I had it once when I stayed as a paying guest in Bangalore. I even had Basundi there for the first time.
Vol au vent screams make me. Why should I be partial to Mille feuille ?
Recently we were talking about Vark. I came across the name in food lovers companion. That word led me to Dragee. We used metallic pearls when we made cakes at our undergrad hostel.

At the new apartment, theres a place to grow vegetables. Foray into forage.

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.
