Thanks to my horrific cooking abilities, dinner can start off really well and take a swift nose-dive. Top notch ingredients. A delicious sounding recipe that I was going to alter for my purposes. Despite such a great start, I really know how to mess these things up in execution. I salvaged it, and made it edible, but it was one of those meals where one can easily give up and order a pizza were not for my allergies. I tried making garlicky greens with pasta: garlic, kale and buckwheat pasta with a side of asparagus. My asparagus turned out really well though! Pan fried with garlic mmmm...

Fresh produce and 100% pure buckwheat pasta. |

I enjoy prep work more than the pulling of it all together. Rhythmic chopping is very calming. Be sure to concentrate on your grip though, I speak from ridiculous experience... |

In order to save my meal, I tossed the noodles and wilted greens with a red wine vinaigrette. The pan fried garlic asparagus turned out the best!! I love it when I get something right. Topped with fresh basil, sea salt, pepper and a few red chili flakes and voila! A meal that's half decent. |

Next time I think I'll be more cautious and definitely have all my ingredients prepped and ready (I was still cutting kale in my haste to get dinner started). I won't try to fry my 4 cloves of garlic for so long, as they were terribly burnt by the time my veggies were done. I say that, but each time I seem to overcook garlic. It's way too easy to do this, I'm learning. I didn't have enough liquid in the pan to wilt the greens well so I will have to adjust that too. I'm going to make this work next time, I'm sure of it! And pizza won't be in order!
do you need commercial equipment.
