StephanieL Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 I got N to start growing Jimmy Nardello peppers and they're finally beginning to ripen, so tonight's dinner will be fusilli with a pepper and tomato sauce. (We've already had a few simply sauteed.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilfrid Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Oh I have been stewed in Italian wine many times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maison rustique Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 I might finally be getting the hang of cooking for one. A loaf pan fits nicely in the toaster oven with supper for tonight and leftovers for another night. Penne with a little creamy white wine tomato cheese sauce topped with paradise locker (local purveyor) bacon, soffrito and more cheese.

small h Posted July 30 Author Share Posted July 30 I usually cook for one, and I can tell you that the purchase of a 1/8 sheet pan will change your life. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
small h Posted July 30 Author Share Posted July 30 My cukes are starting to mature, so I made salad of roasted squid, cucumber and mint. Very refreshing! Also some roasted avocado squash. And hey, @maison rustique, I made the squash and then the squid IN THE SAME 1/8 SHEET PAN, so easy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilfrid Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 I have eaten over a pound of goat stew in two sittings and it was so good. Random luck finding cuts of goat without so many little bones, this was mainly slices cut across the leg. And good decision to stew it for a very long time in a little wine.

maison rustique Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 My sis brought me some pasta salad on Friday and what she said was their last home grown tomato of the season. So, last night I had some pasta salad, tomato and a bit of potato salad that I'd made the other day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
small h Posted August 4 Author Share Posted August 4 (edited) My Premio tomatoes are doing well this year - looks like I'll get a least a dozen if things go well. And one was ready last night! So I put it in a salad with a couple of Sungolds. also from the balcony, and some lettuce i grew upstate. Plus cukes and red onion. I also had a ton of herbs and a handful of beans, and I'd scored a nice piece of seabass at Tompkins Square greenmarket. Gotta get rid of some of that sage and tarragon!

small h Posted August 6 Author Share Posted August 6 Cod with sorrel sauce, king oysters with sage. And a nice burn on my palm from grabbing the hot pan handle yet again, what the hell is wrong with me (I have a lot on my mind, is what). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MitchW Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 Roasted five ears of real Jersey white corn, procured earlier in the day at the greenmarket. I'd never done this in the countertop oven; came out great. Buttered, served with a Greek salad, with greenmarket tomatoes, lettuce, cukes. Olives are hiding under it all. Sometimes this is all we need in the heat (I did eat two ears of corn).

small h Posted August 6 Author Share Posted August 6 Sorrel on my mind! I love sorrel and grow it on my balcony. I don't think I even had to plant it this year - it just came back from last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneakeater Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 My sorrel sauce is so good it's no wonder Pierre Troisgrois stole it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
small h Posted August 6 Author Share Posted August 6 Mine was a lot less involved, but maybe I'll take a shot at the Troisgros one when I'm feeling ambitious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
