Whenever my mom makes an outstanding recipe, she always writes "do-over" next to it in her cookbook. The spicy red fish (I used Dover sole and calamari) stew I made last night is absolutely a do-over. It was chocked full of nutrition and truly tasty. Miles the cat agreed. As you can see, he snuck in to my picture of the stew on our dippers of whole wheat pita with melted cheese.
A simmering pot of stew on the stove makes the whole house smell delicious, but according to a recent poll from the UK, fish and chips tops the list of all-time favorite smells. The top ten heavenliest scents are as follows:
1. Fish and chips
2. Bread baking
3. Clean sheets
4. Mown grass
5. Fresh air after rain
6. Fresh coffee
7. Babies
8. Bacon frying
9. Lemon zest
10. Roast dinner
I'm not so confident fish in any form would make such a list compiled in the US!I am a registered dietitian with the National Fisheries Institute, so fish is my nutrition forte. I earned my BA in Communication from Southwestern University, just outside of Austin, TX. During college, one of my very favorite evening outings was a leisurely trip to the healthful food market. My passion for food was undeniable, so I combined both of my interests by earning my MS in Nutrition Communication from Tufts University in Boston, MA. As well as my Registered Dietitian (RD) credential through the University of Delaware.
Beyond reading scientific studies about docosahexaenoic acid and selenium, I love to entertain, travel, watch reality TV, grill outdoors, and go to spin class. I live in Washington, DC and am surrounded by a cast a characters you will get to know as you read my blog, including my fiancé (Lloyd), my cat (Miles), and my three sisters.
