What's on your plate today?

Just googled and your right, the recipes didn't mention cheese. I wonder what the recipe I have is then.
Probably Thermidor? It's good. I can deal with certain cheese with seafood, but not Romano or Parm type cheeses. Too strong, and overpower the subtleties of the dish.
 
I toast grated Parmesan on top of mild fish like tilapia. And the are great recipes for shrimp with a Parmesan component to the breading.
 
For dinner, I made spätzle and beer brats. The bratwurst was Johnsonville brand Beer and Brats. They were good. The spätzle was home made.

Cheese is an anathema to fish and seafood is an Italian thing. Scap claims to be Italian. I was just pulling his chain. No need to defend your plebian taste.:D

Doc
 
I've heard of people who put a can of tuna into their Kraft Mac n cheese. The thought makes me want to vomit.

I think there's a lot of folks who don't realize how much seafood Italians eat. All that coast line. We ate a lot as kids. I also wonder if the fact that fresh fish is so much different than frozen or grocery store fish. The stuff around here is vile. I could see loading a bunch of Romano on it to hide the nasty flavor.

I can barely eat tuna out of a can. And it certainly doesn't need to be warmed up.

I'd much rather eat it raw, with some soy and a ton of wasabi.
 
Been to Italy and ate tons of great seafood. No one has to convince me that Italians know their seafood.:D
 
BTW, yesterdays dinner was note worthy. It was my daughter's birthday. Around here we have a tradition. I'll cook any you want on your birthday. So the daughter chose: Anti-pasto: Deviled eggs, crab stuffed mushroom caps, various Italian cold cuts and cheeses. Il Segundo: stuffed shells with ricotta, parm, mascarpone and Mozzarella. La tercera: Tenderloin roast, roasted baby red, white and purple potatoes, roasted cauliflower and broccoli with a balsamic vinegerette.
Desert was strawberry shortcake and whoopee pies. My wife is after all a Woodchuck.
