Lately, I haven't really spent a lot of time cooking; and it's been awhile since I've hosted because of all the remodeling. But, there have been a few dishes worth noting:
- A couple of weeks ago, I made a vermicelli dish with tofu, a bitter green, and an unknown Vietnamese herb. The greens were quite bitter, and the herb had a pretty strong uncommon taste. But, I mixed in a lot of different sauces - sweet & hot, ginger shitake soy, oyster, etc and the outcome was a dish that actually made me want more as I continued eating. I would definitely consider making it again, and maybe with a less bitter green
- Yesterday, I made a turkey vegetable stew, which smelled great. The turkey broth was made from turkey legs that were roasted with lemon and herbs. After skimming the fat, used the broth for the base of the stew which consisted of red potatoes, carrots, celery, kale stems, green onion, and garlic. It is quite satisfying and the added pieces of turkey meat make quite a difference.
- I also pan fried chipotle sausages with celery mixed with salsa. It was flavorful, and will be served over rice or pasta
