I’m not sure which of those look better!

Totally TDF. Big sigh.

crisped cured pork is a dinner cure-all.

and that poached egg definitely garners you an invite to the poached egg hall of fame.

I’m with you, sister. I hunker down in the summer and batton down the hatches. Don’t make me go outside!!! Winter, no problem (‘course, you don’t really get that there). If I’d had an idea as simple and gorgeous as that Caesar, I’d want opt to stay in anyway.

“it always amazes me what you can come up with just by poking around�”

I’m starting to realize that. And your dinner is truly lovely.

I think you’ve ruint me for Wendy’s. I looked at the first pikchure and said to myself, “damn, that looks like bottarga!”. I’m not sure if I should be glad I recognized it, or sad that I’m not eating it.

That looks beautiful and delicious. And healthy. I can always count on you for that.

Sounds like you need to live up in the good ole Pacific NW. We’re looking at a tolerable 60 degrees today. First day of summer, my ass.

day-um these searing temps in nashville right now….thank goodness for
salads and rustic breads and poached eggs
I, too, am a fan of the Twin Forks Bread, and your chic breakfast-for-dinner suits my mood in this heat.

The bread looks so wonderful. I can practically see that wonderful texture in the photo. I would so love to have it with your eggs and your speck and all that other good stuff you cooked up there.

Oddly enough, poking around through the odds and ends in my pantry has never yielded bottarga….sigh….

Looking at pictures of poached eggs always makes me wish I woke up in time for breakfast.

Honestly, the name “bohemian loaf” was maybe one of the least appetizing things I’d ever heard. But then when it was just a hearty bread, I changed my mind.

I like your second option. I’m still a-feared of bottarga.

I imagine a Bohemian loaf to be more of a lounging-on-a-brocade-divan-smoking-a-hookah-with-Henry-Miller-and-Ana�s-Nin kind of thing, but I’ll take your word for it.

Love, LOVE a good loaf of bread. I just made Jim Lahey’s no-knead bread you posted about previously. I, too, made mine in my Romertopf and it was absolutely divine. Crispy, airy, amazing!

Fabulous bread! I’m drooling over the grilled mozzarella with bacon and basil. What could be better?

I love that bread. I’m going to visit David’s farm in the next week. The idea of mozzarella and speck is perfect.
We put slices of his bread on the grill. Hard to stop eating though.

What an interesting combo. I would never have thought of it and of course dunking that fabulous bread into the runny egg with salad makes it my kind of feast.
Please Please cook for me !!!!!
I guess I have to poke around my food cabinet and come up with—– canned sardines with onions on an everything bagel.

true true, poking around can sometimes lead to a wonderful invention and sometimes just simple and delicious — i’m happy either way.

That is one gorgeous egg. I’m trying to do more with what’s around…a caesar for lunch, but no egg! Would’ve been perfect…
