The Food4Less near my mom's place had these:
Pacific Pearl fancy smoked oysters, Brunswick sardines in olive oil & spring water (no salt added), La Sirena sardines in tomato sauce and tomato sauce with chili, Star fillets of anchovies in olive oil, Geisha fancy smoked baby clams in cottonseed oil, and Chicken of the Sea sardines in oil (lightly smoked).

The La Sirenas will need an actual can opener, which my mom doesn't have at her assisted living facility. :(

I was watching a video on YouTube about shakshuka and reading this thread talking about fisherman's eggs.

What if....

We combine the two?

Those sardines look weird. Where are the bones?

Not a sardine. Mom says it's called galungong. Smells like mackerel.

If you love the 'dines, do your part to reduce global warming.

Dinner was unsatisfactory, so later I had some Brunswicks packed in water on top of dollar store saltines. Eaten over a sink. The Brunswicks were firm & large (4 total fillets in the can). Kinda fishy but I love that.

So my trip to Seafood City last week yielded a bounty worth posting.


So far everything is great, but I admit I've been eating my 'dines as Fisherman's Eggs.


Of course, there have been some… setbacks.
(Not from the above haul, but trying to get rid of old stock).

The original fisherman's eggs called for pre-cooking the sardines & aromatics before adding the eggs, so I just out them in the oven while it preheats then add the eggs when the oven hit 500.

La Sirena sardines are loving awful. Tomato sauce is bland as gently caress & really detracts from the sardines. I'd use them in fisherman's eggs if I was desperate enough to get my 'dine on. Who knew sardines from Food 4 Less would have crappy sardines?

Didn't realize I had only one egg for my morning's fisherman's eggs. Base was pico de gallo, yellow bell peppers, crimini mushrooms, and King Oscars in olive oil (got them from Target on the way back from my morning gym).

Hah, I was just down in central CA to get my mom's stuff packed & shipped to MD. No time to stop by there but I did eat some bangus (fried Filipino milkfish) at Best Lumpia in Stockton.

Also pictured, crispy pata (roast pork shoulder refried to make the skin extra crunchy).

Hello, Dads & Those That Eat Like Dads. I've been away from the 'dine game but came back with a vengance with today's breakfast.

The players:

Water, kasha (buckwheat groats), King Oscar Mediterranean-style sardines.


Get water boiling.


Drain oil into pot. Turn to high.


Add kasha, salt, and onion powder(1).


Add hot water to pan. Be careful for steam & splashing hot fat!


Let cook on low for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.


IT'S SO FLUFFY!


Put kasha in bowl. Top with 'dines.

Not bad overall. Could have used a little more fat(2) but a good meal overall. To make it more authentic next time I'll use Russian sprats instead of King Oscar.

(1]Original recipe calls for using diced onions. Will do so again in future.
(2)If I was really smart I would have rendered lardons of bacon, sauteed onions in it and used that as well.

Good Neighbor is the Russian Grocery store near my house. They have a lot of canned/jarred fishes.


Trying 5 out. Mostly Riga brand sprats. Having the middle one for lunch today over kasha.

EDIT:

Riga sprats good. Very Russian. давай!

It should also go without saying that Boston baked beans are best when you make them from scratch.

But if you're a busy dad canned is totally legit.

Wild Planet 'dines are indeed good. I used them in my breakfast.

Cooking them over low heat while the kasha heats up.


Add eggs, watch as kasha comes to boil (15 minutes).


Top egg/sardine mix over finished kasha, eat with coffee.

So I was at this restaurant called Cheese Bar & was all set to order a Cubano when I noticed his on the specials board:

Spanish sardines, piparra peppers, preserved lemon, Napa cabbage & grain mustard on a baguette. Glad I opted for this instead.

Yeah, I very slowly heat up my KO's in a pan while cooking my breakfast kasha. There is a little caramelization, which adds another flavor layer.

The only downside is that my house then reeks of fish, even when running the fan & opening the windows.

Honestly it looks like just unappealing plating/photography. If he cut them into filets (or steaks) and grilled them it may look a bit better.

I stopped by my local Asian grocery store & bought almost 4lbs of salmon trimmings (mainly fins, but some meat on the bones) for dirt cheap. Along with some leeks, carrot, celery, garlic, ginger, and tumeric root, I made a homemade stock. After I fished out the bones I separated the meat & put it back in, then pureéd everything with my stick blender. Came out nice & light, and now I have soup for the week.

I've had various boneless, skinless mackerels lately from my local Asian grocery store & I have to admit that I think I like the plain ones best, mainly because then I can add whatever seasoning I want to it.

Teriyaki eel in a tin though can go away.

Holy poo poo, I'm eating grits with KO sardines and avocado for dinner and it's DELICIOUS. Just made it to use random things in my pantry and I'm definitely going to do it again.

I have a lot of quick-cook cornmeal that I was going to make polenta. Maybe I should try this instead.

Not 'dines but dadly dinner

Pickled Planet spicy beans and chicken liver pate spread over toasted multigrain English muffins. Large plate because it's the last clean plate while dishwasher runs. The beans are spicier than I was expecting but that means I'll have a flavorful brine for whatever meat I pick up his weekend.
