Dinner Tonight 2/4/2022

[jmcquown]

Sea scallops, pan-seared in butter. Steamed asaragus. Simple and
delicious. You?

Jill

[Sheldon Martin]

Scallops and asparagus is a great choice... just needs something baked
to make it filling, jumbo corn muffins would do it. I like corn
muffins with orange marmalade.
Tonight I ate egg drop soup of diced pork chop, very filling.

Still sea scallops. I decided to bake them. Seasoned with S&P, baked
in a buttered glass dish with cream. When plated, sprinkled with ground
nutmeg and parsley. For a change of pace I served it on Mom's rather
busy floral everyday Franciscan 'Desert Rose' dinnerware:

Look very good. I've never tried baking them but they still have that

It was leftover scalloped potatoes here and some Waldorf salad.

The plate you used is a PERFECT compliment to the scallops and
asparagus, imo. What a nice presentation. I'll even vote that the best
presentation I've ever seen here in RFC. (Sorry Steve but Jill wins)

However... Good entree for a 3 or more course dinner.
An appetizer something might be good.
IOW, not quite a full meal to me. I would want a bit more.

I agree. Cinnamon and Nutmeg aren't the best spices for seafood.

[Lucretia Borgia]

I usually just fry briefly in butter but this is a recipe given to me
by an Italian which, although it looks odd, tastes delicious.

Scallops with Peaches

Ingredients:

25 ml butter
454 g of scallops
15 ml lemon juice
1 ml freshly ground pepper
4 strips of partially cooked bacon
5 fresh peaches (peeled and quartered) or 796 ml of canned peaches
well drained
125 ml grated Swiss Cheese

Butter 2litre pan or casserole. Add scallops and sprinkle with lemon
juice and pepper.

Top with peaches, then bacon and finally cheese. Bake at 180 degrees
Celsius for 15-20 minutes until cheese is melted and scallops are
opaque in colour and just cooked through.



Yield: Serves 4

[Janet]

In article <D1lLJ.6461$jxu4...@fx02.iad>, j_mc...@comcast.net
says...

Nice vintage china :-) I've never tried baking scallops but will give
it a go.

I just pan fry them in butter. S +P, squeeze a lemon.

In reference to Sheldon's idea; my notion of "making scallops more
filling" is just... lots more scallops.

Jill, i'm suddenly wondering how to make peach schnapps, you know?

[Jeßus]

That's a very interesting recipe, what an odd combination of
ingredients. I'd be tempted to try it if I had the ingredients on
hand.

[jmcquown]

It is an odd combination. Scallops and bacon are nothing new. But for
the totality of the recipe you'd need a confluence of scallop season and
peach season to coincide. Or just use canned peaches and frozen
scallops. ;)

Wikipedia has other ideas what 'Poke' is:

Poke /po?'ke?/ (Hawaiian for "to slice" or "cut crosswise into
pieces";[3][4] sometimes anglicised as 'poké' to aid
pronunciation[5][6][7]) is diced raw fish served either as an
appetizer or a main course and is one of the main dishes of Native
Hawaiian cuisine. Traditional forms are aku (skipjack tuna) and he?e
(octopus). He?e poke is sometimes called tako poke in places where the
Hawaiian language is not spoken. [8] Poke differs from other raw fish
dishes in that it does not use citrus fruits as a curing agent.

Your comments and photo suggest you're referring to the roe:

Roe (/ro?/) or hard roe is the fully ripe internal egg masses in the
ovaries, or the released external egg masses of fish and certain
marine animals, such as shrimp, scallop, sea urchins, and squid. As a
seafood, roe is used both as a cooked ingredient in many dishes and as
a raw ingredient.

The original recipse lucretia posted said "5 fresh peaches (peeled and
quartered) or 796 ml of canned peaches well drained". She said she
prefers the canned. Fresh peaches won't be available in South Carolina
until April or so. Lucretia is in Canada on the other side of North
America from me so I couldn't say when fresh peaches might be available.

Gary has a Garish appetite. I'm waiting for summer when the local
apricots ripen, my favorite with vanilla ice cream. May be good with
scallops too. At our last house I planted an apricot tree, I hated to
leave it there. I could take a chance and plant one here but this
climate may be too cold. I bet apricots would grow well in the
Carolinas. They are a relatively small tree, perhaps 20' tall and 20'
wide but may take 10 years to reach those dimensions from a sapling. I
can buy dehy apricots at most any market but fresh picked are much
better. An apricot tree in blossom is a sight to behold.

I rarely eat anything canned, but in this instance I do find the
canned peaches are nicer than fresh. It is an odd dish, but it sure
is good. The man who gave me the recipe was Italian, sadly he died of
pancreatic cancer so every so often I do the scallops this way in his
memory.

I think for the purposes of this recipe, using fresh peaches could be
risky compared to canned being more predicable. Fresh peaches vary a
hell of a lot.

I've found recipes with odd combos like this one are often very good.

If I'd do that, which I won't, I'd do it in a warm climate, not in the
cold. I read a book recently about a Dutch woman and her Kiwi man who
lived like that in the (cold) NZ wilderness. I'd rather be in jail.

True enough but we didn't. David was Royal Navy and his appointer
said we were going to Simonstown, SA. He said as I was marching for
Anti Apartheid he didn't think it was a good idea! So his appointer
said 'Well there is this place Nova Scotia...' and we came here.

Interestingly enough our chief doctor in NS was born in Zimbabwe and
he has done an excellent job of keeping peoples spiritis up and having

The man is a weasel and is afraid to talk to the protestors. How
convenient to test positive a couple days before the protest. I am sure
he will be testing negative when they leave. He has already isolated
long enough.

This is a man who refused to mandate vaccine passports claiming that it
would be too divisive but then dumped on Ontario Premier Doug Ford when
he was reluctant to. Then after all the provinces had the vaccine
mandate imposed a federal vaccine passport was a good idea.

He is trying to pass the protestors off as right wing fascists. Yes,
there probably were a couple Confederate flags and some swastikas,
possible planted. My great nephew walked through the protest area and
recorded a 25 minute video. There were lots of Canadian flags but not a
single confederate flag or swastika. This is typical of his style. He
deals with people with legitimate complaints by dismissing them as racists.

I like canned peaches too. Also prefer canned pineapples vs the "not

You could always fill your freezer with one of those.

[Dave Smith]

I think that would be a great idea. If he really has Covid he could go
around shaking hands and talking up close and personal with no mask. He
has nothing to lose if he already has it and they see no need for masks
or vaccination. He can spread it to them and enjoy an I told you so
moment. However, I am not convinced he really has Covid. It just serves
as a convenient excuse to run away and hide.

This is one of my wife's favourite recipes for a peach pie. It is a
single crust pie and the filling is flour, sugar and sour cream. poured
over the prepared peaches. It is delicious.


Elmira Peach Pie (from the Laura Secord Cookbook)

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.



Prepare sufficient pastry and line a 9inch pie plate. Trim, flute edge,
but do not prick.



Beat with a rotary beater until smooth

1/3 cup all purpose flour

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 cup thick dairy sour cream



Arrange flat edge down in concentric circles in pie shell



5 cups quartered, peeled peaches (about 9)



Pour sour cream mixture over top.



Bake in 450 degree F. oven for 15 minutes

Reduce heat to 350 degrees F. and bake for 30 to 35 minutes more, or
until set.



Sprinkle over hot pie



1/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar



Broil for 2 to 3 minutes or sugar is melted.

Pineapple upside down cake was very popular when I was young. I am sorry
to have seen it decline in popularity. I love it and still occasionally
make one.

In Canada. In Europe. But the US has 50% deplorables.

Biden's a weak president in terms of charisma. The Democrats will have
to come up with somebody more interesting. It's all about how it looks
and sounds, not about content.

Bruce, a little more than 60% of eligible voters voted in 2020, and a
little less than 50% voted for Trump, so that means that less than
1/3 are certifiably deplorable, and it's less than that because a lot
of them are just stupid.
