Though the monsoon has “officially” been here since the first week of June and the weather guys (not the ones on TV but the guys doing real scientific predictions) have been giving us all sorts of explanations as to why the rains aren’t quite here! Whatever the reasons, the monsoons have suddenly set in here with a vengeance this last week. Its much cooler now and the perfect weather for hot, spicy tea, not that I need much of an excuse to drink tea.
I have done a post on South Indian Filter Kapi/ Coffee, where I mentioned that while I do have the occasional cup or “tumbler” of coffee, the tipple of my choice is and always will be “chai”. It would be unfair in the general scheme of things on my blog for me to ignore tea so this post is dedicated to Indian chai.
It is a bit unusual to find tea lovers in coffee kingdom and <a href=”http://mydiversekitchen.blogspot.com/2…

June 29th, 2008The Daring Bakers hosts truly have us globe trotting without buying a ticket. We have gone French in the past, with Bread and the Opera, and this time we’re doing Danish!
Welcome to this month’s Daring Bakers Challenge and my fifth one. Kelly of Sass and Veracity and Ben of What’s Cookin set us to make some Danish pastry this month. As usual, this is another cooking/ baking direction I’ve never gone before. But this time was a bit different for me. I went into the challenge knowing what a Danish pastry looked and tasted like!!
As usual, we were provided with lots of information regarding the history and also links …

June 22nd, 2008As excited, even apprehensive as I was about working the Lincolnshire show with Foo Go, it actually turned out to be one of the busiest, unfortunately least enjoyable days I’ve had since I started. It dawned on me quite early on, that simply moving production out of the store, into a big tent, was not going to bring the double shots of fun than we had all expected. More akin to a strange, working camping holiday, the sound of the wind flapping the PVC doors, reminded me of all those fucking horrible trips I endured as a child.
On a rather more presitgeous note, I was completely unaware of the reach that Foo Go had. With almost the entire cavalry of food producers being sponsored by us; which was great, since it gave me - I’m sure - a completely false sense of grandeur as I walked up to the candied nuts stall before we left, and had the already incredibly nice lady, be super nice to me because of the logo on m…
The Lincolnshire show, 2008.
June 20th, 2008Every time that I think I’ve got my husband figured out, he does something that surprises me and makes me fall in love with him all over again. If food is love, this dish is obsession. My husband volunteered to make this week’s recipe for One Local Summer, and he truly outdid himself. This came out tasting so mouthwateringly delicious that if I didn’t know any better, I would have thought that a chef at one of the city’s finest restaurants had whipped it up. The sauce is where it’s at with this one, and if there’s one thing my husband does well, it’s sauces.
