TJ ordered several items

I had an egg roll, some Hunan beef with veggies and and a couple of items from a pu pu platter.

I think she had egg drop soup and the beef and veggies plus cheese wontons from the pu pu platter

and some broccoli from the Farmers Market

Husband said I should make it again ... was pretty good.

Marinated lamb skewers cooked outside since it's too hot to heat up the oven. For sides, I made a tomato/cucumber/onion salad, hummus, and taramasalata - which is surprisingly easy to make if you can find the roe!

but I use stale sourdough instead. It's bread, roe, onion, lemon juice whipped to a paste; olive oil is then slowly added until it has the consistency of mayonnaise (which it is, in fact, related to).

The hard part is finding the roe. There's a European grocery near me that specializes in items from Poland and south, so that's where I go for my fixes of stuff that my grandmother made. Lots of pickles!

I have had an itch to go to my favorite Polish deli lately. Might even go early next week.. This will be one of my items to see if they have in stock. 30” drive though.
