I love Spaghetti Aglio Olio. This version differs quite a bit from that as it adds anchovies to the mix. There are still things Id like to improve with this recipe, but the current state is a good base recipe.

This recipe just came about due to left over tenderloins from my meat curing project. I did not really have a plan what to go for, but the end result is pretty nice. It does not take much time with hands on, though for the best result you have to let it cook for a few hours.

This light seeds bread was a reminder to write down when ingredients when experimenting. First version was amazing, but reproducing it was a pain. Took me about 5 iterations to get to a point where it is near to what I want it to taste.
