the moroccan trifecta

April 2nd, 2008 · 1,992 Comments

i read about ‘orangette’s’ brussels shuffle, and the description of her market breakfast was more than i could stand

I should begin by saying this: do not underestimate the combined power of fresh goat cheese, honey, and olives. (Or spicy olives, to be specific, coated in something akin to harissa.) It is the trifecta….

so on a whim, and lured by some unexpected goat cheese gracing my doorstep, green olives were pitted and spiced with harissa, pita bread was gently defrosted in the oven until soft, the crumbled goat cheese was smoothed out by a bit of hot water and then a dark wildflower honey was drizzled on top of that – with complete abandon.

and dear readers, it was good. oh so very very good. so much so, that i have now had this exact dish 3 times in 5 days – and have served it to no less than 10 people. pita was what i had going. and it worked. but the authentic wrapping that would be used to envelop this spectacular tasting trio is called m’semmen, a moroccan pancake of sorts. and sure enough, i came across a recent post written about this very thing. but i don’t bake bread, remember? except i am now somewhat intrigued and might have to consider a m’semmen clause written into the ‘no bread baking’ contract that i have with myself.

but not today…

    With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any issues of plagorism or copyright violation? My blog has a lot of unique content I’ve either authored myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the internet without my agreement. Do you know any methods to help reduce content from being ripped off? I’d genuinely appreciate it.

    So yummy, but so easy! Thanks for demystifying such a great ingredient. I usually get my fix at Chinese takeaways by filling a little pot with twice as much chilli oil as I need so I have extra for next time. This is a much simpler solution!

    “I wonder if you would have been so persistent if the characters here were named John and Jane.”A name is a name. Right is right. Wrong is wrong. Do you not understand this? AccusingRon Kaye of all people in this city of an “ism”is definitely a big mistake on your part.I feel very sorry for you. Grow up and be a realAmerican! We are all in this together and takingadvantage of each other is a negative thing, not a positive.

    Does anyone know the brand of this watch?This watch is unique in the sense that the numberings are all jumbled up and yet the hands will still tell the correct time. I know there is a similar model for frank muller but i am looking for the cheaper alternative. I think the brand starts with a letter G.

    If they were as “furry as bears” and living in “subzero temperatures” (meaning little sunlight presumably), how did the UVB get through to make Vitamin D for these hairy handed gents? It didn’t, they got it from animal livers obvously, so why would anyone think modern Europeans needed to loose melanin.

    Some of my favorite driving albums: Three Dog Night’s greatest hits, “The Harder They Come” soundtrack and just about anything by the Beatles post-”Rubber Soul.” The important thing, I think, is to find an album that you know every word to every song – sometimes, cranking up some music and singing along is the only thing that helps me stay awake between Grand Forks and Fargo.

    I agree! I find the song bad especially that horrible autotuned rap! 😡 And I really don’t like the robo dance either! It’s like an excuse to be stiff on stage. :/ It’s sad really. I was hoping they would make a grand comeback with a good catchy song but this blows! I guess this is the end for me liking T-ara. P.S. Most of those outfits and hairstyles were tragic! WTH! :O

    So if I’m not mistaken this post was about Goudelock and him finding his place on the Lakers rotation, not about a trade that took place seasons ago.Goudelock is doing the same thing I and the rest of the Cougars in Charleston watched him do for 4 years at CofC. He is not a PG, he is not a SG, he is a scorer. The more freedom that Coach Brown gives Goudelock to play his own game, the better the results we will see from the rookie. Great game, can’t wait to watch him tear it up again against the Bucks on Saturday. Should be a great game for the bigs with Bogut out…
