Dinner Friday 16th November

[Kylie1969]

Pac, that sounds errrmmm...nice

 

[CWS4322]

Gumbo... I haven't made gumbo in forever. And I just happen to have a few shrimp.
Maybe gumbo for tonight's dinner. It depends on what kind of sausage I can fine. I'm not exactly in an andouille area.

Pac--andouille is easy to make (it was one of the types of sausages I made when I went on my sausage-making kick last January).

 

[CWS4322]

vitauta, I'll set a place for you.

What do you put in your kapusta? I had some the other day that had Canadian bacon in it.

 

[pacanis]

Me make sausage?
Naaaah...

I'll pick some up whenever I get into a big market. Which better be shortly if I'm going to have turkey next week. The town grocer didn't have anything on their shelves that resembled something I would want to put in gumbo. They don't carry chorizo either, for whatever that's worth.
Thus is life in a farm town

 

[CWS4322]

I have to change my mind. Need to reserve pizza night for tomorrow as I will be working on Thanksgiving stuff and won't want to cook after that. We are going with Joe's Special over rice. It's kind of a hash thing.

Joe's Special Ground Beef, Spinach Eggs) Recipe - Food.com - 96477

Minus the ground beef, that looks like s/thing I want to make for breakfast (using Swiss Chard or kale) with brown rice on the side. Thanks for sharing that link.

You could buy ground pork and ground beef and make your own. I live in a farm town and can usually get chorizo, but since I made some, I no longer want to buy it. I guess my farm town stalks more sausage varieties than your farm town.

Stalks?
If there is any stalking going on, it's in MY farm town

Seriously, I was surprised to see them stocking panko crumbs a couple months ago. I'm not sure when they slid that one onto the shelves. I'll bet we have half an aisle of jellies and jams though

I have never made sausages either Pac...bit messy

 

[pacanis]

The fish was walleye (yellow pike) and not perch, so I decided to give C Maloney's batter a try. I have to say, I'm not a battered fish guy, but it was pretty darn good Served up with some fries and a caper tartar sauce.

 

[Karmagirl]

Heading south on a well-worn track to my parents' home in Florida. This will probably be the last time I see my father, if he lives for the next few days. Anyway, we usually eat at a barbecue place in Paducah that is convenient and close to the hotel that is pet-friendly. So, probably ribs.

I'm sorry it will be a sad journey for you Claire - best wishes.

Pac, that looks sooooo tasty

I love battered fish

Looks great Pac - I often serve my fish (usually wild barramundi or snapper) with a caper sauce (aioli mixed with yoghurt and capers).

 

[Kylie1969]

You make lovely meals Bron

I'm tired--I've been chopping too many stalks of celery this week for my liking! Although, maybe that is what happens--someone stalks the meat market manager to make sure the sausage offered is more than just h'dogs and brauts (or would that be brats...told you I'm tired). And, is your stocking cheese curds? Mine is. But, darned if I could find blackstrap molasses. Nope, the wee little store around the corner (chain grocery store) does NOT, I repeat, does NOT stock blackstrap molasses, just fancy. I want Aunt Diana's!

 

[Karmagirl]

What a shame about the molasses. Maybe there's a city not too far away that would stock it, or maybe you could buy it online? We are pretty lucky in Melbourne - basically if you can't get it, it's not allowed in Australia. Things like unhomogenised milk products, and unpasteurised cheeses from France aren't allowed in. Much to many's regret.

Walleye in beer-batter is SHORE LUNCH food. It also makes great fish for fish tacos...but then, walleye any which way is excellent, IMO.

Wow Pac! That fish looks great, I'm going to have to try that batter!

 

[Snip 13]
