Heart of the City by Steenz for November 22, 2024

After it’s cooked and mixed into the Jambalaya you won’t even notice it. At the moment she’s chopping green peppers. I love green peppers, in my chili, omelet, all sorts of stuff,

Had some bad sake. Stir fried celery in it. The result tasted pretty good.

Like it or else

Onions… My old nemeses…

Well I don’t like peppers, but no worries.

What kind of green peppers? Bell peppers?

I grew up in south Louisiana, and there were always so many Cajun/creole foods I couldn’t stand. It wasn’t until much later that I learned about the Trinity and finally understood the problem. (I’m one of those people for whom bell peppers are both disgusting and overpowering.)

It doesn’t matter if it is Creole holy Trinity, Italian soffrito, or french Mirepoix, celery, and onions, are always the major part of any flavor base

Celery is good, expecially with fish.

She’s never had celery properly prepared. Only the bare celery sticks in a school lunch.

And then they ruin it all with okra.
