A favorite of mine too! When I make a big pot of chili I always freeze omelette-sized portions.

Zhoug-marinated roasted chicken thighs (based on a recipe from thekitchn), red onion, carrots (a bit overdone) and 7-grain pilaf. Excellent deliciousness to effort ratio meal.

After a serial gut bomb of a lunch that I thought would send me straight to bed for a well-deserved nap but didn’t, we felt like lighter fare for dinner… but not like cooking.
So I told my beloved that “I’ll buy if you fly,” and he went out to pick up sushi: king salmon, escolar, mackerel, yellowtail sashimi, suzuki & chū toro nigiri, yellowtail scallion roll.
The place was a zoo, apparently (gosh I wonder why? 
), and the order wasn’t ready when it was supposed to be. They were also out of suzuki, so I ended up steaming a handful of har gow as well.
I foresee a veddy, veddy early evening after last night’s shenanigans, which is just as well: our bathroom remodel starts mañana, and those peeps show up at the crack o’dawn.

He grilled out a ribeye and had a salad. No pics. Some of you might want to close your eyes again. Split pea soup. Yum!

We enjoyed an excellent Valentine’s Day dinner, with live entertainment, at Fiorentini in Rutherford, NJ, including, Lobster, duck, octopus, beef carpaccio, and some excellent desserts. It all went great with our favorite cabernet and a Chateauneuf Du Pape.

The gumbo looks great! What’s in the muffulatta salad dressing? Can you share your method for getting such a dark roux?

I had a carton of muffalettta salad from the deli and when it got down to the dregs I added oo & vinegar. My roux is not always as dark as I’d like, just patience and let it cook until you like the color.

Do you drain it? My homemade yogurt is “runny” compared to US store-bought and especially Greek, but of course totally normal texture for homemade.

Your split pea soup looks a lot like a celeriac and carrot soup I made this week, to use up celeriac left from our CSA share. My soup did the job of using the celeriac but enlightened me that I actually prefer that vegetable in smaller doses, ha. Split pea is much tastier.
