I don’t have a chef’s knife.
The place where we’re staying is lovely. The kitchen was actually furnished well when we got here – soap, towels, pots and pans, plates and bowls, glasses, mugs, cutlery, a wooden spoon, even a moka pot for coffee. But they didn’t have a cutting board or a chef’s knife or a sponge. Managed to pick up three out of four of those things at the public market across the street.
I’ve been using a sarrated steak knife. Not easy to mince garlic with those things.
I made fettuccine with garlic, asparagus and parmesan for lunch. Wanted mushrooms or spinach. Didn’t have those. Also wanted this carbonated lemonade drink that’s popular here but didn’t have the motivation to walk over to get it from the café across the street.
