JP Eats Food Blog. Welcome to my food (and wine) blog. I am very lucky to enjoy good food and wine pretty frequently. I also spend a good deal of time learning and experimenting with both. The point of this blog is to share some of that with you as well as help me remember foods, wines, and little bits and pieces of information I pick up along the way. I rarely take pictures in nice restaurants, so most of what you see here comes from my kitchen, my friends' kitchens, or various casual and local hot spots. You can hit the archive, or never miss a post with rss.



Fried blowfish. Northern puffer, actually. Blue Moon Fish had these out, and I love trying all of the random sea creatures they have for sale from time to time. Turns out these things are really good—just quickly fry them in some bread crumbs and serve with whatever sauce you like. There’s a spine going down the middle, but each side peels off easily. The flavor is pretty mild, not fishy like many little fish or gamy like frog legs, which they sort of resemble. I’d recommend giving these a try if you find them available.
