summer solstice meal

[chibidelux]

Summer solstice means long days, where sundown appears close to 10pm. It throws my body off a little, but I'm not complaining. Today's sunny evening required a light dinner -- too lazy to cook, too warm to cook and give off all that heat. So I turned to a plate of cold nibbly bits.

Looks delish but I have an odd question. How did you keep the salami rolled up like that. It seems like it would have unraveled.

[chibidelux]

Haha, funny question! The salami is kinda sticky...you know how you have to kinda peel each slice off each other. I just rolled them up real quick so it was easier to eat with fingers. Yum! And a lot spicier than it looks.

that looks so good! to be honest, i don't know that i have ever eaten raw radish. what it taste like? bitter??

[chibidelux]

I like raw radish a lot :) I buy the organic ones and it shouldn't be bitter. It's crunchy, watery, a little bit of sweetness, and an almost soft peppery bite at the end. The French radishes are better but hard to find in North America -- they are oval-shaped and more dark pink than red, and they don't have that bitter sharp taste that most radishes get here. Mmm!
