this week

• pineapple kale peanut stew, quinoa
• tofu with garlic sauce and chili oil (not unlike this), brown rice, maybe a couple frozen dumplings
• taro with curry leaves and tamarind; coconut rice
• salad with blood orange, julienned beets, and pecans (yes, more, I have one more baby beet and one more blood orange)
• pain au levain with roasted garlic (got a ton of great german red garlic at greenmarket)
• south Indian liver curry
• omelette with mahon ($6/lb at westside market? wtf, ok), pan-fried potatoes with tasso

I neglected to post things recently so this is a mix of made and unmade stuff of late.

• sweet and spicy razor clams
• pan-fried skate wing with diced sausage, shallot, and pepper (I was going to add smoked paprika but it didn't need it. It was perfect).
• sourdough focaccia (BBA poolish focaccia where poolish replaced by 8oz of 100% hydration starter plus 6flour+6water)
• sourdough chocolate cake
• polenta with broiled turkey sausage, rosemary, and garlic. The coarse white Three Sisters Garden polenta is the real deal. It takes a minimum of an hour and a half to cook and it retains a brilliant corn flavor.
• salad with blood orange, julienned beets, and pecans
• blood orange olive oil pound cake
• black-eyed peas with fenugreek and tomato sauce (methi lobhia)
• frittata with salami, potatoes, and red pepper
• taro with curry leaves and tamarind; coconut rice
• Vanilla parsnip soup
