What's On Your Plate???

First of all, who puts chives on oysters :D ;)

Secondly, I have to confess I've never had a whole fish and eaten anything other than the portion of the body you'd normally fillet. I've had soups that use the head and fins for flavor, but again I've never actually eaten those parts. What exactly does she eat? And how?

Those weren't chives; they were green onions (yes I know you knew that and were just joking from an earlier discussion...) ;)

Well there's meat and skin and stuff on them; there's a couple of cheek "nuggets" that are very tender and she's shared with me before, but otherwise I can't really figure it out - for me growing up, the hardest part about eating fish was finding the occasional bone. But she prefers that stuff, just sucks the meat off (TWSS) and spits out the bone.

Really, it's like those old cartoons where an alley cat takes a fish, drops it in its mouth, then pulls out a clean skeleton. Seriously amazing to watch...

Congratulations on that adult film star level of performance. It's amazing you have any kids :D :D :D :D :D

On Monday I did that beef skirt steak and mushrooms with garlic and butter stir fry that's always a winner. Forgot to take a pic but I've posted it here before.

Last night, pork milanesa with a guacamole cream sauce and grilled vegetables basted with white wine, garlic, and butter...

The guacamole cream sauce (left) is just store bought fresh guacamole and cream whisked together and heated. White wine, garlic, and butter baste prepping on right...

After much turning and basting, along with some of DP's applewood seasoning...

The milanesa breading is saltines that I ground by hand in my mortar and pestle (a food processor works, too) and seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic...

Pork bottom round cut wafer-thin, lightly dredged in egg then coated in the cracker meal and pan fried; they cook so fast the one is ready to turn by the time I can get a second one in...

Topped with the guacamole cream sauce and a sprinkle of smoked paprika. It was delicious!
