Dinner tonight (eventually, once I can get my sick kid to bed).

Steak came out pretty good last night (according to me anyway)...

Last night, I made my scratch Alfredo and almost everything was locally sourced: the spinach fettuccine, the sausages, the cream and cheese, and the bread. The tomatoes and onions are imports (its February).





I looked in the fridge tonight and saw that I had some homeless leftover stuff: some pasta, some bacon (also local) from the weekend, etc. I added some broccoli and boobs - snazzy bacon bows for the seasoned chicken, and also made a delicious carbonara. All I did win the broccoli is blanche it and serve it with a little oil.

Ooh, that spinach fettuccine looks great!

It really is. A guy with a tiny stand at the local farmers market makes it fresh daily and runs it into whatever noodle you'd like.

Fresh paste. Noting beats it.

I stared at this like 30 seconds going "Wha...?" until I realized it was a typo and you meant "pasta." I'm an idiot. Sorry.

But you're right. Once you've had fresh pasta in all its infinite variety, you'll never go back to boxes of dry hard spaghetti. Not even in the same food group.

Etymologically, pasta and paste are the same anyway Like pate and pastry, you make pasta by making a paste (feel free to use a pestle )

And top it with pesto (which is paste actually and is also better fresh).

When I was young and stupid I used to try to make pesto with a pestle and mortar. Young, stupid and time rich.

I made fresh pasta once and it didn't taste much better than shop night stuff tbh. Just flour and eggs innit. Next time I do so I shall season it, because seasoning is good.
