I spent another productive day in my clean, warm kitchen, while outside it rained and blew. Although it&#8217;s Saturday, I opted out of the pizza  for dinner, too much pizza lately. I&#8217;ve made Izzie&#8217;s favourite kluski slaskie instead and with them a mushroom sauce that I was very happy with. All those little jars of truffle goodness I brought back from Italy in summer!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The sauce started with a chopped and fried shallot and quite a few chopped chestnut mushrooms, slowly fried up, a handful of porcinis and some chicken stock. Black pepper. After about half an hour I added some double cream\/flour\/water mix to thicken it, 2 tbsps of truffle paste and then blitzed it all into smooth sauce and seasoned to taste. Chopped parsley to finish. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As child was going to eat it, I threw some cooked chopped carrots and green peas in, to make it a bit more nutritious.  The said child ended up having 11 dumplings, which made my heart sing! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Chocolate eclairs were had 2 hours later. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.xs4all.co.uk\/tablefortwo\/files\/2019\/10\/20191026_181721.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2740\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.xs4all.co.uk\/tablefortwo\/files\/2019\/10\/20191026_181721.jpg 640w, https:\/\/blogs.xs4all.co.uk\/tablefortwo\/files\/2019\/10\/20191026_181721-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If there was an Olympic competition of making the best mushroom sauce, I&#8217;d now have a medal.
