Reverse Hump Comal

By
I am not a very gadgety cook, but I do love specialty pots...and I am now quite enamored with a reverse hump comal that my friend had on the grill for his wife's birthday dinner.

A reverse hump comal is a large, flat pot with a raised hump in the center. Meat and tortillas can be seared on the top while sauce simmers in the outer rim.

Mike had beef and chicken braising in stock with spring onions and hot peppers when we arrived for Jenn's 40th birthday dinner...and it was going until long after the sun went down.


Jenn tracked this down in Texas. I think a paella pot still tops my list. Besides, I don't need a reverse hump comal...I just need to invite myself to dinner at Jenn and Mike's!

    Any chance you could track down where that reverse comal was purchased at? I've been looking for one for a while now.

      http://www.texastastes.com/p1574.htm There are two sizes. Not cheap, but worth it if you'll use it, I suppose.

This month the French Winophiles group is looking at affordable wines from Burgundy.  Host Cindy of Grape Experiences wrote: "Burgundy, or Bourgogne, is known for its wines of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir... as well as Aligote, Gamay, Sauvignon, César, Pinot Beurot, Sacy, Melon in lesser quantities. Many of the well-known wines are quite expensive, but there are plenty of values to be found." Read her invitation here. And there won't be a Twitter chat for this event, so you will have to dive into the articles themselves to read about our pairings and findings. Here's the line-up...

You're Invited: Take a (Virtual) Hawaiian Holiday with #FoodNFlix

By
Fall Break, Oahu, October 2017 For June, I am hosting  Food'N'Flix , the movie-watching, food-making group rallied by Heather of  All Roads Lead to the Kitchen . This week, my older son was supposed to graduate from high school and we were supposed to leave on a family vacation to the Big Island. But, as enter our eleventh week of being sheltered in place to flatten the curve of the coronavirus, all of our summer plans were canceled, including this long-planned graduation trip to Hawaii. Boo.

Oahu, October 2017 So for this month's Food'N'Flix, I chose to open up the field and let all of the food bloggers take a (virtual) Hawaiian holiday.  My boys have been to Oahu several times with my parents in recent years as my dad grew up there and wanted to spend some time on the island with his grandsons.
