I made the Pipperade Stir-fry tonight. What a beautiful variety of peppers! They looked beautiful. When cut and later, when cooked. This was an easy dish, cooking down the red wine vinegar with the peppers gave the dish such a zesty flavor. I loved it.

Smoked Salmon Waffles hit the spot

On a drizzly and chilly Sunday afternoon recently, I decided that the Smoked Salmon waffles would be the perfect supper that night. I went to our neighborhood food coop for the smoked salmon and the Spring onions. I then hauled out my old Belgian waffle iron and plugged it in. Then I made the waffle batter, which was very straight forward, and let it sit for about an hour. Since this was supper, I made a carrot salad and a green salad also. The waffles cooked well, not sticking to the waffle iron, I put them in a warm oven and cooked the entire batter, keeping them warm in the oven while others were cooking.  I think we were all pretty happy with the results; the taste was filling and delicious. The combination of the smoked salmon and the spring onions was perfect...and we had some chives in the garden which I clipped and sprinkled on top. I would make this again!
