Artichokes, homemade Italian sausage (very fennel forward) & chili oil …

 

I adore artichoke on pizza. My fave combo is artichoke, Feta, kalamata olives. But wow, yours just looks so amazingly good!

Shrimp and zucchini al mojo de ajo: Saute garlic and onion, blend with chicken stock. Sear shrimp in the garlicky oil and remove. Sear zucchini, add cilantro, Mexican oregano, and the garlic puree, and cook down. Add shrimp and leftover walleye, finish with lime juice, and serve over leftover green rice. Pretty tasty for a night when neither of us had planned a meal.

On the relatively small screen will be the recent Marcella documentary. 
It will air on PBS on JULY 11, 2025 as part of the "American Masters" series and will be available in their streaming services as well.

I'd devour it and ask for seconds, but that's a gorgeous focaccia if you ask me (you shouldn't ask me)

In Ireland, the food in general was very different to what we had been eating in Provence… naturally!!. 


Lots of fresh seafood presented in a more ‘normal / ordinary’ way. 
 

Salmon and salad with mashed potato!

And a Guinness of course

I had poached a chicken for my brother, who just started dialysis. He had the ginger, scallion, sesame oil dip but missed the salt..."=(
The poaching broth was amazing, with just ginger and scallions. I used some to cook the rice that we had for supper.
To make it a quick supper for us, I opened a can of fried dace, and stir-fried some Shanghai Bok Choy wit a few shrimp.

@rotuts Yes it does look a bit pale for Guinness but I’m pretty sure we had Guinness at that place. Maybe just the way the light is shining on the glass. 

At another place I had seafood chowder which was creamy and delicious. By creamy I mean It was made with actual cream. It was served with brown soda bread. I found some of this famous Irish bread to be better than others.

Miserable day. I awoke this morning at 6:30 and crawled to the kitchen around 7:00 to find I had no water supply. Now 8:30pm and still none.  A major city-wide failure. I've never known anything like it.

 

So no cooking. I managed to find  a tiny pocket of the city with a functioning watered restaurant and ordered this for delivery. I don't know what you call it but the restaurant and I call it a Sichuan flavour boneless chicken and salad wrap. They offer it sauced in four spiciness levels: un-spiced, mildly spiced, damn spicy and what I would call volcanic but for some reason, they call 'tequila'. I went for damn spicy.

 

And damn fine it was, too, despite its looks.

I've been cooking and taking pictures, but have not been posting. So, apologies for the dinner photo dump!  A clean out the fridge dinner of stir fried chicken, peppers, garlic scapes, and bok choy with lots of scallions and cilantro

 

chickenbokchoystirfry.thumb.jpg.13f064dffaa218f57745ae2ebdc8e955.jpg

 

There was an old bag of pretty stale potato chips in the pantry, so I crushed them up, coated chicken with them, and served it over a big salad.

My CSA gave me about three pounds of spinach, so I made it into a pasta sauce to use a bunch of it up in one meal.

Another clean out the fridge dinner of roasted peppers, broccolini and cherry tomatoes with feta over garlicky orzo

We had fajitas another night.  No pictures of those, but I used the leftovers to make big salads on the day it was 101 degrees here.  Steak salad for husband, niece and nephew

 

fajitasteaksalad.thumb.jpg.461577acc5a41251169beab6d975f7c7.jpg

 

and chicken salad for my sister and me.

Last night I tried a NY Times Cooking recipe for grilled honey-lemon-tahini chicken thighs, served with rice pilaf, flatbread, and yet another salad.  I thought I had finally made a good dent in the salad greens from my CSA, but they dropped off a box this morning with seven more heads of lettuce in it...

Dinner was a favorite recipe from Jody Adams In the Hands of A Chef that I haven't made in a few years.  Fazzoletti with lemon cream, pistachios, spinach and roasted tomatoes.

Hosta scapes are showing up big time in the garden. One of my favorite veggies, crispy and tender.

Hosta is a garden plant. The scapes are flower stalks.

er Google returned  this.

 

Hosta - Wikipedia

 

also known as plantain lily, although technically that is just one specific cultivar of hosta.

My search for 'hosta scapes' was just a bunch of gardening shops saying it was out of stock. 'Cooking hosta' worked after gf's clarification
