pollock with pea and carrot risotto
Orientation started this weekend, which unfortunately kept me out of the kitchen. I've been having a blast though and I'm looking forward to starting the semester. The day Liz and I went to Rue Cler seeking out halibut or haddock for dinner, we ended up with pollock. Honestly, I liked it better! I was told it is similar to a cod, which I've never prepared (so yay). The two of us also had an interesting time at the grocery. Chicken broth is not sold in liquid form... We were nearly in line to purchase vegetable puree but thankfully we were stopped, laughed at and directed to the right aisle. I promise I'll settle down the risotto soon... It just goes so well with fish and is a familiar recipe that doesn't involve an oven!
