I have been eating cherry tomatoes with mozzarella balls & basil, plus BLT sandwiches (veggie bacon) every day for a couple of weeks, for the same reason: it seems like such a waste to cook all the tomatoes down into a sauce. Yes thereās a glut now, but soon enough Iāll be looking back with fond memories.
In fact, Iām already missing the peaches, and I had the last of them only yesterday!

oh dear dog, no!
i truly hope we as a a global population (8 billion by Nov this year? oi!) have not got to the point of eating bugs on a mass scale. [:shudder:]
and wonāt someone think of the poor farmers having to wrangle creepy-crawleys on a large scale operation! nightmares!
oh, nonononoNOPE!

I can say right off the bat that this list canāt be trusted.
Item #2 in the list, Eggs, is inaccurate. US eggs are not sterilized, theyāre just washed. It doesnāt weaken the shell. It removes the outer coating that keep bacteria and spoilage from entering the egg.
European chickens are vaccinated for salmonella, and donāt need to be washed.
Given how badly glossed that all is, I wouldnāt trust the rest of the list on anything.

Made tortilla espanole for brunch with friends we havenāt seen in a year-worked very well. Went traditional with just eggs, a bit of onion and the potatoes. And the summer fruits made a great salad-yellow watermelon, cantelope, and peaches. Itās been a busy few weeks and food has been basic and fast.

Obligatory PSA: People who are allergic to shellfish, or have asthma or are allergic to dust mites, should use caution around eating mealworms (and other arthropods).

What a blast from the past! I used to make this in London in the 1980ās. A little late in the season to start doing it again, but I suppose I could use purchased fruit instead of whatās left in the garden.

Very nice results with high-proof rum instead of brandy, too.

And they typically need to be watered down or otherwise mixed to gel properly.

Salmon season is upon us. I usually cook in a 300* gas grill with avocado oiled, salt and pepper, skin down on aluminum foil folded into a tent.
Sometimes the skin sticks but to flesh will lift off easily.
