Salmon's gotta be raw.

Sliced.

Served with ponzu or soy sauce and wasabi.


There's simply no other way.

Paired with?

More raw sliced salmon.

Cilantro/celery, grated carrots and parsnips.

If the salmon is smoked that’s an added bonus.

Chips and beans

^ Saumon en Croûte
Saumon en croute is like the seafood version of Beef Wellington. Salmon filets with a creamy spinach filling and wrapped in crispy pastry dough.

Roasted Baby red potatoes. a vegetable side can be sautéed carrots or broccoli or asparagus tips. basic rules. Never submerged in gravy, no peasant beans and no Brussel sprouts.

Not true at all. I will however say other than pan seared, Tuna should be served raw as you noted Eddie.

Indeed most salmon and tuna is overcooked, just needs a sear and that's it. Tuna still raw, salmon almost raw in the middle. Never bother with suaces generally as the fish should speak for itself, some s&p, butter and a squeeze of lemon

A well chilled Sauvignon Blanc....

I would agree, but not the shitty farm raised stuff you eat that, that is loaded with bacteria which is a good way to get sick. A nice wild salmon however raw is pure heaven.

Nope although I do enjoy fresh peas from the garden but never canned or frozen.

Optimum liquid pairing! Bravo!!!!

Seems he's lost a wheel.



Still, found a rib.


Mrs had the scallops


All in under a ton with wine.

I had a shawarma from the place we had lunch today for dinner....damn good food.

^^Looks like perfectly done meat Mike


The Dogging Diva of Harare dropped in this arvo

Bringing sandwiches from a planned beach picnic which had to be postponed. The Magpies were not slow to pick up on the food surplus.

She brought lamb chops for dinner. I have not had lamb in a few years I reckon. Not very photogenic cold but were tasty reheated in the air fryer.

^ Fukk me Looper.

As much as I'd enjoy a more active sex life... those are no lamb chops.

At some point in life you have to accept a nice home-cooked meal and PornHub.

I immediately thought of pork collar.




And now want to eat a kor moo yang.

Looks like shoulder chops to me.

Hmmmm

I am sure she said they were lamb. They did taste like something that reminded me of lamb although it is a long time since I had lamb.

She is currently snoring like a koala but I will clarify when she returns to the land of the living

When Mendy is given you sex-life tips you know you are in trouble!

^ Yeah well, a silent river snores deep, mate.

Looper, let her snore out, but once she starts snorting and glabbering, sidle on up and do the business.

That' my advice
