Dinner 2022

This may be a little bit of an unusual paring but it worked for me.  Matzo balls in chicken stock finished with lemon zest, garlic chives and chili threads.  Served with roasted brussel sprouts with bacon and Villa Manadori aged balsamic vinegar.

Another WW dinner, air fryer egg rolls and fried (brown) rice. You can't see the gloriously orange egg yolk of the local egg I scrambled into it, but the most beautiful egg we've had in a long while.

This is pure comfort in a bowl.

Yo-yo weather!
-30C yesterday then -1C today! It's 11:36 pm and it's -3. Makes for treacherous roads - black ice, and for part of the day, the TransCanada was closed. That's the stretch we have to drive tomorrow - another trip to Winnipeg for medical apptns.

Meanwhile, supper tonight was steamed whole pickerel with ginger, green onion, and cilantro. I get these whole dressed as well as fillets from a fisherman from Gimli, MB  - Lake Winnipeg. Have been coming to our city for several years, 3 times / year. I always stock up. Whole or 1 lb fillet baby pickerel is $10.00.

Barley flavored with pomegranate molasses, cinnamon, cumin, chopped pistachios and golden raisins, topped with sautéed red onions, orange pepper and kale, and broiled eggplant marinated in mint and garlic.  Plus some feta cheese, cilantro and pomegranate seeds.

Sichuan twice cooked mahi mahi

 

 

 

I doubt there is anyone in Sichuan knows what mahi mahi is! I'm not sure I know! 😂

 

But it sure sounds interesting. I have eaten double-cooked fish, but it was always freshwater fish. But then I love fish - cooked or not!

 

I'd love to see your recipe.

I'm pretty sure that no one in Sichuan knows what mahi mahi is!!!  But I really like it - it's firm and meaty but flakes and stays juicy, and it's pretty affordable as wild caught fish around here usually isn't.  I'll put the 'recipe' in RecipEgullet - although I don't usually use a recipe for stuff like this - just a rough framework - it's actually quite similar to a mapo tofu, but with less liquid and doesn't need thickening.

Love the flavors. I am also a fan  of zucchini w/ mint and garlic.   do the Melissa Clark (as taught by one of her mothers in law (Italian). 1/8" slices, tossed with olive oil and salt and then broiled till begins to brown. Then toss with mint and minced garlic. Sometimes I mix basil and mint or just use basil. Also nice with some yogurt mixed in.

When it's bonechillingly cold, and you're frustrated with trying to work because no one will return your phone calls, you revert to comfort food. White beans, cornbread, kraut and cocktail weenies.

 

And wine.

Continuing my pre-Chinese New Year clearance, tonight's dinner was a sort of leftover bánh mì or three. Made with homemade chicken liver pâté and roasted rabbit meat, plus the usual accompaniments. No pictures, sorry.

Roasted a pasture raised chicken Wednesday---storm prep. Usually a Sunday meal. Chard and collards. Smashed potatoes. Extra credit a frozen packet of wild rice stuffing from the holidays. Then a stock from the carcass. Last night a chicken and wild rice veg ginger soup. 

5 pints of chicken soup for the freezer and 4 1/2 pints of stock. 

Storm prep, check, done. Lots of choices if we lose power. Pantry and freezer good. Stuffed. My stupid odd grain obsession I just want a good white basmati or anything simple. Nada. Lots of noodle choices so that is good. A bag of 'sticky rice'.
