Cooking for two w̶i̶l̶d̶ ̶&̶ ̶c̶r̶a̶z̶y̶ mildly interesting middle-aged folks in Happy Valley.
TONIGHT: I have a variety of fresh herbs to use up (lotsa dill, basil, mint), and it happens to be Spicy Sunday, so I’ll make the NYT brothy Thai curry with silken tofu and herbs, adding mung bean sprouts, probably a Chinese eggplant and a protein TBD (chicken or shrimp) to the party.
MONDAY: the two Wegner’s chuck & brisket patties will be turned into hatch chile cheeborgerz, maybe we’ll have fries with them this time.
TUESDAY is market day. I plan on getting a peck of green beans to blanch & freeze, although I might turn some of them into Sichuan green beans with ground pork.
WEDNESDAY we have tentatively planned our next ladies night, but if we sit this week out, I’ll make a burrata Caprese followed by TJ’s corn & ricotta ravs with fresh corn sauce.
THURSDAY maybe egg-fried rice with the last of the sweet/salty Lao sausages & a bunch of veg
FRIDAY or SATURDAY could be a poker game at a friend’s house, so no cooking @casa lingua
SUNDAY something spicy.
Happy cooking, eatings & readings, fellow HOs ![]()
