I bet you're wondering what MOF MOF stands for.. Its a culinary term less used today but i think the most important when approaching day to day cooking. Take it on, and it will change your world.
Minimum Of Fuss
Maximum Of Flavour.
Its all about letting ingredients speak for themselves. Using simple methods of cookery to exaggerate their unique tastes.
Here are some of my MOF MOF food ways:
Best way to eat fish: Seared with lemon.
Best way to eat tomato: Smothered in olive oil and a pinch of salt on a thick slice of bread.
Best way to eat bread: With butter.
Best way to eat a pear: Poached in sugar syrup with cardamon.
Best way to eat raspberries: Fresh on their own, or on a sweet tart with Creme patissier custard.
Best way to eat eggs: Scrambled. Whipped with a touch of cream and cooked on a stove.
Best way to eat cheese: On its own with crackers, or melted into a puffy soufflé.
Best way to eat potato: cooked in water and mashed with cream butter and salt.
And last but not least.. Lemons!!!!
My favourite way to give a lemon so that it has maximum flavour with minimum fuss is my Nanna's Lemon pudding.
It captures everything about the lemon, it's sour zang, its pure taste, yellow colour and zestational deliciousness. This isn't too rich and is a perfect way to finish of a light meal. Its simple, no fuss cooking.
And here is the orginal recipe passed down from generation to generation. My present to you reader!
