Food as Art. ( Stuffed Savoy Cabbage.)

Last night i decided to do something different with savoy cabbage, so i bought some bacon (pancetta stufata in italian), some gorgonzola cheese, sesame seeds and some of those sweet, marmelade-like condimenti that are easy to make yourself, by mixing some marmelade, mustard and a little salt.  I boiled the cabbage leafs seperately for about 5 minutes.
After this i let them cool and dried them with paper.
Then i roasted the sesame seeds for about 3 minutes.

I filled the leafs with some gorgonzola, 1 slice of bacon and 1/3 teaspoon of the sweet stuff.
Rolled the leafs and closed with 2 tooth picks.

Garnished with sesameseed and dried chives.

Served cold.

DELICIOUS!!!

PORK IN MILK

Immagine
For this typical italian recipe, you can use any pork cut. I used loin, so i can serve the pork sliced, which looks good. I used: - 1 kg. pork - 1 liter milk - 1 pc. garlic (chopped) - 2 tbl. sp. olive oil - rosemary, bay leaf, a few sage leafs and   - mint leaf - pepper + salt What to do: Place the pork cut in a baking tin and add all the milk and the other ingredients. Cook at 180° C. until the meat is tender, depending on the type of cut, let's say at least 30 min. Turn the meat at least 2 times, to brown evenly. When done, cool the meat and slice. Cover with milk sauce, and serve.         The sauce shouldn't be to liquid, if so, cook apart to evaporate some more liquid. Buon Appetito!
