I’ve been sorting out the fridge. This has involved putting things in containers and freezing them. It’s not easy to use things up before they go off, if you don’t like to keep eating the same thing for days.
2 box of chicken casserole, 2 boxes of bolognese sauce, 5 little tubs of nduja, 4 of red Thai curry paste, 4 of black bean sauce. I box of tofu. I buy tofu every so often and always regret it. If tofu tasted of anything, which it doesn’t, it would be the taste of regret. Of course, what one does is marinate it and so on, but I really must remember that it is simply not worth the bother.
I was going to make broccoli and Stilton soup but can’t quite be arsed, so that’s for tomorrow. Now I just have to think what to have for dinner, because nothing I’ve seen yet has tempted me. Luckily, I still have quite a lot of Cava, so have poured a glass.
I have 2 ripe avocados. The market stall guy stupidly put oranges on top of them and bruised them, so they need to be eaten. Can one freeze avocados? I’ll check. I don’t feel like eating avocado either.
Avocava ?
Avocava sounds a great idea!
Costco sell frozen avocado. I’ve never been tempted, but best for dips and smoothies methinks. Wouldn’t like to risk it for salad or anything like that.
I’m with you on the tofu. “Taste of regret” sums it up very nicely. I found a good recipe about 2 years ago (the only one ever), but have now misplaced it and have no idea what it was. So hardly memorable.
I’ve scooped it into balls, tossed them in lemon juice and frozen them. As you say, best not in a salad or eaten straight, okay for guacamole or something.
I bought the tofu for veggie burgers for Pugsley, but I re-read my friend Cottage Smallholder’s recipe and really couldn’t face the 15-20 ingredients, making enough for at least eight people, when I only had one vegetarian (who succumbed to bacon last week, apparently, so there’s hope for me yet).
