Dinner last night was Red Beans and Rice. 1 bag of red beans, soaked and drained, 1 bay leaf, 1 tsp Tony Chacherie's, 1 Tbsp pepper, salt to taste, and 3 cloves garlic. Fill pot with enough water to cover beans by about a half inch. beans are soft. When beans are almost soft, brown 1 lb sausage cut into 1/2-3/4" rounds. Add sausage and grease to water (it's not that much grease I promise, but if I were a little more disciplined I might leave it out). Continue to cook until beans are ready. If beans are too soupy add a slurry of cornstarch and water a little at a time while beans are boiling.
Tonight was dinner out again. Samurai J. Shrimp Tempura, Spicy Crawfish, Trojan Roll (shrimp tempura with crab) and a little of my friend Tim's Fairhope Roll. I am stuffed, but it was so good! I have actually made sushi from scratch several times, but it tastes so much better when the fine chefs at the "J" make it for me.
Tomorrow night I'm going to a Greek wedding. I expect great things from the food. I'm sure I will not be disappointed. Greek Chicken and Pastichio are on the menu I'm told. Yum!
