of axioms and trouble: a chronicle of culinary sardonipponico afternoon.
my first lasagna of 2010 ^ ^
call into question the axioms of my life seems to be blessed and sardonipponica become my official sport lately. Leaving out the new and fair
patterns of social behavior, the result of the rules of mutual respect typical of this country and to which I have adapted willingly, or demanding
collection of trash that upsets the natives themselves, or indecipherable set of rules not written that you have to learn by feeling, well, really only one thing I am not willing to compromise: the lasagna.
But let's order.
The aroma of this dish of our Italian cuisine, so versatile in its endless preparations, it has been my faithful ally in the anti-microwave convince her husband to equip our kitchen with a wonderful combination oven and technology of Hitachi.
Source Rakuten Japan definitely reduced in size, incredible in its use and one-touch easy to clean. As my first experience with the microwave (yes, I admit) I could not ask for more, in fact.
The shock occurred in the first, use the oven suffered in a "traditional".
The absence of grooves to guide the pan I was really suspicious, but exhausted from the battle (won anyway) to convince her husband's naughty I have not focused too much on the details, assuming that the electric furnaces around the world all based on the same laws geometric: the cake is round, the lasagna is square.
And here's the beautiful Pyrex Iwaki with which I set up my first lasagna of 2010, a vegetarian version, filled with grilled vegetables and hand-made sauce. To purchase
I went to the store equipped with a meter, not content, however I did try putting the pan in the oven bought the same model, on display next to two lanes.
A masterpiece of design and lightness in its simplicity. Except that, just stuck in my supertechnological oven and made a rotation of 20 ° when something is jammed.
But be careful ... rotation? And when the rotating ovens? Yes, of course, the spectacular dance of rotating
Darwish typical microwave is appreciated and famous throughout the world, but who decided that traditional methods should rotate the dish?
Upset by the terrible discovery and full of despair, I started frantically looking through the guide book to find traces of the oven without the possibility to stop spinning. Among the containers simply not compatible, it is recommended to use inappropriate materials in their own ways, but no trace of the axiom rotating.
After about an hour of tribulation and frantic searches on the Internet, I came to the conclusion that even in Japan
The lasagna has wheels. Transfer the contents of the pan in two oval ramekins (sigh!!), I've gotten with just 30 minutes late on dinner.
That the husband has definitely like it, brushing his portion, and asking for an encore.
I still do not I give up, and today I'm going to try a new dish strictly square but small enough to allow rotation. Because for me
want lasagna square ^ ^
