Of Goats and Greens
A blog for food and cookery and discussions of weird things like nutrition, restaurant excursions, growing food in my own garden, DIY, and farmsteading/homesteading. But, mostly food. Mostly harmless...
I definitely steer to a preference for Real Food. (Would someone's great-grandparent somewhere have recognized that item as food?) Otherwise, I'm an omnivore who travels the world (gustatorially). Yes, I also make use of "odd bits". No, I don't bake desserts much -- I really don't have much of a "sweet-tooth". Nearly all of my recipes in recent years are gluten-free. And other than coconut, my recent and future recipes are tree-nut free, as I have digestive issues with those. There's a strong Paleo influence here.
I try to post recipes every Friday, with potential supplemental posts on Tuesdays.
Please leave me comments! Interacting with folk drives me forward!

Eel…. and Olive.
I had over 2/3rd of an eel left over from Christmas Eve; decided to figure out something fun to do with it, with sort of a Mediterranean flair. So here we go: 2/3rd eel (or the full thing if you … Continue reading
A Tale of Four Fishes on Christmas Eve
Well, we do seem to have a white Christmas, barely. Just enough to coat the grasses and pakisandra, but not adherent to the road or stone. Nice work! At any rate, I did the holiday thing last week when visiting … Continue reading
Eel Be Home for the Holidays
WARNING: at the end of post there is a photo of the eel as it looked when I brought it home. (Some people mistake eels for snakes.) I bought an eel last week at the supermarket. I had them gut … Continue reading

Greek Broiled Eel with Ladolemono Dressing
Contains: Fish. Is: Gluten-free, grain-free, paleo, Whole30. I find my eel once a year down at a ShopRite back in Connecticut – they sell it for Christmastime to a largely-Italian patronage who will consume it for Christmas Eve. I … Continue reading →
