I learn something new about my spouse almost every day. I’m amazed that’s true even after 10 years.
On Sunday, I learned that the iFarmer doesn’t like Tilapia. He’s made no mention of that a number of times that I’ve purchased it as we try to add more fish into our diets. But when I tried to buy a few frozen fillets, raised without antibiotics, at the Winter Farmers Market at our church, he balked.
Still, I was impressed with the AquaRanch that was selling the fish, so I bought some of the aquafarmer’s signature Basil Vinaigrette. Fantastic. OMG. That stuff is addictive. I’m told the aquafarmer’s wife dreamed up the recipe. I need to get to know that farmgirl and see if she’ll share.
Even the River Runner, who we forced to watch American Idol last night (even though he hardly ever watches TV), loved it.
It’s apparently made with basil grown via Aquaponics, a system that combines growing fish, herbs and vegetables in the same water system.
