food → Food
So having my own kitchen is awesome, possibly even more awesome than the house itself. Only that doesn’t really work because no matter how you slice it the kitchen is always part of the house. But anyways.
I’ve got a couple buddies that like cooking as much or probably more than I do. The most logical thing to do in this case is to have little mini cooking parties. They aren’t really parties but I can think up a suitable word while typing this up. I’ve had about 3 or 4 of these things in the last two weeks but for some reason I never posted anything about them. Well I need a food category so here we go. I’ll post the first one that we did. John or The Pope as he is called made a dish that used octopus, squid, mussels, and a bunch of herbs and veggies. It was amazing. I took pictures and have them up on the pictures section. These pictures or the words I am using to describe it do not do it justice. And this is not something that was made by following a recipe this was just Pope and I throwing things together and bouncing ideas back and forth. I helped but it was pretty much Pope that did the most of the work, this time.
I don’t have a recipe for you because well, I hardly ever use recipes and neither does Pope. I didn’t even catch all the ingredients for it, but in the future if I get a recipe together from something or whatever I’ll post it here as well. All I got for this is buy a bunch of veggies, and mussels and squid and octopus. Cook the veggies down into a broth with a bunch of herbs and spices, then add the octopus with the squid and mussels. Pope had the idea of stuffing the octopus but in the end that doesn’t work all that well because of how much the octopus shrinks. It spat it all out. Cook it until it’s done.
Yeah I know great instructions, whatever.
