Fish tacos for lunch, bean stew and spaghetti squash for dinner and tomorrow’s lunch. Chanterelles and red lentil sprouts over toast for an afternoon snack.
 
It was really, really good!

I had a wonderful dish in Binz this summer, called Vitello Tonnato 2.0. It was grilled tuna with veal tartare and a lemon and capers mayo.
When I saw tuna steak in the shop, it kind of sneaked into the cart and then it developed into this as Mr Althea and I talked about it.

The reason he got the deep fryer, was because I had deep fried rye bread in Denmark and he said he could easily make that at home, if he only had that deep fryer he had been looking at…

Haha, can completely imagine that conversation taking place. 😂

I just saw a police horse earlier this evening (the reverse Pippi horse) and thought of you, so it was nice to see you posting here again after a while.

Our police horses are moving from where they have been before by the race track.
Don’t know yet, where they will be now.

Youngest Miss Althea didn’t get conscripted, so no military horses in the future either.
I’ll have to come visit reverse Pippi!
 
Quick, easy, delicious,

It’s so nice when the veggies are at their peak. Makes cooking very easy and tasty!

Today’s lunch is beet croquettes (store bought because of today-me’s schedule and yesterday-me’s laziness), fried egg and horseradish sauce.

Dinner is salmon, chanterelles and zucchini.

Yes Ma'am, I LOVE it when the fresh produce is abundant, especially the tender, straightneck yellow squash!

I also LOVE seeing what you're cooking and eating regularly.... Top notch food porn!
 
Still debating for today. Last night I had red pesto butter beans and it was incredible. Wanting to make something today that has some leftovers.

I might make a batch of kimchi today. Wishing I were near an Asian market to get some Korean chives.
 
I was going to mostly have a weekend to myself, but I got sick 😟.

My poor me meal from yesterday:

Because Kaiserschmarren is comfort food at its finest and edible despite having razor blades stuck in yout throat - well, at least half a plate or so.

Bit less sore today, so I might try a bit of hot and sour soup with egg drop for lunch.

I hope you feel better soon and have a speedy recovery!

Kimchi is so good! What kind do you make?
My Wife sent pics of today's harvest. Does anyone else notice the subliminal message?View attachment 2388880
This looks very inspiring, I’d be happy to get my hands on all that!

Yum but I’m sorry you’re not feeling good!

Lunch was spaghetti with some leftover chanterelles and zucchini from yesterday. Just added a bit of olive oil and white balsamic on them and down the hatch.

Dinner is beet soup, eggs and horseradish.
 
It’s baking weather! 😍

Focaccia(-ish) is in the oven, cardamom bun dough is rising. I haven’t decided what form to bake the buns yet. I might make some with cinnamon filling as well.

YUMMY!!!
Many years ago, while deep in the mountains in Mexico, I found the "village baker."
She baked sooooo many wonderful breads and pastries of all kinds (in a huge earthen, dome oven) that I lived off of for 3 days, happily!
 
Aloo gobi. The tomatoes were a lot more liquidy than I expected and now I’m desperately trying to boil out the excess. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Edit: it turned out really, really good, but the cauliflower was a little overcooked because of having to boil it down a little longer than expected. The flavor was possibly the best I’ve achieved so far. I’m glad there’s lots of leftovers!

Baked salmon and parsnips with sautéed sheated woodtuft mushrooms. Drool.
Proof of life upon request!

Somebody read the wiki article and noticed that the mushrooms are not recommended for consumption because they have a deadly poisonous look-a-like. I’m alive, I didn’t eat the wrong mushrooms. 😂

I’m pretty sure this same situation happened once before when I posted about eating a type of morels which also are deadly poisonous if not prepared correctly. I should probably stick to only posting about other mushrooms that don’t get people worried.
 
I pureed the leftover parsnips from yesterday and turned them into flatbreads. Filled the flatbreads with tomato, red onion, spinach, chorizo, yoghurt sauce and red lentil sprouts.
 
Sunday was the first day of fall, and right on time the weather turned cool-ish. We celebrated with ham and beans with cornbread. Yum.
