Like I said, last Saturday I roasted a biiiig chicken<\/a> for Passover, and I anticipated a bunch of other dishes made with meat from that bird.<\/p>\n

This has indeed come to pass. We’ve had chicken sandwiches twice. The first time we both had our sandwiches on brioche rolls I bought at Whole Foods<\/a>, you can see them in a little stack at the upper right of the cutting board. The second time I had mine on Brownberry whole wheat<\/a> that I bought at the co-op, craving some other kinda bread than sourdough (there are bound to be peanut butter & jelly sandwiches for me from that loaf too), and Mark had his on the sourdough discard challah I made on Tuesday. I started off shaping it into a round braid, but I couldn’t get the strands stuck together enough, and ended up mooshing it into a round loaf. I tried it for toast on Thursday.<\/p>\n

We had chicken curry one night, with rice and sourdough discard Naan, must’ve been Tuesday. No pics of the curry, but I made it a la Ruth Reichl’s recipe for Channing Way curry from her book Comfort Me With Apples<\/a>, that I’ve been making since John & Al lived with me to eat it – the book came out in 2001, so a long time. It’s originally a shrimp curry recipe, but I’ve always made it with chicken. She describes it as classic American curry, easy to make, feeds a crowd.<\/p>\n

Last night we had chicken tater tot hotdish, like chicken pot pie with tots instead of crust.<\/p>\n

The hotdish used the last of the meat I pulled off the bones before<\/em> making the chicken stock. Next we’ll have chicken noodle soup, and there’s enough meat for that pulled off the bones after<\/em> they simmered in the stock. And there will still be about a quart of stock to go in the freezer, after I make the soup.<\/p>\n

That sure was a big chicken.<\/p>\n
