We have had a few days of knowledge worker meals this week. I've been busy helping L develop her course web site and not paid as much attention to the cookbooks – serviceable but uninspired cooking.
Tonight I almost didn't make anything for dinner except reservations due to a low blood sugar state late in the afternoon waiting for L to come home. But some peanut butter and Brian Eno on the stereo saved the day and, fortified by fuel and music, I plucked something interesting from the precipice of culinary despair.
A nice 2+ pound wild Coho salmon fillet awaited only a marinade and oven-planking to arrive on our plates. The marinade, mildly Thai in flavor, was lots of chopped garlic, fresh ginger, and some hot green peppers mixed with sesame oil, soy sauce and lemon juice, and fresh Thai basil.
Lots of good avanzi!
sounds too healthy but interesting.... mbd
