Following up on the Colatura di Alici episode – if you should happen to be so bourgeois as to possess a girolle, try serving it with a shaving of Tête de Moine on top: it does for CdA what parm reg does for other pastas. Independent confirmation appreciated.View attachment 300017

Head start on Valentine's day candies for my wife to accompany our trip to Vegas on the weekend.

Chocolate covered Nuts & Chews.

Base: mix of almonds, peanuts, cashews, burnt butter Carmel bits, with 70% cacao.

They will be finished in two ways, described below.

Pic 1: I had to make a makeshift double boiler from a pan, since I can't find my bowl.

Pic 2: grinding cardamom.

Pic 3: dark cacao base, creating the clusters to set, before they are finished by dipping in milk chocolate.

Pic 4: finished with milk chocolate on top. Espresso sprinkled on some. While others got ground cardamom and Murray river salt flakes.

A manly squeeze of lime (calamansi if you can) balances the sauce of oil / bouillabaisse.
