Salmon is Served
My visitors are well off, carry four credit cards max, so they don’t worry about cooking. They go out or order lunch and dinner. I’m sad for them because the miss the fun of cooking, of making mistakes and correcting them. They also don’t know what is in the food and how much of it (ingredients).
Canola oil for example. It doesn’t have an after taste. That’s why I think I’m putting too much, since I discovered it last year. That’s wrong. Mama said we should not see cooking oil. It is there to nudge the onions and tomatoes, not provide a swimming pool. I’m trying to be more careful. We don’t know what oil restaurants use but please don’t ask them. You want to use canola oil? Stay home and cook, and not interrogate poor waiters (servers) about ‘trending cuisine.’ We eat out because we are hungry and also to see the rest of the world, since we are joined at the hip with our laptops, at home.
