White tail deer . Sorry for my package reading. sirloin round tip
roast . My good friend is a professional fishing guide and hunter for over 40 years . Everything that is harvested is consumed. Though the fishing is catch and release.

Sushi happy hour blow-out (I think the blow-out part was that I was so parched from the heat turning on everywhere that I drank 2L of water and the rice swelled up in my tummy, argh). More sake than we needed on a weeknight.
Hand-rolls:
salmon, avocado, truffle
tuna, pumpkin seed
spicy scallop, scallion
Rolls:
sea bream, miso, shiso
steelhead trout, pear, thai chilli, crispy shallot
spicy tuna, crispy rice
Plus my reigning favorite: Brown butter scallop nigiri
.
.
Soy sauce chicken, scallion ginger sauce, rice, sauteed napa cabbage, pickled Sichuan potato shred salad and black fungus salad.
.
.
Split green moong dal, sautéed spinach, rice, ghee. Pretty purple millet papad not pictured.
Earlier, khaman dhokla / savory steamed gram flour cake (with green chutney not in the pic).

The Beaver Moon rising was pretty spectacular — no supermoons for another 12 months apparently.

These are pretty tasty and they were on sale!! 
, full of ginger/garlic and pork meat, made my own “stir fry” sauce from the stuff I had in the fridge.
Glad you’re feeling better!
Made a batch of braised beef short ribs cause they were on “sale”, reg $18 lb down to$13 lb, still expensive if you ask me. I stopped using flour as a thickening agent a while back, I found that it “muddied” the gravy/sauce too much, so now I just reduce it or puree the cooked mirepoix and add it to the boiling liquid like you would a roux. And let me tell you, that gravy was luscious.
Served with leftover mashed spuds, broccoli and carrots that were braised with the beef. Sofa king delicious!
Stashed enough for another meal in the freezer.

Dim Sum Garden sells their soup dumplings frozen , they started during the pandemic and we wouldn’t let them stop 
. Get a good cooler (or pick up some dry ice from Bassett’s ice cream in the RTM) and take them home.
Also the shu mai at the Thai stand in the RTM are more in line with what you are used to, and their food isn’t bad overall!

Man, I’d love to take an entire stash home to the boonies! We’d have to get some serious dry ice for a 3.5 hour trip! But we’d also be happy to return to DSG with you before we leave youre faire city 
Your pork chop looks so juicy, and as always, your plating is aspirational!

Wait a minute … care to share your recipe? Looks fab!
Lazy leftovers Sunday: fried rice, crab XLB I should’ve steamed instead of nuking, as one of them broke 
, and my PIC’s addictive Shanghai bok choy. Easy peasy.
Von Trapp’s Kölsch with. Too hoppy for Kölsch. Shoulda gotten the Vienna lager instead.
A few forks of this lovely lobster tail for dessert later

I had two heads of cabbage to use up, so I made cabbage roll casserole. The rice ended up a bit overcooked but the flavors were good. Naturally there are like 6 servings remaining.
