Letter Asking For Contributions For Wedding Gift

Nishimè Cabbage Cake

The transformation of the debris is an important thing for someone like me, does not see the freezer in a good eye. Knowing how to rework the tired, the food is not important if you ever try not to throw anything away.
Obviously this is a recipe a bit 'long if you plan on starting from scratch and produce it, but if you divide it into two different days is definitely shorter and healthier.


For Nishimè


1 cabbage 100 gr.
raisins savory and marjoram Salt



For the dough 300 g flour (half full and half refined)
15 grams of fresh yeast
One tablespoon of corn oil
Water Salt to taste


In addition :

100 grams of tofu Soy sauce toasted black sesame


First clean the cabbage and cut into squares (cubes variant of the cabbage).
In a deep pan put a finger water, cabbage, raisins, washed and herbs. Bake for 15-20 minutes in pan closed. The flame can be as high as the temperature of cooking, or until the formation of steam, then lower the heat and started counting the minutes.
When the cabbage is tender salt and let stand for 10 minutes.

nishimè The cabbage (or cooking without oil) can be eaten like that and maybe even used to make the cake at your next meal.

Dissolve in half a glass of warm water the yeast and let rest until it begins to make bubbles. Then add it to flour, oil, any other water and mix.
There must be a smooth ball that let rise 5 minutes to few hours.
Divide the dough into two unequal parts, the largest about two thirds of the total. Roll out the dough first with the largest portion of dough and line a baking pan previously greased and floured. Prick with a fork. Stuffed with nishimè, removing excess water, tofu (crumbled with the fingers) and sprinkle the surface of toasted sesame seeds. Season with a little 'soy sauce. Roll out the pastry and other
close circling the edge of the cake.
Bake at 180 degrees for about 3 minutes, or until the surface will not be golden.

What Does Glittery Black Jelly Bracelets Mean ?

The city that smells of coriander and cinnamon



"The city that smells of coriander and cinnamon
Marie Fadel and Rafik Schama, published by Garzanti
, is a book straordianario.
AND 'the opportunity di compiere un viaggio nella
fascinosa Damasco senza mettervi piede.
Rafik Schami è in esilio e non può più
gironzolare per la sua amata Damasco,
e non può quindi scrivere da solo il libro
tanto desiderato.
La sorella  Marie decide di aiutarlo e,
per telefono, gli descrive le vie, i giardini, i
mercati, le botteghe, i profumi e i colori.
All'inizio del libro c'è una cartina con il
centro storico di Damasco.
Camminiamo virtualmente e entriamo in
case di parenti e amici degli autori.
Scopriamo storie di famiglie lontane,
entriamo nelle loro cucine, ci vengono
svelate le ricette e veniamo assorbiti
from a city full of history and traditions.

I particularly liked the chapter where you go suk
to discover the most popular spices in Syria. When I went to Istanbul

are literally mad with happiness in the Grand Bazaar
because the smells and colors of
spices were intoxicating and evocative.
I've got a great desire to go to Damascus
, this book has made me
family in terms of historical, artistic and culinary
.
I find delicious recipes and valuable
contained in each chapter that are the legacy of a
family and a people.
Each recipe is accompanied by una storia
vera ed avvincente.

"Damasco non misura il tempo con i giorni,
i mesi, gli anni, ma con gli imperi che ha
visto nascere, prosperare, e andare in
rovina.
E' un prototipo dell'immortalità."
Mark Twain

Wedding Seating Board Examples With Seating Chart

found love tortellini



Just today I read in one breath
collection of short stories published by Katia Brentani Edigio.
These short stories, but intense.
I found Katia Brentani writer, the festival of
Mangiarlibri Castelmaggiore (Bo). His
, sono storie di donne di oggi e di ieri,
che portano nel cuore le stesse aspirazioni
gli stessi sogni, pur vivendo una realtà intrisa
di limiti, privazioni, maltrattamenti.
In questi racconti la forza delle donne prende il
sopravvento e la parola che rieccheggia in tutti i
racconti è libertà.
Il racconto più emblematico è quello che da il
titolo al libro, "couscous e tortellini", appunto.
Due donne culturalmente distanti, religiosamente
opposte trovano semplicemente un punto d'incontro
nella fuga da uomini violenti e inutili.
Una, Maria prepara mirabilmente i suoi Fatima tortellini
the other hand its
delicious couscous.
Their men, alcoholics and violent
and perhaps even more desperate, the
push to the limit and then toward freedom. The
Brentani writes of brave women, strong-willed
that can achieve all
what they want and know how to sacrifice for
achieve a goal.
A book of great sensitivity and timeliness.

Happy reading and be heard!

What Is The Best Red Dot For A Handgun

Widow, The Ghost and the secret of the extreme Pacchera




Gaetano Cappelli's book "The widow, and the secret of the Holy
Pacchera the extreme "published by Marsilio
is a book full of humor and very witty.
The protagonist is Dario Villalta, a gallery with
passion, cultivated as a teenager, for widows.
Dario is found to treat contemporary art,
that indeed the dislike and would prefer to
long as the Renaissance.
At one point appears Vera Gallo, busty
widow of the south appears to be in possession of a statue of
Mantegna, the Holy precisely.
With a thousand subterfuges, Dario
now enamored of the widow, is organizing a 'secret auction for millionaires.
The second part of the book, however, is concentrated sulla
cucina di un albergo pluristellato di Capri
(sede dell'asta) dove le pietanze sono
sublimemente preparate da Mariasofia Madrasca.
Dall'arte visiva si passa all'arte culinaria.
Nel libro poi si mettono in gioco altri personaggi
che hanno tutti un ruolo importante nella storia
come il psicoanalista Aaron Kaminsky, il titolare
della Ticoart Carmine Palomino, l'oligarca russo
Alexander Dudorov e lo chef imbroglione Elio
di Ilio.
Sulla trama non voglio raccontarvi altro, vorrei
sottolineare invece che in questo libro vengono
sviscerate le mie più grandi passioni: l'arte e la
cucina.
Per questo why you recommend it as reading
sometimes spicy, peppery, lively and fun.
do not expect to discover the secret of
paccheri extreme ...
