Herring snack platter

Hear me, hear me.... Herring! Ever since I went to the Carribean a few months ago... I loved herring (Dutch style). It was so fresh and intense... I still remember the taste.

They sold herring at IKEA. There were two flavours, INGLAD SILL and DILL SILL.  I got a jar of INGLAD SILL.  I'm impressed with the texture and the freshness of the fish.. but I was weirded about the sugary taste from the clear marinate.  Apparently, INGLAD SILL relates to Ketchup flavoured... Damn, should have stuck with DILL SILL.  It was still very good with bread and small side of veggies!

To be honest, I love anything herring... Herringbone Plait... Herring... shall I go on?

Corn miso soup with napa and egg tofu

My roommate doesn't like tofu... so this is my attempt to trick him.  Such a baby lol.  I got lazy and didn't want to re-boil water just to cook the corn.. and then repeat with the chicken stock from last night... Laziness pays off!  Good soup!

Lemon mustard salmon with sweet corn

I bought the salmon from IKEA, I thought it looked delish and I've been craving salmon.  I love fish... all kinds and salmon is on the top of my list!  I paired it with a sweet corn (drizzled in some maple syrup).  I used a mustard mayo sauce to marinate the fish... remember not to over marinate!  Fish is such a light meat that absorbs marinates too easy... so a little is a lot!  I had one tomato left from last week's groceries... Didn't know what to do so I baked it. :)

PRE-BAKING
Voila!

Parmesan chicken, broccoli and ranch mashed potatoes.

As appetizing this picture is... I got complaints from my roommate that the potatoes were not exactly mashed. That's what he gets for not helping. Bahaha.


I don't like to be wasteful with food. So I try to use every bit of everything. The sauce for the parm chicken is totally the same sauce. No one is judging right? RIGHT?!

Thanks.

Oh yeah, my love sent me a cheer-up. He's so cute sometimes. ^_^


Mmm midnight snack. This is one of the only things my roommate has made for me. I'm actually not complaining. I'm just mildly lactose intolerant with milk... Bubble guts.
