·Made Yorkshire pudding, which is possibly the least appropriate food for the tropics…at least they looked good.
What are you eating for dinner tonight?

·That looks good, and I fully agree that it will be sad when tomatoes are no longer fresh and in season here. The Roma tomatoes are very nice right now, so although a BLT was an option, we decided on this favourite for lunch today...
Add to the Roma some finely chopped garlic, shallots, basil, some good quality extra virgin olive oil, freshly ground black pepper, and this is one thing where I do add a touch of sea salt. Then pile it on some thinly sliced and lightly toasted (again brushed with olive oil) French bread, and it does not get much better IMO...
A couple of weekends ago we took a bushel of those Roma tomatoes, peeled and copped them, then added them to some sautéed onions, and garlic, and then added basil and oregano. We stewed them for a couple of hours to make our own sauce, so we have a bunch in the freezer now for the winter. Already had some on pasta this week and it was great.
I will also be sad to see the fantastic sweet corn go that we have had this year, and of course the fresh peaches have been amazing so far. I'm already missing the strawberries as they were done a while back now.
Soon enough we will be eating stuff that was all picked green somewhere and trucked thousands of kms to our stores, so I'm eating all the fresh fruits and veggies I can right now!
Cheers, Al

·My wife and I tried making dim sum mostly vegetable and shrimp but she impressed me as she is not known for her culinary skills and they came out pretty good. Not easy to make when it’s something you rarely try

·Homemade Som Tam Pla Ra -- courtesy of my sister in law. It's a Thai-style papaya salad with fermented fish sauce. Punishing heat and intense fish flavor. 😲

··Melbourne AustraliaNot for dinner, but for later.
When we were in Portugal we were introduced to a real treat at a little cafe in Guimares. Traditional Portuguese custard tarts, YUMMM!
So my Darlin' had to travel up country today to take her Mum for a hospital visit, and on the way back they stopped at a country bakery that specialises in European delicacies, now I have four little "tastes of Portugal" to savour with my coffee tomorrow.
What's the bet I only get to taste two of them 😁.

··Ash @ ΩFSo I have no cooking ability whatsoever, but I found this old box of ready to bake scones in the pantry so figured why not I’ll give it a try. I mixed them up, baked them and ate the whole lot, which is more than I’ve ever done in the kitchen in my life thus far.
I then discovered, a few hours later that the box had been purchased sometime during the early part of COVID and that it had in fact expired in March of 2022. I discovered that after being bent over the loo in agony with the worst food poisoning of my life as evidently these had cheese and dairy in them which was well and truly rotten. I had kind of wondered why the insides were beige instead of fluffy white like the box showed.

Thank you for letting that meat rest before cutting it. So many people just hack right in as soon as they can

Rested for a good ten minutes, I wanted to go for it but got stern looks from the two ladies who did the cooking bit.
i just carved it when I was told to 😁.
