Dinner was salmon poached in blood orange juice. It was the most unappetizing thing I have ever seen or made. The juice made the salmon turn a disgustingly putrid shade of grayish purple. Absolutely gross. Rice and broccolini were fine but I couldn't get past that nasty looking salmon. And it was dry so I must have overcooked it. I gotta stick with the grill from now on.

Both of those sound like they would be tasty... Are they both from Tangs Market? I wish they would bring some of these hawker-inspired dishes to Canada. I suppose I could make some of them myself (chee cheong fun or kway teow hum.... would be the hard part... you can't store it for more than a few hours... too cold and they become hard and unusable... too hot and they spoil quickly)...
Including the char siu pows on other thread ;) , just had another 3 ‼️ Will post in a bit |

More comfort food: sloppy joes, broccoli and corn on the cob. First time I’ve used fresh garlic (from my garden) in my cooking. I can still taste it this morning. The corn was just okay: small ears and not a whole lot of flavor. But it’s nice to see it on the vegetable cart that comes here every Wednesday. Also bought the first Plant City strawberries of the year and they are wonderful. |

Somebody needs a lesson on the concept of melting....both cheese and butter. :p
Is corn from your garden? Seems early! We have a vegetable cart that parks by the clubhouse for 4 hours every Wednesday. They supplied the corn. It takes too much room to grow in my 20x20 patch. There’s good corn available locally. But this is pushing the season. I picked up seeds for my spring garden this afternoon. I will attempt 2 types of green beans and make a three bean salad (adding canned kidney beans). I am also attempting cantaloupe for the first time. I will need to water faithfully. Radishes and I forget what else. I will plant tomato and pepper plants as it’s too late to start from seed. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.fly...b6edf1d1c0.jpg |

Santa Cruz beach boardwalk supper:
orange chicken over white rice - should be very similar to Panda Express / Sysco.

I fill them with minced garlic and fresh rosemary and roast. The veggies were butternut squash and Granny Smith apples seasoned with ginger, nutmeg and cinnamon. I bought very skinny asparagus so just cut and steamed.

BBQ pork sliders and fries - Ali’s Wood Fired Pizza Clermont, FL Excellent pickles. Mrs BV had their vegetarian Stromboli, which I don’t think is correct. It’s probably a vegetarian calzone. Half the vegetables are garlic cloves. Halitosis wrapped in pizza dough. I had a pint of coffee Porter followed by a pint of an IPA from Suncreek Brewery which shares the building with Ali’s. |

They are good, but as someone who doesn't eat a ton of meat -- they are very dense. What you see eaten is about where I stopped.
