All these excellent recipes have today exposed a significant hole in my very infrequent, supposedly "well planned" shopping trips.
Dwindling spices !!
I went to make a chicken curry tonight, and all I had was curry powder, no garlic or onion
....but I did pick up some locally "grown" ground buffalo,

.....so I'm searching for some recipes, thinking of kicking it up with black pepper perhaps........
.If you have no onion, there are wild scallions everywhere, now at their best. Picture of salmon done on grill in aluminum foil.(no mess) Olive oil on foil, lay on salmon, skin down. Salt, pepper on top. Lay on fresh herbs( I cut wild scallions into 1/2" pieces and added some sage leaves) (I have onion and garlic chives, currently growing in my garden along with hardy rosemary, sage, oregano, marjoram and mint, and thyme and winter savory in pots) I know how cold it is by you, but I went to the Koskiusko land grant in northern New York and was fascinated by his herb garden. General Koskiusko was given several thousand acres there, after the Revolutionary War as tribute to his service to the American colonists. If you plant herbs in a sunny alcove, they will have a better chance to winter. If you buy the perennial varieties, they will come up every year. Put thin slices of butter on top and slices of lemon if you like. Seal the package and cook on low on the barbeque for 15 min. We had to buy what was available, which were 1 1/2 lb packages of salmon (they were not handling and slicing) so we cooked it, then cut into 3 pieces, put one piece in the fridge and made a salmon omlette with asparagus and white cheddar for dinner another night. My wife was rooting around in the attic and found a 10 year old recipe book you might find waiting online at the checkout. This is a one pot meal, and is quite tasty. We substituted 3 sweet Italian sausage links for sausage patties, cut them open and broke into 3/4" pieces, then substituted 2 boneless breasts, cut in half. I know, sausage is fatty, but 3 links divided into 4 portions is not much. Besides a little fat is good for your coat.
