Kielbasa, sauerkraut and Dijon mustard on seeded sourdough rye. Delicious! Everything but mustard made locally.

Yuzu kosho glazed shrimp and egg fried rice from Roy Choiâs LA Son. I had made this before and wanted a little more oomph in the glaze, so I increased the orange and lime juice (and seasoned with a little soy sauce that wasnât called for), left the water out, and added some zest from both fruits too. I reduced everything by half before tossing the mostly cooked shrimp with it. Seemed to do the trick.
We had it with some broccoli and cauliflower mix.

Happy Diwali to all who celebrate!
Tonight I made stewed chicken (Gregory Williams - Food & Wine) over converted rice with honey-mustard glazed carrots and cucumbers in dill vinaigrette. The chicken dish was very tasty and hearty. I doubled the chicken and there was still too much sauce, so Iâd reduce it by half and cut back a little on the flour and butter next time.
I canât find the recipe anywhere online, but here is the ingredient list from the magazine:
½ cup butter
2 chicken leg quarters, split
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup flour
1 yellow onion, chopped
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup chopped celery
Cooked rice for serving
Garnish: Green onions (oops - forgot)
I seasoned the chicken with Lawryâs seasoned salt as well and added a bay leaf. The recipe has you separately toast the flour in a dry pan until a rich brown, then add it to a large skillet with celery and onion sweat in the butter and chicken drippings from browning the pieces first.

Made meatloaf last night with what we had - no sausage or ground pork, so i added bacon. A little dry, even though we reheated it at extra low temp, but good enough. BF made his buttery mashed potatoes and sauteed mushrooms with spinach.

I drank through Covid, which was not recommended. Not sure how your symptoms are now, but mine varied from slightly annoying to nonexistent. And I was positive literally Christmas week through New Yearâs. The hell I wasnât drinking!
But that gin will be there for you when youâre ready. Something to look forward to. Spanish gin? Very curious!

The dough has to be right (and rest for a while), and then the oil has to be good and hot.
We had two kadhais going, but the second one wasnât hot enough some of the time, so about a third of them didnât puff properly. Quite a pity because the dough was lovely!

Shrimp rubbed with a mixture of garlic, pimenton dulce, cumin, salt and pepper and then lightly sautĂŠed. The sauce is diced tomatoes, onions, garlic, serrano pepper, cilantro and lime juice. I found it kind of meh so I threw in a few spoonfuls of spicy olive mufaletta salad which added a nice punch. Mr Bean had it over rice but I liked the crunch of tortilla chips.
