The last few dinners before traveling often involve excavating and eating treats from the freezer. Hence this evening's fried cod bought a couple of weeks ago @catchofthehamptons at the Dag Hammarkjöld @GrowNYC greenmarket. Cod from our nearby waters really is delicious.

Like rösti, but not just potatoes: This one included a julienne of leek and not-too-fierce poblano pepper, both from Juquilita CT Farm at the Dag Hammarskjöld @GrowNYC farmers' market.

A couple of evenings ago we ate a delicious stir-fry of cabbage, pork, leeks, ginger.... Last night, we eked out the leftovers with extraordinarily flavorsome peppers, added some stock and oyster sauce, and reconceived it as a good noodle dish. Fun to eat noodles with chopsticks.

A while ago we had a delicious long-aged rib eye steak from @EatMeaty at @ChelseaMarketNY. I got them to sell me what, in my anatomical ignorance, I'm calling the cap meat that lay over our steak. I froze it, and we ate it this evening; it was wonderful: tender, juicy, flavorful.

Those ripe peppers and tomatoes (all from @GrowNYC market vendors) made quite a beautiful gallon of lecsó. Untypically lush; initially, a shock, but then we could hardly stop eating it (served with spaetzle).

We just got back from the Dag Hammarskjöld @GrowNYC farmers' market. Clearly, it's LECSÓ DAY! Hope there's room in the freezer. (And yes, I know most people use long green peppers for this, but I've always preferred a mix of red varieties.)

And, after just shy of two hours' steaming, our cotechino dinner. Lips still stuck together from all that pig skin. Such a great sausage.

I thought we'd eaten the last cotechino from a batch made a couple of years ago, but, searching in the freezer for something else, I came upon yet another. I believe this really is the last one. We'll eat it a little later with last night's salsa verde & some mashed potatoes.

Eggplant, tomato sauce, caciocavallo, mint. No leftovers (it was a *very* small eggplant).

Charming display of zucchini / courgette blossoms at Lani's Farm at today's @UnSqGreenmarket @GrowNYC. Indeed, the whole market was lush and paradisical, if uncomfortably hot and humid. Too bad we're going away for a few days and couldn't buy much of anything.

"Baby" bok choi / bai cai from Sunday's Stuyvesant Town @GrowNYC Greenmarket. Simmered in a broth made with lots and lots of ginger and a few other things.

Green beans from @SamascottOrch braised with the most delicious tomatoes (and a few other ingredients). Plus just a few cavatelli (home made, but from the freezer - from which they emerged in sterling condition) to make it seem more like dinner.

Beurre blanc! (With tarragon added at the last minute.) Made with good butter from Vermont Creamery and served with perfect cod from Catch of the Hamptons at today's Dag Hammarskjöld @GrowNYC Greenmarket.

edward.schneider Seeing on-line pictures of friends celebrating a landmark birthday or two in Emilia-Romagna, we developed a real yen for egg noodles and ragù. So that's what we ate this evening in lieu of flying to Italy.

The last scrapings of Wednesday evening's corn chowder. We fleshed it out with buttered grilled baguette.

Fried chicken for dinner: boneless thighs from Ox Hollow Farm, halved, bought at the Stuyvesant Town @GrowNYC farmers' market. And as a side, creamed corn, one of the special treats that corn season offers.

Braised flat (Romano) beans, green and yellow, with onion, garlic, tomato, cumin, coriander, mint, parsley and a delicious spice mix I buy in: Ispahan from @laboiteny. Preceded by my wife's herring canapés just as she used to eat them years ago when visiting her Polish friend.
