      What's your bio? How did you come up with the idea for Pete's Pans? What's your connection to France and the Iberian Peninsula? Where do you live when you're not traveling? Do you take all your equipment with you? I've seen you going about by what seems to be many methods - bike, car, camper van - and cooking with both wood and propane. Can you tell us more about cooking on the road. Who is "Jess" (?) whom you salute at the beginning of each episode? Are you your own cameraman? How long does it take to shoot and edit an episode? What mishaps or happy mistakes and encounters can you share?

    The recipe is for two people. 400g each of pork and beef seems alot. I managed to eat four good sized meatballs and was stuffed afterwards. Admittedly I did serve them with mashed potatoes. 😅 Thanks Pete.

    I’m doing this tomorrow! I grow my own artichokes (the viciously spiny Sardinian ones) but tis not the season, so I’ll see if I can find frozen ones in the supermarket. For some reason, I’ve got 3 jars of cinnamon so a good excuse to use some of it! Buon appetito!

    Love the channel and never understand why more people aren't subscribing. Your culinary skills, choice of traditional dishes, and choice of geography and scenery are second to none. As for this one, I'm Italian - American and have never heard of putting cinnamon in meatballs: my dad is rolling over in his grave on that one. Also, glad to see you enjoying bread and drinking wine with the meal, something you don't always seem to do on video. Keep 'em coming!

      Cinnamon and sometimes cumin seem to creep into Catalan / Spanish cookery quite a lot. Would the Italians use any spice?

    Oh my word. These are delicious. I love the hint of cinnamon. I managed to find frozen artichokes. I fried some bread for the paste and you’re right, there’s a nice nutty crunch from the few almonds. Next time I’ll use cantuccini. These aren’t just meatballs, they’re Pete’s Pans’ meatballs! And they’re all mine, being married to a vegetarian.

    My first experience of Artichoke was a mouthful of the fibre glass like interior, wasn’t nice, but I did have the leafs with a kind of Alioli, they were pleasant. I’d certainly demolish a plate of that meat ball recipe Pete 👍

    • @Dvnllnvg
      @Dvnllnvg Год назад +1

      Yeah, you have to cut a way a LOT. If you have ever seen the canned artichoke hearts you can see how little is actually left. The leafs with aioli are just a very different dish, and after all you only eat the soft part on each leaf, so more of a snack than a meal designed to sate hunger.

      @@mikeb3010 I don´t like em as is, but they are decent in pasta or on pizza and the like. They taste much more acidic than the fresh ones, so they are kind of a different product in my mind, but absolutely worth using for their own sake. Oh, and pureed into marinades also works well for chicken or other "lighter meats" or fish.
