What's for dinner tonight?

[OldG]

The night before last I made pizza. We have a local Portugese grocery that has the best selection of pastas and sauces I have ever seen.

I got this sauce.. The best pizza sauce from a bottle I have ever used...not sweet...just tasty perfectly seasoned sauce.


I was feeling homesick for Newfoundland so I soaked some salt cod and made these for lunch. Salt cod fish cakes.
They are almost as good as mom makes.

The biggest problem with the retired covid cooker.....Sometimes you don't want to cook.

What should we get.....ask my son... I hate take out Everything you make is better.

ITs flattering but it doesnt cook a frozen chicken...if you know what i mean

Speaking of.... Man ever since i started cooking turkeys right from frozen, i do it with chickens too. Roast them whole....from frozen...in a frying pan (a big one). It comes out GREAT (takes about 2 1/4 to 2 1/2 hours at 325)

Pineapple fried rice from last night

Never had pineapple in fried rice before. What's the theory behind the pineapple. Looks nice, there for a bit of sweetness?

Need some radish recipes fellas for the crop I'm about to harvest. I'm going to jar/can some but apart from the usual salads I eat with eat I'm drawing up a blank. Was thinking about frying or roasting them.

Super fizzy and spicy water Kefir. Been keeping it going for about 6 years. It's a real treat.

I grate the daikon radish, and ferment. Will pick up a couple this week and document in Skunky's fermented foods thread, if you have interest. End product is used like sauerkraut. Will keep in the fridge for several months.

Yeah, adds some sweetness and some acid. Also, when cooked over high heat the sugar on the outside of the pineapple caramelizes and it goes really good with salty food!

I'm not retired but I feel ya completely...there's a reason I haven't been posting much in this thread lately... COVID cooking burnout hit hard...

Plus all I want to eat lately is dumplings, pho or al pastor, all of which I can cook but are much easier to order, and honestly, I like theirs better haha

Yesterday....i made a slow cooked pork roast with chorizo and fajita seasoing packs...and i had this pineapple vibe from someones fried rice.
So I used pineapple juice to deglaze. And that turned out really good
All the enchilads are gone....the 16 year old ate all the whole enchiladas. 6 foot 3 1/2 and still gaining height....WTF...my eyes come up to his shoulder blades now.
