My Life With Garlic

October 14, 2005

fish heads, fish heads

Another cooking session with Momma will take place this weekend. Smelts & olio are on the menu. The smelt recipe is finished, but one of my dear recipe testers, Alex, struggled with the cleaning of them. I realized that the smelts have always been fileted by Momma & ready to go for me when I come home. I get to clean out the fish guts all by myself this time, so that I can give proper instructions in the cookbook. JOY!

Olio is also on the “to do” list. I've made this dish 3 times, already. The first try was a salty bearly edible mess. The second was very bland & the third was better, but not quite right. Momma said this recipe is as easy as pie. It's funny, but the recipes that seem very easy on paper, are the ones that have been giving me the most trouble. Hmmm. Past experience tells me that a key ingredient or step may have been left out. We shall see.
