Weekly Cooking (and related issues) Thread

My mother-in-law used to get frozen Blue Hake from the Schwan company; they don’t seem to have the unbreaded kind anymore, but this recipe for Savory Blue Hake from Genius Kitchen, which used to be printed on the Schwan’s box, will also work with cod, haddock or whiting. My husband also used to just dredge these filets in seasoned flour, and fry them up in butter:

If you have a good bakery nearby, sometimes is not worth the effort to make the bread.....unless, of course, you have an Italian baker’s secret recipe.

I too like well cooked fish.......the partial cooking thing, yuck! I always bake my salmon (just did a large filet on Wednesday). Drizzle olive oil over it & wrap in non stick foil. I would love to sear in a hot pan & I love crispy skinned salmon. I can’t stand the smell of fish lingering which is why I bake it. Skin is inedible when baked so it goes in a cup for the dog’s breakfast.

Any tips?

Oh, no tips, I'm afraid. When it comes to adventurous cookery, I generally stick with baking. I did get an amazing, salty skin on my salmon last week because my pan was smokin’! Delicious.

I agree. This is why the Parisians rarely bake. Why bother?!

Only two things make life worth living - true love and home grown tomatoes. ;o)

Joanne Weir's recipe: a scoop is nice on a crispy waffle for a weekend Lenten breakfast.
Maybe add a sherbert dish of supremed Sunkist oranges and sliced strawberries on the side.

INSTANT BLUEBERRY FROZEN YOGURT / Just eyeball the quantities
Blueberry syrup, small container Greek yogurt, sugar or not, 3-4 c frozen blueberries, ice cubes.

I didnt think of adding meat b/c it’s suggested as a Lenten meatless dish.

But if it works for you...........bacon would be delicious.

This easy Amish dish works well for a meatless entree.....crisp, flavorful, and very tasty.
Maybe a side of baked zucchini spears stuffed with br/crumbs, chp garlic, fave herbs, and ol/oil.

AMISH ONION PATTIES

Mix 3/4 c flour, tb ea sugar cornmeal, 2 tsp ea baking powder, salt (can use less) ---
batter is thick. Stir in 3/4 cup milk. Add 2 1/2 cups chp onions (2 small onions).

Saute tbl batter in heated 1/2 inch oil in skillet on medium high heat---flatten slightly.

Brown on both sides until nice and crisp. Drain on paper towels.

I’ll be making it today as I already have some nice spinach in the fridge plus our own dried san marzano tomatoes and various cheeses. So since it’s not Friday the bacon goes in, thinking just a few strips cut up and precooked.

i guess i can cook some fish - salmon has enough flavor that i think it’s fine just seared, nothing else needed. i like to get it a bit carmelized on the top so it has a crispinesss to it, then moist underneath. yummy combination

i wouldn’t know a turkish spice if i came to my front door and moved in!

We tend to only get salmon when it’s warm enough out to use our charcoal grill. Just with some fresh dill laid on top.
