One Summer's Food: Charlie's Lobsters
http://lowersoar.blogspot.com/2009/08/charlies-lobsters.html
A chronicle of food, family, wine and friends over the summer of 2009. Friday, August 14, 2009. We've always bought our lobsters live, taken them home, and cooked them. But now lobster is a commodity. Like sugar, coffee and cocoa prices vary according to supply and demand. Commodity traders try to buy cheaply and sell expensively by being able to access stock when supply is short or demand is high. Of course sugar, coffee and cocoa are quite easy to keep. But lobster?

One Summer's Food: K.I.S.S. Food
http://lowersoar.blogspot.com/2009/08/kiss-food.html
A chronicle of food, family, wine and friends over the summer of 2009. Tuesday, August 04, 2009. Given the number of people now coming on Monday and the continuing lethargy we decide to Keep It Simple (Stupid) and also rehearse Monday which is now definitely going to be meat. But first the young men urgently need an urban experience. We go to Plymouth and they indulge in retail therapy in H&N. On the way we stop at Riverford's Yealmpton outpost and buy two racks. The weather is brilliant. Eat like a girl.

One Summer's Food: Nada!
http://lowersoar.blogspot.com/2009/08/nada.html
A chronicle of food, family, wine and friends over the summer of 2009. Wednesday, August 05, 2009. I have cooked enough of Atul Kochhar's lamb with green chillies to last for three days and there is plenty of salad and fruit so I do not need to cook anything. Nada! I take a chair outside and drink up the silence. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). The cupboard is bare. A fishy tale of two high streets. Fore Street Web Cam. The English can cook.

One Summer's Food: Do the Turbot!
http://lowersoar.blogspot.com/2009/08/do-turbot.html
A chronicle of food, family, wine and friends over the summer of 2009. Tuesday, August 04, 2009. Big Dave has come up trumps and we have a goodly turbot. Given the lack of Turbotiere I need to turn it into tronçons. Here we go. Clean the fish through the gills - do not damage the skin. Remove the frills with shears. Remove the head - you may need to bash the cooks knife through the backbone with a rolling pin. Cut the halves into neat tronçons weighing around 200g. Stir-fried clams with ginger and garlic.

One Summer's Food: A fishy tale of two high streets
http://lowersoar.blogspot.com/2009/08/catch-of-day_14.html
A chronicle of food, family, wine and friends over the summer of 2009. Friday, August 14, 2009. A fishy tale of two high streets. When we bought our cottage in Devon in 1993 Fore Street in Salcombe was really rather different. One by one as the leases came up or the freeholders have realised the opportunuty the shops have converted to either nautical fashion brands or lifestyle boutiques. Meanwhile Dave still has a few fishy ambitions and plans a to sell fish in Salcombe in the future. A van outside ...

One Summer's Food: Family Supper
http://lowersoar.blogspot.com/2009/08/family-supper.html
A chronicle of food, family, wine and friends over the summer of 2009. Tuesday, August 04, 2009. I am up (reasonably) early. It's raining. For breakfast entertainment I look at the 108 hour Atlantic weather map on Windguru. And count fronts. There's a low mist in our valley. In Roses with 5 of his mates. He has experienced nirvana or something like that.Adria's first principle is that:. I have 17 for supper. I ask Giorgio to cover the Baklava as it's raining outside. I pick up the Baklava and pro...Walki...

One Summer's Food: August 2009
http://lowersoar.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
A chronicle of food, family, wine and friends over the summer of 2009. Sunday, August 23, 2009. The cupboard is bare. The young man has been in Scotland - staying with a mate's family and taking in the Edinburgh Festival. The wife has been back in London - at work. I've mentioned various curries and the fun I've been having with Atul Kochhar's book so no need for more Indian here. But how not to spend too much time with that nice leftover piece of monkfish that I froze? In the magazine it's called 'Fish ...
