Mea culpa, doll face.
Last night’s dinner at an Asian night market included bbq’d squid, bbq’d oysters, scallion pancake and dumplings. The squid was my favourite.

Picked up another dozen ears of local corn at my farm stand today. The drought is definitely affecting the size. But still pretty good.
Two small ones were nuked for 4 minutes in-husk, then stripped of the husk and silk. The rest will be stripped from their cobs for freezing for wintertime meals and the cobs will be used for yet more corn stock.
Mozzarella Bacon Cheeseburger on a lightly toasted Brioche bun with ketchup on the bottom, and homemade crispy dark potato chips leftover from a company lunch this past Thursday.
Wine. And A/C. Thank goodness.

Needed to pivot from my planned dinner to something quick, with ingredients that we had on hand. So pasta and rosé night it was. Zucchini and cherry tomato spaghetti, with a zing from dried Aleppo pepper flakes.
Forgot to take a picture of the rosé. Lovely to sip on a hot evening.

Sister and I made two versions of Vietnamese garlic noodles to see which we liked better: she followed a Kenji recipe (on the right), and I made my go-to (left). Kenji’s called for TWENTY CLOVES OF GARLIC. She cut the recipe in half, so only 10, but still - TOO MUCH. Tasted sharp and bitter. First time Kenji has let us down! Also, she picked up Costco pre-cooked/sous-vided pork belly, just gets seared in a pan. Super salty, with a texture like ham. Would not buy again. I also made bok choy with Maggi seasoning, oyster sauce, a little brown sugar.
