I want to do fish tacos for supper using Costco frozen cod. Is it okay to just start cooking the cod while frozen? I hope to eat around 7p, which is 6 hours later from now.

I would hope that Mexican Marisco (seafood) restaurants are amazing in your own home area. I love the Mexican seafood entrees I’ve had in Chicagoland (separate from the city of chicago), so I imagine it is delicious all over our USA nation.

Did I give the recipe to you? Or did you give it to me? It's from cooking light.

No, do not cook it while it is still frozen. It should thaw in 90 minutes or less on the counter top.

How do you want to cook the fish? If you want to fry it you will need to thaw it. If you want to bake/roast it you can bake it from frozen. I do it all the time. About 20-25 minutes at 350.

Mr. CE is making matzo ball soup for dinner.

I shop at Publix, they don't carry it. My brother was a manager for them for close to 30 years. It can be special ordered, but I would need to buy a case of 24, and I don't miss it that much. Walmart has lines around the corner as they limit the number of people allowed in the store at one time. They have a footprint 3 times the size of Publix and allow fewer people in at a time than Publix because of Covid-19. I have decided it is not until they allow free access that I will return to shopping there. I take all the usual precautions, because of my wife, and I work in an industry where we never closed as we are considered an essential business (Auto Repair). I just think Walmart is being overly cautious when they can let up a little.

Is he still mad at you for all the spicy food you’ve made lately?

Why would you think he was mad at me?

Currently marinating short ribs (cut in the Asian or Hawaiian style) in a Korean-style sauce. With stir-fried broccoli and white rice.

Details on marinade please! I have a korean bbq sauce; I want to try a marinade with my Costco chicken thighs.

I'm actually trying a NY Times marinade - https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/...yle-short-ribs

But I usually make substitutions and change amounts. This time I differed from the recipe in a few ways: More garlic, about a tablespoon of sriracha, no gochujang, fuji apple. And probably some different amounts of things as I add until I get it to look the way I want.

It made a nice thick paste that's sticking to the meat - I just checked on it about an hour ago and it's still coating the meat. It smelled amazing, so I'm hoping for the best when I throw them on the cast iron grill pan tonight (too cold to grill outside today!). I haven't decided on a sauce yet, but I have a smoked serrano wing sauce which is kind of like a spicy BBQ. It might go well with it, otherwise I'll whip something up last minute.

Bon app and I look forward to the chicken report!

For those who are Korean food fans, check out my friend/distant relative's blog: https://www.baekinkitchen.com/ He's a white guy who wanted to learn to make Korean food since his wife is Korean, and his blog has really taken off.

Our dinner tonight: Roast salmon with lentils, fennel, cucumbers and kefir ranch dressing. I've posted a link to the recipe before -- it's one of those incredibly delicious yet easy meals that is a fav in our house.

ETA: I decided to mix it up tonight and rather than roast or pan saute the salmon, sous vided it for about an hour at 120 degrees with salt, pepper, butter and dill. Finished with a very quick pan sear to make it easier to remove the skin.
