stove is back on line, (notice the missing adjective)
here was the eats tonight:
firsti: east
asian winter veggie soup: miso broth, you name it it was in there veggies, shallots (my favorite onion), shelled edammame, thick rice noodles, tofu cubes, a sheet of spicy-ish seaweed garnish
secondi: west
warm mediterranean potato salad: a winter white potato from our CSA& kalamata olives, parsley, tossed in homemade mustard and olive oil & cider vinegar
the last of my v-day's gift <- sniff sniff -> dark chocolate 'bar' with Bali sea salt from a local chocolatier.
my thoughts: ahh life is good. the Chef's asian soup literally gets better and better. i had picked up some (organic) tamari after work and he finished the soup with it which added a nice flavor. He will sometimes, create these "clean out the fridge", which is chock-full of whatever vegetable that has taken up residence in our fridge with a bean or a noodle or really both. so the asian winter tonight was just a twist on that with asian flavors and the soy beans & curd tofu, sesame seed garnish and seaweed sheet. The salad! Totally tasty, not too puckery mustardy but just right. And the kalamata olives, so I might be a pushover for olives but i loved it with the warm potatoes, a little mashed but mostly big chunks of that mystery white winter tater. And served on a bed of those baby greens with a light drizzling of olive oil, cidar vinegar and kosher salt. As for you chocolate, sorry to see you go but it was inevitable.
