Comfort and Discovery

New favorite thing: GOLDEN BEETS! Sooo tastey. Also Uwajimaya supermarket in the international district is magnificent. This together, well, noms are bound to happen.

First Round:
At Lexy and Mike's abode, after running around Pike's Market, with Fullsail's Wassail and Nikasi's Sleigher intow. Lamb had been rolling around in the back of my mind and palate for awhile, along with and good ol' stand by of marinated squash. Then mac n cheese popped up out of no where, so a mini feast began!

So this was a bit of a mac n cheese cheat, but the thing about the powder they provide, it can be used for the base of a roux. (But some prefer no roux! Hahaha!) And don't for get the garlic!

Yellow squash and zucchini marianted in a zesty Thai dressing: lemon, tanini, dill, tiny bit of thai chili, garlic, lemon grass. The saute if you can't grill it on an open flame.

LAMB! With heirloom tomatoes, garlic, red onion, paprika. Sooo delicious! Lamb was seared quickly on each side, then steamed through with the tomatoes.

Round Two:
At the Green Tortoise Hostel, again with a veggie kick accompanied by vegetarians.Maybe more beets? Korean rice noodles are served with this, just for got to take a photo.

Golden beets (suprise), red onion, garlic, thai eggplants, chantrelle mushrooms. Sauted with turkish olive oil.

Kobe beef slightly seared with a little bacon grease.

As usual, very tasty. Go to your local shops, more countries more varieties.
Enjoy!
