Some normal food

Zippylip

Spent a very nice 4th at a good friend’s house, was given the nod to bring the veggies, had no intention of making a post out of this but when I looked at the finished plate I had to get the camera out. In the center of the plate is a pile of Littlelip’s cheddar mozzarella & garlic abts, we did them on the large, then kept the egg pretty hot (damper door open ½ way & a full load of lump), & just rotated one veggie after another in & out of an olive oil bath, salted/peppered, then & onto raised grid till they looked nice, then onto a cooling rack to calm down before going to the plate (avoids that nasty steaming liquid action you get when you put hot veggies on a plate & the resultant puddle). We have zucchini, squash, eggplant, red and yellow bell peppers, asparagus, sweet potatoes & portobellos, delicious:





I was thinking as I looked at this plate how fortunate I am to live in this country

Zippy,

You took that picture secretly, on the sly, knowing it wasn't ever going to make the forum and all, and you wanted to keep it for your very own self to enjoy later, but it was just too BEAUTIFUL, too inviting, and so very refreshingly gorgeous, that you just had to post it anyway.....Uh, Huh, been there, done that. Hahahaha

It looks perfect - I know your hosts loved it.
