tilefish, fresh garlic, herbs; tomato, leek, spinach
Note to self: Despite the circumstances of its genesis, this meal was very, very good. Having been reminded yesterday that there probably wouldn’t be be time to put meals together on three of the next six nights (because of performances which would get us home pretty late), I made a list of the more perishable …
Tilefish roasted on leeks, bacon; cress; parsnips
Memory and my own documentation suggests that last night’s meal appears to be only my second exposure to Tilefish, in my kitchen, or possibly anywhere else, and I can’t understand why this delicious fish has been such a stranger. I don’t think the species is very well known here, and it may have a narrow …
smoked seafood pâté; seared porgy, herbs, lemon; greens
I had bought two packages of smoked fish salad at the Union Square Greenmarket on Saturday, thinking we’d need that much for 4 people, but we only opened one of them that night. The 2 of us would share the contents of the other container on Monday and Tuesday. a composed smoked fish salad, or pâté, …
butter-sage-cabbage-parmesan gnocchi; cheese; mirto
This concept is brilliant! How about the possibility of serving a delicious homemade-like pasta without boiling anything, meaning no waiting, no heating up the kitchen in summer. I picked up a single package of this gnocchi while at Eataly a few days ago, because I had been thinking about gnocchi, and the immediate selling point, at least …
herb-sautéed whiting, lemon; cucumber, leeks, tomatoes
We love whiting, but because we have it so seldom I’m only reminded of just how much once we sit down to enjoy it again. This meal was an excellent reminder. one 12-ounce whiting fillet from Pura Vida Seafood, rinsed, dried, cut into 2 pieces, seasoned with salt and freshly-ground pepper, placed inside a heavy tin-lined oval …
porgy, ramps, herb mix, lemon; corn-fennel-tomato salad
Because we loves porgy, I chose porgy from among the selections offered by one of our local fisher families at the Union Square Greenmarket on Monday. Soon after that I spotted some small, seductive, perfect specimens of 2 vegetables I immediately imagined combining to compliment the fish on a warm summer evening. When I arrived home, I was …
sautéed whiting, scallions, herbs, lemon; potatoes, greens
It’s an excellent fish. Unaccountably, it’s less expensive than many of its culinary cousins (hake, cod, halibut, sea bass, tilefish, pollock, ocean perch, or porgy, among others) but demand and celebrity dictate these things in the food world, and the restaurant world, pretty much the same as they do everywhere else. It’s also a good-looking fish, even …
porgy with tiny leeks, mixed herbs; sautéed fennel, tomato
Before I headed out to the Greenmarket on Monday I had noticed that the tomatoes on the windowsill were beginning to gang up on me. I decided I had to incorporate most of them in the entrée that night. After earlier purchasing 4 porgy fillets, I picked up a young fennel bulb, thinking I would incorporate it …
porgy, herbs, oxalis; garlic-oregano eggplant, fennel buds
Only after I had plated fish and the vegetables did it occur to me that they would have looked so much better had I thought ahead and included some color, like any one or more of the tomatoes in various colors sitting on the window sill across from the table. Still, even unembellished, the entrée was scrumptious; I don’t …
