Sunday 24 February
Today was Lantern festival in China, but we
were so not going to have the appropriate specialty, glutinous
rice balls. So we were grateful that it
is also Lent, and fishy specialties are widely available.
We bought some fresh salmon
fillets, which we roasted along with asparagus.
Ho-hum for us, but we also did something we haven't every cooked before:
quinoa, everybody's new favorite supergrain.
We made it this way but without the goat cheese, basil, or parsley,
because it's winter, for heaven's sake; so it was just quinoa with oil-cured black olives. Tasty, and it seems very forgiving to cook;
we'd like to try it with something lemony next time.
