New Foods, A Moment In My Day

[jmfargo]

I just finished making the lemony mascarpone. It came out well, and though I've never made it before this, I'm fairly certain I did it how I should have. Next time, though, I have to find a place to buy cheesecloth. No matter what they say, a couple sheets of paper towel just don't cut it.

Now it's time to open up the blue lump crab and try making those crabcakes on the fly. No recipe, because I'm trying to make my own for a competition. If nothing else, this should be very interesting, and enlightening.

Only problem is, one pint of heavy cream makes a lot more mascarpone than I thought it would, and the two to four dollops I'm going to need tonight won't even make a dent in it.

Time to make lots of new recipes, I guess!

That's not a bad idea. Maria's not a big fan, and when I've had it it wasn't great, but that was always store-bought. I'm wondering if home-made will be better.

How've you been, anyway?
