Differnce Between Hedge And Private Funds Are

feet (or hands) of pork with mushrooms

What things are. When I was young and unaware I did not like anything at all pig's feet, and why my mother was out of fear. If there was nothing I ate, of course, but the skin or crazy, and certainly, if I could choose, would prefer otherwise, I'll tell you ... a chicken with potatoes, for example.
Until you get that age, in which one day come to dinner, and dinner is ready and no one comma, one of the same, and another, until finally tired of your mother prepare dinner and begins to pass you "like" that you pass it, and make dinner thinking they like them and not you, and somehow I get the girl, late and hungry and there is only trotters.

- "O dinners that or you do what you want but it's there!"

Well, I were divine, fantastic, delicious .... I ate the skin, bones sucked, I dipped bread into the tomato and I think until I ate a banana for Rounding out the dinner. Since then I like, much as my Maxi you like best, which do not know why he had not done before.
I like, because I wanted to be different, but not the typical single tomato. O boned and stuffed with whatever, that give more task, apart, Escura bones is what I like and in restaurants, if you put the foot bones, which is not as usual, you can not make sucking and re-than-you-suck as you can in the privacy of your home. On the other hand we must also take into account the head servant, icing the foot and then see recipes for ideas ...

So as I said, I searched for all books and magazines from home and finally the only one that seemed appealing was a recipe I found the restaurant The Pep Passadís , a classic among classics, and although no had all the ingredients you put at the bottom of the letter, I could make do with what I had.

ingredients I used were:

  • 5
  • trotters
  • Assorted dried mushrooms (camagrocs (Cantharellus lutescens), porcini (Boletus edulis ), trumpet de la mort ( Craterellus cornucopioides)) A eye.
  • 5 shitakes
  • dry 1 / 2 Viada cut bacon or what is, bacon
  • 3 duck gizzard confit
    cut up into pieces 2 onions
  • 4 tomatoes 3 cloves
  • 1 bay leaf 1 sprig
  • dried rosemary Salt
  • olive oil
  • a carrot
  • a celery
  • a piece of leek, the green almonds
  • 10
  • Pine. A
  • eye
  • 10
  • hazelnuts 1 garlic clove


first thing is to boil the feet, attached to not deform, with the onion with three cloves stuck in it, laurel, rosemary, half head of garlic with skin, leek, carrot, celery and enough salt. From what I read, should be boiling an hour and a half to two hours (in some places put a half hours and put in other two) I made in the pressure cooker and freely weighed with 45 "would be perfect. The I did the day before for not having to rush later.
In the morning I started with the sauce. In a pan put oil, duck gizzard, and bacon cut very small with a little salt, a little, that the bacon is already salty, until it was golden, then added the other onion finely chopped, leaving also brown. Once golden brown joined tomatoes peeled and cut into pieces and the rest of the garlic bulb with your skin. Over medium heat for about 15 "more or less. Meanwhile, the bite did grinding nuts and garlic with a little water to hydrate the mushrooms. When the sauce was more or less been added the bite and a little boiling water and let little hands a little lower. After a few minutes I added the pork feet and I put a little more broth simmering leaving for 20 minutes, uncovered. Constructive self-criticism

.-> I have to improve the cooking time because I dumped a little. Tiernísimos that if. When I took the photo thought I did not do justice to how good they were and not publish it, but how about a bit I took my mother and ate when I called to tell him they were real good, they were better that those who did it, and that (As advertised in the detergent) had told anyone who would listen.

I liked it so much I thought as if it deserved a post.

Canon Dc20 How Transfer Computer

Briámi

Briámi is a cazuela gratinadas of vegetables, thought it something to ratatouille ratatouille with potatoes or French, and emphasizes the Because I believe that something thought it English cuisine, Italian, Greek ... and why not? French have much in common. To begin the taste for fresh produce in general and for vegetables in particular, although each has its many intrinsic characteristics that differentiate them.

Briámi Well said that is a pot of vegetable gratin, I guess you eat in Greece, but is particularly characteristic of the northern islands of the Aegean (read Lemmens, Lesbos, Chios, Icaria, Psara, Samos Innusses and "leave me any?) where the cuisine is very varied and have developed incredible mix from Greek elements, Venetians and Turks that when combined with ingredients make the difference from each other from the culinary point of view. In addition to the added value that Samos is one of the most famous wineries of Greece where they make the best wines of Muscat, sold worldwide.

Ultimately, Briámi consists of:


  • 500 gr sliced \u200b\u200bzucchini
  • 500 gr potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced \u200b\u200b
  • 500 grams of eggplant slices also
  • 500 gr. tomatoes cut into cubes
  • 2 onions, sliced \u200b\u200binto rings
  • see 1 pepper, cut into strips
  • Parsley priate
  • 1 / 2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 / 2 teaspoon oregano
  • AOVE a glass of
  • a glass of water (I guess if mineral better, I added tap)
  • 200 gr. Goat cheese crumbled
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper


Put oven to 180 degrees and as it heats are placed vegetables in an ovenproof dish seasoned with oregano, thyme, salt and pepper. Mix well and pour over the oil and water. We put the tray in the oven and leave it more or less about an hour and a half, if need be added a little more water. A little before removing from oven Briámi spread goat cheese on top and
is broil. Serve it hot, but I kinder felt a cold and rested overnight.
The cheese I used was a handle bars, soft, soft cheese from sheep that is done in different regions and say I think, because I bought my poultrymeat deli long-Carmen I did not know much more than specified the fact that he was Greek and it was Feta. For its characteristics it was deduced that comment.

And no, I have not been in Greece recently. In fact I've never been to Greece, all these I have taken and put into practice thanks to the book "Culinary Greece. The Greek cuisine" of the editorial Könemann a great book which I have already several in my collection, completito where they are. You will introduce in the country through its regions, explaining in detail the s features gastronomic every one of them.

PD. No. This book brought me no kings. And no. I have not come to talking about my book.

Congratulatory Message For Marriage

My torch

As a child I was very, very good and I've been good with my Kings (lease, Maxi and Mini), the Kings have been very good to me and have given me a kitchen torch.

VOILÀ (see that nice)


The fact is that I wanted for a long time, but well, well, I had not stopped to think for I needed it, I think I got the monkey when I read this recipe of Thumb @ , then I saw the program Combinat Plat a recipe precisely Jordi Herrera, a gutters filled with vegetables, noodles and sauce escalivada ... Or something. In short, a very original thing you did with the torch, and of course, ass ass I wish, "melopidí." I did not think I would listen, and I forgot.
Now I have a torch and even after the initial enthusiasm and try to grill him gutters (that's no good), I was a little stop to do anything other than burn sugar crème brûlée or caramelized foie could use it.

Today I've been walking around the net and it turns out you can do a lot of things with it. Since using it to clean meat pen or hair, which I find fantastic, until a bunch of recipes to which they want to give a smoky, or like I said before, caramel desserts or savory dishes that we want to compare ...


I'm fascinated!

This weekend I put to the test and I will share the results here. Suggestions welcome ... you want to rock the torch and any contribution is welcome.

I said I'm fascinated??

Homeopathy Ruptured Ovarian Cyst

Pumpkin pastries and cakes Fine (or something)

Every Christmas my mother made some cakes, I guess that should do well in many regions but for me are typical of my mother. A friend of yours sends you by November, a couple of pumpkins for cooking and confit .
Well, the confit the guard, until they get the Christmas holidays, which allegedly has already purchased the exact point of maturity to his role and then prepares a Candied Pumpkin pastries and a Fine Cakes are our delight and we pushes back in time.
My mother gets older and increasingly it is harder to do things, (well, rather than put them, then once set no stopping her) so this year as they were dragged its feet, I volunteered to pinch him, and once more in plan witty reporter, taking notes and photos of each and every one of the steps you take to make these delicacies with which year after year we have been entertaining.
When I arrived, she already had candied pumpkin, but I explained in detail that the day before, has put it on your skin boil in plenty of water and a lemon cut into quarters. (I had to do because it has twice as big as pots for cooking calabazón like all in one) Once boiled, with a spoon was taking
entire pulp pumpkin and separating the seeds in a colander and let it drain overnight.
The next morning, and drained, the confit in a pan with about slightly more than 1 / 2 kg of sugar, lemon juice and a little water they had been boiled the day before. And between hour, hour and a half,
already had candied . As I said, it's just turning to go to get rid the sugar and mix well. A gigs go, and that he did not want to get!

So as hard work was done, we immediately got to work side by side. Now we needed for the dough:
(Measurements, as a good mother over 70 years are always approximate, as I say but rather to put eye)

  • 1 kg flour ½

  • 2 tablespoons (but not soup, if not spoon) sugar

  • 2 glasses of water, but anise (guess which )

  • 3 cups of oil (My mother spends a fairly strong flavor oil and you put 1 and 2 olive, sunflower, yet they felt the oil flavor)


Then, in a deep dish, in this case, relatively deep, put flour, sugar and anise, and heat a little oil in a pan, not much, only cogiese temperature for heat rid sugar. As she added the oil carefully I was stirring, until they have thrown all the oil, then, as with the wooden spoon was a little difficult to mix, we gave him first with
hands in the bowl and then kneading on the table. There my mother gave me a masterclass in mixing I believe that I can never overcome. Is it about not having Princess or Thermomix or anything like that.
(It seemed so cool at the end of post and if you are not very well the link I have posted the video that I recorded on the plan crappy photo camera.)
In short, what we were going, once it was well mixed question of going round the cutting pasta and filling of candied pumpkin, is closed, sealed with a fork and place it neatly and without touching the baking sheet. The oven of my mother (that is particular, if) is a gas, is an old kitchen, which further intrigue to the matter, because first you have to put the fire below, once they are made, the fire is lit from above. It has no timer, so that, all I can do is go looking at it, and careful, will not be extinguished in a blink of door. If I remember correctly, were between 10 and 15 minutes on each side. I say, controlled. The fact is they have to be more or less
and . Then he dipped in sugar and are ready to let it cool, fair, and sink his teeth. So on until finished, or pasta or stuffing. In this case as there was very little filler and plenty of pasta decided to make a cake tray Fine, (the so called because they are similar to the cream, the difference is made with oil, not butter, hence the name) and add a Royal little yeast, a pinch single. The short-cut pasta with a is older than me, heart-shaped, and as before, oven, do not burn control, door open, door closed and if I remember correctly they were ready to just under 10 minutes per side.

left us in total about 40 pasta pumpkin cake and 20 fine.

And the toasted seeds with salt and ate them in the afternoon in one sitting.

As I am not impartial, because of course my mother, but I think it's worth wasting a minute to see it.
