California Roll Cobb Salad with Sesame Dressing

January 22, 2022 No Comments

Okay, here’s a mash-up no one asked for. California roll meets cobb salad. I will admit, the two classics don’t exactly spring to mind simultaneously. It takes a truly disorganized food-obsessed brain to arrange this meeting. But I must say, I was pretty pleased with this bit of fusion when all was said and done. The two fed into each other surprisingly well. I hate when fusion feels forced, so I’m happy to report this California Roll Cobb Salad came together without a fight. Frankly, the two seem designed for each other. So let’s set about mashing them together, shall we?

We got a lot of snow this week. 40cm to be exact. And I love it. Of course, I feel for all the people inconvenienced by this dramatic weather event. But I do love a good blizzard and I love the opportunity to snowshoe, cross country ski, and generally act like an excitable puppy in a snowbank. But sadly, we’re in for rain followed by a swift drop in temperature. I’m sure I’m not alone when I say I despise icy conditions almost as much as I hate cold rain. But there is a silver lining to this yoyoing weather activity. There will be every excuse to huddle over a simmering pot of this Thai Fish Cake Noodle Soup. This baby was made for wet socks and dampened spirits, so let’s dive right in.

If there’s one thing you can learn from today’s Kale Caesar Flatbreads it’s this: Salad is better when served on bread. I know, it’s not really a shocking discovery. Bread has a tendency to make everything better. But this recipe is not all about the bread, although it is spectacular. What you are looking at here is a fluffy flatbread topped with baby kale coated in a whipped feta caesar dressing topped with blood orange, thin slices of red onion, and marinated white anchovies. This is the stuff of dreams…well, my dreams at least. So let’s get into it.

I’m back from my Christmas breather to share with you a couple of recipes for New Year’s Eve. Now, these are not for party planners or people expecting a crowd of 50. No, what I have in store for you is a chill but luxurious New Year’s menu for two. You could accommodate up to four if necessary but I did envision this menu as a sort of at-home date night. Consequently, all the dishes are fairly romantic and require very little fuss to serve the day of. No one wants to be stranded at the dinner table as their date fiddles with something in the kitchen. Undivided attention is what we’re after and that all starts with this Smoked Salmon Tartare.
