Nora, have you ever tried Steen's on fried trout? My great-grandfather used to do that.
Time for some thrilling heroics.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I don't know about this feta idea. Does it melt?
Not really, but it softens.
Wait, if people don't make a roux, how do you make mac and cheese?
You just add the milk and butter to the orange powder?

I've seen a recipe for mac and cheese that used cottage cheese.

Come visit me, Jen! I will put it on your plate!
Re: roux. I need to do it in a pan that's not a cast iron pan, because I can't monitor the subtleties of the roux color and end up pulling it early. Oh! Roux wars: whisk or wooden spoon?

Vortex, with buttermilk and shredded sharp cheese? And then baked?

Wooden spoon! Charismatic wooden spoon, even.

Nora, I use either, depending on what's clean. The whisk does work an iota better with less gloppy sticking. I end up making the roux in le creuset pot which is easier to see because of the white enamel.

That is exactly what I use, Kat, my Le Crueset Dutch oven. Which is why I use a wooden spoon, so I don't scratch up the enamel. Very prissy of me, I know.

Woo! The company would be the best part of that, of course, but I would eat. Oh, but how I would eat!
Now I'm retroactively sad about my dinner. PB&J and some (admittedly yummy) lentils.
