This is one of those "Oh my God what the hell there's nothing in the refrigerator" meals. The dish you see in the front is ohitashi, which is blanched leaf vegetables (in this case chard), rolled up into a log, marinated in soy sauce and dashi, then sprinkled with toppings. The rest is egg-drop soup and rice balls.

It has occurred to me that by now you should be getting a sense of how limited our dishware is.

Tasty salad: arugula, bresaola, chopped egg, shaved parmesan cheese, salt and pepper.

Thanks!

Don't worry though; I cook up plenty of unphotogenic curries to compensate.

Braised country style pork ribs, polenta, and a melange of summer vegetables. Made this for my nana and aunt's birthday.

Fresh pasta with corn, pancetta, and sage; slow cooked romano beans. Recipes courtesy of The Zuni Cafe Cookbook, which is a really very nice book. I want to go to their restaurant some day!

Toasted Ham-and-Brie sammiches, with cornichons and tarragon. For when you're feeling all fancy and French-like.

Another Zuni Cafe recipe: Rockfish (the original calls for bass)  with potatoes, leeks, and thyme.

You add cooked chunks of potato into an oven-proof pan with leeks, thyme, chicken stock, and a drizzle of vermouth. When this comes to a simmer you stir in a hunk of butter. Then you add the fish to the pan, basting it in the liquid for a little bit. Next you put the whole pan under the burner for 5-6 minutes, until the everything's colored. Turn down the heat to 500F for a minute or so more to cook the fish all the way.

The picture isn't terribly flattering, but this was one of tastiest fish dished I've made! The fish had a fine flavor, the sauce was richly reduced, and the potatoes were creamy and nicely gratineed.  WOULD EAT AGAIN.

It's 6:30 in the a.m. here, and you made me want lunch AND dinner with those last two!  :D  Beautiful, as usual, Nast!

A rather moody butternut squash soup with bleu cheese:



A salad of frisee, persimmons, pomegranate seeds, and toasted walnuts. Freshly harvested walnuts cannot be compared to those dreary things you get in plastic bags at the supermarket.
