Smoked salmon, salami, Parmesan, chicken liver parfait. Served with toast. Should be in snacking while eGulleting thread but tonight it was dinner.

Smoked salmon and avocado sandwich.

Rice bowl with edamame, pickled carrots, smoked salmon.

A nostalgic Russian dish of potatoes and canned meat (тушенка, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tushonka). Made with slow roasted pork.

Yes, near kimchi, miso, bubbies pickles. It has no sugar or coloring added. The taste is slightly sour, not too salty, very umami rich.

Avocado and seaweed on Dave’s Killer Bread. I found these seaweed in Whole Foods and love it.

@Kim Shookthank you. The crab meat was perfect, I simply tried not to ruin it.

What do you do with onion skins?

Bought some place in Napa, don’t remember where. The color is pretty but I don’t really taste the currants.

Yes. Skin adds color. I remove the outer layer and wash the onion prior to cooking. Grandma used to collect onion skins to color eggs for Easter. Food coloring was not available.

I had frozen wings dating back to May 2020 (because on eGullet you tell the truth). Too old to roast. I made a traditional Russian dish called холодец. Which is basically an aspic dish usually made with pigs trotters. I blanched the wings, pressure cooked in instant pot for 30 minutes with previously made stock and duck legs confit jellied stock. Added a lonely carrot. It should be served with horseradish but I did not have any. Black currant mustard on the side.

Jumbo lump crab meat ceviche (red onions, hot peppers, salt, lime juice). Dirty rice made with chicken livers, hearts, green peppers, tomatoes, red onions, and super bean black sauce. Non traditional but very tasty.

Jumbo lump crabmeat gently mixed with Mayo, cream, and salt. Topped with bread crumbs. Sunday indulgence.

Me too please and thank you

Dry aged strip steak with sautéed red cabbage. DH started to cut it before I took the picture.

Chili crisp like Lao Gan Ma or Fly By Jing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lao_Gan_Ma https://flybyjing.com

Tofu, avocado, chili crisp on Ezekiel bread.

Leftover drunken noodles. I added roasted carrots, corn, peanuts.

Do they know my husband?

Started to eat my dinner before taking the picture 😃. Steamed tofu with bacon, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, lime juice, hot sauce. Mixed rice. Quick and delicious.

Pork chop with roasted carrots, red wine pan sauce.

Dreck is the word I would use. If I want chicken, I eat chicken. If I want veg, I eat veg. And enjoy all of those.

Beans with aromatics (carrots, onion, garlic, ginger) mixed with beef that was used to make stock. Egg on top. All that goodness for DH. Still oats for me due to weight/COVID considerations.

Rockfish with turnips and salsa verde.

Steak and eggs, roasted tomatoes for DH. I turned one steak slice over, it was only cooked on one side and remained nicely rare on the other side. Tangerine and persimmon. Persimmon was presented to me by a neighbor and I kept it at room temperature until it became soft. I ate oatmeal with chili oil and black garlic. Trying to lose COVID pounds.
