Spinach: 12 min.                Easy
Whole Dish: 40 min.      
For those who enjoy fish, this is a simple, healthy, light recipe and a real keeper, like so many other simple Greek Recipes.
Cod is the kind of white fish with a relatively mild taste. Combining it with fresh wild spinach and herbs and baking them together in the oven, makes for a great combo and a beautifully easy dish that will be enjoyed by the whole family.
Follow my instructions and your dinner is set! 
INGREDIENTS:
·      750 gr. / 1 lb 10 oz Fresh Cod Filets
·      500 gr. / 1 lb 2 oz Fresh, wild Spinach, washed and strained
·      1 medium Onion, finely chopped
·      1 Leek, finely chopped
·      2 Spring Onions, finely chopped
·      6 tbsp. / 90 ml Olive Oil
·      1 tbsp. / 15 ml Tomato Paste (puree)
·      Ground Salt and
·      Ground Pepper, multi colored
Tumblr media
METHOD:
A.    Prepare the spinach:
1.     Pour about 4 tbsp. Olive oil into a deep pot over medium-high heat.
2.     When it heats up, sauté first the chopped onion, leek and spring onions, stirring regularly, for 2' or until they brown and caramelize.
3.     Next add the tomato paste and sauté it for a min, scraping the bottom of the pot to release its aromas.
4.     Lower the heat and add the spinach leaves. Stir to sauté the spinach all around.
5.     Season with ground Salt and Pepper, to taste.
6.     After 5', you will see that the spinach has shrunk to 1/8 of its original size!
7.     Keep cooking it for 10' more, stirring regularly, so that some of its water evaporates.
8.     Turn off the heat.
 
B.    Assemble the dish for oven baking:
9.     Note: If using salted cod, place it in water to soak, one day before baking. When ready to bake, don't add any more salt!!
10.  For best result, use a round clay pot of 28 cm / 11 in. diameter. Otherwise, use a round baking dish of same diameter.
11.  Brush a bit olive oil on its bottom and sides.
12.  Place the cooked spinach in the dish, spreading it all around to cover the bottom (like a bed for the fish).
13.  On top of the spinach, place the cod filets.
14.  Pour on top of them a couple of tbsp. Olive oil and season them with ground Salt and pepper.
15.  Ready for baking.
 
C.     Baking instructions:
16.  Place the clay pot on the bottom shelf of a preheated oven, FAN @ 190℃ / 375℉, and bake fish for 40' max. (depends on the oven).
17.  Halfway through baking, open the oven and flip the cod filets. Return in the oven.
18.  After 40', remove the clay pot from the oven.
19.  Let the dish cool down a bit for 10', before serving.
Tumblr media
D. Serving suggestions:
Serve the food while still warm.
Tumblr media
Tenderly cooked, moist cod which matches perfectly with the spinach and herbs while the tomato paste gives it just a touch of sweetness.
Tumblr media
For those who would like it a bit sour, place a couple of lemon wedges to serve.
Tumblr media
Easy, peasy lemon squeezy.
Enjoy it.

E. Storage info:
Leftovers could be stored, when cooled, in an airtight container in the fridge for 1 week.

ΜΕΡΙΔΕΣ🍴⃒   ΠΡΟΕΤΟΙΜΑΣΙΑ 🕔⃒
3-4                            15 min.          
ΜΑΓΕΙΡΕΜΑ ♨  ΒΑΘΜ. ΔΥΣΚΟΛΙΑΣ 👩‍🍳⃒
Σπανάκι: 12 min.           Εύκολο
Ολόκληρο το φαί:  40 min.                            
Για όσους απολαμβάνουν το ψάρι, αυτή είναι μια απλή, υγιεινή, ελαφριά συνταγή που πρέπει να φυλάξετε πραγματικά, όπως τόσες άλλες απλές Ελληνικές Συνταγές.
Ο μπακαλιάρος είναι το είδος του λευκού ψαριού με σχετικά ήπια γεύση. Συνδυάζοντάς το με φρέσκο σπανάκι και ψήνοντάς τα μαζί στο φούρνο, φτιάχνει έναν υπέροχο συνδυασμό και ένα πανέμορφα εύκολο πιάτο που θα απολαύσει όλη η οικογένεια.
Ακολουθήστε τις οδηγίες μου και το δείπνο σας είναι έτοιμο στα γρήγορα!
 
ΥΛΙΚΑ:
• 750 γρ. / 1 lb 10 oz φρέσκα φιλέτα Μπακαλιάρου
• 500 γρ. / 1 lb 2 oz Φρέσκο Σπανάκι, πλυμένο και στραγγισμένο
• 1 μέτριο ξερό Κρεμμύδι, ψιλοκομμένο
• 1 Πράσο, ψιλοκομμένο
• 2 φρέσκα Κρεμμυδάκια, ψιλοκομμένα
• 6 κ.σ. / 90 ml Ελαιόλαδο
• 1 κ.σ. / 15 ml Τοματοπελτές
• Φρεσκοαλεσμένο αλάτι
• Πιπέρι τριμμένο, πολύχρωμο
Tumblr media
ΜΕΘΟΔΟΣ:
Α. Ετοιμάστε το σπανάκι:
1. Ρίξτε 4 κ.σ. Ελαιόλαδο σε μια βαθιά κατσαρόλα πάνω από μέτρια προς δυνατή φωτιά.
2. Μόλις ζεσταθεί, σοτάρετε πρώτα το ψιλοκομμένο κρεμμύδι, το πράσο και τα φρέσκα κρεμμυδάκια, ανακατεύοντας τακτικά, για 2' ή μέχρι να ροδίσουν και να καραμελώσουν.
3. Στη συνέχεια προσθέστε τον πελτέ ντομάτας και σοτάρετε για ένα λεπτό, ξύνοντας τον πάτο της κατσαρόλας για να απελευθερωθούν τα αρώματά του.
4. Χαμηλώστε τη φωτιά και προσθέστε τα φύλλα σπανακιού. Ανακατέψτε να σοταριστεί το σπανάκι παντού.
5. Καρυκέψτε με φρεσκοαλεσμένο αλάτι και πιπέρι, κατά βούληση.
6. Μετά από 5', θα δείτε ότι το σπανάκι έχει συρρικνωθεί στο 1/8 του αρχικού του μεγέθους!
7. Συνεχίστε να το μαγειρεύετε για 10' ακόμη, ανακατεύοντας τακτικά, ώστε να εξατμιστεί λίγο το νερό του.
8. Σβήστε τη φωτιά.
 
Β. Ετοιμάστε το ταψί για ψήσιμο στο φούρνο:
9. Σημείωση: Αν χρησιμοποιείτε αλατισμένο/παστό μπακαλιάρο, βάλτε τον σε νερό να μουλιάσει, μία μέρα πριν τον ψήσετε. Όταν είναι έτοιμος για ψήσιμο, μην αλατίσετε!!
10. Για καλύτερο αποτέλεσμα, χρησιμοποιήστε ένα στρογγυλό πήλινο (γάστρα) διαμέτρου 28 cm / 11 ίντσες. Διαφορετικά, χρησιμοποιήστε ένα στρογγυλό ταψί ίδιας διαμέτρου.
11. Αλείψτε με λίγο ελαιόλαδο τον πάτο και τα πλαϊνά του ταψιού.
12. Τοποθετήστε το ψημένο σπανάκι στο ταψί, απλώνοντάς το ώστε να καλύψει όλο τον πάτο (σαν "κρεβάτι" για το ψάρι).
13. Πάνω από το σπανάκι βάλτε τα φιλέτα μπακαλιάρου.
14. Ρίξτε από πάνω τους μια-δυο κ.σ. Ελαιόλαδο και αλατοπιπερώστε τα.
15. Έτοιμα για ψήσιμο.
 
Γ. Οδηγίες ψησίματος:
16. Βάλτε το πήλινο στη κάτω σχάρα ενός προθερμασμένου φούρνου, στον αέρα @ 190℃ / 375℉, και ψήστε το ψάρι για 40' max. (εξαρτάται από τον φούρνο).
17. Στα μισά του ψησίματος, ανοίξτε το φούρνο και αναποδογυρίστε τα φιλέτα μπακαλιάρου. Επιστρέψτε στο φούρνο.
18. Μετά από 40', βγάλτε το σκεύος από τον φούρνο.
19. Αφήστε το φαγητό να κρυώσει λίγο για 10', πριν σερβίρετε.
Tumblr media
Δ. Προτάσεις σερβιρίσματος:
Σερβίρετε το φαγητό όσο είναι ακόμα ζεστό.
Tumblr media
Τρυφερά μαγειρεμένος, ζουμερός μπακαλιάρος που ταιριάζει τέλεια με το σπανάκι ενώ ο πελτές ντομάτας του δίνει μια ελαφρά νότα γλυκύτητας.
Tumblr media
Για όσους το θέλουν λίγο ξινό, βάλτε μια δυο φέτες λεμονιού στο σερβίρισμα.
Tumblr media
Απολαύστε αυτό το πανεύκολο, υγιεινό φαγάκι.
Tumblr media
Ε. Πληροφορίες φύλαξης:
Τα υπολείμματα μπορούν να φυλαχτούν, όταν κρυώσουν, σε αεροστεγές δοχείο στο ψυγείο για 1 εβδομάδα.

8 rare local dishes from the Greek islands
Post inspired by this Greek article. I picked half of the dishes in order to create an island and local exclusive list, then translated and summarized the info. The pictures have links and in most of the respective websites you can find the recipes in Greek.
Makarunes with Sitaka, Kasos island
Makarunes is thick penne-like handmade pasta which is served with caramelised onions and the special Sitaka cheese of Kasos island. Sitaka is so rare, it is sometimes hard to find even in Athens but some restaurants do have this dish in their menu.
Tumblr media
Atherinópita (Smelt pie), Syros island
It is not truly a pie, but it is a dish produced from frying various small fish like sand smelts and bogues as well as onions all close together until they create a crust holding them together.
Tumblr media

Stuffed Hachles, Lesvos island
These are small baskets made of sun- and air-dried wheat kneaded with sour tarhana. They are usually stuffed with cheese, fresh tomato, herbs and spices but the filling is up to anyone's appetite really.
Tumblr media
Sweet sefuklotí pie, Naxos and Tinos islands
Sefukloti or fesklopita is a rare pie that is actually a dessert, which is surprising (in Greek cuisine) because it looks exactly like a spinach pie. Sefukloti is a traditional recipe of these islands, particularly of the Catholics celebrating Christmas Eve (The Cyclades islands have the largest presence of Catholic Christians in Greece.) The pie is made of swiss chard, rice, sugar, molasses, walnuts, raisins, cinnamon and clove. The crust is kneaded with orange juice. Some also add onions and leeks, which also do not prevent this pie from working perfectly as a dessert. Before the serving, sefukloti is dressed with sesame seeds and honey.
Tumblr media
Anthógalo with eggs, Réthymnon, Crete island
Anthogalo or Staka is produced exclusively in Crete island. It is made of the salted fats of sheep milk. In this recipe, eggs are fried with anthogalo which works here like butter. The eggs are buttered by the anthogalo, while parts of it curdle and form cheese pieces during the frying.
Tumblr media
Aliaða & Vakalaópita, Cephalonia island
Aliaða is the local version of the Greek garlic dip "skorðaliá". Aliada is made of garlic, potatoes and the juices of boiled cod or octopus. The latter turns the dip a burgundy colour. Besides the famous fried cod that is enjoyed everywhere in Greece, in Cephalonia cod is also used to make "Vakalaópita”, a cod fish pie, in which the crust and the filling are kneaded with wine and vinegar.
Tumblr media
Rhodian pungiá, Rhodes island
These are wild greens pies baked in special local traditional pans. The wild greens are not boiled before they are added to the pie but they are salt dried. The juice that is produced by this process is mixed with olive oil and is used as a dressing for the pie when it's served.
Tumblr media
Anthos, Andros island
Anthos means flower. In Andros island it is also the name of the local spoon sweet, made of lemon flowers as well as the flowers of other citrus plants. It is fragrant, chewy and is considered an aristocratic dessert with limited production. It is a pretty hard recipe, because the flowers must be picked at the right time of the season and the cooking must be very careful so that the sweet won't get bitter and dark.

04/07 + 08 +09/24
Sorry for being awol the last few days, I was super tired and exhausted. I think the starvation is getting to me. I do constantly think I eat too much by having lunch, but I just can´t stop. So I´ll try minimize the kcal I have.
I´ve recently discovered spinach with ranch as a meal and I fucking love it! Next I´ll maybe try arugula or something to mix it up.
So here is Sunday:
Tumblr media
We had Taco Bowls at my job (well as of now I am still volunteering, but they offered me a job for 29$/hour!!! as soon as I get my paperwork fixed) and I took a tiny bit, which I was okay with. I walked a lot that day and organized a COD tournament there for all the people we support and it went great! All in all the mood was super nice. T and me then proceeded to get some steaks to grill, but holy shit! I never realized Ribeye had so many kcal! Next time we grill I will pick something less heavy. Still eating the Couscoussalad, which turns out is actually a Quinoa salad, because I picked up the wrong box from our pantry - ooops. Oh well, we still liked it a lot and it just is so filling! I was still below 1000 kcal so I guess I can live with it.
Here is Monday:
Tumblr media
I was sooo surprised by my intake today! I thought it would be far more, but apparently pork loin is pretty low kcal! The Quinoasalad is still kicking and making us happy. Work was dope! I am making actual friends and it makes me so happy and fulfilled. Maybe I will make a career out of it after all, instead of going to law school. We´ll see. I am getting to a point of exhaustion with not eating lunches, so I will allot myself 150 kcal for that! Today I had leftovers of the taco bowls for lunch. Also I´m pretty sure one of my colleagues has an ED. She looks amazing tho! Gotta get back on the workout train soon.
And now to today:
Tumblr media
I am pretty okay with today. I shouldn´t have had the waffle, but I couldn´t resist. It smelled sooooo good! My own baking is my goddamn downfall. I felt like I was eating all freaking day. Need to be better. Also 2 tbsp of walnuts contain a whooping 103 kcal?! Sure an hell not going to be okay with that! Tomorrow I want to cut up some ham with spinach and use tortilla chips instead of walnuts. Maybe use some carrot? We´ll see, but spinach salad seems like a good safe food for lunch. Also one of my colleagues offered to go to zumba after work together tomorrow right across the street! I am STOKED. Finally some adults who are dope and not poisoned my hubbys jealous, toxic ex! Like I ever did anything to her lol. All I did was be kind and understand up to a point. I never said anything to her JFC. Whatever, she can eat dirt. I hope she´s miserable with all the shit she´s done to me, but I´ll get to that another day. Today was good. I snacked but oh well. I´m trying to convince T to work out with me now! If not I´ll just do a home workout by myself. I can highly recommend Growwithjo. 2 years ago I had lost a bunch of weight with her workouts already and now I´m back baby!
Baby C is currently the cutest fucking baby kitten I´ve ever met. So much better than T´s former cat lol. I mean I seemed to be her favorite person since she always just wanted to cuddle with me and lay on me but still.
Also some exciting news: The Quinoasalad is done for! we got like 10 or 11 portions out of it, so it has even less then 180 kcal lol.
The plan for the next few days:
-Homemade Tacos (with homemade nachos and tortillas)
-Lasagna soup
-Salmon Pasta Salad with Lemon-Herb Dressing
T really appreciates me cooking and making our foods at home to be healthy and keep everything clean and support him by keeping our home life in order! I love how T always tells me I´m such a better cook than his ex. She apparently sucked at the whole wife thing... Couldn´t keep the house clean for the life of her and just being a slob in general and it gives me such a pleasure whenever he remarks how much better I am at that * laugh*. Like who needs to be reminded of personal hygiene on a regular basis?

Premium Subs Subs With Quality Elements
True BBQ isn't steaks, burgers, hot canine at a cottage or small backyard get togethers. Yes, this ketchup is nice and all, however lately I took my love for things made with tomatoes to the next mustard bbq sauce stage, and also needed to woo my husband at the same time. I took on the discerning problem of barbecue sauce.
I was craving bbq rooster and only had slightly bit of sweet baby ray’s. I might use a smidge less vinegar but beloved the liquid smoke in it. Pee Dee River Swamp Sauce may be discovered at Pattan's Downtown Grille in Rockingham, NC. Come attempt our sauce with our award winning barbecue, brisket, or smoked chicken!

A garlic butter toasted bun topped with a crunchy and juicy rooster mustard based bbq sauce breast, Mach 3 scorching sauce, jalapeños, Swiss cheese, and onion rings. Grilled rooster breast topped with bacon, lettuce, tomatoes, mayonnaise and cheddar cheese.
Centre sizzling sealing discs on clear jar rim. Screw band down until resistance is met, then enhance to fingertip tight. If your homemade barbecue sauce and ketchup are left unopened, it'll last a couple of months. A selfmade ketchup recipe, without the sugar and agave that’s usually added to ketchup you may find on a grocery retailer shelf. Heinz additionally has a reduced sugar possibility, that throws the sugar proper out the door and replaces it with artificial sweetener in the type of sucralose. Or my private favorite, the no-salt ketchup that as a substitute contains one thing they call “ALSOSALT®”.
Over time different areas perfected their own variations and allegiances quickly developed, most notably St. Louis, Memphis and Kansas City. Most of the flavors we take pleasure in today have their roots in the Southern states, particularly the Carolinas.

What Do Italians Eat On Christmas Eve and Christmas Day?
Christmas is celebrated all over the world, and each culture has traditions. Christmas is special in Italy; specific foods are eaten only during the holiday season. This blog post will look at what Italians eat on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. We will explore traditional Italian Christmas cuisine, including seafood dishes!
Italians typically celebrate Christmas Eve with dinner and Christmas Day with lunch, though this year is far from typical. Every region has its traditional fare for the holidays, making the gastronomical celebrations a delightfully varied experience usually enjoyed in the company of family members.
 Feast of the Seven Fishes
In Italy, the Christmas Eve dinner is typically meat-free. It consists of seven different types of seafood – known as the ‘Feast of the Seven Fishes‘ in Italian-American culture. Seven is a number with tremendous significance in numerous cultures; it symbolizes completeness, flawlessness and solidarity.
This feast comprises seven exquisite seafood dishes, such as eel, baccala (cured cod), calamari, and shrimp.
The key is moderation for those wanting to commit to seven seafood dishes in one meal. Instead of serving an overly large main dish with seven whole fish, spread out the flavor profiles throughout a variety of small appetizers, soups, pasta, and sides that focus on seafood as their primary ingredient. This way, your dinner guests can experience all seven courses without feeling overly full!
This meal includes a variety of delicious salads, such as insalata di rinforzo (a salad with escarole, olives and anchovies), caponata with herbs, or radicchio tossed with olive oil. Salami-style appetizers are also popular choices.
Christmas Eve dinner in Italy.
Italian Christmas Eve Meals
In Italy, families come together for Christmas eve dinner. It’s a family affair! Italians need to have delicious, traditional meals that bring everyone together.
According to Catholic customs, meat is prohibited from being consumed on the nights before holy days. Consequently, Italians typically indulge in a fish feast on Christmas Eve as an alternative. The main course is usually a variety of seafood dishes, including shrimp, squid or octopus in tomato sauce, stuffed calamari, clams cooked with white wine and garlic, or baked fish.
Pasta is also a popular choice. Some traditional recipes include spaghetti with clams, ravioli filled with ricotta and spinach, or pumpkin-filled mezzelune. Potatoes or other pastries may also be served as side dishes.
The desserts are usually regional delicacies and vary from region to region. Some popular choices include panettone, pandoro (a round sweet bread sprinkled with powdered sugar), and torrone (a traditional Italian nougat candy).
Italian Christmas Day Meals
Christmas Day lunch is an important event where friends and family reunite, sit around the table, engage in conversation, and share jokes – all while savouring delectable dishes! Eating (a lot) of delightful cuisine is unquestionably the main agenda of this important celebration.
All across Italy, the traditional Christmas Day feast has remained consistent for generations, and it consists of the following:
The antipasti: An array of carefully selected cured meats, cheeses and delightful fried finger foods
The pasta: This course could be gnocchi, ravioli or spaghetti – depending on the region.
The main course: This usually features roasted or grilled meat, such as pork, lamb, beef or rabbit.
The contorni (side dishes): This consists of an array of seasonal vegetables, such as artichokes and bell peppers.
The dolci (desserts): Sweet treats highlight the meal! Some traditional desserts include panettone, pandoro or tiramisu.
An antipasti dish for Christmas
Antipasti
From prosciutto to Parmigiano-Reggiano, a classic antipasti selection features cured meats and cheeses. Garlic bread or bruschetta is also part of this course, helping to prepare the palate for the main dishes.
In the north of Italy, you may find polenta croutons topped with Gorgonzola cheese or Piedmontese bagna cauda (a garlic and anchovy dip). Meanwhile, focaccia, arancini (rice balls filled with cheese and other ingredients) and caponata are popular in the south.
Pasta Course
Pasta is an essential component of the Christmas feast. Common recipes include lasagne, ravioli, linguine or spaghetti accompanied by delicious sauces. Pesto alla Genovese (Ligurian pesto), ragù Napoletano (Neapolitan meat sauce) and pesto Trapanese are some of the most popular choices.
Main Course
The main course usually consists of roasted or grilled meat, such as pork, lamb, beef or rabbit. Some regions have their specialities, such as cotechino (boiled sausage) in Lombardy and zampone (stuffed pig’s trotter) in Emilia-Romagna.
Contorni (Side Dishes)
The contorni usually consists of seasonal vegetables, such as artichokes and bell peppers. Carrots, mushrooms or potatoes may also be served as side dishes.
Dolci (Desserts)
Tiramisu, panettone, pandoro and cannoli are some of the most typical Italian desserts. You may also find sweet ravioli filled with ricotta cheese or fruit pies decorated with marzipan in certain regions.
No matter what region of Italy you’re in, Christmas is a special occasion where friends, family and food come together to create an unforgettable celebration.
We hope you’ve enjoyed learning about delicious dishes Italians enjoy on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day! Buon Natale a tutti! (Merry Christmas to all!)
Happy Holidays from Italy!

RECIPE: Apple Tarte Tatin (from Home Style Cookery by Matty Matheson)
If your apples aren’t glowing orbs of caramel-glazed perfection, then I’m sorry, but start over. Tarte Tatin should be almost an opaque mandarin orange in color, and if it’s gray, mealy soft, and flat then your apples were shit and your caramel was not hot. You have to make tarte Tatin hot and the apples have to be perfect. They don’t have to be perfectly sliced and fitted into the pan—even mine is not perfect in formation. The consistency is what’s key and what really matters. This is perfect with a slice of cold sharp Cheddar or a really good vanilla bean ice cream . . . or both, really.
Serves: 6 to 8
Prep time: 2 hours and 10 minutes
For the pâte brisée:
1⅓ cups (190 g) all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
¼ teaspoon salt
¾ cup (180 g) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
⅓ cup (75 ml) sour cream
1 egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon water to make egg wash
For the caramel:
½ cup (110 g) granulated sugar
For the apples:
4 pounds (about 9 small) Granny Smith apples or any kind of baking apple
3 tablespoons lemon juice
½ cup (120 ml) Devonshire clotted cream, for serving
Make the pâte brisée: In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt. Blend the cold butter into the flour mixture with a hand mixer to get a grainy texture with the butter forming into pea-size bits. Add the sour cream and mix, lifting and turning the mixture with a spatula to prevent some spots from becoming wetter than others. Add water one spoonful at a time until the mixture holds when pressed between your fingers. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
On a clean floured work surface, using a rolling pin, roll out the dough to 1/8 inch (6 mm) thick. Place on a baking sheet and store in the fridge until you’re ready to bake.
Make the caramel: Put 2 tablespoons water into a heavy-bottomed pot. Cover with the sugar, place over medium-low heat, and heat until the sugar dissolves. Don’t stir, as this can cause the sugar to crystallize. Turn up heat to medium-high and heat until the sugar starts to turn golden brown and turns to caramel, 8 to 10 minutes. Pour the caramel into a 10-inch (25 cm) cast-iron skillet to coat the bottom and allow to cool. The caramel will set and harden.
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Make the apples: Peel, seed, and cut the core out of the apples with a melon baller, then cut the apples into quarters, leaving 1 half-apple slice for the center apple. Place the apples in a bowl of water with the lemon juice as you cut them to prevent browning.
Remove the apples from the lemon water and transfer onto the hardened caramel in the skillet. Line the inside rim of the skillet with apple quarters, packing them in tightly, then make a second compact ring moving toward the center. Place the half piece of apple peeled skin side down in the center of the skillet.
Take the pâte brisée out of the fridge. Place the dough on top of the apples and use a small sharp knife to cut off excess dough all the way around the outside of the skillet so the dough is flush with the rim.
Brush the top of the dough with an even layer of egg wash edge to edge. Place the tarte Tatin in the oven and bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and some caramel is bubbling up around the edges. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes.
Place a serving plate on top of the tarte Tatin and gently hold it against the crust. Make a quick flipping motion, place on the table, and remove the skillet to reveal the glistening apple orbs.
Serve warm, with a dollop of Devonshire clotted cream.

salmon “en papillote” with shallots, tomatoes and basil
My parents garden currently features overflowing trellises of grape and celebrity tomatoes, as well as an overgrown basil plant, so I wanted to make use of these for dinner. In season and homegrown, the tomatoes have a particular flavor that combines fruity sweetness with acidity and some deep, savory umami.
The present recipe is for a large salmon fillet but could work with a firm-fleshed white fish like cod, too; a piece that’s about 12 inches long by 5 inches wide should be enough for 4...the piece was actually much longer than than, so I cut off a piece and made a butter, dill, thyme (both also from the garden) and garlic mixture that I placed on top for two siblings who are anti-tomato
“En papillote” refers to a French technique wherein fish is cooked in a parchment (or aluminum) parcel; it’s a combination of roasting and steaming that produces flavorful and well-cooked results. I used a New York Times recipe as my guide for temperature and cook time.
Because tomatoes were all around, the fish was served with a corn succotash with basil, shallots and tomato, alongside sautéed spinach and a tomato and basil salad with one of the riper celebrity tomatoes...and a riesling, followed by a peach and cardamom pie currently in the oven that I made with my sister
It’s a summery overkill, but the tomato basil combination never gets old
...
1 large piece of filleted salmon
A few leaves of basil, ripped
A few sprigs of thyme or oregano
1 shallot, thinly sliced
A handful or more of grape tomatoes, halved
Kosher salt
Coarse ground black pepper
Dry vermouth or white wine
Olive oil
Parchment paper
...
Preheat the oven to 400/375 convection.
Pat dry the salmon and lay it on a large piece of parchment paper so that the paper can be folded over the fillet with about an inch of margin.
Season with kosher salt and pepper.
Throw on sliced shallots, tomatoes, and basil or other herbs. Garlic may also be a good substitute for shallots here.
Drizzle a little olive oil. This is more so for flavor, since the fish, in the case of salmon, has a lot of natural fat and moisture.
Fold over paper and begin rolling the edges towards the fish, crimping as you go along. Start from the sides and then roll the longest edge. If you find that the parcel doesn’t seal because the edges of the paper don’t meet, you can fix this my folding and pressing some aluminum across the gap.
Place in the middle rack and the oven and bake for 10-15 minutes. 12 was great for the size of fish I had, and less than 10 may even be necessary for a smaller piece. The fish should be flaky and firm.
