Thanks. Some friends and I were just talking about wanting to go for Portuguese food but really didn’t want to drive to Newark. South Amboy will make it so much easier to indulge.

Tonight’s dinner was Peanut Butter Chili Oil Noodles topped with white sesame seeds. I got the recipe from “Yeung Man Cooking” on youtube. It was really good, but I need to thin the sauce a bit more. So just a minor adjustment for next time.

Every time I see a photo of your meals I do a double take because we have the exact same tile and grout on our kitchen counters! We built our place in 1991 and did the tilework ourselves. DH built the cabinets just like his father taught him. We used unstained natural cherry - it has aged beautifully.

Is there a point to marinating the salmon in miso for that long? Serious Eats did a recent test about marinades and how little time is actually required for pretty much the same result.
I’ve brushed miso on baked and grilled fish just before cooking with delish results, but wondering now whether a longer marinade would render it… even MOAR delicious.

So cute and a great name!
Give those allergy shots time to do their magic. When we adopted our dog, I gradually realized that immunotherapy could likely help my somewhat allergic self. Took a little over a year before my symptoms started to lessen. The dog also has a bath monthly to reduce dander, which agrees with her skin and coat (plus, bonus treats), but guessing that’s probably not suitable with a cat.
The things we do for the love of our pets. Totally worth it.

We’ve lived with Australian Shepherds for just about 25 years. They have long, double coats. I could vacuum two or three times a day and still not have clean floors. They shed twice a year - once from January to June and again from July to December. I literally pick up handfuls of dog hair from corners and under furniture. I found a woman on Etsy who spins yarn from Aussie hair and knits hats, scarves and gloves with it!! As far as I know, neither one of us is allergic to them, though.

Flavor and texture. The others are salmon with a glaze, which is nice, but not the same as the Nobu dish.
I think it was ATK that said 6 to 24 hours was sufficient, but there is a marked difference. Also to the saikyo miso method of evaporating alcohol and dissolving sugar vs just mixing everything together.
I meant to go for 2 or 3, but didn’t feel like eating it then, so 4 it was. Bit firmer than ideal from the extra day, but I was under on miso so not a lost cause.

Thanks. Was just looking at recipes for eggplant agebitashi, which has a similar flavor profile and is equally easy. Can’t wait to make this.

BF cooked tonight and I gratefully stayed out of the way. He used the slow cooker to make the Mississippi Pot Roast that has made the rounds of the internet. We also had giant baked potatoes and steamed green beans (microwave from Birds Eye). I’d say for the effort to flavor ratio, this is a pretty good recipe. I did suggest to him that we put the resulting gravy in the defatter before serving (which was a good choice!). Now we have leftovers for a meal or two.
