First up, Tammie Nelson's dinner party (with a big assist from daughter Kimberly!)I had a dinner party tonight and everything except for the salmon was from the Cheverly Community Market.
Raw veggies, so good that (a) they did not need a dip; and (b) the kids all loved them. Thinly sliced kohlrabi, baby carrots, sliced green peppers, scored/seeded/sliced cucumbers, thinly sliced red beets, shell peas.
Fried green tomatoes: thinly sliced green tomatoes, dredged in egg and bread crumbs, two dashes of Crystal's hot sauce each, seasoned with salt and pepper, fried in a very thin layer of very hot oil. Flip them with a fork not a spatula. Serve hot.
Chilled curried zucchini buttermilk soup: from Jane Brody's Good Food Book (couldn't find on the web and too tired to type it in; main ingredients are spring onions and zuchinni)
Sweet and sour cabbage: I followed this recipe except that I served it at room temperature and used soy bacos instead of bacon. It went really well with the salmon.
Fresh bread from the Market
Grilled salmon, marinated in soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic. coated with sesame seeds, grilled in tin foil. (This was the only non-Market purchase!)
Sounds like a fantastic dinner, Tammie and Kimberly! Thanks for sharing with us. I understand that Tammie enjoyed the leftovers for lunch the next day, too, an excellent way to get the most out of your shopping/cooking dollars and time.
