Spiral mashers/ whisks are truly wondrous.


I don't even use potato flakes for bread. Just. Can't. Do. It.

Gnoccchi boiled then pan-fried with arugula, indoor mustard greens and outdoor arugula sprouts, crisped serrano ham. Cheese about to be added.

Powdered mash potatoes are good for 2 things: camping and making potato bread.

Raza: get a spiral masher. It's like a magic wand, make great mashed in a snap.

Hmm....I'll look into it.

I'm just joshing.

I've never had powdered mash actually.

Powdered can be surprisingly bearable. I used to eat it in high school, when I was obsessed with mashed potatoes and my mom never made them.

I love the adjectives (adverbs?) used nowadays - 'hand cut artisan sourdough adorned with lashings of pan fried aged unsmoked streaky bacon, with shredded crispy romaine lettuce, sliced beef tomato and homemade tomato relish'.

BLT then?

Guilty as charged.

That gnocchi has a beautiful golden colour: might there be a touch of saffron or similar in the mix?

No, that is just from pan frying. I didn't want brown, but I did want to change the exterior texture. Butter and olive oil and a pretty low temp.

I should make gnocchi. Never had good gnocchi.

[Henry Krinkle]

Good gnocchi is wonderful. Bad gnocchi is a gluey horrible hunk of starch.

Geoffbot classic - pulled pork and Mac cheese (with tiny macaroni)
