Re goat cheese, you can mix in a tiny bit of cream to soften the texture.
You reminded me of one of my favorite tapa at a place that sadly closed during the pandemic - discs of goat cheese sliced off a log, breaded and fried, then drizzled with honey and topped with caramelized onions. Salty, sweet, savory, everything in a bite! (Maybe I’ll be inspired by your Dali-esque meal and try my hand at it one of these days…)
They are YUMMY!!
I rinse the livers (strainer) shake off the excess water, lightly dredge in flour, then egg, then breadcrumbs (I add a little chili powder & salt to my breadcrumbs). I fry them on one side on the stove (until golden brown), flip them and into a 375 (F) oven. I start checking them (after 10 minutes or so) with an instant read thermometer until they hit 165-170 (F) internal. The other side browns in the oven.
Consider the WatchDuty app (also has a browser option): https://www.watchduty.org/ - real-time updates on fires and can set alerts by county. Otherwise, if you’re on Twitter, there are a couple accounts that keep on top of things.
Back to food. As we’re under the Heat Dome, and do not have central AC (so it’s over 95-degrees in the kitchen!), no cooking is happening. Instead, pizza:
@shrinkrap put me in the mood for Sunday roast. Roasted pork shoulder and today’s pickings. Polenta , corn on the cob and Bush’s (canned) baked beans not pictured. Farm Boy apple pie for dessert.
Quick easy dinner after two hours in the car both ways to visit BF’s parents who are up visiting from Florida - Kung Pao Shrimp in a tortilla for burritos. Mostly followed the Kung Pao recipe in Dunlop’s Land of Plenty, but used chili bean paste instead of dried red chiles for heat and tightened up the sauce a little so it would be less messy in the tortilla. Excellent, considering how quickly it came together!
Sausage, caramelized onion, and arugula pizza with slivered fresh basil, and using some of the Dave’s Gourmet tomato sauce (too watery for pizza, but I made do) and drizzled with peppered olive oil.

We have beef minute steak in the freezer imported from the Midwest by my FIL. I repurposed some of it into beef with Chinese broccoli served over jasmine rice. We are a bit bummed to call our camping trip short due to rain.
How do they taste to you? This is my first time growing them, and I’m honestly not in love with them. At least the ones I grew are a little too… I don’t know, subtle. Some of them are pretty wan. Could just be my particular plant. They’re so enormous, though, that I feel bad not eating them!
