Cooking with Eowyn
Mar. 21st, 2013 07:40 pmGinger Glazed Mahi-Mahi Swordfish - My supermarket didn't have any fresh mahi-mahi, and the guy at the seafood counter said swordfish was the closest thing he had. I don't really know how they compare, but the swordfish was very good? I definitely wanted more of the glaze, though, especially since I was eating it over rice and the entire point of rice is to get the sauce into my mouth, lol.
Chicken with Tarragon and Vermouth - Also yummy, but also needed more sauce. The chicken itself was actually a bit bland. I'd probably let it simmer in the pan a bit longer, to give it more of the tarragon and wine flavor. (I used chardonnay instead of vermouth, because the bottle was already open.) I'll have to tell my mother about this one. Wine and butter are basically her two favorite things.
Roasted Potatoes with Blue Cheese and Walnuts - I love the combination of blue cheese and walnuts. Forget the potatoes, I could just eat the topping with a spoon. Er... but the potatoes are good, too! My potatoes stuck to the baking dish a bit, though, so I should probably be more thorough with the cooking spray, haha.
