in lieu of little italy

so now we have a brand spanking new copy of italienisch kochen: neue rezepte aus dem river cafe and last night we had our first experiment with the antipasti section. the photos are terrible of course because the whole thing followed an early evening trip to wohnzimmer, but you can use your imagination. oh! and the guardian has some excerpts from the english version.


1. raw zucchini and rocket with prosciutto and mozzarella
2. grilled aubergine with roasted tomatoes and basil
3. roasted red peppers with capers
4. cucumber, mint, chilli and mascarpone

thrown together with a garlic, olive oil and fresh oregano pizza. mmm.

just to clarify:
my little italy antipasti escapade came at a time when the gas for my stove had yet to be turned on, t-h-e-r-e-f-o-r-e there was a noted lack of items involving any kind of "cooking" assembly.

i clarify this to salvage some notion of esteem for my faux-gourmand ego in the light of your foodie brilliance.

*sniff*

ps - you go girl.

check out the article in the guardian cuz lots of the things they suggest need not be cooked. good for roasty summer days.

actually my favourite thing from last night was the prosciutto-mozzarella-zucchini thing which was all raw baby. well, cured... but raw. heh.
