tomatoes

My project to force myself to develop a taste for tomatoes continues apace. Today I have cooked myself my own perception of a Spanish chicken stew, complete with many cherry tomatoes, tomato paste (first time I've ever bought such a thing), garlic (don't usually cook with that either), saffron and thyme.

It tastes nice.

Soon, my friends, I shall be removing tomatoes from my "I don't eat list" forever!

Forwards to mushrooms, comrades!

Next year's project will involve getting to love melted hard cheese, but alas I must take some time before I can cope with that. And around 2012 I will start trying to cope with my final cuisine nightmare: hardcore shellfish.
