Lots of Leftovers
Today has been left overs. Lots of good food. We are still working on the Pulled Pork. Tonight it was nachos. Yesterday I made some Hungarian Slumgullian Soup for lunch. Quite easy, hearty and tasty. The rest of the hamburg went into a meatloaf (Individual Meatloafs) for dinner last night. The meatloaf sauce was easy with surprisingly complex flavors. With a bit of liquid smoke it would make a great barbecue sauce! And since the oven was hot, a Jelly Roll with homemade blueberry jam was the dessert selection. Making the jelly roll brought back a lot of memories from childhood. Spreading jelly and snacking on the trimmed edges. The spongy consistency of the cake. It's possible I haven't had one in about 45 years!

I liked your comments on the jelly roll. I tried recently to make a gluten-free jelly roll (using Mother's Cookbook recipe and swapping gf flour for regular flour). It was a complete failure and I threw it out. I was soooo looking forward to snacking on those cut off brown edges! Oh well. Cooking gluten-free can be a challenge. Next time I'll follow the directions precisely - or hunt up a gf recipe. Enough on that subject. Grammie Maki would be happy to hear that you tried the Slumgullian Soup! I think it sounds pretty good.
ReplyDeleteI also have fond memories of jelly roll edges an probably haven't made one in 30+ years. I will definitely have to make one soon.
ReplyDeleteMaybe that could be my Ground Hog Day Party contribution.
