So f’n good! I created this pie as a signature app at a restaurant of mine a dozen years ago. Really love the combination, I use to actually make it with crab meat vs shrimp.
Crust was good, certainly got crisp. Might try to tweak my preparation next time but it was good.
How was the salted caramel cupcake? Better than the key lime one I hope?
Too bad about the strawberries. They are plentiful where I live in Ottawa Canada. I got a big basket in my CSA yesterday. If we lived any closer to each other I would share…
( if you notice your post was modified I fat thumbed the knife and fork button for my moderation edit button. I didn’t make any changes and restored the post. My bad! )
Like @ChristinaM i also made (the unfortunately named) Umami Noodles - I started with Andrea Nguyen’s recipe and made a few adjustments.
Steamed yellowtail with ginger, soy, scallions, sesame oil, and cilantro alongside.
Used some of the produce I bought in Chinatown last week (got in a little grocery shopping before the HO group dinner) - fresh shiitake mushrooms, bok choy, garlic scapes, scallions, and cilantro.
The fish was lovely as that prep always is. The noodles were fantastic. Taking all my willpower not to eat through the rest.
Gin & Tonic, no I had tequila, I’m just adding to @LindaWhit’s list of summer go-togethers.
Dinner was chicken mole poblano, elote and a salad of mixed greens, tomato, avocado, black beans, red onion, chipotle ranch.
Fat thumbed the knife and fork. I’m down with that . Have a great weekend. I’m headed out to my favorite butcher market tomorrow for sausage made by a German . And I will select a gorgeous ribeye . I live in the top of California. Headed to cattle country. Cheers
Summery dinner though it was grey and chilly most of the day. BF made his zucchini salad, with tarragon and Dijon mustard this time, i made my Frenchy potato salad (minced shallots, thyme, capers, olive oil), he cooked up Toulouse sausages from our Frenchy butcher, and i nuked the COTC and slathered it in butter. i am on a corn streak!
New England Fish Chowder - First cod poached in a mixture of water, salt pork, onion, bay leaf and thyme. After removing the fish, cooked the potatoes in the mixture, added milk with cornstarch to thicken and added the cod back to the chowder. Finished with crispy bacon and chives.
Kicked off birthday (it’s tomorrow/Saturday) weekend with a great steak and drinks. BF was working super late and mom said she’d take me anywhere I wanted to go tonight. So off to the Portuguese/Spanish place that we went to a few weeks ago it was. Delicious as always. Obligatory garlic shrimp appetizer with lots of bread, filet mignon with mushroom sauce for me, and she had broiled snapper. There were cocktails of course.
