Monday night: We had halibut. It was delicious. “Nips and taters” were good, but mostly taters. Still looking for a clever way to cook turnips. The peach salsa was a little disappointing. I liked it more than Spouse did. The white peaches were perfectly ripe but not very sweet. When you combine this with the fact that white peaches tend to have a more subtle flavor than yellow ones anyway, they were overpowered by the onion and the cilantro.
The delightful surprise was how sweet new broccoli is. I have taken that slightly bitter aftertaste for granted for years; fresh, new broccoli doesn’t have it.
Tuesday was Spouse’s night to cook. Last night I had a complete failure of imagination, so I brought home sandwiches.
Thursday: Alaska king salmon, baked, cous-cous (from the store) and a green salad with grocery store avocados and tomatoes but the last of Bernier Farms’s salad mix. I bought a half a pound and it got me nearly through the week. Good to know!
Sweet broccoli? Intriguing…
Not sugary, but lacking that strong, almost metallic afterbite that broccoli has sometimes.
