The better my mood, the better my cooking, and the better the taste. Which in turn makes me happy. |

Cooking Mexican style for Mrs Spinkles tonight. I hired a Jeovah's Witness (the drummer is a scientologist) band to play la Cucaracha in 7 different styles. I hoped for dancing cockroaches but I can't find or buy any. |

Because I'm not quadraspazzed on a life glug I'm going to walk over and get spicy samosas and yogurt sauce for lunch, me. Maybe a tabbouleh on the side. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
much better than the plain pasta i'll have for dinner |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
do you make everything by yourself or you buy samosas from an asian shop and tabbouleh from a palestinian one fleetmouse? i know yougurt sauce is sold at the supermarket |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
they sell hummus at the supermarket down here, i tried to buy it once but it was shitter than the shittest shit, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I get premade samosas and tabbouleh from an Iranian (?) grocery near me, and make sauce with balkan style yogurt from the same place (add mint, lemon, etc). They have food from various countries. Its the only place I've found fresh turmeric. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Hummus is usually either too bland or too sour. I've tried making my own by blending chick peas and stuff and it was OK. I think it as missing the tahini. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont have the knowledge of the spices but i love everything spiced. my favourite is cumin. pity i cant cook, nor do i have an 'ethinc' shop near me to buy tabbouleh and hummus like i was in hebron again. yougurt sauce is outstanding. |

I've stepped up my game since I learned about adding cinnamon and allspice as well as cumin. Works really well, along with diced onion, in ground beef or lamb meatballs. Oh and throw some za'atar in the yogurt sauce, you can dip anything in it and it will taste great. |

i have to eat what i'm given but it was vegetable kiev with wedges and peas tonight, nice. bit of encona sauce on the side fer chilli dippin', then blueberry crumble with custard for afters |

ive seen the moroccan woman that lives with me doing the ground beef with spices and onion as you said, i was eating it with my eyes, with try to do it to variate from the three burgers (just the beef, not the sandwich) i eat a week. nice 1. i dont like cinnamon unfortunately, she puts it in coffee zaatar in yogurt sauce, noted √ |
||||||||
|

|

definitely good food is not only about doing it, its about doing it good, and that good is the mood. |

heres another secret, the best apples you will eat in your life come from new zealand imho. im not easily satisfied. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
you can actually eat the whole apple, even the core |

goddamn belbman that sounds like a good feed tbh |

yeah I'm more of a cocoa in the coffee guy myself. If you don't care for cinammon, mix some allspice in with the cumin, you can take that in a jerk spice direction. Try and leave out the cinammon, though it kind of disappears in with the other spices anyways. I put extra cumin and a splash of vinegar in there. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it says that allspice too is used in palestinian cuisine, i'll check if they have both jerk and allspice in my supermarket and report back. But first i wanna try ground beef with onion and cumin as the ingredients seem to be less obscure to find. I use balsamic vinegar for my vinegar needs, i put it in all the vegetables i eat basically. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Allspice, red pepper flakes, canola oil i have to check if they have them, not sure. Maybe ill change the canola oil with extra virgin olive oil if they have all the spices. One question, the recipe lists all the spices, but where's the jerk? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
theres no trace of any of the spices mentioned in my supermarket |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im will check tomorrow at the mall as i have to go there to buy dog food |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
don't forget to weigh your dog beforehand so you can make sure the food is a match. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
they had cumin at the mall but it was in small leaves, not in powder, so i didnt buy. they had also dried onion on the spices shelf, i was tempted to buy it since i wouldnt know how to cook a fresh one into the ground meat but i didnt buy that either. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
man, that is a sad grocery store :-/ just dice a fresh onion, chop it up real small and mix it in there, dried onion my god what are you an astronaut |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||

I made a vegetable gratin yesterday. Potatoes, sweet potatoes, Swiss char, fenil, brocoli, and cauliflower. Two small whole onions in as well. Cooked in bouillon before grilled in the oven in bechamel sauce with grated cheese on top. The only downer is for it to really work you need to respect that each vegetable needs a different time to cook when you boil or steam them first. It was tasty but I fucked up and made far too much. I realized this morning I forgot the dish in the oven (not on) and forgot to store the rest in the fridge in tupperwares like I usually do. Waste. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i put some pepperoni and some 3-band cheese in a tomato-onion wrap and ate it, took five minutes. there are flecks of stray cheese about the plate, though. waste |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
waste for a night in the oven? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, it didn't look pleasant. It's rather warm in my flat. I'm sorry if I offended you. I try not to waste stuff. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im not offended. i would have eaten it for you if i was at your place |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think I was influenced by my wife. I won't do it again. I will make you some RD special gratin someday. |
