What did you cook or eat today (August 2024)

Something new on offer at the pretzel place:

I understand the dill pickle…with the cheese…and the pretzel dough…but what’s up with the peanut butter?! I also have no idea who “Da Bishop” is.


These are the offerings at the bakery where we got that long Long John:

Fettuccine Alfredo with fried shrimp.

That sounds really wierd, but peanut butter and dill pickles go really well together, believe it or not.

Maybe that’s why, and peanut butter is another common Amish-made item. I bought some butterscotch peanut butter today.

Yesterday's dinner was Japanese, sushi made by actual Japanese people in little Tokyo.
It was good but suprisingly not better than the sushi place we go to at home.

It was a mix of Tuna Toro ( belly) , salmon Toro , prawns, pickled veg and some okonomiyaki.

We also had these Taiyaki, very popular in Japan and very cute!

Was in an Asian supermarket in Duluth Georgia recently and saw those.

Once again it is clean out the refrigerator / freezer time. Chicken breast that I tossed in a skillet and just added stuff and it turned out great. Frozen peas and garlic bread.

I made chicken marsala with mushrooms and shallots topped with a dollop of goat cheese over angel hair pasta. It was pretty darned delicious!

What was the dough issue?

What was the dough issue?

I used sourdough discard, with hardly any extra flour, so I think I overproofed it.
I just didn't give it any attention...

I'm not great at making pizza dough myself. I don't do it often enough I guess. I'm good at bread though.

Last night's and tonight's evening meals.

Frittata, new Zealand yams roasted, saffron cauliflower and broad beans.

tonight's had the full roasted safrron cauliflower with the date dressing along with a pea and rice dish (featuring edname beans, peas and broad beans). I threw the excess saffron water into the rice dish towards the end. I think I need to find a new supplier of brown basmati rice.
