Still snowing, so decided to make chicken pot pie: Comfort food on a snowy day! The recipe is a basic one, basically chicken and vegetables in a veloute sauce, enriched with a bit of cream… and some vermouth. I have been using Noilly Pratt the last month or so, as I had some in the liquor cabinet for cocktails. I recommend it for cooking also. The other addition was diced celeriac, which made for a nice change from potatoes. Puff pastry on top (puff pastry makes everything better!!)

What’s comfort food without chocolate? I’ve been meaning to test-drive the new Bakers’ premium 70% cocoa bittersweet chocolate for a while, so I decided to make some molten chocolate cakes to test it out. The verdict: two thumbs up, not quite as good as the Ghiardelli, but definitely a couple of steps up from the semisweet, and good to have on-hand in the pantry.
