New Endeavors.

Parma Rosa.
One of my favorite things to order at an Italian place is Parma Rosa. Jillian's dad came over to fix some stuff and I made it for dinner - turned out well! A traditional spicy dish, Perfect! Penne base, I heated up some olive oil in a sauce pan with a few whole cloves of garlic. Then added a whole chopped up hot house tomato, a roma tomato, a red bell pepper, a red jalapeno, and some spices. I slow cooked that for about 45 minutes, stirring and mashing it all up occasionally. The salad is spinach, romaine, and ice berg, with some tomatoes and carrots. I've got this weird spirally tool that i just spin around in the sauce and it pulls out the skins. It's awesome. I then added about 1/2 cup of tiny chopped carrots, some cream, slow simmer that for a little bit until creamy. Viola!!

We got this great deal at Whole Foods, Romano Rinds from the wheel, like $2.50. Small grate over everything toss the rinds, really cheap fresh cheese. Dressing for the salad, some crispy garlic bread on some extra fancy bread. Thanks!
