What's your favorite Greek food? ↗

I usually go for lox, bagel, cream cheese, onions and capers. And some fruit.

[midnightmoon05]

Yummy 😋 I can eat a whole tray of lox by itself hehehee

@midnightmoon05 Hah, me too!

[midnightmoon05]

Where do you get your lox? And what brand?

[Opinion Owner]

@midnightmoon05 Good question! Lox is super expensive so I don't buy it very often. I buy a side of salmon (usually "steelhead", actually) from Costco and cure it myself with salt and sugar, and maybe some fresh dill.

When I buy it I make sure the sell-by date is at least 4 - 5 days out. Preferably it shows as packaged the day I buy it. I'll lightly smoke it sometimes, if I have the time and energy, but usually I just eat it after curing.

It's easy to do if you want to give it a try. Just Google "how to make gravlax" and you'll find plenty of "recipes". Some will suggest putting a heavy weight on the salmon as it cures, but I prefer not to. It forces more moisture out of the flesh, and the texture ends up a little too dense and dry for my taste.

Wild salmon cannot be used for this purpose because wild salmon have spent time in the ocean where they can pick up parasites. Costco salmon is farm raised in pens where they are not exposed to parasites, so it is safe to eat raw.

Anyway, I hope that helps. I'm happy to help with any questions you might have. Enjoy your weekend.

Thank you for sharing. It’s a lot of work. I don’t like to do work heheh….
I tried the brand costco sells. I don’t like it. So I stick with ACME. Local market sells.
I live in NY area… there is a fish whole sale warehouse. We sometimes go there and stock up. Lox, white fish. Yum!!

@midnightmoon05 Nice, it sounds like you and I have similar tastes. I love anything from the sea. My girlfriend, not so much. But she has lots of other redeeming qualities, lol.

[midnightmoon05]

I love seafood and I love see food lol
Enjoy!

I usually get different things but almost always include an omelette.

[Asker]

So it doesn't differ much from an average breakfast?

[Abbycado]

My normal breakfast is fruit and granola. When I go to brunch, I’ll get an omelette, maybe bacon, toast or bagel, etc. I eat a lot more when I go out and keep it simple during the week.

[Asker]

I like granola for breakfast too.
Of course, I like omelette too, but with smoked seitan instead of bacon XD

[Abbycado]

I usually do the works. Peppers, cheese, ham and so on. They ask me which ingredients at the omelette station. I just answer.

Yes. XD

[Abbycado]

Ty for mho!

Brunch, a delightful blend of breakfast and lunch, is the perfect opportunity to indulge in both sweet and savory flavors. I usually opt for dishes like avocado toast topped with a perfectly poached egg, a habit I picked up in Melbourne. Pairing it with a side of freshly baked croissants and a strong cup of coffee makes it absolutely satisfying. On some weekends, I might explore a Japanese-style brunch, enjoying dishes like tamagoyaki, a sweet rolled omelet, which always reminds me of mornings at Tsukiji Market in Tokyo. 🥑🥐🥚
