Ania came home today with some fresh zucchini blossoms and a ricotta-like Italian cheese and said we should figure out something to do with them. So we found a recipe online and made stuffed squash blossoms. Made a stuffing mixture of ricotta, parmesan, chopped basil and oregano, and egg yolk. Dipped them in a light batter of tonic water (we didn't have any soda water) and flour. I've fried maybe twice in my life, so we made a giant mess in the kitchen We had some nice tomatoes and basil from the Italian Grocery, and then used the leftover stuffing to make some baked cheese toasts. All pretty yummy! Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
My grandmother made that too! Only a couple of times as its a major ordeal and finding fresh squash blossoms is hard, unless you have a mess of them in your backyard...T
Made cookies for my moms birthday. I dont know if I'll ever bake again. They came out okay. I like cooking a whole lot better. Image Unavailable, Please Login

Son of the Year!! I like cooking more than baking as well. The latter requires precision, accuracy, reproducbility, etc. F that, that's too much like my day job! T

Pizza night again (our third attempt). Fun and pretty yummy! The dough came out pretty different from last time. It wasn't nearly as springy tonight, it was firmer and thus I had to roll it out. At least one of them came out sorta round this time Mine had sausage, onion and olives and a bit of fresh mozzarella - in addition to the base of tomato sauce and shredded mozzarella.

We’ve got to where we get the pre-rolled and folded dough from Publix bakery section - haven’t looked back ! Fairly round .. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
The Central Market chain here does the same. It's pretty good quality dough. In a pinch, this is good too. Also from Central Market. Image Unavailable, Please Login T
Lol. I was curious how you pronounce it. Just got home from and early dinner with my parents. We were the only ones there (4pm), as we left two cops came in to eat and there was a lady picking an order up. I used to frequent this place once a week before the virus. It was sooo good.

Fish cakes tonight. Salmon. Leftovers and still excellent. Corn was ok, pretty small, from Costco. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Image Unavailable, Please Login Homemade lox. It's more like salmon jerky. Should have tried a taste last night. May have cured faster than the 48 hours specified in the recipe, as it was a pretty thin piece. Soaking in cold water now to desalt a bit. T
Image Unavailable, Please Login Lox. After overnight soak. Image Unavailable, Please Login On a slice of beer bread, cream cheese, dill and fresh cracked black pepper. Not bad. Not very smoky, but decent intensified fish flavor. Image Unavailable, Please Login Made a batch of beer bread. Find the MIL's ancient sifter. Definitely lightened things up. Also, tried to incorporate the beer into the dry ingredients with the minimal amount of mixing, so as not to overwork the batter/dough. Image Unavailable, Please Login Ancient sifter!
