I've never eaten it, myself, but have read about it. Comfort food around here involves lots of soups. Last night was a Cauliflower/Kale/Carrot/Italian Sausage/tomato version. It would be good without the sausage, too. So good with a slice of homemade sourdough toast. Comfort food and carbs are almost synonymous!Lorriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03653026442945027184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-29217859360944508062019-01-30T12:31:41.724-05:002019-01-30T12:31:41.724-05:00That one sounds awesome Rosemary - and yes, brusse...That one sounds awesome Rosemary - and yes, brussels sprouts are very good in this dish - but the addition of chestnuts must be really tasty.<br />Mary xMaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11915239653283205065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-81978368939096189662019-01-30T12:30:02.271-05:002019-01-30T12:30:02.271-05:00I make a Christmas Chutney at the holidays but dur...I make a Christmas Chutney at the holidays but during the year buy Patak's Indian chutneys at the grocery store.

I sliced two pairs of Wiener sausages into the soup, and we ate it also piping hot (there is no other way for me to eat soup - as soon as it starts to cool off, I don't want it anymore) and with fresh bread just brought in from the bakery down the road.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-55467876295609587832019-01-29T21:54:14.179-05:002019-01-29T21:54:14.179-05:00Your comfort food sounds very yummy.

It is a salad made of dandelion greens, vinaigrette and hard boiled eggs, with crusty French bread on the side. They had lovely fresh dandelion greens at Whole Foods so I jumped on them. Thank you for coming to my blog while I was not blogging much. Today I am starting to visit all my blogging friends again and commenting.Vagabondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10774109692564954568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310317081887553860.post-61000308490923376032019-01-29T21:53:59.134-05:002019-01-29T21:53:59.134-05:00Mmmm...I love Bubble and Squeak!

I can only imagine how extra-wonderful it would be with blue cheese and chutney.

Your meal sounds wonderful with cod. I think macaroni and cheese would be my comfort food eventhough I am not a huge cheese fan, just that creaminess sounds so delicious.

I think I will have to try this recipe. Oddly enough I must have skimmed over it in the Nigel Slater cookbook. Have a great day and stay warm.
