It's Lobster Season here in Caracas at the moment. The restaurant I cooked at last month is doing a special lobster menu; lobster rolls in a brioche bun, lobster Thermidor, lobster vermicelli, lobster grill...
I think I might just see whether me and the wife can get down there for a faceful of lovely lobster...
The place I'm currently working with: chef told me today they've got through 120 kgs of lobster since last Friday :hyper: :hyper: :hyper:

I did a deal with a mate who goes diving. I said could you get me a couple of paua (abalone) and a few crays.
Well he called here on Monday with 10 crays and 5 paua.
I am giving him.a selection of my preserves and a couple of boxes of beer.
Cup day here will be well provided for.
I also have whitebait for patties.

There's a question that vegans often get asked and tonight i find myself asking it as well.

Hubby cooked our evening meal. Cauliflower, carrots, asparagus with the tahini and herbs dressing.

"Where's the protein?" I carefully enquired.
"It's what we had last night..."
"Minus the leeks, the mushrooms, the peanut butter and the tofu dish"...

Protein was eaten later...

Tahini has protein. About 3g per tbsp apparently. Peanut butter has 4g per tbsp. I am probably teaching grandma to suck eggs. Tofu has 9g per 100g.

Our tofu has 3 times that at 24g per 100g serving.

I just put some broccoli in a pot with a little water (to steam away), salt and herbs de provence, and virgin coconut oil.
The main course will be an open faced pork sandwich with mashed potatoes and gravy from the other night. Leftovers :thumbsup:
Or as I like to call leftovers, fast food.
