\"Snapper<\/a><\/p>\n

A glaze seems like a lot of trouble when you think about it, but when you make it, it’s really not a big deal. You boil some stuff in a pan for a little while, that’s about it. Why all the fuss? This one had tamarind, ginger, red pepper, soy sauce, and honey. It’s sweet and spicy at the same time.<\/p>\n

The recipe calls for you to stuff a whole fish with mint, then glaze the fish and bake it. For solo Fish Wednesday, that’s a bit too much food. Instead, I wrapped the fish in mint leaves, poured on the glaze, then bundled the whole thing in foil before putting it in the oven. I tossed the asparagus in a little olive oil and sea salt and cooked it in the same pan with the foil wrapped fish. The sweet sauce was a nice counterpoint when drizzeled over the salty asparagus.<\/p>\n

I’m a little out of practice so I left the fish in just a bit too long. I’d forgotten that you really need to stay on top it to avoid overcooking. As always, no matter, the next Fish Wednesday is only a week away.<\/p>\n

It’s a delight to be back in my Seattle kitchen. This week I also made a slightly sweet chili – the secret is apple juice – and sweet potato curry. It’s all about the sweet and spicy combo around here lately… va va voom! Come for dinner! Bring beer!<\/p>\n

Don’t expect me to settle for the cheaper iHome units, I tried them<\/a> and the tuners were crap. Someone around here needs a good job if they think they’re gonna get fancy home eee-lectronics for the nightstand.<\/p>\n
