Shabbat food
Jul. 28th, 2006 07:16 pmFor dinner tonight
I had originally intended to make chicken, but it's just too hot and humid, and I ran out of oven time. And I lost inspiration to make barley with nuts and possibly onions and mushrooms. The idea for polenta with cheese and the roasted zukes isn't interesting, but I think I need more protein... I suspect I'll put out lox and capers with the main course, and maybe some nuts along with dessert. Or something.
Leftovers for lunch tomorrow, plus tomato-cucumber salad with feta. (One guest doesn't eat nightshades, so I have an excuse not to share my tomatoes; else I might've made a corn-tomato salad.)
- grape juice/wine
- multi-grain challah
- fish-corn chowder (without potatoes, but with cod)
- roasted zucchinis
- spicy cucumber salad
- roasted beets (red and gold)
- beet greens and red chard sauteed with onion and garlic
- steamed green beans drizzled with sesame oil and garlic-and-pepper vinegar (the ume plum vinegar having gone AWOL, if I had any)
- cranberry-orange relish
- cantaloupe and blueberries
- sorbet (passionfruit and/or mango tangerine)
