Potatoes and onions
 
Someone who gets those produce boxes delivered gave my brother two full
boxes. They were going away and couldn't use it all up. Now I have a ton of
potatoes and onions. Angela has the same. She took some other things. Not
sure what they'll do with all the broccoli. Now... What to do with them?
They are russet potatoes and yellow onions. I do have a pot roast in the
freezer. I could get some more carrots and make that since our weather is
turning cooler. I love free food!

If I had them I would know what to do with them. We're old
fashioned, Mid-West eaters. Baked potatoes are always good -- lots
of potassium other vitamins and fiber in there. Lots of side dish
recipes. You can boil, bake and mash them Check the Web. Onions?
I'd chop most of them up, lay them on trays, freeze them and then bag
them. Otherwise there are a bunch of onion dishes that use a lot of
them.
Check the Web.

I'm from Wichita. Can't get much more Midwest than that, but we didn't eat a
lot of potatoes.

The COVID people in Italy were sicker due to their high gluten pasta diet. Potato eating Germans got fewer critical complications.

You've been listening to Doc. Wallach. He's a quack. Germans are known for
drinking gluten containing beer, and eating gluten containing foods like
Spaetzel, breaded meats. bread, cakes, etc.

LOL, Germans do indeed love their breads. They also do a lot of rice
comparativly (sp?) to much of Europe. That one suprised me when I
found out. I think it was Italy for number 1 and they were 2 or a
close 3rd.

It surprised me when I read your post. As I kid I spent more time in my
German friend's house than in my own and don't remember every seeing
rice served. I have been to Germany several times and never saw it
served anywhere. So I cheated and looked it up. It turns out that
Germany is one of the lowest in per capita rice consumption.

Humm, I malformed my search? Hey, I can be wrong! I don't think it
was served 'alone' there often but more used in things.

My dad liked the Germans - he said they were good, fun, people. He said the Swedes were kind of "sour" people - and he was married to a Swede. Beats the heck out of me what the German people eat. Rice you say? :)

My dad liked the Germans - he said they were good, fun, people. He said the
Swedes were kind of "sour" people - and he was married to a Swede. Beats the
heck out of me what the German people eat. Rice you say? :)

I'll pass on that one. My family is getting a little nutty diet-wise. It seems that all they'll eat is fish. Ha ha. I cooked up some mahimahi last night. It was salted and peppered, then slathered with wasabi-mayo and sprinkled with seaweed and sesame seed. Then cooked in the air-fryer. My son is orchestrating this diet and he's kinda like a keto-hitler. I think I'll cook me up a nice burger.

<g> Well it looks lovely to me:)) Not something I have ever seen:) The
only fish we eat is cod, haddock and salmon!!!

Incidentally, I always use my air fryers to cook fish, unless I am
battering them. Do you think he would like battered fish??

I have a lovely beer batter recipe which we both love. Oh and it
doesn't taste of the beer .. sorry:)) It does however make a lovely risen
and crisp batter:))

Your fishes are fine fishes. On this rock we grew up eating mostly mahimahi.. These days, mahimahi is getting expensive and weird looking. Soon there will be none left.

I'm cooking it this way because my family is on a fat restricted diet. Mostly, they're eating low calorie, high protein, drinks and bars. They have to eat a low fat dish with a salad once a day. If I had my way, I'd fry the fish. Cod in a beer batter would be wonderful but that's not allowed - at least for now.

Today I was collecting some hibiscus flowers. My daughter has a new tortoise and they eat these flowers. Can you imagine that?

Your fishes are fine fishes. On this rock we grew up eating mostly mahimahi.
These days, mahimahi is getting expensive and weird looking. Soon there will
be none left.

Not really:) I have never been lucky enough to have a
tortoise:) If I had, I would feed them whatever they preferred:)))
