Fruits of Labor
Last night I arrived home at about 6pm. From then until 10:30, I was cooking non-stop. Now, I'm no Iron Chef, so I didn't churn out 5 dishes per hour, but here is what I managed to throw together:
- Batch #1 of slaw - traditional with mustard, vinegar, sugar, and apples.
- Thin-crust pizza, whole wheat. Trader Joe's made the dough, but I "rose" it, shaped it, added spices to it, made fresh sauce, and put it all together before firing it at 550 degrees for 7 minutes. Yum.
- Batch #2 of slaw - spicy Asian with soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, garlic, and chiles.
- Creamy carrot-ginger-nutmeg soup. 1lb of carrots, slow-cooked in water w/ ginger, then pureed and nutmeg and cream added.
- Tiny batch (scaled down 1/6 to a 6x6" pan) of Ina Garten's "Outrageous Brownies". I successfully resisted the urge to have ANY last night. I know from experience that brownies are far far better the next day, thusly one is sitting on my desk right now, taunting me.
