When Does The Mask Of Pregnancy Show Up

The dip of "Mom & Daughter" ... the tradition continues .....

My mother made me very often dips, but when it happened to me was a real treat. No meat, chicchiolate pretty bowls of green and lots of good oil with just a dash of pepper. I then, she adds a bit of white vinegar emulsion, because I liked the sour and wink while I ate the vegetables crisp and clean.

For me it was like a game, and without forks while eating lots of vegetables .... crafty mum eh!

And since I have now gone from the role of daughter to mother, I repeated the formula of the famous and beloved even dip my belvotte.

But as times change, I tried to make it more modern, rich and flavorful as possible. In addition to the sticks of vegetables have also made some quick pretzel with puff pastry and ham, small roses and twisted sticks. Some sprinkling of sesame seeds and poppy seeds and on.

As for the dipping sauces in which the vegetables, I chose a cheese-based and a creamy chickpea (l ' hummus).

only event, I prepared everything in the late morning to get him out to dinner in the presence of my children. The pretzels because he had lost some of their crispness and vegetables had softened a bit, but nevertheless, after dinner there was nothing in the white platter .... evidently was not so bad ^ _ ^

Council - all consumed shortly after preparation, to meet / maintain the flavor and prevent "deflation."
