What did you cook or eat today (July 2019)?

The last of the current batch of spring roll samosas with raw shredded cabbage.

Do you mean 'red wine vinegar'?

No, just red wine. I also thought the same thing when I first read the recipe, but either way, the cumin was just too much for either of us. I like cumin fine, but when it's working with other spices, not as the star. It has an almost...musty quality to it.

The chicken was wonderful, though, and I wish I'd snapped a pic before building the sandwiches. They were fried perfectly. The wife even requested I add these to the regular rotation (What?! Make the same thing twice?! Never!).

That is very odd. I've not come across wine being used in a 'dressing' unless its cooked. I suppose that regarding the cumin, it would depend on how much. Cumin can Was it whole seeds or ground cumin?

@morning glory - I buy my cumin whole, then toast it and grind it myself as needed.

This morning was blueberry buttermilk pancakes, better than last week's:

@MypinchofItaly, @morning glory - thanks! These were as close to perfect as I've gotten in a long time. Not overmixed, not undermixed, not over or undercooked.
