Tonight we made that happen when we made Tagliatelle with Scallops. It took us about 1.5-2 hours to make and another hour to clean up, but it was certainly worth it. We also made a nice caesar salad. The dressing was made from a recipe I have had for years and it was incredible.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/making-the-pasta.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1849\" title=\"making the pasta\" src=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/making-the-pasta-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/making-the-pasta-200x300.jpg 200w, http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/making-the-pasta-100x150.jpg 100w, http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/making-the-pasta.jpg 648w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 200px) 100vw, 200px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>First we had to make the pasta. We made a spinach tagliatelle. We boiled some spinach, mixed it in with some eggs, then added the flour. I mixed that for a bit and then wrapped the dough in plastic for 20 mins.<\/p>\n<p>While we waited for the pasta, we made the scallop sauce. The most entertaining part was the 4 tablespoons of brandy which I was instructed to light on fire in the pan. Very nice effect.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/dinner-on-fire.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1848\" title=\"dinner on fire\" src=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/dinner-on-fire-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/dinner-on-fire-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/dinner-on-fire-150x100.jpg 150w, http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/dinner-on-fire.jpg 968w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s no small task to make a nice dinner. I think I have a greater appreciation for the work that goes into what we eat at restaurants. Last night we had pasta at Vero Amore and it cost about $40. Tonight we made dinner at home and the ingredients cost $44. Even so, it is fun to make things together and especially things that taste good.<\/p>\n<p>Here is our final product, it was so good!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/dinner-020811.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1850\" title=\"dinner 020811\" src=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/dinner-020811-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/dinner-020811-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/dinner-020811-150x100.jpg 150w, http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/02\/dinner-020811.jpg 968w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yunuen and I have been longing to make nice meals for dinner.
