Today was a day for leftover cholent, homemade english muffin-oids with earth balance, peanut butter & strawberry jam, pupusas with loroco, refritos, salsa and curtido and later, chocolate pudding. Not the most balanced diet today, but damn tasty.
Cholent was more magnificent today than on the first day. I think I might have to go crazy with caraway soon. That means I'll have to have the cumin surgically removed from my spice-shaking hand, I guess.
The muffin-oids are best when the top is visually divided into thirds by the careful application of EB, PB & SJ. It's like a little BMW logo of delicousness. Then you can get a bite of butter and jam, or of peanut butter and jam, or of peanut butter and butter. I'm partial to the first two combos. I usually don't use EB on my toast, or much of anything, really. I don't miss butter much, since I was always more likely to cook with it than spread it.
Pupusas deserve an entry of their own, but the basic note is that curtido is the ingenue that upstages the masa harina stars. Ah, curtido, the true yearning of my veggie-munching soul.
As for making pudding, it's just a nice thing to do for your BFF, if not your waistline.
