I'm going to have to try it next time I'm cooking for her at her place and she has some vodka in the house. Hopefully the alcohol will evaporate enough so that my nephew can have some too! ;-)...

I did run out of some of the core ingredients, and my local Puerto-Rican Market has an *interesting* selection (three types of rat traps but no produce) so I had to substitute Chinese chili-garlic paste and sour cream. Very tasty. Bathing the pasta in butter is a stroke of genius.<BR/><BR/>Totally agree BTW that How to Eat and Goddess are wonderful books - I really regretted buying Nigella Bites and the Summer book, but maybe I'll have to give Feast a try...Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05264745985111793344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1120565983781166502005-07-05T15:19:00.000+03:002005-07-05T15:19:00.000+03:00Thanks, Michele!

No wonder that you and Melissa got along well:)<BR/>Melissa - I don't know about that particular book (let me know what you think of it!), but Georgian cuisine is really tasty. There are quite a few Georgian immigrants in Estonia (some of them from Abkhasia), and they've opened some nice restaurants which are also very popular with the locals. Their spicy lamb soup hartcho is one of my all-time favourites!Pillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05817049547134774699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1120501459160588212005-07-04T21:24:00.000+03:002005-07-04T21:24:00.000+03:00Hi Pille,well Im just coming across your blog toda...Hi Pille,<BR/>well Im just coming across your blog today and lo and behold it seems some of my favourite ladies have already found you :) The recipe looks great and Im looking forward to giving it a try and to reading your posts in the future!Michèlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10960864970030794892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1120494943085780022005-07-04T19:35:00.000+03:002005-07-04T19:35:00.000+03:00I actually don't have any of her books, believe it...I actually don't have any of her books, believe it or not...

Though you never know :)<BR/>I heartily recommend the pasta alla vodka – I’ve made it three times since I tried it first in May, and I really like it. There’s a certain nice heat in the sauce – and it’s not just from chillies, I think the vodka gives a certain depth as well. <BR/>Re: Nigella’s "Feast". I have three of her books – "How To Eat", "How To Be A Domestic Goddess" and "Feast", and the latter is probably my favourite – at least at the moment. It reads lusciously beautifully, the photography is gorgeous and recipes extremely tempting. That’s quite a compliment to the book, I guess, as I’ve used HTBADG over the last few years A LOT. I was never tempted by "Nigella Bites" and "Forever Summer" though - are these any good?Pillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05817049547134774699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13695947.post-1120481000258897942005-07-04T15:43:00.000+03:002005-07-04T15:43:00.000+03:00Hi Pille - that's really interesting about who dri...Hi Pille - that's really interesting about who drinks more vodka. I always assumed the Polish and Russians had everyone else outdistanced by a few light-years (which seems to be true - 15 liters!)... I'm really tempted to make that recipe, as I've actually never tried pasta with vodka sauce. By the way, do you like Feast? I was tempted to buy it when it came out but somehow convinced myself not to - do you think it's as good as Nigella's other books?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
