Slammer. You inspired me. I researched moqueca, then made it tonight. I picked a recipe online that appeared to come from Brazil, a version with African inspiration. I used plump cod cut into large cubes, fat coconut milk, with coconut oil mixed with olive oil to sauté veggies. Big dollop of jasmine rice. I did sub an Anaheim pepper for the jalapeño. It was great. Even my wife and oldest daughter loved it. Paired with a Zin to cut through the stew’s spices. Thanks, Brad

Hey Brad, so glad you liked the Moqueca!!! It is truly one of the best meals I’ve had !!! So damn flavorful and different than most? Cod is a great choice. I’ve also made it with different seafood, shrimp, mussels, and especially good with Lawyers (Burbot) I catch!!!
Not to mention it’s pretty damn fool proof to make and one pot to clean!!!
Slammer!!!

I made a pot of Jasmine rice pilaf as well. (2 pots)  I sweated chopped onion and garlic in oil, stirred through 1 cup of rice and sauteed a bit to well coat the kernels, then added 2 cups of vegetable stock and put the lid on.

I had to decide (store bought) fish stock or seafood stock.  I had both. I flipped a brain cell and it came up fish stock.  I gave my daughter all the leftover coconut oil, 13% fat coconut milk, and a few other unused items, along with some of  the leftover stew.  She makes her own seafood stock with collected up shells and bones and heads and tails she builds up in the freezer.

We will add a small batch of shrimp resting in the freezer to the reheat.  

Moqueca will definitely reside in the make more than once recipe file.  When my wife and oldest daughter like it, I know it was good!

Beef stew - Stracatto with garlic & pancetta per the recipe.

Well, sorta. I used a super lean buffalo chuck roast, fudged a few other ingredients, and simplified the recipe as usual. For one thing, I sliced some soppressata in place of the pancetta, not to mention playing with the marinade (onion, carrot, rosemary, red wine, etc.).

I thought I had some barley, but in scouring the pantry I found a bunch of lentils, quinoa, and other protein-heavy grains, which I don't figure that I need with all of this meat. I'll cook up some rice to go with it, and probably some more veggies as well.

Soppressata instead of pancetta

Man, Al, I see your fire and wood stove cooking and it brings back so many fond memories of my younger days and scouting days. How I loved everything about it. Walking through the woods to gather wood. Chopping wood and kindling. Working the fire. The cooking. Thanks for sharing pics over the years. Brad

Had TV dinners last night!!! My kind of TV dinner.
Spaghetti and mom’s old recipe for meat sauce that was only made on Christmas Eve!!! Was going through an old cookbook and came across her recipe. Haven’t had this sauce in many many years, and even though it was so good, it made me sad with good memories of my dad. This was HIS FAVORITE and it tasted just like years ago!!! He would have loved it !!!
Slammer!!!

I believe it was a Pinot. My wife is the wine drinker and I had a glass which is kind of rare for me, but beer and pasta is just wrong!!!
Lots of stories about that Sunday sauce too !!! Smells and tastes sure do conjure up memories!!!

Nothing wrong with good pinots.  It looks to dark for a pinot in the pic.  I prefer a "heavier" red that cuts through the spicing of red spaghetti sauces, from good Zinfindels to chianti classico and many Itilian big reds, Spanish bigs, and  etc.  Zin is also the best with pizza!  But pizza brings back the beer.  Hard to compete with, eh.  Full disclosure, I have no sommelier credentials.  Unless volume of wine consumed grandfathers you into some badge.   Brad

Wednesday brunch. Back at it again: French toast (from Challah bread) with blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries, drowning in maple syrup.

OOPS! I did it again, sort of.

Brunch. French toast again. Out of blueberries, so it's grapes and blackberries and strawberries, again under a deluge of maple syrup.

Yup. How sweet it is!

In my last year of teaching we took the grade 8 classes to Quebec City. The trip included a visit to a cabane a sucre on Ile D'Orleans. They gave us a typical Quebecois meal as in old times. It included a lot of beige food such as boiled potatoes and fried lard. It was smothered in maple syrup, which made it palatable.

It’s ‘Burns Night’ tonight. The night to celebrate the Scottish poet Rabbie Burns. I don’t have a Scots bone in my body, but we do love haggis, so any excuse to have it doesn’t get missed here. Haggis with ‘neeps and tatties’ (mashed potatoes and mashed swede & carrots). Marvellous food!

Jonty , that is yum looking. We always celebrate with a Burns dinner, but this year…National Skating Championships are in Wichita. The family is all but living at the Arena to watch.
We will celebrate Burns and Marilyn’s Birthday later this week with Scottish fare and whisky-a 21 year old Belvenie I have had around for 10-15 years. Brad
