It's rice week. My eyes are on the elephants. A couple of weeks ago I bought this twenty-five pound bag of rice on a whim after I saw it in the cart of a friend walking down the rice isle. I was always buying these puny little bags of rice and running out, mostly because I once cooked old rice and I payed for it. Rice does go bad. Not this time. Now I'm even measuring with my fingers when i cook it. Gone are the 2:1 days. Up to the knuckle or just below for 1 cup of dry rice -this tip from the same friend who sold me on the bag of rice.
Monday: Sweet Potato Blintzes. Already in the works so there's no looking back.
Tuesday: Curried Split Peas over rice.
Wednesday: Otsu My new recipe to try. Thank you, KM!
Thursday: Gnocchi. Rest night.
Friday: Shrimp Fried Rice. BA March 2013. If I can't get shrimp, I'll just use the sauce and substitute some veggies or chicken.

What about you?
Otsu! Yay! You'll have to tell me how you all like it. We're rather obsessed with that recipe :)
ReplyDeleteI know we will love it! Thanks for the recipe and the reminder to check her out more! :)
DeleteUm, I love rice. ...in case you need any extra adults to help consume that giant bag, or something. ;)
ReplyDeletegood to know :)
DeleteThis is such a great series Melissa, I love it. Did I tell you you inspire me to try a new lentil soup recipe? I only recently became a lentil fan and didn't have a good go to soup recipe, but your including regularly sounded so homey and warm!
ReplyDeleteThanks Mel! That's so great! Does the DCFM have endless lentil varietals?
