Day 215/365 – What’s Cooking?

A few nice cookbook images I found:

Day 215/365 – What’s Cooking?

Real men wear aprons ; )

This week’s self-portrait is a shot of me taken from the perspective of my oven. I wasn’t actually baking anything today. I meant to go to the grocery store but it started raining yet again, so I just had some leftover cold pizza for dinner.

I enjoy cooking and especially baking. It’s kind of like edible carpentry. You start out with some raw parts that aren’t good for much by themselves, measure precisely, combine them carefully, and you eventually wind up with something really good. But unlike the case with a table or bookshelf, you can eat the final product.

I’m pretty good at baking cakes, pies, muffins, and quick breads, but I don’t know how to make yeast breads. The whole kneading and rising and punching it down thing seems awfully complicated, so I just cheat and use a bread machine. One of these days I’d like to take a bread baking class though so I could learn how to do it the old-fashioned way.

The other thing I can’t bake is cookies. I’ve tried and tried but I always make a mess of them. They invariably end up either over or underdone. Cookies are my baking kryptonite.

Cooking an artichoke: Trimming the leaves.
recipes
Image by Thomas Cizauskas
Select a fresh artichoke. (The top leaves of a fresh artichoke will squeak a bit when pinched.)

Use a large, sharp knife and cut off the top third of the artichoke. Peel off the smallest bottom leaves, and use scissors to trim the sharp thorn tips off each of the remaining leaves. Use the knife to cut the stem off close to the bulb, making the cut as straight as possible so the artichoke can easily sit upright without tipping over.

Step 1. Trimming the leaves.
Step 2. Simmer upside-down
Step 3. Simmer right-side up.
Step 4. Eat the leaves.
Step 5. Preparing the choke.
Step 6. Removing the ‘hair.’
Step 87: Eating the choke.

he solemn brood of care Plod on, and each one as before shall chase His favorite phantom; yet all these shall leave Their mirth and their employments, and shall come And make their bed with thee. As the long train Of ages glides away, the sons of men— The youth in lifes green spring, and he who goes In the full strength of years, matron and maid, And the sweet babe, and the gray-headed man— Shall one by one be gathered to thy side, By those, who in their turn shall follow them. So live that when thy summons comes to joinThe innumerable caravan that movesTo that mysterious realm, where each shall takeHis chamber in the silent halls of death,Thou go not, like the quarry-slave at night,Scourged to his dungeon, but, sustained and soothedBy an unfaltering trust, approach thy graveLike one who wraps the drapery of his couchAbout him, and lies down to pleasant dreams.

The Childrens Hot Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (Bom February 27, 1807; Died March1882) Between the dark and the daylight,When the light is beginning to lower. Comes a pause in the days occupationsThat is known as the Childrens Hour. I hear in the chamber above me The patter of little feet,The sound of a door that is opened, And voices soft and sweet. From my study I see in the lamplight,Descending the broad hall stair, Grave Alice and laughing Allegra,And Edith with golden hair. A whisper, and then a silence; Yet I know by their merry eyes,They are plotting and planning together To take me by surprise. A sudden rush from the stairway,A sudden raid from the hall! By three doors left unguardedThey enter my castle wall! They climb up into my turret, Oer the arms and back of my chair: If I try to escape, they surround me;They seem to be everywhere. They almost devour me with kisses,Their arms about me entwine, Till I think of the Bishop of BingenIn his Mouse-Tower on the Rhine. Page Ninety-
