Salty Saturday is the traditional family bagel and lox brunch we do on the Saturday after ThanksGavin.
For the last couple of years it’s been hosted at my cousin Matt’s house. This year (2019), it’s a touch more subdued than usual due to cooking fatigue.
In his sunny dining room.
Across the way is the kids table.
And a look at the spread.
As usual matt whips up a couple frittatas.
Olives to start.
Gratuitous zoom.
Several kinds of cream-cheese.
Whitefish salad — my salt favorite.
Pickled herring.
Veggies and leftover muhammara.
Onions, I guess, are feeling left out.
And here is my plate — delicious but it did induce ridicule for including 4 full bagel halves!
My mom’s chocolate chip banana bread.
To combat the salt, I also tried a strategy of pounding a cold press coffee, which seemed to work (a bit). Then we got in the car and drove off to New York!
