Default Dinner last night

A neighbor friend of ours brought over some zucchini and yellow squash the
other day. He does some auto work for a produce guy and the produce guy
drops off cases of free veggies to him. He can't eat it all so we ended up
with 2 zucchini, about 5 yellow squash and 4 sweet onions.

So, I finely chopped up some garlic, added a couple of pats of butter to the
pan, diced up one zucchini and 2 yellow squash, sauteed them in the garlic
and butter and tossed some shredded romano on the top.

I've made this before, several times, but somehow this just seemed better
than usual. My husband ate 3 servings of the veggies and I had one small
bowl. (He also had a roasted garlic beef heart and fresh green beens
sauteed in garlic, ginger, shoyu and sesame oil.)

Here's a pic of his first plate: http://i8.tinypic.com/5ylecd4.jpg (Let's
hope this works out. Why does tiny pic keep messing with the file
structure?)

Kili, is that the beef heart in there??

I've never actually seen anyone, or heard of anyone, who actually uses
beef hearts.

I buy them all the time for my pooch.


But then again.......... I used to buy her lamb shanks till some Pommy
git started sprouting on a TV cooking show that they were the ducks guts
for slow cooked food and the price per kg went up about 500%!!

Looks delicious, the green beans sounded pretty good, too (fresh green
beens sauteed in garlic, ginger, shoyu and sesame oil).

For convenience, I purchased a jar of minced ginger. It helps when you
want ginger right now, but you do not have any.

It's a real beef heart. TFM® found an entire one and he was excited;
normally you find them already sliced. So he roasted it and I made the side
dishes. I wouldn't touch the heart. (Ick.)

I didn't know that there was jarred ginger, jarred garlic, yes. I'll have
to look for that; it would make life much easier! Thanks, Becca.

kili,

You can also put fresh peeled ginger in a jar and cover with dry
sherry. It'll keep a long time that way. I always have some in the
door of the fridge.

We get them in the pet food section of the supermarket here, either
whole or cut up for $4.99kg.

I take it the dark parts in there were blood residue??

I'm with you......... Ick!!

Nah, he used dark mushroom flavored shoyu on the hearts. He went to my
(ahem) FAVORITE dreaded meat store to find it the heart. He loves him. I
can't believe I kiss that mouth.

Free is always good, isn't it? Our neighbor dropped off some corn tonight.
I'm thinking corn on the cob for part of the menu tomorrow. :~)

In the South, it isn't good until grease runs down your chin and you can
wipe it off with your arm. I think napkins are non-existant.

I've never seen beef heart, but it looks a lot "meatier" than I had
imagined. I had visualized something like a tomato with the seeds
removed - Only made of meat. Thin walls, lots of empty inside...
Now, if it isn't as tough and chewy as I suspect it is, I might actually
try it some day.



Apparently, over here, it's a hit with some ethnic minorities who stuff
them and bake them. The beef hearts are quite meaty........ which is why my
pooch loves them :-)

With that method, once you've finished with the ginger, you drink the
sherry :-)

The ginger residue is good for you, and the sherry has it's own health
benefits :-)
