For some reason I decided I should make my puff pastry from scratch (even though I've never made it before). So I have just begun what is going to be a long process  :shocked:

Oh my word! So so so yummy!
Took longer than I thought with making the pastry but so worth waiting to eat until after 11 for this.

Impressive. And you don't find the garlic too overpowering?

I would say if you don't like garlic you wouldn't like it. It is very "garlicky" but it tastes only as "garlicky" as a dish which is quite "garlicky" in the normal way. The garlic cloves are really quite sweet. I would definitely cook it again. :biggrin:

Interesting. I've never been keen on whole chunks of garlic, but I very well might like your dish...it almost looks caramelized.

It seems like the garlic challenge has scared everyone else away! LOL

I've been very curious about medieval pottage since seeing it in a history program. This seems like the ideal time to give it a go.  :cheer:

I'm thinking of doing a vegetarian chicken soup with seitan.

I have a pretty good recipe for pasta fagioli and red pepper soup if anyone is interested. The latter is super easy, delicious, and only requires four ingredients - broth, small egg bow macaroni, roasted red peppers, and sliced Parmesan cheese.

You know, I have a little book of Devonshire recipes that contains Teddy Soup which I've wanted to make for a while as well. I vow to make something from that cookbook for one of the challenges.

A bit off topic as this week is soups, but last night I made blackened tilapia to try to rectify my tilapia mishap from last week and it came out amazing. All you do is rub both sides of the fish with a mixture of paprika, cayenne, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and oregano. The recipe called for brown sugar as well but I forget it and it didn't even need it. Coupled with a Mediterranean salad of cous cous, olives, and tomato, it was sublime.
