What is Your Absolute Favorite Dish?

[TXSWFAN]

If anything can top that, it has to be full of seafood, like a bouillabaisse, cioppino, or maybe paella. I am pretty happy if I can get some barbecued shrimp in garlic, rosemary and hot oil, as my sister does it or the very similar dish at Pascal's Manale in New Orleans.

I really enjoy cioppino. But its a complicated dish to make, so I don't make it as often as I should. What's really easy and incredibly delicious is Louisiana BBQ shrimp. The best part is sopping up the sauce with toasted French bread.

Pasta tossed with sauteed garlic, olive oil and parmesan, topped with a few sliced green onions and cracked black pepper . . .

Muss, there is a little pizza and pasta place down the road from me that has a dish you just might like.

It's called Steve's Favorite Pasta Specialty.

It has Pasta in a butter and garlic sauce, topped with feta cheese & freshly chopped parsley.

I can't begin to tell you how good it is!

Roast leg of Lamb with what ever sides you could name and a Merlot.

Ahhhh, Hackfleish!!! I havent had that since eatingat a great restaurant located in Lubeck-and across the strret from a boarding house that Rommel and Guderian lived in.

Some of my favorite dishes to make are grilled Mahi Mahi with mango avocado salsa and coconut rice, carne asada (I have the best marinade recipe if anyone wants it), fresh cracked crab with artichokes and an ultimate favorite, SUSHI.

Here is a picture of a sushi dinner I made. One of my favorite sushi rolls I make is sauteed ****ake mushrooms with nigori saki and a drizzle of sweet soy paste. John makes his own smoked salmon which makes delicious rolls too with sliced red pepper, cream cheese and spicy Kiware sprouts. Fresh cracked Dungeness crab (that John catches) for CA rolls. We go all out for sushi.

Tho I don't "DO" fish of anykind--you make a great presentation of it. Now--if the meat was substitute turkey-and ill show up for dinner.

Chocolate chip cookies. They have all the ingredients for a balanced diet: Flour for your grain, milk and butter for your dairy, sugar for your energy, and bean-based chocolate for your vegetable. Additional protein and fiber may be provided by choosing the chopped walnuts option.

The chocolate chip cookie: it's Nature's Perfect Food.

I've never tried frying turkey but I bet I could make some good sushi rolls for you using panko crusted fried chicken. . Sushi rolls are like a burrito, they are only as good as the ingredients you put into them and many different things will work.

An authentic Bouillabaisse...with an equally authentic Caesar Salad, anytime...anywhere.

I am a meat and potatoes kind of guy, and sometimes I get my culinary on:

Stuffed quail with chopped mushrooms and Monterey Jack cheese, wrapped with strip of bacon and a sprinkling of Lemmon pepper:

Cooked on post oak, which got a little hot:

But they came out OK:

Wife says it was her favorite meal and that is all that matters

 

[Wee Hooker]

I don't know yet. I'll tell you tonight after the wife makes dinner. She is an amazing cook who is full of regular and tasty surprises.

 

[p8riot]

Venison backstrap, marinaded in merlot for 24hrs coated with a spicy dry rub and wrapped in uncured bacon, then smoked over applewood. Problem is I can't get it all year.

Oysters in Snail Butter or, the almost twin dish, Charbroiled Oysters


Oysters in Snail Butter
4 dozen oysters in their liquid
1 cup finely chopped parsley
4 large cloves garlic minced
1/2 lb (2 sticks butter)
Salt and pepper to taste

Place oysters and their liquid in a large skillet and heat to bubbling.
As soon as the oysters plump up remove them with a slotted spoon and place them in a bowl.
leave the liquid in the pan and reduce to a few tablespoons of thick brown, rich juice.
Let cool to room temperature then add the rest of the ingredients and simmer till the butter
is melted, then add the oysters.

Place one or two oysters with some of the butter mix on a slice of french bread and eat.
have lots of french bread to sop up the sauce!

Charbroiled are done with similar seasonings on the half shell on a grill over a charcoal fire
Both hard to beat!

Oyster Rockefeller from Felix's in the Quarter. Oysters are close to being the perfect food.

Pizza Margherita is my favorite, but my husbands special meal request is usually Paella. Been using this recipe for decades.

Where do you find sushi grade fish? I catch the salmon, I'm interested in Blue fin, Yellow Tail Tuna, Halibut, Uni, Ebi, etc. to purchase.

Thank you!
