What did you cook or eat today (July 2024)

[rascal]

We went to a high school graduation party for some friends' oldest daughter. I've known the parents for 24 years, well before they got married. They had it catered by a local Italian restaurant and of course the food was excellent!

Kinda place I would like. And it's free

We had poke for dinner tonight.
An unusual poke, however, because no-one eats greens, or spring onions, or lettuce, or wakame, or anything close.
I added a huge blob of wasabe to mine and my (cerebral palsy) son noticed I'd left something on my plate. He never leaves anything on the plate, so he had mine. Two minutes later , a shriek : "I'm burning up!" then hoots of laughter.

Well if you have to eat soft foods, at least they will be delicious! That looks superb!

I can relate somewhat to your issue, my DH has 4 front teeth that have been bothering him for a few years and they were loose for awhile. He has a brace that holds them in place and is taking additional calcium and vitamin D to make them stronger, plus he gets super duper planing and scaling treatments at the dentist. But at any rate, he has difficulty with biting into some foods and although he can chew, he has to cut his pizza in bite size pieces and other foods as well. No corn on the cob for him.

Yeah if you want to talk about it, we have a thread for health issues. We'd be supportive, of course. When you've got time, feel free to let loose.

A salad with gluten free spaghetti,Romana, tomatoes, red onion, black olives and the last remains of the turkey breast. Delicious lunch.
Vannila oat ice cream, nectarines, cake and a blop of berries jam.

The true cooking fun was the fritters though.
Gluten free Zeppole was the goal. Different recipe, yeast based, different flour. Of which I had to add plus 150 g in the yeasted dough afterwards. Instead of Zeppole, I'd say these are fritters. Or perhaps Snowman's buttons.

Shapewise, they just formed flat circles, a few tear shaped flat ones, one Christmas tree shaped one (cause that is the only metal cookie mould I own).

i had them with a slight sprinkle of powder sugar, berries jam and even ham.

Very happy. In 8 hours time, gone. Eaten. So, they were really good. They had body, character, greasy and juicy, soft, spongy...nothing more for me to want.

Pork chop, sautéed cabbage*, and a couscous entry:

*If I said “sautéed cabbage” to my mom, she’d say, “I don’ care if yah saw Ted er not, but that there’s fried cabbage!”

We had fried cabbage with my casserole last night. I add small bits of bacon.
We love it.

I'm doing some nuggz and fries to try out my sweet & sour sauce I made. It's supposed to mimick McDonald's, it's not exact, but surprisingly close. Really tasty.
