They are part of what originally was an appetizer set with a large platter (since broken) and six plates (2 broken).  They were a gift from friends many years ago.  They have cycled around to being out of style and now back in style in the time that we've had them.  

 

I love 'em! Fun to see things cycle that way. Do you remember roughly when you got them?

Already gone through half of the conservas brought back from Lanzarote.

Salted tuna from Murcia, Spain. In Andalucia it's served with almonds as part of tapas. At home I like to smear some tomato paste on bread and top it with oil-drenched mojama slices.

My fishmonger no longer has boxes of 12 oysters, only 25. I ate half today.

Can't use chopsticks worth a damn but no problem with snacks as I can grip them.

Yes, lacinato kale from the garden. It is pretty much classic potato leek soup with kale added. A family favorite.


Thanks ! Would gave never thought of kale in a soup (the German way of treating kale is … different) - but seems this is a different veggie. End result sounds pretty good to me 🤗

I understand, but kale is more of an alternative to what they like to use. This weekend I prepare a half-years supply of Grünkohl (kale), so maybe I am very biased …

It was a LONG time ago.  Maybe 20-25 years ago?  I looked and they have some (including the large platter and a cocktail rimmer) at ebay and other sites.  Here's the back of the plates:

Getting my vegetables in. IMG_20221120_170856.thumb.jpg.2bb5c74d2b662a7bac0c63e48d0b7329.jpg

Store-bought mixed leaf salad, with added tiny tomatoes and radish, dressed with a honey, EVOO, apple cider vinegar vinaigrette and some crushed peanuts. Part-baked (then baked!) ciabatta roll, air fried chicken.

Leftover from dinner last night. Brown rice, grated ginger, little soy sauce. Roasted butternut squash (S&P, garlic powder). Pepitas and dried cranberries. Last night we ate it with roasted salmon fillet.

Kind of an alternative Thanksgiving menu for today's lunch.  Bought a~ 3 lb  half bone-in turkey breast at Trader Joe's and made the Marinated turkey breast with cumin, coriander and white wine from Ottolenghi, the Cookbook.

It came out very moist and flavorful The extra marinade gets reduced to a green sauce with bright flavors. 

Here we are on the plate in the alarmingly bright noonday sun:

Had this with Nik Sharma's Baked Sweet Potatoes With Maple Crème Fraîche (great recipe!) and pan-seared sugar snap peas.  I kept the green sauce separate as I wasn't sure I'd like it with the turkey but it was great so I poured all out once I started eating. 

Too bad I didn't have the cranberry sauce ready.  Could have checked the whole Thanksgiving box and skipped tomorrow!

Wisconsin Brick Cheese


Thank you for that - I had not idea. Thanks to Google I have now and know that Limburger would be the closest thing I could get to it here …
