Sardines

Eastside Road, January 11, 2014—

WHY DO WE SO rarely think of sardines? There are not many more delicious quick suppers, nor many more nutritious. Cook sliced and toasted some white bread, sliced a white onion, washed some lettuce leaves, opened a jar of local dill pickles, and then a can of good sardines.

Whenever possible — and it seems to be every year or so — she buys a few tubes of that good Dutch mayonnaise (one of the few commercial prepared products we eat), and that comes in handy on this sandwich. And then afterward a good green salad, and what more do we need?
