It looks a bit like pigeon. I love pigeon breast - but does puffin taste a bit fatty, like duck then?

Being smoked it is a little dried, it tastes a bit like smoked duck.

Me too. Sometimes I also add some black olives or slices of red onion (Tropea red onion). It's a very fresh salad, perfect for summer.

Last nights dinner was fish and chips Icelandic style

We had stuffed pepper and steamed broccoli. The pepper you see on my plate is only 1/4 of what I stuffed. It was huge! The "snow" on top of the broccoli is a seasoned Romano cheese blend thingy that I got for free when I did some buying at an area (anything within 50 miles is "area" to us) spice shop. Good for free, but I would not spend what they charge for it. Also, a slice of baguette to push things up onto my fork.

Fennel is extraordinarily healthy too ..

I am a grand fan ..

I like it with citrus or fresh tomatoes, black olives and we have an onion called Calçots ( pronounced Kal Sots ) and they are a spring Green onion with long stems and dangling onion " balls " .. Possibly they are related to the Italian Onions of this genre / type ..

Have a lovely day ..

Looks very lovely.

Bacon and mushroom in sourdough.

Overfilled?

[Edit: Of course the roll was dipped in the bacon fat - you know it doesn't make sense (but I like it)]

Lots of cooking today. I've had a houseful of teens.

Pancakes for brekky
Pumpkin risotto for lunch
Pasta al forno - ragu & shells topped with a 4 cheese mixture that was mainly ricotta.


Then to finally use up the last of the eggplants I made baba ganoush.

Movie & snacks later

Your pasta al forno intrigued me a lot. How did you cook it?

 

[MypinchofItaly]

I had leftover puff pastry roll, 1 slice of cooked ham and tomato sauce. Well, I made muffin pizza....and also a sort of grissini..
Not bad as starter. Tomorrow we'll have my best friend to lunch, so, I think it could be a nice idea.
