Where I live got eight inches of rain over the past three days and it is utterly pouring now too!

We didn't end up getting much--under 2".

Is it monsoon season already?

A welcome visit this afternoon from a red pilated woodpecker. Second time in a week. Damn big bird. Don't believe I've seen one before. Beautiful. Hammering away on an old maple tree.

Help!

It is snowing and I am trapped in Wisconsin...

The best thing I've ever put on a bagel, and it's taken years to find it.

Smoked Tuna Salad (i.e. Essa Bagel) – a work in process.

3 oz smoked salmon (West coast, not lox)
6 oz chunk tuna
3-4 tablespoons mayonnaise
3 tbl lemon juice
7-8 baby carrots
Salt to taste (pinches)

Place carrots in food processer and chop finely. Add tuna and salmon and incorporate with food processor. Add lemon juice, salt, and mayonnaise; run processor until desired consistency. May try this with some celery.

That sounds delicious! Cutting the smoked salmon with canned tuna evens out that strong smoked flavor, too...genius!

4806. judithathome - 11/8/2012 8:25:47 PM

OOOhhh...maybe add a teaspoon or so of dill pickle relish!

Smoked salmon and dill? Primo!

It is snowing and I am trapped in Wisconsin...

Pray for global warming:)

The hell's 'West Coast smoked salmon'? Nova I know, Scottish I know, lox I know.

4809. Wombat - 11/9/2012 3:18:58 AM

Hot smoked, not cold smoked. Like Kippered Salmon

4810. iiibbb - 11/9/2012 2:24:52 PM

I may have over-reported lemon juice requirement, cut that by half... I eyeball everything but the fish (packaging)

4811. resonance - 11/10/2012 8:53:07 AM

Ah. I'll stick with the Nova.

I love cold smoked salmon. I absolutely love salmon sashimi. I could probably eat a pound of it! But hot smoked, let alone cooked salmon -- sorry, just can't do it.

Goes back to when I was a kid and would occasionally be fed this nasty ass salmon casserole.

There are a number of things I hated as a kid that I can now eat -- fresh tomatoes, any sort of onions, most kinds of fish, oysters, liver, horseradish, pate. There's been a couple of times I've tried cooked salmon as an adult, hoping it was something else I'd now like (because salmon's good for you and it's easy to cook and it's versatile). No dice.

4813. iiibbb - 11/10/2012 2:31:48 PM

salmon is only a minor component of this salad... this is the best thing I ever put... it is still missing something, but I hapve a theory to test.

4814. iiibbb - 11/10/2012 2:32:40 PM

to match that deli's flavor... this is really close though.

4815. iiibbb - 11/10/2012 2:37:25 PM

I'm wondering if a hint of pimento would give the accent I want. I'm not sure how much to try yet.
