The rare meal that I can cook for both of us. Shrimp and morel risotto, sorrel and horseradish salad with chopped egg. The latter was surprisingly excellent, considering how it was composed of “stuff I need to use up.”

Sorry, could you refresh my feeble mind of the “TPSTOP”? Something about butter. I got the “SC”. Thank you!

One more home-cooked meal from last week—grilled swordfish (which we rarely eat due to mercury concerns); soba noodles lightly dressed with a drop each of tamari and sesame oil and topped with awesome farm corn and tomatoes; steamed farm bok choy sprinkled with a garlic chilli crisp-like locally-produced sauce . Caught B mid-meal for a photo.
Also, I laughed at one of my previous photos—the way that the guys are pressed up against the booth, else they feel my wrath if they dig in too soon

I have a ton of mushrooms that need to be used up and this looks perfect for our rainy, windy weather. Did you use a particular recipe or wing it?
Thank you! Everything is better with love and butter!

Mix sugar, rice vinegar, jalapeño and soy sauce and simmer 3 minutes, cool down. Once it is cool, put it on the cod filets, sautée them for 3-4 minutes per side
Cook somen noodles (we only had ramen noodles at home) drain them, mix with sesame oil, basil and scallions
Sautée oyster mushroom in butter for 6-7 minutes
Plate noodles, top with mushrooms and fish

Another of our regular/quarterly visits to Flour & Water https://www.flourandwater.com/ to go for their pasta tasting menu. As always some dishes remain, some change more seasonally - the new first course wasn’t terrible successful and tasted more like a stale chip. The food was good as always but the service this time was quite indifferent and chaotic, including some issues with wine pairing.

Pasta chip, cacio e pepe dip, herbs & flowers
Halibut crudo, rose hip, fresno chili, sumac
Corn aracini, ricotta salata, jalapeño, lime
