I swear, every time I get a little inspiration from my garden, I plan out this wonderful menu. I'm not the best cook in the world by any stretch of the imagination - probably not even the best cook on the block. But what I can make, I can make really well. So my intention is to photograph the grown or local ingredients, make something, and then photograph the finished dish. The problem is that some time in between completing a dish and then getting the family rounded up and to the table while it is still not, I completely forgot to take a picture of the finished product. And I have done this more than once. So, let's just pretend that I took all those after pictures.
Before pic: the zucchini blossom photo from the last entry
After pic: deep fried zucchini blossoms stuffed with anchovy ricotta served on a bed of pureed tomatoes and basil
Before pic: dill from last entry
After pic: roasted wild Pacific salmon with sour cream lemon dill sauce served with short grain brown rice
Before pic: assorted colored carrots and watermelon radishes from the farmers' market
After pic: said root vegetables cut down and sauteed in butter and a little brown sugar (technically my hubby made this one, but it would have been a beautiful pic)
Envision it all in high resolution, well lit, mouth-watering glory. There. I will try not to forget again.
