Turned out that making sushi rolls with the rice on the outside was much more difficult so next week I’m going back to some old standbys to get my confidence back up but this week was pretty neat and experimental at least.

Well the weather did not get the memo that it’s spring now. It’s been snowing for three days here and honestly, one of them was one of the biggest we had all season but I’ll keep at it.

This is a delicious and homey dish. A little bit like a mix between vegetable pot pie and a casserole, it’s perfect for when you’ve got the cold weather blues. You can use canned biscuits to speed it up too. I’d also suggest doubling the casserole part without the biscuits if you’re going to freeze it.
This was a really great week for making food. Lots of different types of things and I managed to do all the things I actually wanted to do so I feel really great about these even if I overcooked the boiled eggs (!) which is something I almost never do but oh well, still delicious.

Going out a lot this week for some reason but oh well. I was secretly hoping for a little more spring-like weather but Tallinn has firmly that it’s still winter and I guess that’s okay too.

I found making tortellini much easier than ravioli so if you have given up on stuffed pasta due to ravioli I’d urge you to give it a second try with this recipe. I don’t have a pasta sheeter OR cutters OR even a pastry bag and I still found this recipe actually not too bad and I’ve made it a few times over. I made way too much filling the first time so I had to make multiple batches of pasta dough and it does get easier but tortellini does also take a good amount of time. I’ve found it takes me about 30 minutes to fill and fold about a pound and a half worth of pasta but your mileage may vary.
I guess I was very influenced this week by my friends who have been sharing their donburi pictures and onigiri bentos and I just had to make a little bit of it for myself so there’s a couple familiar twists on old favorites this week.
