Still too hot to turn on oven or even stove top.  Our annual rainy season in Central Mexico is late...usually starts early June.  

 

Grilled shrimp over corn and black bean salad.

No, I haven’t. Sounds like an idea, though … I’ll give it a try next time - thanks 🤗

I was unclear - lemon squeeze on potato near end of cooking, not after

Lazy streak continues: salmon burger with sauce remoulade, salad, pickles and tomatoes on a (commercial) brioche bun, accompanied by some nachos (too lazy to make even oven fries) …

Yet, no complaints 🤗

My dinner last night was Spicy Chicken wings.

Made in the crockpot and service over sticky rice with steamed broccoli on the side.

Excellent recipe.

Sounds good--I tried to follow your link but it sent me to Yahoo.....can you try to link again?

@ShelbyYour meals look great, especially the Peach strawberry galette for dessert !

Lots of thunderstorms and tornadoes all around us. We've been lucky as all extremes, like golf ball size hail and plow-winds - within a 30 mile from us, have gone around our city. Lots of rain, and now of course, weeds and mosquitoes!
 

Forgot to take a picture until after plating: Pork ribs in brown bean paste, eaten with baby bok choy & jasmine rice

Chicken fillets from the freezer cooked up quickly with curry and onions, and sesame chicken - both delivered to a friend's home as comfort food in time of loss of a family member

There was enough leftover for our supper

Noodle bowl last night. 

After a few recent house guests I realized how important it is to take offerings to the table in prep bowls. DH likes lots of habaneros and sliced jalapeños. Custom add-ons. House guest meals---pizza, tacos, noodle bowls. All custom for family and close friends. Stacks of vegetables to the table in Meis-en-place containers. Easy prep ahead. 

So for just the two of us I have been doing the same. Extras at the table. Choose your add-ons. Ikea prep bowls. 

On the table in prep bowls, guests can add what they want...lettuce wraps, corn tacos, or just a fresh salad. Pizza can be all veg or blonde no tomato. We have no vegan friends but some family members are annoyingly vegan. No problem with three standard 'choice' meals. Pick and choose at the table...

I did not think I wanted a marinated ramen egg but had one with avocado at the end of my bowl...love the broth.

Post 50th class reunion

 

A bit of Gold    :)

 

52994246250_3509f349bc_b.jpg

Realized the other day that a year from now will be 45 for me.

I doubt anyone will organize a reunion, though. There were only 12 in my graduating class, and I doubt any two of us live within 1000 km of each other these days.

San Marzano tomatoes with a drizzle of balsamic, Ziggys creamy green coleslaw and three pork ribs. (I owe @blue_dolphinfor those ribs. Straight from the freezer then 450°F for 35 to 40 minutes. I have a large Ziploc bag full of rib portions!).

Marsh Hen Mill yellow grits, then a layer of Boar’s Head chorizo sautéed with red onion, garlic, and tomato concasse. Topped with roasted poblanos and roasted red pepper. Super colossal shrimp tossed with Rick Bayless’s green chili adobo. Finished with Neuske’s bacon and chive. And some shrimp gravy.

I wasn't able to pre-salt the salmon for this dish for as long as I would've liked (overnight, basically), but I got the Donabe out:

 

IMG_9579.thumb.jpeg.2b7c4c625b643117d7adf187b8237196.jpeg

 

Fresh wild sockeye (with a little albumin coagulation), with hijiki and ginger. Koshihikari rice, cooked in dashi, sake, mirin, white soy, sesame. Sometimes I forget how good donabe rice is, because it's so easy to just turn to the rice cooker. But this rice had a lovely crust, and look at how beautifully separate the grains are...just fantastic.

Fresh spinach goma-ae.  Other than having to wash 2 big bunches of fresh spinach 3 times each, the sesame dressing makes the spinach delish.

It was the only thing acceptable across the five grocery stores I went to earlier in the week. It was better than expected, not outstanding but not bad. It's the best thing around in these parts, for better or worse.

Chorizo and olives over pepperadelle tossed in saute of leeks, shallots, white wine, lacinato kale, a couple inches of tomato paste, chili crisp.

*Mulay's chorizo, women owned, heritage bred, no sugars. lean and tender.--Misfits

Sometimes we need to settle for what's available. I stock prosciutto, chunky bacon ends, when I want a bit of porky in chowders and seafood dishes--proscuitto crisped in the oven.
