The mother of invention

Who would have thought of using Madeleine trays to serve your oysters on. Clever (see extra).

Nice colours at the Sunday farmers market.

I found myself watching Rick Stein's Seafood Odyssey when I got back. The series was first broadcast in 1999 when it was considered quite innovative. It's interesting how his repertoire has become part of our culinary language.

I draw the line at deep fried tempura oysters though. I prefer them au naturelle.
