LOVE your bowls and plates and the color of your walls.  Beautiful shrimp!  What is in the bowls with the limes?

Maybe water to use like a finger bowl after peeling the shrimp? What a gorgeous bowl. Love the feet on it. Wish I could see a close up of that bowl! It looks like cut glass?

Correct @kbjesq, they are being used as finger bowls, and are cut glass.

This is the house of a friend who lives nearby. She's very well travelled, and not afraid to pay excess baggage charges to bring back beautiful things.

That was a gorgeous, inviting luncheon table you laid for some very lucky guests.

Cook's Illustrated Pasta Frittata with Sausage (you can also find the recipe here)

 

@Xilimmns posted this over on the dinner thread and I thought it looked so good that I stopped by Sprouts on my AM walk to pick up the sausage so I could make it.

Been on the road for a few days eating mainly at uninspiring truck stops, but today came across this small place serving the loveliest jiaozi I've had in a long time.

 

Light, freshly hand made and very cheap. Served with a very simple soup of chicken stock and Chinese chives and a soy sauce/vinegar dip.

Turkey Breast 'Salad' on sourdough bread :

 

I ate the other half, and realized this was so good I thought Id post

 

Turkey Breast was de-tendon'd, placed in the CSB w bacon on the top.   Steam-bake  30 min @ 300 F.  Thermapen'd 140 at that point and removed.

 

the CSB fits two TB's on the rack over the drip pan nicely.   they are cooled and used for lots os things later

 

as good or better than SV and a ton better than anything you can buy at the deli.

 

mayo / Sauer's PrimeRib seasoning  ( a little  it has rosemary in it ) and Window Green Onions   ( they grow in a yogurt container near the window and last

 

a long long time, changing the water every few days w a Root-Rinse .

 

the tendon issues are here :

 Simple but oh so good.  Pasta tossed in a sauce of nothing more than Suvir's tomato chutney and cream. And a side of the green pancakes which I had for dinner yesterday evening and for breakfast this morning. Why not?

[Tere]

So the green pancakes are clearly horrible then

[Tere]

Also this is the chutney to which you refer?

 If you make this tomato chutney you'll move to the Darkside!  

[Tere]

Heh. The darkside sounds tasty

 

[suzilightning]

Scanning this topic from '02 brought back a lot of memories from when I first joined eG

Lunch today.  Home from work early. 

Poured a Old Chub Scottish Ale with a legal Cuban 

 

[Shelby]

Heh.  I like the name of that beer.

 A day or two ago I attempted a recipe for Kerala chicken curry in the Instant Pot.  It fell far short of being successful. I failed to blend the spice paste sufficiently and so it was unpleasantly gritty with unblended coconut and spices. I attempted a recovery by straining it but this resulted in a very thin sauce.  Still it was tasty enough not to toss so here it is topped with some roasted cauliflower.   The cauliflower was definitely going south but roasted it was fine.

A sad lunch today. I'm on the road and this is all I could find. 

 

 

 

Instant "seafood flavor" noodles. "No flavor" would be more accurate.

Lunch yesterday, lentil salad topped with an egg (a chopped clove of garlic added to pan firstly)
