ness Posted May 18, 2015 Author Share Posted May 18, 2015 Just winging it tonight. Got some lettuce and turnips from the CSA, some pretty good-looking shrimp at the local store. Whipped up a vinaigrette of Beaver honey mustard, oil and vinegar; braised the diced turnips in salted water with butter and honey until the liquid was gone and the turnips had a little color on them; tossed the shrimp in oil with lemon pepper, then sauteed and added a little chili sauce, soy sauce and water at the end. Deglazed and reduced down to a thick sauce. Pretty darn good, if I do say so myself! BilletHead 1 John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeD Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Dear Ness: I didn't quit my job in the "big" city to grow lettuce leaves the "right" way, only to have you dilettantes ruin my "artisinal" greens with extraneous perversions like chili sauce and soy sauce and oyster sauce and salt and pepper. It makes my skin crawl selling to white people who live in subdivisions and come to farmers markets and CSAs to buy my lettuce, only to ruin them with cooking and additional ingredients. Listen, I've been growing lettuce for three years, so I know what I'm talking about, right? F*** Dierbergs man! My lettuce rules! Ask anyone. So, please, just a simple wash in purified rainwater, then dig in! PS: Text me, and I'll give you my garden plot coordinates so you can defecate in my produce in there, thereby completing a natural cycle. Take your shoes off first of course. Thanks, Your concerned leaf grower! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chief Grey Bear Posted May 19, 2015 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Update Ness I didn't read your post completely. With all the St. Patrick's stuff going on I thought you were doing a corned beef. I should read more. At any rate, I'm smoking a corned beef. Sorry about that. I have also added a pork butt that I got this morning for $.99a pound! Where does one get pork butt for $.99/lb? Look what I found today Randy!
