Lemon curd is a quintessentially English treat. It reminds me of having tea at Harrod's in London when I was in the 5th grade. It’s delicious slathered over scones with cream or baked in a fruit tart.
Legend has it that during World War II, American soldiers in Rome would bring their Italian friends eggs and bacon and ask them to make a pasta dish, thus becoming pasta alla carbonara.
The sun has finally decided to show itself here in Seattle, which means the barbecue has been hauled out of the garage and has settled back into its usual spot on the patio. At last. What better way to wrap up a nice sunny afternoon than to throw something tasty down on the grill?
You can't have tapas without having a good sausage or two, and the two that top my list are cantipalitos and morcilla.
I have a deep love for cheese. Actually, it borders on an addiction, but (so far) I am able to live my life normally.
