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

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.
Amuse bouche - cannoli, ricotta, caviar
Pasta chip, cacio e pepe dip, herbs & flowers
Halibut crudo, rose hip, fresno chili, sumac
Corn aracini, ricotta salata, jalapeño, lime
Black truffle sformato, potato crumb, parmigiano crema
Taleggio scarpinocc, parmigiano reggiano, aceto balsamico
Seaweed rigatoni, uni butter, chili, squid ink breadcrumb
Tortellini en brodo
Acorn & iberico agnolotti, pickled garlic scapes
Basil fusi istriani, pork sugo, fava bean ragu, pecorino
Dark chocolate budino, espresso caramel cream, sea salt

Which hotel are you staying ? Pretty much everything within San Francisco is easily reachable by Uber - just reserve a table at Flour & Water and enjoy their pasta tasting menu
I don’t remember RN. We’re meeting up with @mariacarmen & another CH buddy, so it’s not just up to me. She’s not huge on pasta, and the whole table would have to do the pasta tasting… we’ll see what happens.

Errands before the expected rain, which was minimal.
Pan-seared b/s chicken breasts, pre-roasted shallots added to the pan, with a sauce of whole grain and Dijon mustard, white wine, honey, s/p and dried tarragon. Finished in a 350° oven until done.
Served on Basmati rice with steamed green beans alongside with toasted almonds.

A fairly-successful attempt at crispy chicken cutlets (finally) from a Smitten Kitchen recipe, along with some leftover spaghetti with my favorite jarred sauce (Dave’s Gourmet) and local broccoli.

A fine lemony fish chowder made with a BC silver salmon filet and garden veg: leeks, potatoes, carrots, peas, bay, and chives.
Loosely based on this epicurious recipe.

My husband harvested a giant chicken of the wood mushroom from our yard. He sauteed it and made pappardelle in our Phillips machine. Topped with toasted hazelnuts and chive oil.

Gotta ask: have you seen the movie Phantom Thread?
I haven’t been able to look at mushrooms the same way since…
