If you had been at my house for dinner tonight

Posted in cooking, food at 8:53 pm by Hanne Blank

Here is part of what you would have had:

Sockeye salmon steaks au poivre fumé (With my thanks to the glorious Barbara of Neopol Savory Smokery, who made the smoked black pepper! Hi Barbara!). For another view of the salmon steak, click here.

I served the salmon along with with spinach stirfried with ginger and garlic; spears of sweet Japanese cucumber; and jasmine rice.

For dessert:

That’d be fresh, peeled lychee in a bowl of ice, one of the easiest and most delicious finger-food desserts around. (Do it with cherries, too, it’s outrageous. Or tiny sweet plums, like Methleys. Fantastico. For extra points, serve in a big crystal bowl, or if there ain’t no one around but us chickens or you, like me, haven’t got a crystal bowl, any old bowl will do, really.)
