Hehe. Makes total sense. My mouth would be watering except I just GORGED on lentil soup, then peach…grunt or something. You put them in a pan with some sugar and lemon juice, then drop the sweet dumpling stuff on top and simmer til it’s done.

THEN I used up the fresh mozzarella with more of a caprese salad and I ate the whole damn thing.

hello! thanks for sharing the recipe, and thanks for visiting my little blog

as for the resting question…
honestly, since i eat them hot off the skillet, i can’t notice anything. basically, i think fresh-not-properly-rested tortillas have to taste better than not-fresh-but-properly-rested tortillas. does that make sense?

and when they’re covered with cheese or salsa, it’s even harder to notice! my mouth is already watering just writing this.

Baingan Bharta is an Indian dish- spicy roasted eggplant tomato stew. Yummy, but too much of a pian to make from scratch. I have the recipe in a book that is around here somewhere….

I am considering creating a website called “Not-so-Shiny, actually rather Dingy, Cooking.”

For all my slap-dash, Oh crap I need to make something fast dinners. For a really picky
person.

For instance, last night:

1 Box o’ Swad Baingan Bharta
1 can o’ garbanzo beans (most organic you can find.)
1 diced onion
some garlic to taste
canola oil to cook onion and garlic
Just enuf’ water to keep it moving in the pan.
Enuf fresh cilantro to make it colorful and more tasty and bright!

Serve with potatoes, Nan bread (or some facsimile) or rice, depending on your friends peculiar preferences, allergies and/or proclivities.

I didn’t realize that there were turning the Song of Ice and Fire series into TV shows. I wonder who they’ll get to play Tyrion. We are huge fans of the Jordan series and can’t wait for the next book to come out (though we are worried about how it will be since Jordan won’t be the author).

Anyway, the whole wheat tortillas look great. I will need to try them.

Whole wheat can be fussy to work with — KAF often adds a touch of orange juice to its recipes, for one example, to neutralize the tannins in the whole wheat — but these tortillas came together in a snap, which makes me happyface. By the way, the book also says the tortillas can be made with spelt flour just as easily. I just didn’t put it in the recipe since I haven’t tried that yet.

Well, since I’ve made many of flour and corn tortillas already, I can easily see myself making (more) of them. I’ve yet to add whole wheat to my tortillas, though. I have been playing to try it. Now that I’ve seen your post, I will definitely do it soon.

Dance With Dragons is slated to be published in September, last I heard. However, Martin’s blog is a tad worry-inducing. I fear he’s having more fun jetting around to conventions than writing. Well, I guess basically what I’m doing is complaining about a gift that he’s giving my eyes from his brain, so I should just relax, appreciate his talent and be patient!

I can’t resist optimism that the book will come out on time, so I’m currently re-reading the series. Who knew the rout at King’s Landing was basically all Edmure’s fault a thousand miles away?
