Fish and Sauce
For my fish I made a Veracruz-style sauce. I chopped half an onion and 2
chiles from the garden. There are several varieties out there but I only
recognize 4 of them. These chiles are from one of the plants I don't
recognize. I sauteed the onion and chile in olive oil and butter over a low
heat so the onions got soft but not brown.
When the onions were soft I added 4 chopped cloves of garlic. I continued
cooking over the same low heat for another minute and then added a tomato.
The tomato was from the garden (Champion variety). I had peeled, seeded, and
chopped it before adding it to the pan. I added 6 sliced pimento stuffed
olives and a heaping teaspoon of capers. I tasted. Not quite. I added a
little Kosher salt and some
freshly ground pepper. Taste again.
You know, sometimes you do something that's not very complicated but hits the
target. This tasted so good I was thinking about eating the sauce the way it
was.
