Ewwwww!😧

Yes, I am hoping local red onions will start appearing to my area soon. I have become quite fond of red onions in salads...after a bit of a soak in water to remove their edge

@scamhi lovely looking meal..as usual it seems....and of course the wine selections rock. Just in case you are not aware there is a risk of salmonella with USA grown red onions...it is recommended to bin them. cheers

Chicken Skin Convection Bake at 425F for 10 minutes to start then monitor. Nice and crispy.

Yup, just checked my red onion purchased last week in British Columbia, Canada...the sticker says "USA". It's in the bin and it is suggested to wash where it was stored and your hands.

I made a Spanish chorizo and squid paella on the Big Green Egg a couple of weeks ago which turned out really well. I do like the Chorizo..just one small one sliced thinly mainly to add flavour rather than meat. I have one more sausage left so that’s what we are having Saturday. I believe I made just 1 1/4 cups of rice so there were no leftovers...hate leftovers.

I am a fan of Charmaine Solomon. She has a Thai cookery book that I have used forever and her The Complete Asian Cookbook has a Thai section. I don’t think I Have made anything from either book that I did not like.

Using Paul P’s gumbo recipe as a guide I made gumbo with Andouille sausage, okra and zucchini. Smells delicious. No picture because a pot of bubbling gumbo is not pretty.

I made the Pancetta Vinaigrette on page 39. So far I have tossed it with warm blanched green beans from the garden. Yum.

Thanks @shain for posting this full recipe. I just made it and I love it. Excellent flavours and very easy to prepare. I used all green beans from the garden. cheers

In Canada, what brands are good. I had a look today but did not buy. Thanks in advance.

'Tis cherry season....from our neighbour's garden. This is the second box of cherries we have been gifted.

Paella on the Big Green Egg Chorizo, clams (canned 'cause that's all I had), shrimp and squid. Delicious.

Great looking meals everyone!! Last night was roast chicken; corn; steamed baby bok choy (in the CSO) and spring onions.
