Food and Recipes while under Coronavirus quarantine #8

I immediately added this to my hold list, and just started it yesterday. I’m listening to the audiobook while I’m traveling. Thanks for the recommendation!

The Korean food and recipes are fascinating although I must admit the “raw pregnant crab floating in a bowl upside down to display the eggs” definitely did not appeal to me.

heard this author on the radio... very touching

I have just come across what looks like an easy and tasty recipe for chimichurri -- Argentinian green sauce.

Is anyone here familiar with it? If so, can you tell me what other meal components it should be served with with?

Thanks in advance!

Yeah, they look like a yellow turnip, but I much prefer the flavour to that of turnips.

I grew up having them mostly in my mother's stew (which I disliked) but these days, I tend to have them roasted with other root vegetables and such in the oven, roast chicken optional.

They're a bit much to have a lot of on their own, in terms of flavour, but they're lovely with an assortment of other things.

Soup update, I just dug through my spice cupboard and added - chicken stock, powdered garlic, pepper, chili flakes, a garlic and chipotle spice blend, a bay leaf... And I think that's all? I was just chucking stuff in. Tastes pretty good already.

I love raw turnips. When I was a kid my Mom put them in stew and told me it was potato. Obviously it tasted different and had veins, she was sneaky like that …

I've made that! It's so good. Steak with chimichurri is the best. Also you can dip just French bread into it. It's good on all types of potatoes and veggies. It's pretty versatile, I've never had it on chicken but seeing you can do it. I bet it would be good with shrimp.

There's this insanely good Argentinian dish, like a steak with ham and cheese, lemme see if I can find it... Argentinian steak milanese napolitana.

It's like Argentinian steak parmagiana.

Those don't recommend the chimi with it, but we used it when we made it for dipping. (I don't think ? the second recipe includes the ham, either.)

Thank you!!

I don't eat steak (or any beef) but I eat chicken, pork/ham, and of course all sorts of vegetarian dishes. It sounds like the chimichurri would go great with lots of things. Maybe salmon too?

I will have to try it soon!
