Here's an ancient Italian recipe that i just made up. People seemed to like it and it was easy enough to make. It will be better left to cool and reheated tomorrow.
Today we remember the Blessed Claudio Granzotto, hence the name 😄
OK, so this is an especially mundane picture, even by my poor standards. However, I discovered that a significant number of kitchen fires have been started by flare-ups from air fryers.
The handbook for mine talks about cleaning the drawer and the basket, but doesn't mention the rest of the appliance at all - and that's possibly where the problem lies.
To de-grease and clean your airfryer, fill a ramekin with white vinegar and water, place in the basket, and run at 200 deg C for 10 minutes. Unplug, and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes, and then remove the drawer, invert the appliance, and carefully wipe the inside with a slightly damp cloth. Hey presto, pretty clean, free of built-up fats, and significantly reduced fire risk.
The dark band on the ramekin is some of the gunk that was loosened in the cleaning process. Yuk.
This is a fire mark indicating the building is insured against fire. It meant the fire brigade would stop to attempt to extinguish any fires.
The Hand-in-Hand was one of Britain's oldest insurers.
The other sign comes from a railway company and I have no idea what it's doing there.
It's been a busy day again. So what's for tea?
A bowl of steamed baby sprouts, red and green capsicums, steamed in the nuke for 4 minutes, and drizzled with flic.kr/p/2qSh4pt and a few grinds of pepper and salt for good measure. Unlike the focus here, it was adequate.
From the Wiki:

Cha is the name for tea in Guangdong dialect. Portugal was the first European country to import 'cha' where this name is commonly used. The merchant who supplied it came from Guangdong.
This is keemun tea. A favorite of mine. I bought it from a merchant in... Blackburn 😁
OK, I wasn't going to get any more cookbooks - my shelves are full. However, I saw this, read some of it, and laughed. Some of the recipes are a bit questionable, but the expletive-laden text is so different from anything else in my collection that I had to have this. And it just made me laugh; it reminded me of someone I used to go out with.
It's all about cooking and eating vegetables, cooked by yourself, instead of buying takeouts. Well, cooking veg appeals; I can't remember the last time I took food out of a restaurant, and have never had it delivered.
This 19th century church with its imposing spire, formerly called The Friary, is up for sale. Standing at the end of Saint Leonard's Gate, I suspect the original friars cared for the deacon keepers who lived nearby. Saint Leonard is the patron of many things, including coopers, women in labor, and prisoners.
Seen today on a vacant shop front in Lancaster.
Wolf howling at the moon is one of Banksy's.
I wonder how long it will remain in place.
Having put the bread in to bake it's time for crumpets and Vegemite, with an espresso.
The Bambino Plus certainly produced a decent brew with a good crema. I didn't even need to adjust my grinder for this machine.
I don't medicate for ADHD but a regular shot of caffeine helps with attention and focus.
