Thanks, Chrystal! Preserved lemons add such a unique taste to any dish.

The preserved lemons are so nice, so nice. This is a new way to see them used too. Very fresh and light!

Thanks so much,Katie! I am SO happy that your beans were a hit. I’m glad you decided to substitute Great Northerns and that they worked so well. Any white bean should work well in the recipe.

Oh Charles, this sounds wonderful! I can’t wait to try it.

My Cannellini beans were a hit at the 4th of July BBQ, but I had to make them with Great Northern beans because it seems that Cannellini beans just don’t exist in SLO. I probably overlooked the one store that has them, but I did try quite a few. Oh well, they were still good. Thanks.

Robert: Muchas gracias!

Traci: I definitely recommend i love blue sea. Arctic Char is mild in flavor, orange in color like salmon, the texture of trout. It’s really good. Thanks re the pics!

Adele: It’s a great company. Even you guys can get fish from them. Thanks for noticing the incorporation — I created the recipe over time.

Thanks for introducing us all to “i love blue sea”. Great resource to have for seafood. I have never heard of Arctic Char. Is it mild in flavor?
Those were the days back then and look at how cute you were! (Not that you aren’t handsome, now!)
Looking forward to your next post.

Yummm. I loved the flavor and texture of the fish and the pairing of it with the beans and artichokes!
