Here is the Simply Recipes update for jorgehumbertocoelho.cooking@blogger.com There are 3 new posts in "Simply Recipes" Mushroom SugoMy dad is the kind of dad who will notice we aren't doing something to his standards and then just take over. (Insert growly voice.) "The recipe says mince, not finely chop, but mince. This isn't minced." I'm happy to report that my father is now in charge of mincing around here. (Was this all part of cunning plan on my side? I'll never tell.) What we were making that precipitated the great mincing event this week was one of our absolutely favorite sauces for pasta or polenta, a Genoese mushroom sugo or mushroom sauce.

The flavor of sweet white peaches is delicate and doesn't hold up well to cooking.

Unlike their sturdier brown and green lentil cousins, when cooked, red lentils quickly fall apart into a smooth mush-like consistency. So, if you get a late morning hankering for some lentils, you can easily whip up a batch in time for lunch. This red lentil dal recipe comes by way of my friend Kerissa Barron, who spent several months living and traveling through India. Earlier in the summer Kerissa and I pored over her handwritten recipe notes from her host family for some of the recipes she liked the most. This was one of her favorites; she ate it almost every day. Continue reading "Red Lentil Dal" » | ||||
