... This is the dilemma. But I made my choice I: Be!
Someone rightly say "TSE, 'N word!"
And not a word you could explain what it means and that is why I welcome the theme of the contest of Helen, Edo ergo sum! and use it to shorten the answer: a recipe that represents me, I have it!
One of those very old date, which in other times I did my , modify it a little, just as much because they better reflect, whereas rose many years and I too am a little changed!
This is my good old potato soufflé, which on this occasion I have revisited and improved.
I added some ingredients to the basic ones, I made one or two replacements and I put a bit of color, because the move the same thing, in fact, it occurred to me: the base made from potatoes, has been enriched with of Jerusalem artichokes, a much more refined taste, for life within us brings its innovations, sometimes joyful and sometimes painful, and when they finally come to join us, their particularity makes us stronger, full and rich in , unique. When years ago we put
cheese, I chose the mozzarella, I was young and unaware, but today I choose the smoked cheese, I find it has more personality ... and I prefer smoked, because the taste of the dense smoke has in it a hint of strength. The ham has remained so, I find it a classic "comfort", it gives you that confidence that you feel happy on the move ...
and a hint of color, you do not find that there is also good? A nice red. Remember the love that his presence alone is enough to bring a smile even in difficult times. In my life there's a lot!
Last but not least, now that I grew up, which are large, the sacred fire of 'Essence is felt, then on my plate there is also good herb, because knowing how to use, in food as in life, they make things more sparkling and special ...
And here's the latest version of my soufflé potatoes.
I think represent me well, because today is how I feel: solid, simple limits of the rustic, but with all that research, a bit 'of the smoke that made my difficult path, but I also made very strong, with a touch of joy that allows me to "be" in the joys and difficulties ...
... and toast with Shakespeare!
