Okay okay, so I haven’t posted my blog in a while and certainly nothing serious or deep lately.
Need to find a way make more free time. Why is it work has to consume so many hours and things like bicycling and hiking get lost in the shuffle.
I got in a workout last night for the first time in a week and whilst it felt really good to be in the gym again my mind was half listening to Peaches (don’t ask) on my iPod and half thinking about how to satisfy a present and immediate carbs craving.
Enter farinata. For some reason, possibly related to the chilly weather this week, I’ve been craving carbs.
After working out I decided, well actually while I was working out, to fire up the oven. Farinata is great naked but I had a taste for something on top and had some beautiful anchovies in the fridge, as well as a small block of parmigiano. Mmmm, salty.
Decided to pre-warm the anchovies while the farinata baked, then threw them on top at the very end. Tossed a tiny bit of the cheese on to and flipped on the broiler for just a minute to finish it.
Here’s what it looks like after mixing the ingredients and pouring it into the pan to bake:
Opened a bottle of wine, sliced the farinata into strips and settled into a post workout snack.
UPDATE: Also had c craving for cheese balls, here’s the result:
