With the leftover uncooked dumpling filling from last night, i loosely followed a recipe for pork mince noodles with hoisin and sichuan peppercorns. Very good!

BF’s dish on the right. And he went back for 2nds! Lucky bastard still has a metabolism. :sob:

Mrs. P made Cajun dry rubbed hamburgers, topped with blue cheese, sautéed onions, and mushroom, on a bed of arugula and sautéed mini peppers. We had a side of Trade Joe’s sweet potato fries, and started off with homemade guacamole and chips. It all went great with an excellent Malbec.

It’s the end of the week (yay!). I caught someone plagiarizing (boo!). So, favorite foods. clams, artichoke, bagel & smoked steelhead trout, deviled eggs. And almost definitely my last balcony tomato, a pink Berkeley that looks green but is ripe (and pink on the bottom).

Did you smoke the steelhead yourself?

No, it’s from these guys: https://www.hudsonvalleyfisheries.com/collections/all-products?gclid=CjwKCAiAtdGNBhAmEiwAWxGcUlzanQ7yMt7DxtH9fsBt9-JNFxH4sV1N5gZMiXBwtHDIRIPB1KUQyhoCpVUQAvD_BwE

@small_h absolutely everything on that website looks fabulous! Is it as good as it all looks??

The lox is awesome, and they sold a kit (I don’t see it now) that held two trout fillets, a pepper seasoning packet, and a cedar plank. That was also very good, but it came with this gross sweet honey dijon/mustard/horseradish sauce that I’m still trying to work my way through (I actually dipped the artichoke in it the last night, which was not terrible). So, other than the gross sauce, everything I’ve had I would recommend.
