It’s a very pretty plate but I’m kind meh on the dish. I added some lemon juice which gave it a little more zing
i can no longer count the number of nyt recipes that came out pretty but flat, it's def a thing
Yeah they are not my favorite source for recipes but occasionally I’m like oh hmmm maybe this one
what would life even be if you didn't buy extra things for a fancy nyt recipe that somehow managed not to taste like anything at all, how would you know you were alive lol
It does look amazing! But I suppose I’ll scratch it off my grocery list for today
Do you think more spice/peppers along with the citrus would save it?
Yes. And I think the parsley and basil I got were kind of shitty. It was all very one note. But I think I can riff on it and make it amazing
It should be a flavor bomb and it just wasn’t. Also think next time I’d dice the onions, use less olive oil, throw some crushed red pepper in there, more citrus, etc
Yeah, I’m gonna add some pickled peppers and citrus to punch through the olive oil. And I like the idea of red pepper for the textural element too
I kind of wish I just had a bowl of crispy gnocchi to snack on like popcorn lol
Maybe I’ll pull it back on the grocery list but do some peppers that I’ll pickle, and some lemon for brightness
I also think (just my preference) I’d prefer a mix of roasted and raw tomatoes. The textures were just all a little wonky
hmm a little take on panzanella maybe?
