Our friend invited us over for a sensational International feast
Below is a link to the details and mouth watering pictures in the main WFD thread.
what a friend!!
Yes, we are relay blessed to have such a talented cook, with an amazing wine cellar, as a friend.
Tonight we will be enjoying Silken Tofu with Wood Ear and Morels:
Served with Jasmine rice infused with Meyer lemon:
Made Vietnamese Shrimp Patties to go with the leftover rice from yesterday. The first time I made this dish I went the traditional route and bought sugarcane to mold the patties around. I’m an idiot and I forgot to account for the added mass in my frying and the part next to the sugarcane went uncooked!
So, ever since then I’ve just made burger-sized patties. Of course, they are usually wrapped in butter lettuce leaves and dipped in a sauce that is equal parts lime juice, fish sauce, and sugar:
Mrs. P made an awesome arugula salad with grilled shrimp and fennel. Details and pictures are in the main WFD thread.
As my grandma would say; “a little Italian penicillin” can help keep you strong against the coronavirus!!
Jeez that looks damn tasty! On the topic, what’s everyone’s grated cheese of choice?
Usually Pecorino Romano. We keep a health supply on hand. Sometimes, Parmesan, which I buy in chunk form and grate myself.
We’re ALL coming to your house, Jr!
Pecorino Romano, Locatelli brand of I can find it. Grana Podano is good too. I love parmigiano Reggiano, but it’s $$$$ and so good to eat I find it a waste to grate. If I have that in the house I just eat it with a bit of balsamic and some olives and call it a day
We like fresh grated parmigiano reggiano. We buy it in big chunks, but it can be a little expensive (but worth it).
Beef…it’s what’s for dinner.
Lomo Saltado- 2 different ways, 2 different cooks.
Cabbage Bake
Chili
Appreciate the recent nominations, a great honor, and a vote for simple tasty food.
Great job! Looks delicious!
We did takeout from Tim’s Po Boys and Wings in Hawthorne for the first time. Thanks for the recommendation @CurlzNJ! Below is a link to the details and pictures.
Oh man that looks good Mr P. Hope you and Mrs Pvare well stocked up on wines for the long haul here. Looking fwd to some Pics of Mrs P kitchen magic while we’re all stick inside
Thanks Mr. Met! Yes we have plenty of wine (more bottles of wine than rolls of toilet paper)
That sounds like a nice spread Eli.
3 day mojo marinade then injected. This thing was serious! 9 hour cook today.
