My delivery arrived early this morning so I had time to vacuum pack the fillets and get them in the freezer before leaving for work. I froze 6 portions approximate 10 to 12 ounces each. Perfect size for two. And kept one fillet out for dinner.Easy work night dinner.Mixed fresh garlic with olive oil and red pepper flakes, salt, pepper and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and marinated the halibut for 15 minutes.Grilled the halibut and served it over grilled zucchini with a Kalamata Tomato Salsa, made with garlic, lemon zest, fresh basil, salt, pepper and a little olive oil.

After looking at Easter dinners, I'm craving both @kayb's ham and @Norm Matthews's Cornish Game Hen.
I worked all weekend so I never made a traditional Easter dinner. Might do one on my days off this week.Last night I grilled a NY steak.Served with sauted mushrooms and steamed broccoli.-

Power went off just before I got home from work last night so I never got a chance to finish the cake that I started yesterday morning.I baked the cake for a Boston Cream Pie and made the custard before leaving for work and had intended to assemble when I got home.So I finished it this morning.Let the cake and custard meld for a few hours before cutting.Moe had a piece for lunch.This is a favourite recipe that I've been making for over 40 years

Line caught fresh halibut from B.C just came into Sobeys. $4.99 / 100 gm! Guess I won't be buying any until they actually go on sale...
@Dejah, I hate to tell you this, but I never see it less that $4.99/100gs. That is the sale price here the first week or two of halibut season and then it
quickly goes up to $5.99 or higher. Except for halibut steaks. They will often have them on for slightly less. Unfortunately, I don't care for the steaks as
much as the filets.

Gorgeous Ann. Overnight - do you mean the remainder of your bulk, or you proofed overnight? I ask, because my enemy is over proofing - even at room temp and with no humidity, I’m in the oven by about 1 1/2 hrs.
Truly beautiful. Any polish or bif a process, or straight ferment?
@paul o' vendangeThe overnight rise was just a bulk rise. It was straight up discard and tiny bit of yeast. Enough for a slow overnight rise. Didn't bother to make a biga or preferment. It was ready to shape and proof around 4:00 AM this morning.
I've been doing this a lot lately. I'm usually up between 2 and 3 am so if the dough is ready to go around that time or shortly after I can bake even on days that I work because I don't leave the house until sometime after 9:00.
And I have been baking in my new oven, which means I can bake three or four loaves at a time unlike the smaller, one at a time, in the CSO.

The photo is not very appetizing. My fault for plating the Quenelles and then spooning the lobster sauce around them. They kind of got lost in the sauce. Should have added the sauce to the plate and then topped with the Quenelles.I have always loved Quenelles, but I found the flavour of the salmon, not quite as delicate as halibut or another white fish.If I make them again it will be with halibut.

@Shelby, are your chicken strips just floured or bread crumbs? It looks like a nice light breading. If I didn't already have dinner planned I would be making chicken strips.
