here was sunday night’s dinner which was actually quite wonderful despite the photo.�
the potatoes were� csa yukons – small one’s – boiled and then flattened and then put in a hot pan with some olive oil for about 3 minutes a side as recently seen in the ny times mag ‘potato tostones’ recipe.� i sprinkled them with some truffle salt.� i don’t seek out potatoes especially in the summer – but delvin, my csa is growing them and yukon’s are my all time favorite potato – hands down.� last�saturday i�received a bag of red potatoes and i gave them away.� along with the second white cabbage.� along with the green bell peppers.� along with some of my pride.� but hey, i forgave myself.� (one of the things i am working hardest on�at this late stage in my life.)
the rib eye steaks were local grassfed beef from ‘west winds farm’.� i am fortunate to be the proud owner of a TEC infra-red grill and this baby goes to the proper 900 degrees needed to achieve�that steakhouse crust.� i just hit them with some�grey salt and then we threw�them on the heat along with some shucked corn.� the meat was very good�albeit not lobel’s…��
but the salad – it�was amazing.� somehow it was just perfectly and simply great.� romaine with some heirlooms, fresh garlic off the press, olive oil and balsamic with smoked salt�and some black pepper.
so not overly pretty – not fancy�or complicated.� but a dinner that just wants to make you say ‘god bless america’.
and while we’re being thankful, i would like to also�say, god bless all you food crazed people out there like me who UNDERSTAND that using 3 different salts in�three different components of one�dinner is not a silly thing to do. in fact, au contraire.
but i get snickered at by my friends.

[…] And since the Mr. (Roth, not Softee) and I both had big lunches yesterday, a full-on dinner just wasn’t happening. So I took the rest of the tomatoes from my friend’s garden, chopped ‘em up with some basil from mine, and topped it with good balsamic vinegar and a sprinkling of smoked sea salt. (Thanks for that idea, Claudia!) […]
