Clarissa-- I have one of those pastry blow torch things that doesn't get much use around here. I should send it your way...

I have one, too. I've never used it, so this will be its first time out of the box.

Cooked. You CAN'T freeze raw potatoes.

Can I have the recipe?

Also, can I ask how many people you cook for, and if they are big or little people?

Change in plans, not that anybody cares, but I'm posting it.

Tofu and vegetables in a Thai sauce (peanuts, cilantro, lime, chili and lots of other stuff)
Coconut rice
Roasted kabocha squash
Chocolate creme brulee

That sounds so good!
I love Thai food - I made a delicious dairy curry this week. I even added some of the leftover coconut milk to the pea soup - I liked the flavor it gave it. Unfortunately, I like coconut milk a bit too much. I wish it wasn't so fattening!

I use the Lite Coconut Milk (unless it's for guests, in which case I go full fat) but it still tastes really rich, so I imagine it's still very fattening. Add the fat of the ground peanuts and the creme brulee, and I imagine my Weight Watchers weigh-in on Sunday might be skipped. My scale is getting dusty, I'm too afraid to go near it.

Being that we only get ONE coconut milk with a hehsher, I am amazed that there could be a LIte version !!!

On Kosher Quest (I don't know if you accept it) Rabbi Eidlitz says that coconut milk doesn't require certification, unless it's from China. We accept it, although we do usually find kosher coconut milk, not sure if it's regular or lite. I know we've bought Trader Joe's in the past, but this wasn't from there. My husband bought it and I've already tossed the can.

I use the light version as well - it's still like 5 grams of fat and I think 4 grams unsaturated fat. I get it from Trader Joe's. The ingredients consist of coconut milk and water - and according to the KosherQuest list, coconut milk doesn't need a hechsher, but it can't be from China. It tastes just as good as the full fat version.

Random -- I love Trader Joes. Great food, gread prices, kosher goat cheese, free coffee and free balloons.

I love them, too. Wish I had one in my neighborhood. They scouted but didn't rent anything. Amazing food, great service, pleasant atmosphere. I read an article in the Times about the company, they're really interesting and very progressive.

Heres the Portobella Salad

1 large Onion
Sliced Portabella Mushroom (2-4 pack)
2 Heads Romaine Hearts
1 Container Cherry Tomato
1 tbs. Onion Soup Mix
1 Avacado diced

Dressing

2/3 Cup Olive Oil
¼ Cup Vinegar
¼ Cup Sugar
¼ Cup Ketchup
1 Clove Garlic
½ Tsp Salt
¼ Tsp Dry Mustard
¼ Tsp Paprika

Brush Mushrooms and Onion with some oil and grill for about 15 min on each side.
You can also bake in oven.

Mix everything together.

I love this salad, if I'm lazy to grill the mushrooms I use cut hearts of palm instead, and I add toasted slivered almonds, it's yum like this.

There is one in Union Square, but I've never been there. I'm on the UWS and they scouted here, but decided against. Don't they know how much I love them?
