I hadn't made tamale pie in absolutely ages, so it was high time. Extremely delicious. 🍜🍽️

Out for dinner tonight, so lunch was this rather nice salad. Blueberries, pear and blue cheese go remarkably well together, and the walnuts really tie it all together. 🥗🍐🫐 🍜🍽️

I've had this cookbook for less than a week, and I have already made the black cardamom smothered pork chops, which were proclaimed "a winner!" at dinner tonight. Many more things to try! The cumin-drizzled apple pie...the Tellicherry buttermilk biscuits...the vivid tomato and cheese pie... 🍜

Good morning BlueSky! I made yet another dutch baby pancake for weekend #breakfast. This one has cold smoked pork cutlet (ham-like), Vintage Bruton Beauty cheddar, minced red onion and minced jalapeño. The batter was flavoured with mustard powder, onion granules, and white pepper. 🍜🍽️🥚

It's pretty tasty! Not too sweet. Very fragile texture, though, so a bit messy to eat. The white chocolate glaze was a bit thin, would make it thicker next time. 🍜🍽️

Today was a lot of little things going wrong. Not earth-shattering, just annoying. The last one turned out okay though: I meant to buy milk to make the biscuit top of my chicken pot pie... turns out I actually bought cream. Fortunately I had some kefir, so I used that and it worked really well! 🍽️🍜

Stopped eating to take a picture of the flakiness of this pie crust. It's held up beautifully in the freezer for longer than it ought. Crust recipe is from The Pie Room cookbook by Calum Franklin. I will definitely use it again! 🍽️🍜

Roughly a third of a beef and Guinness individual pie. You can see how flaky the crust is. Beef and carrot pieces are prominently falling out onto the plate.

One thing about going to Malmö Opera is that you can book a fun little sandwich for the intermission! When you arrive at your table it is waiting for you, so there's no wasted time in a queue.

Open faced shrimp and egg sandwich, positively overloaded with hand-peeled shrimp, accompanied by slices of cucumber, a cherry tomato, a lemon wedge, and garnished with parsley on a white plate on a white table, with a glass of white wine. There is also some flatware on a pedestrian looking napkin made of brown recycled paper.

I'm always thrilled to plate something this pretty, although now I see I could have addedtwo more rose-cut tomato halves. 🍽️🍜 My mom would always ask, "Is there another vegetable that could go on the plate?" which is what gave me the idea for the tomato in the first place.

Georgian feast night: Chicken satsivi, Svaneti potatoes, peach & tarragon salad, cucumber and tomato salad with red onion, Imerulian Khachapuri, & a churchkhela. We had this with a flinty orange Georgian wine. Satsivi is very difficult to photograph well & mine is a bit thicker than it should be.

Chicken satsivi shares a large oval platter with Svaneti potatoes; a shallow teal-coloured bowl holds a peach and tarragon salad, and its twin holds a cucumber and tomato salad with red onion; in the distance are four wedges of Imerulian Khachapuri, and a plate holding a churchkhela.

A bottle of Karhuri Georgian orange wine, with some poured into a Romer wine glass beside it.
