I don’t often make sheetpan dinners but maybe I should change that. Chicken leg pieces with za’atar, olive oil, lemon slices, onion, and garlic. Roasted at 425°F for 45 minutes, with chickpeas added for the last 15. It was delightful. #food #foodSky #foodAndCooking #homeCooking 🍽️

Za’atar Chicken

Hutspot is a classic Dutch mashed potato dish. Boil equal parts potatoes, carrots, onions, and parsnips, and mash it all together with a good helping of butter and black pepper. Serve with gravy, and an equally traditional Dutch meatball. #food #foodSky #stamppot #foodAndCooking #homeCooking 🍽️

Hutspot

For all intents and purposes this should have been a fantastic dish, and it was, except the “sweet” shishito peppers I got turned out to be some kind of otherworldly fiery ​specimens. So I saved them and turned them into a spicy salsa for another time. #food #foodSky #foodAndCooking #homeCooking 🍽️

New on the blog: The ssamjang / jianbing fusion thing continues. For lunch I grilled a hotdog and rolled it in a toasted tortilla with some shredded lettuce, arugula, and ssamjang. M.’s homemade dill pickles on the side. #food #foodSky #foodAndCooking #homeCooking #fusion 🍽️

New on the blog. I had some leftover bacon that needed to be cooked. Added green onions, bean sprouts, a big spoonful of ssamjang, and folded it into an omelet. Definitely a flavor combo I would recommend and one that I’ll come back to. #food #foodSky #foodAndCooking #homeCooking #korean 🍽️

Omelet: bacon and ssamjang

The title says it all. Dill and pesto are a lovely combination. Together with the vegetables they made for a nice bright flavor. The tuna was folded in towards the end. Add a dash of lemon and maybe some capers for a hint of acid. #food #foodSky #foodAndCooking #homeCooking #pasta 🍽️

Huevos rancheros is more a state of mind than it is a specific recipe. This version was inspired by the West Side Coffeeshop, a Dominican diner that used to be on Church Street near Canal for decades. Recipe at link. #food #foodSky #recipe #foodAndCooking #homeCooking #latinAmerican 🍽️

A simple salmon teriyaki dinner made from what I had on hand. Pan-seared salmon (from the Lidl, great stuff), brushed with Kikkoman teriyaki sauce, with a side of Korean-style beansprouts and scallion salad, and air-fried shishito peppers. #food #foodSky #teriyaki #foodAndCooking #homeCooking 🍽️

Black licorice is a bit of an obsession in the Netherlands and I read that there’s a new kind of candy that combines it with … chocolate. So when I came across these Ritter bars in a Pittsburgh store, I had to try it. (More at link) #food #foodSky #foodAndCooking #candy #chocolate 🍽️
