…that great way to save left bacon is to freeze it. Lay the row strip about 1/4’’ apart on parchment or wax paper and roll them up. Put the roll in a plastic freezer bag, seal and freeze. Unroll the paper if you need a slice or two of bacon, remove what you need, and freeze the remainder.

Red (dried tomato) pesto potato salad

Monday, August 17th, 2009

Adapted from Fifty favorite recipes potato salad book by Barbara Lauterbach.

I love homemade pesto. No, really. But my pesto is not identical to the real Italian pesto with pine nuts and lot of virgin olive oil. My pesto usually consist of fresh basil leaves (from my backyard garden), toasted almond nuts, Parmesan cheese, some garlic and vegetable oil. Taste of basil and almond only with touch of garlic.  In this time I used almonds too. It’s great tomato pesto with sour taste go well in many sandwiches.

Don’t do this dish if you don’t like cauliflower taste. You smell it. But if you eat cauliflower (like me), you love this mash. The taste a little sweet, but very good.
