winter cookery.

it's snowing. again. another foot of snow is predicted by the end of the day tomorrow.

seriously. this is getting a bit ridiculous.

with all the snow and cold and stuff, i've been cooking things that only get cooked in winter. a chicken has been roasted, the meat is in the fridge, and stock is in the freezer (i put off writing the paper this time, so i actually got stock).

and now lasagne is in the oven. lasagne is one of those dishes that i really just can't cook in the summer. i don't know if it's the hour in the oven, or just the heaviness of the noodles and cheese. unfortunately, it means making it with dried herbs, but hey. nothing's perfect. i have my own meatless recipe that i made up a while ago. maybe i'll make this next time. if i can talk him into eating it.
