The pasta with tomatoes is such a classic. I make my own tomato sauce and I use capellini. Some micro planed parmigiana and life is good.

🧈 How to make an eggplant soufflé, one of the former first lady’s favorite recipes 🍆🧈 :
Here’s what you’ll need to make it:

1 medium eggplant
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup of butter or margarine
1 1/2 cups of milk
2 eggs
1 cup of cracker crumbs (recipe notes good with cheese crackers)
Here’s how to make it:

Peel, slice and cook eggplant until it mashes easily. Season with salt and pepper. Add other ingredients. It will have a pudding-like texture. Pour into a buttered 1-quart baking dish about 1 1/2 inches deep. Bake at 350 degrees from 20 to 30 minutes or longer if needed. Bake until it is set like a custard, but not dry and stiff.

Serve immediately.

That's pretty funny.

Picasso declared this simple meal to be his "favourite dish of all time".


SERVES ONE

INGREDIENTS

1 medium Desirée potato (or another waxy potato), diced
1 white onion, diced
1 red pepper, diced
1 green pepper, diced
400g whole eggs
150g egg yolks
15g parsley, finely chopped

METHOD

Preheat a top down grill or broiler to a low heat. Warm a large flat bottomed pan & add a generous dash of good quality olive oil.
Add the vegetables, a large pinch of salt & sweat down slowly. A little sizzle is good, frying is too much. Stir every so often to make sure the vegetables are not sticking to the base of the pan but try to avoid breaking them up.
When the potatoes are just cooked (eat one to check!) the other vegetables should be soft and sweet.
Separately beat the whole eggs, yolks and parsley together with a pinch of salt.
Transfer the now cooked vegetable mix to a clean 20cm non-stick pan.
Add the seasoned egg mix and cook on a low heat until the tortilla starts to set in the middle and around the edges. At this point transfer the whole pan under the grill abd rotate the pan around so that it cooks evenly. Once “just firm” to the touch and with a slight spring, take away from the grill and rest a few minutes.
Using a rubber spatula run the end around the tortilla to loosen it before upturning the pan onto a chopping board.
Cut a thick wedge and serve with a dollop was of garlic mayo (aioli) and a dusting of sweet smoked paprika. The peppers and the aioli are not traditional, but this is how Picasso enjoyed it!

Nice. I like to add a spicy sausage mixture to this kind of frittata. Good cold as well.

I was confused that there's not a tortilla in the recipe, haha..it's called "Picasso’s tortilla with aioli" in the article.

I was reading that Picasso lived on chickpeas and rice for a long time and Bean soup was one Beatrice Wood's favorite meals. (She lived to 105!)

Here is a soup recipe from Vegetarian Gourmet Cooking by Alan Hooker from Ojai, CA

1.5 lbs red kidney beans (soaked in 2 quarts water)
1 qt water
3 stalks celery
2 cups onion
1 green pepper
1/4 t black pepper
8 vegetable cubes mixed with hot water msg and herb salt and fresh lime juice and1.5 T sherry
Serve with slices of lime and a hard boiled egg

It's called "Black Bean Soup" in the cookbook even though it calls for red kidney beans..I might try this with black beans today..and veg broth instead of the veg cubes.

In Spain, IMU, there's a thing called "tortilla" that's more like an omelet or frittata, with potatoes as an ingredient. Picasso was Spanish.

I bought this book- Herscher,Ermine. Picasso bon Vivant. New York: Rizzoli, 1996. It has a lot of good recipes!

"Food mixed with art for Picasso - he created ceramic plates with fish on them; he drew with wine on cafe table paper; he captured portraits of himself and the people around him in cafe settings; and he and his friends designed special menus and wall art for their favorite gathering places. Picasso, Bon Vivant tells the fascinating stories behind the artist's favorite meals, from the game he cooked as a youth in the Catalan hills, to the specialties of Els Quatre Gats in Barcelona, to the dinners made by his wife Jacqueline in the South of France.
Over 50 recipes present the foods that inspired Picasso, while 140 photographs and drawings present his art, and evoke the spirit of his boisterous gatherings and valued friendships with artistic and intellectual luminaries of the twentieth century, including Gertrude Stein, Georges Braque, and Guillaume Apollinaire."
