What I ate today - the food thread

I finally got around to making the intense ginger biscuits seeing as I’ve been planning to since you put the recipe up. I didn’t roll mine out or use the cutter to make them nice and neat as yours as I consider that about as useless as ironing clothes.



MINE,I basically I had them for lunch, but I had to stop eating them otherwise they would’ve become dinner as well:

Agree, ultimately the taste test is more important than the look. (Although some photos on here make me drool and want to do the taste test 😉)
 
A small window of dry weather in the Adelaide Hills, unusual for August, let me out to fire up the 340 wood oven. Whacked in a bit of meat for the week but also we got a couple of pizzas done. First was artichoke, olive, anchovies and capers (we appropriately call this the 'salt pizza'). Second was a Supreme pizza: italian sausage, green capsicum, mozzarella and a tomato base. I'm trying out a new pizza dough recipe as well which is a great success, also making it 48 hours beforehand and letting it cure in the fridge until one hour before cooking.

When uncle Dan let's me out of captivity I'll be looking for an address to come to to sample the supreme 😍
 
Today its duelling slow cookers. 10hrs beef short ribs in Rays Hickory & Brown Sugar sauce for hubby and bbq bbacon rashers for me. Both will be put in the oven for about 10mins before serving. It smells so good!

edit: ps, the 20 lands Zonin italian merlot was only $10 and is, shock, actually very drinkable, although the whole bottle, less 20mls went into the pot.
