12 Maanden Lekker Eten

Albert Heijn - 2008

Squash soup with ginger (Pompoensoep met gember) : page 376

I made this soup with butternut squash instead of the little squash usually found in Albert Heijn (the biggest supermarket in Holland), and used a homemade vegetable stock. It was a nicely-balanced soup and made 8 servings as a first course.

Tortilla with Peppers, olives, and kapers : page 280

This was the first time I made a tortilla. I made a half recipe and added some bacon pieces, and less oil. this may have been a mistake, since the tortilla did not brown or free nicely from the bottom. I'll need to work on my technique.
The topping of parsley, capers, and olives is great, but I found the tortilla itself rather bland. It needed salt and more hot spice.
However, when I ate the leftovers (at room temperature) I found the whole thing worked much better in terms of flavour. I'd still add more salt and pepper to the eggs though.
