Today we are taking a little break from my ‘potatoes in disguise’ posts. When I wrote about discovering that carrot tops were edible and could be transformed into pesto (recipe found here) my husband and co-captain, François, commented that it would be great used in a pizza, his all time fave food. For a while now he has patiently put up with my food mood […]
I asked Francois what he wanted for his birthday supper. It came as no surprise when he asked for pizza. It has become one of our favourite and most frequent meal onboard. Homemade Naan or pita bread is easy to throw together in the morning to have ready for an evening barbecued pizza. (my stove top recipe here ) The plan was to make a […]
Hey there Galley Peeps! I know I have been absent lately, but we have been on a little summer adventure. If this interests, you click on the link below: R.E.D. sails in the sunet otherwise, here is another simple galley creation, made from scratch, in my little galley, at anchor with the New York Skyline in view. Last night I made Stove Top Pita (to […]
Out first of the season onboard meal …and my first try out of the new galley stove. While we are on shore power it functions as a traditional stove with an element. While underway or at anchor, it can be used as a typical alcohol burning stove. I brought all the necessary ingredients onboard for a little pizza feast thinking it would be a real […]
What to do with cheese and deli meats leftover from my Italian Easter Pie? How about a little Mexican Italian fusion? PIZZADILLAS No real recipe required. Just load your fave pizza topping on tortillas… I cooked up some more of my Easy Tomato Sauce, adding some dried oregano, a smashed garlic clove and some dried chilis for a bit of extra flavour and heat… […]
Have any corned beef left from your Saint Patrick’s Day feast? Well Galley Kat has another good one for you! It’s Irish Italian Jewish fusion and I think the Swiss may have played a part in it too… REUBEN PIZZA 2 cooked pizza crusts (about 10″-12″ each) Russian dressing (see Galley Kat Notes below) sprinkling of caraway seeds (optional) 2 cups corned beef, pastrami or […]
Captain Francois was so encouraged by the response of his ‘flagship’ recipe post, Spicy Italian Crescent Ring that we are thinking of making Captain Cooks a regular occurance (and you know how Galley Kat feels about recipe series) This turned out to be a very ‘ad hoc’ recipe – some of this, some more of that …as you would dress a pizza… …he makes his […]
Today I was doing my usual browsing through recipes for ideas and I came across one that caught François’ attention: spicy, Italian, and meaty. and then he announced: “I want to make that!” Really? So this was the day the Galley Kat stepped back and let ‘he who offered to cook’ take over. …(happily)… …he shopped… …and returned with all his treasures… …I offered help […]
