Ok - nothing new tonight...

I was going to do the blackened catfish tonight but am missing some of the required spices for the blackening shake. They are supposed to be here tomorrow since I ordered what I needed last week. Fresh spices, pretty good prices. http://www.thespicehouse.com is where I get my stuff.

I made a Jalapeno cornbread tonight though. It was a good thing to test. Muffin method for this bread and I need a more accurate scale. It was alright, but I wasn't happy with the flavor or the texture. It was too...cake-ish and needs to be less so. The flavor was bland. I could taste the jalapenos, but after that it was not impressive. More work to do there before I share with everyone.

I learned how to make pasta from an Italian chef tonight. I want a pasta machine. Now. Yesterday in fact. That and basil pesto...fresh, that stuff is amazing. I will never buy a jar again.

I am out. Thanks for the comments to those stopping in.
