Burmese-style mint chicken — my guy Ken at the farmer’s market didn’t have holy basil in because the slugs have been eating it, so I had to change it up.

Thanks. I’ve never seen that product. Is it in the refrigerated section?
The product is shelf stable and it is with all the other tuna on the shelf.
If your Grocery Store doesn’t stock Rio Mare then head to your nearest Italian Shop.
You’ll surely find it there.

Salmon, sweet potato, asparagus topped with one-egg hollandaise, a recipe from Chowhounder RelishPDX in 2014 that quickly became my no-fail, go-to. I was happy to find skinny asparagus spears at the grocery (and sale-priced). These look more like the back-yard-garden type I grew up eating; I think I’ve read that the thicker-stemmed ones are a different variety.

One Egg Hollandaise - paraphrased from recipe posted by Chowhounder RelishPDX in April 2014
1 egg yolk from a large egg
1/4 egg white from the egg (whisk egg white lightly to break it up, if necessary) - you may use all the egg white if you’re good with the whisk while cooking, but risk getting “scrambled eggs” not sauce…
1/3 stick (2 T plus 2 tsp) of salted butter at room temperature (or add a dash of salt to unsalted)
1 Tbsp lemon juice
Place all of the ingredients at the same time into a 2-qt. Pyrex casserole dish (or metal top pan of a double boiler), sitting over a 1-1/2 qt. saucepan half-filled with hot water (water should not touch the bottom of the top dish) . Turn the burner up to HI, and begin to slowly whisk ingredients together. Once the water in the pan sounds like it’s about to boil, turn the burner off. Continue whisking until the mixture thickens, lifting the casserole dish /double boiler pan off of the saucepan once the sauce is finished.
This sauce holds very well and makes just the right amount for a meal (or breakfast) for two. If any is leftover, refrigerate and it may be reheated in the microwave briefly on a low setting stirring occasionally.

In our backyard, at least, the Martha Washington asparagus spears are skinnier than the Jersey Knights. So I think you are right, it can depend on variety. Ours got all mixed up in one patch, and I just use the different widths for different things.

Tacos tonight to use up the braised pork. Made jalapeños torreados to go with, along with some radish and cilantro for garnish.

I’d be happy to give you a call the next time Mr Bean catches some. Where are you in the summer?
i asked the BF to make us this:
which he did - a creamy parmesan sausage soup. maybe not the best choice on a 90 degree day, but it was good! he also roasted some eggplant alongside.

Well, that may be a little far to come for dinner as I am in New Jersey. But if you are ever in my area you are more than welcome!

Eggs were recently on sale so I bought my limit of 4 dozen. I decided to hard boil one of the dozen. Then I had no idea what to do with them all. Many of my favorite Indian restaurants serve numerous variations of Egg Curries and decided that sounded perfect for a cold, rainy night. I ended up loosely following a recipe for Egg Aviyal from Curried Favors by Maya Kaimal MAcMillion. I picked it because it called for yogurt, which I had a smidge to use up, and lots of curry leaves which I love. I added a bit of canned of tomatoes and some frozen peas, both of which I had taking up space in the fridge.
