On the spot


In writing they say, form increases creativity. that is when you have a restriction of rhyme or pattern, you will come up with better lines. Similarly when you have an ingredient that you have to use, its like hitting a jackpot if you can come up with a good recipe. I have heavy cream remaining from the 'farmers cake' debacle. I have mangoes from Costco which are awaiting their turn to become mango shake. Cream cake is a good way to use up the heavy cream. And mango topping is the way to hit the spot. No reason why this couldnt go in between the layers too. I am amazed that there are still many kinds of cake unknown to me. I mean 'cream' as the show runner.

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.

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.
