He posted it for halibut but I like it with black cod too, although a decent part of that is I usually have those ingredients on hand.

Most of the time, fish is pretty interchangeable. Not always, but generally you can serve most fish many, many ways.

I can see halibut working with a basil puree. I wouldn't normally think of interchanging halibut for black cod, though. One is very delicate, the other is quite fatty.

I can already tell that you shouldn't be allowed to post in this thread.

Tried the carrot soup recipe last night. It came out wretched. Kwilk, two questions: is a "medium carrot" proportionally equivalent to a "medium Midwesterner?" Second, is your thumb the size of a bottle cap?

I've never heard of using a liquid marinade on a brisket. Typically, I apply a dry rub and refrigerate 24hrs. Let us know how it turns out.

Brisket sounds awesome. If only I had a smoker and didn't live in a condo.

You are obviously nowhere near as skilled as I am.

But yes I have large thumbs. I thought u loved ginger son

Are you propositioning him???

BTW - nice thread idea Grumpy.

Hey, Marbear, where's our chicken leg with chickpeas recipe?

OK, I will give you guys a delicious one. Take 100 g of Puy lentils and cook them in water about three times their volume with two onion quarters and a couple cloves of garlic. Start the water cold, bring the whole thing to a boil and simmer 30 minutes. Then drain the lentils, removing the vegetables and saving the water Put 40 g of tahini, some of the lentil cooking liquid, two garlic cloves, salt and 1 T cumin power in your food processor, or if you have a really good blender like a Vitamix, use that. Run it so that the garlic is minced and the liquid blended. Then put in the lentils with about 50 ml olive oil and run it until it starts to get smooth, then with the motor going, add 100 ml more olive oil. Use more of the cooking water to thin, if necessary, and if you still need it thinner, just add a bit of regular water. Eat it like hummus. It is delicious.

That looks quite good. The lighting in the last photograph is especially nice.
