  1. Actually the fisherman I spoke with said it was more a catch yield issuie. Our local spiny lobster is in the $30's/lb. Just not out there. Oceans are changing.
  2. Oh my I just now see Sartoric in the post above you has the triplet. People in very distant places with the same one!
  3. Nice. I have the twin to your little one and use it almost daily
  4. I just called my vendor and they are $21.99/lb and in good supply. These are live http://qualityseafood.net/ My understanding is that the cooked ones you see at supermarkets are often last year's or their kinda dying ones. EDIT: I called again and it is $18.99 live. He said the season is just ok

    Dinner 2017 (Part 6)

    Sounds like US southern collards!
  6. Bacon fat involved?
  7. Finally soup weather here at a brisk 60 degrees and overcast. Lentils, kabocha squash, coconut milk and chipotle en adobo with some some bits of herb & spice was/is comforting and delicious.
  8. I spoke with the SIL of the local fire captain and she said they had been gone for 2 weeks at the various hot spots. He is 55 and sleeping on the fire hoses - not fun. He did not get the food but they appreciate the effort.
  9. Well food play is on the agenda tomorrow so will report back. Still thinking of pre toasting though the 325 longish bake might be enough
  10. Well I'm stuck here with only walnuts so shall experiment - though maybe just meringues with a touch of toasted nut makes more sense
  11. i was intrigued by the Dorie Greenspann 3 ingredient cookies but only have walnuts, Maybe toast first? Any experience? https://food52.com/blog/18962-these-genius-3-ingredient-cookies-will-be-ready-before-the-oven-beeps
  12. Amazing right in the thoes of it work. The best side of food sharing https://www.worldcentralkitchen.org/

    More importantely GPS coordinates please
  14. No this is a person graduated from a well respected university (unforfunately mine) - she is just playin an angle
  15. Back up to the calamari - I have found the tender yet still toothsome and tasty ones around here are made from the tenderized steaks; thicker but not uber chewy
  16. Maybe its buttermilk - that I could handle
  17. I have watched them all. Interesting, thoughtful and compelling. Here is the general link. I love my city https://www.kcet.org/shows/the-migrant-kitchen
  18. It does seem wasteful in an overall frugal cuisine
  19. And perhaps the most cool re-purpose is the ancient/traditional ricotta from whey! Yay! http://www.cheesemaking.com/store/pg/217-Ricotta.html
  20. Hhmmm - I know I saw something recently about drinking the whey, and I see whey protein marketed. Found this article interesting https://www.farmcurious.com/blogs/farmcurious/17599408-cheesemaking-what-to-do-with-all-that-whey
  21. Beet is/was used to color our Red Velvet cakes in lieu of food coloring. https://food52.com/blog/15776-an-all-natural-red-velvet-cake-that-s-truly-red Vivian Howard did one with chocolate on her show here http://www.achefslifeseries.com/episodes/34 recipe: http://www.achefslifeseries.com/recipes/47
  22. I'm with your brother on the wrong weather. I started my radishes which I overplant and use for greens - but - way too hot and they are not happy
  23. Often sold flowering here - stronger taste but I like it
  24. So you don't lke the MW asparagus? I've found it to be a good way to avoid water log. Was interested when Kenji touted it here http://www.seriouseats.com/2017/07/how-to-steam-vegetables-in-the-microwave.html Wow - unexpected mechanical failures - not a happy place. At lesst you have that crazy pup to distract you
  25. Oddly in agreement with liuzhou - my little marble m & p snaggged for I think $3 at the mega local flea market years ago. Used at least several times a week https://www.longbeachantiquemarket.com/
