| Starting with a base of fresh Marinara sauce...saute onions, garlic, bell peppers and mushrooms, deglaze with apple juice or wine and add the prepared sauce and simmer for 30 mins. This is for the white polenta. |
 |
| Year round perpetual basil in my garden today, flowers all year and attracts lots of wild bees. |
 |
| Fresh Rosemary..like plenty of heat and sunshine |
 |
| Again a marinara base with sauteed zucchini for the eggplant (also own grown and picked this week) and rice gratin |
 |
| White cornmeal boiling with herbs and almond milk, also added olive oil |
 |
| Layers of cooked rice, sauce and cooked eggplant slices topped with grated Parmesan cheese will be baked at clients home |
 |
| The blended Tomato-Bell Pepper soup, topped with ground smoked paprika |
 |
| The polenta cooling, topped with olive oil, will be cut into triangles tomorrow, the client will broil it or saute it at their home |
 |
| Own grown, now sliced and sprinkled with sea salt to remove any bitter juices, Asian eggplants do not need this procedure as they are naturally sweet. |
Hello all, well we have had some more odd weather this week, cold days and mainly sunny and warm, last night more snow fell on local mountains but we in the LA basin just had a cloudy evening.
Last night was cool, mid 50f's and today is a brisk 62F, it is taking ages for my wholewheat sourdough cinnamon-raisin breads to prove for the second time...I hope to have them baked before 4pm!
Also the BEST, easy recipe for Marinara Sauce is in my first book "Recipes For Success" only available on www.amazon/kindle.com but the book and cook properly!
Here are some photos from this week, enjoy.
