Where to start? It has been our first cooking weekend since going on holidays.. As well as the potato bread seen earlier in this thread there was:


Our source for beef is now pasture raising pork as well. Bought a butt roast and made hot Italian sausage. Half went to Sunday's meal and the other half will make two batches of ribollita.




My other contribution to tonight's meal was lasagne noodles.


Mrs. K's five cheese lasagne hot form the oven. It'll be all nice and square tomorrow but today it just wants to relax.





While all that was going on, this:



Honey cured smoked, fully cooked duck....you know, like ham but much more ducky. Yes, it is that colour.

Superb work Hank. Now, the lasagne raises an interesting point: some like it sloppy; I say it's better next day after it's firmed up. Ideally it would be something between I guess.

I love the big sloppy mess of the first day. On the first day. Otherwise I infinitely prefer this:



Which is today's lunch.

That's a good layer of cheese.

Mrs K used- fresh mozzarella, aged mozarella, romano, reggiano and ricotta.

I see why you married her.

That looks a bit healthier at least.

A little overcooked, but not bad!

I love mushrooms as well, but I'm not brave enough to pick them in the wild!
