2013 - Week 24 Cooking Results

Capellini Capricciosi

So when I was making this, I got the impression that the angel hair pasta wasn't enough so I added some (quarter to a third pound) of leftover fettuccine.  After I dumped the capellini into the pasta sauce, I knew I was mistaken, but it was to late, the fettuccine was already in the pot cooking.  Even so, this was actually a really good and simple combination.

Italian Sausage (Crooked Gap), Leeks, and tomato Spaghetti

This turned out great.  A simple combination of mostly local ingredients.  It made for a quick tasty meal.

Ricotta Omelets (p44 Bon Appetit June 2013)

Yeah I didn't want to go out in the rain or the wet ground to harvest chives and basil, so I had an egg sandwich (with some of the leftover sliders meat) and Shannon had leftover pasta. 

Crooked Gap Bratwurst

Bombay Sliders with Garlic Curry Sauce

These turned out really good.  The combination of the meat mixture and the sauce made for a delicious dinner.  I added a bit of Adelegger  (Bavarian Mountain Cheese) to make it a truly global meal.  Nice meal.

Keema Matar  (vaguely following)

I don't remember what brought this about, I think I was listening to the Splendid Table and they talked about it, or one of the other food shows I listen to, but I googled about and found that recipe and though hey that sounds good.  I admit, I didn't have minced mutton, but I did have some ground lamb, and it ended up tasting pretty good.  I added more peas, less meat, and used the spices I had on hand.  It came out pretty good.  It probably would've worked on Pitas as well, kind of like the mustard greens for last week.  I will be making this again at some point.
