I have been browsing the net for grain-free recipes. I found 2 recipes and experimented.
The first experiment was Swiss Rosti. I have only eaten it once and I cannot recall how it tasted.
My first attempt was..... SCARY!!!!! Hahahahahaha
I wanted to perfect it.... I cooked another one after breakfast.
I used the bacon dripping this time.
Ohhh I love Swift Delicious bacon! So fatty and salty!
I was able to render about 1/3 C of bacon drippings from 3 slices only! ( I cut each strip in half so it would fit my frying pan.)
Wonderful!
My 3rd attempt was perfect, well.... Compared to my first 2 experiments.
Ohhhhh look at the bacon rosette! So pretty!
After grating the potato, I rinsed it in a colander until the water was clear.
Then I squeezed the grated potato until dry.
On a non-stick pan where I fried the bacon, I placed the potato pattie and cooked over low heat until golden brown.
Then flipped it over and cooked again until golden brown.
I did not add salt anymore.
My next experiment was Pao de Queijo - Brazilian Cheese Buns.
I used cassava starch which I bought in SM Makati.
I will experiment again. My taste testers, Tricia and Anna, said it needs more cheese and center was chewy.
Although in the website where I got the recipe, it said, the center should be moist and chewy.
I have something in mind I want to try and experiment using the same principle as Pao de Queijo.
It is very exciting because there are so many grain-free recipes out there!
Will just have to try it one at a time.
