August 27th, 2008Johanna from The Passionate Cook is hosting this edition of “Waiter, There’s something in my…” and the something is picnic food.
It’s not quite picnic weather here - you’d need a waterproof blanket and several large umbrellas to even begin to attempt it but you can always get into the spirit of things.
When making picnic food you don’t want anything too fussy or time consuming and as I’ve decided to make small savoury tarts, rather than going the home-made pastry route, Filo (or Phyllo) pastry makes a handy substitute.
The filling has been kept simple - a mix of leek, new season asparagus and this lovely local Goat Feta

August 6th, 2008Have you ever tried bucatini? (At least I think it’s bucatini - it could well be maccheroncelli or perciatelli. If anyone knows the difference - check out below and let me know what you think!) It’s a long hollow pasta, kind of a cross between spaghetti and macaroni, and it’s perfect for eating with smooth sauces.
I picked up a packet of bucatini a few weeks ago, and set about making up a smooth sauce. This is from my backlog - when I constantly had a fridge full of asparagus and had just made my Scottish sausage.
Because I invented this all by myself, I’m sending it over to Lore at Culinarty for her Original Recipes event…
And because it’s pastalicious I’m sending it to Michelle at the <a href=”http://www…

July 25th, 2008One of the good things about being on vacation for two weeks is that I’ve not been able to cook and add food photos to my hard drive. That has forced me to go through what I’ve already accumulated, and either trash a dish, or make a mental note to post it. Pathetically, when scanning through old photos, I can barely remember what I cooked, anyway. So with the embarrassing addition of more than 750 vacation photos to my hard drive this week, it’s been easy to delete, delete, delete old food photos, and mark the recipe (if I can actually remember where it is) to be made again with much better photos. Sounds like a great plan that, if I know myself, will struggle toward execution. So much food, so little time, right?
In the meantime, it’s the weekend, and although half the world is smack in the middle of summer and not thrilled about turning on their ovens, knowing foodies as I do, sometimes, a recipe that’s easy and delicious makes us rethink…
