Not air fried but delish

Tonight instead of frying yesterday’s catch I grilled them on top of the stove on a griddle. I sprinkled them with a little blackening seasoning and put them on. No butter as I didn’t want to smoke up the house as in true blackening. They came out great and even my finicky son in law approved. It’s a great alternative to frying and probably a little more healthy. We also had some white beans with smoked ham hocks over rice and home grown beets fresh out the garden.

That looks plum yummy Mr. Gene. The white beans sound good too.

I blackened some in the house last night. I forgotten that the wife has a fancy alarm that calls if it detects smoke. Guess what Monroe fire department shows up.

At my house the fire dept would be here often.

and you brought out the fine china I see. ;) White beans Yes, beet No!

Nice PPG.....looks and sounds good.....I had beets today also.....love'em.....

You had me hooked until I read the word beet.

If'n you ain't tried fresh beets then you don't have any idea what they are suppose to taste like. Nothing like the can stuff.

Every beet I've ever tried tasted like dirt. Some tasted like dirt with a whole lot of sugar in it. I'm a farm boy and grew up eating vegetables and still do, but I gotta draw the line at beets.....

Very nice pawpaw!

I now know the compatibility of white beans with fish. I think about you every time I cook them. Thanks Gene.

FF,
Next time you get brave enough to try again, wash them well and then brush them with olive oil. Place them in a pan, cover tightly with and pop them in the oven at 375 for an hour. After a hour test them by sticking a knife in them. If the knife goes through easily, they’re done. If there is some resistance put back in oven for 20 minutes. That should do it. When done put a pot or bowl in the sink and put the beets in it. Fill with cold water and let the water continue to run. Pick up each beet and while holding it under the running water rub off the outer skin. Put in plate and slice into 1/4” slices. Salt lightly and feast.

I'll try that Gene. Turnips are fantastic cooked that way too. I take them out of the oven when they start to get a little brown on the sides.

Man that looks great, I prefer pickled beets, but will eat them any way. As long as they are home grown.

Redge I love them pickled also. We canned a couple of dozen jars a few months back.
