Oy vey. I posted that from my phone and it seems to have gotten away from me. I meant to add that the photo is from my Instacart shopping when I ordered the potatoes! I usually think of new potatoes as small. These were nice and chunky and largish.  This was actually my first time using potatoes in baked fries. I do it with zucchini fries all the time, but usually use frozen fries for baking.

 

PS - Your entire meal looks fabulous!

Thank you, ma'am!  I'll look for those later.  So, thin skinned, but bigger and it looks like they were peeled.  Honestly, have you ever seen someone so fixated on fricking potatoes?  I am a carb fiend!  LOLOLOL

I had Ronnie pluck some doves instead of breasting them out so I could roast them.

this is one of my favorite shapes , not that I use a smaller Pot

 

for the pasta , esp meat pastas

Pot roast, ready to go in the oven.

(I splashed the wine when I poured it over the meat.)

 

On my plate, with great beans from the garden.

I didn't make gravy, but saved the jus to make it when it's time to have this over mashed potatoes.

After this discussion with @weinoo:

 

we walked roughly 5.5 miles (roundtrip) and went to Wu's.

20200912_183836_HDR.thumb.jpg.94c28f1eba7a7ae9a6da584a7ce6104e.jpg

 

We started with their wonton soup

20200912_185950.thumb.jpg.a665e7a7cc15a076f9e35d49525c66f1.jpg

As advertised, it was really good. A nice combo of a whole shrimp and some pork meat, with a super thin wrapper that had a silky texture. But I wasn't a huge fan of the occasional bit of bone hiding in the pork meat.

Peking duck, served in bao. Duck was perfectly cooked, I dare say better than at my old friend Yee Li. Great skin, very little fat. And they had no problem giving me the carcass to take home.

You need some vegetation to wash down all that duck. Stir fried ong choy. As is typical- not good for my arteries but good for my mouth, fried in pork fat.

Pulled Pork never looks that great, but it's tasty... some pickles on it for a bit of a crunch.

Nice job, @KennethT!  Almost a little jealous, actually.

I roasted some assorted colorful peppers on the gas range top, and marinated them in olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, herbs. With wine last night...

Assorted montaditos, with feta, anchovies, cherry tomatoes, and those peppers.

 

I spent some time yesterday, and my technique is definitely getting better...

Filled with pork, chives, scallions, cilantro, chili oil, soy, sesame oil, Shaoxing wine, pepper, garlic, and ginger. I always cook a little piece to taste before stuffing. Mmmmm...
