A Recipe Post

Two today.

Recipe the First, for Toronto Fish. When I was young, JJ was allergic to all the things. He had every nut allergy, molds and mildews, and egg whites. You know how hard it is to find food without egg whites in it? Thus, he thought in general that flavor was some kind of travesty, and would not eat anything he couldn't drown in ketchup. Up to and including Cheerios.

So, this one time, we were in Toronto, and my parents could not get any protein into him. To be fair, the available protein was cheese or fish. We went to this restaurant, where MW got the salmon and coaxed JJ to try some. Then he ate it all. Then MW got more and he ate that too. Then MW went up and got the recipe from and incredibly accommodating staff. The recipe they gave was like, "put in some of this and some of this and some of this," but it worked, and from then on we had a fish that JJ would eat. It is called Toronto Fish because that is where we got the recipe.

Recipe the Second, for no-bake peanut butter cookies. This is written on the back on a napkin, and I want it someplace less . . . loosable. I have never made these myself, but I have eaten them and can tell you they are pretty fantastic. They do have a tendency to glue your mouth shut, though.
