I will be making gorditas and Spanish rice. Not sure the other side dish yet.
Spinach & Mushroom Pizza
We finally had the beef tartar. I chopped it by hand. I got two small blisters. I don't think I'll be doing that again. The meat was delicious, but the meal was a bit disappointing.
I just had the most wonderful, delicious experiencee!
Every year I look in vain for those little baby pumpkins.]
Finally after about six years, I found a net bag with 5 little pumpkins. The kind you would use to decorate.
6 years ago someone gave me a small adorable pumpkin, not as little as these.
I was hungry and pierced it just to the seed chamber, then threw it in the oven at 350° whole for as long as it took until it was cooked through and mushy tender.
I've wanted to experience that treat again, but had to wait 6 years.
These cuties are pretty small, but baked at 360° for an hour it was the same melt in the mouth wonderful experience.
I halved it when it was cooked, and scooped out the seeds, added salt and a lot of butter. YUMMY!
For dinner I'll have another serving of that delicious meat and spinach lasagna I made yesterday. Or, spaghetti with the rest of the meat and spaghetti sauce left over.
Oh boy! I still have 4 more baby pumpkins!!!
That's really hard to say. I was trying to do a Danish fusion sort of thing. Danes make a "løvemad" (lion food) open faced sandwich. I have enjoyed that on rugbrød (heavy all rye bread), but maybe it was the German bread that's just a little different. The Danish one is a slice of the bread, lettuce, the meat, an egg yoke in an onion ring or two, capers, freshly grated horseradish, and maybe some chopped beets. I put the meat on our plates. I put out the grated horseradish, chopped shallots, capers, lettuce, hot sauce, Worcestershire, a jar of grated beets and horseradish (which had more heat and horseradish flavour than the fresh stuff), raw egg yoke, homemade mayo, and seedy and smooth Dijon. We tried out different combinations and some were better than others, but none of it "popped".I'm sad to hear that Taxi. Can you share why it was disappointing? I was really looking forward to a good report.
