Re: The Comfort Zone. Favourite food, drinks, where to buy, and recipes.

The only ceramic pot I have used is the "pignata" for octopus or pulses or horse meat on the fireplace. Do you use the ceramic pots on the hob or in the oven?

Re: The Comfort Zone. Favourite food, drinks, where to buy, and recipes.

Well I made it. Boiled the water, added the polenta, stirred but not fast enough ending up with lumps. Put in the liquidizer, got rid of lumps, then back into the saucepan and added the cheese and...

Re: The Comfort Zone. Favourite food, drinks, where to buy, and recipes.

No, I wouldn't go to Bari (200 km there and 200 km back) just for one of their biscuits. It's the fact that like many other things, Bari is as far south as anyone goes, not to mention Sicily.

Re: The Comfort Zone. Favourite food, drinks, where to buy, and recipes.
