Seafood Penne

"Last week a friend and I had a wonderful lunch in a small restaurant/Lounge called Hedi's Wine- Bistro in Salmon Arm B.C. We started off with baked Camanbert with a whole head of roasted garlic-wonderful. Then we had this entree it was so delicious that I asked the chef for the recipe and he obliged. The measurements are for fresh or defrosted sea food- You may be a bit generous with measurement of the seafood. If the seafood is a bit too saucy you may add a tsp of corn starch shortly before finishing the recipe. I am sure that you will enjoy it!"

  1. I found it to be very liquidy, even with adding some cornstarch so i added some tomato paste and cream which helped.. Next time I make this recipe I'll use 3/4 a cup of wine instead of a full cup.. I also added some minced garlic & lemon pepper seasoning <3 yum.
     
  2. This is an absolute winner! Perfect as presented or with a bit of cream.
     
  3. Absolutely loved this, tastes just like it came from a restuarant, I added a splash of heavy cream and a couple of spoonfuls of tomato puree, to make it a little thicker, but went down a storm in my household!!

On January 10 2010 I will celebrate 9 years of Life with Zaar. I can't imagine being without it! It has become part of my daily routine. I feel very privileged to be one of the hosts on the Photo Forum. Taking photos of my culinary efforts is a full time hobby and I love it. My friends all know what to expect when they come to dinner "Are you finished taking pictures?" or "Did you get a photo of so & so?" I never let them wait too long and the food is NEVER cold! I now have over 6000 photos on Zaar - some fairly good and some definitely not so good. I am happy to say that practice does help. My roots are in Vancouver BC Canada - a very beautiful city that holds many wonderful memories for me. In 1990, I decided that for my retirement years I may want to settle in a smaller community and found a slice of heaven in the North Okanagan B.C. I love living here but every once in a while I miss the bright city lights, the Broadway shows and some of the small wonderful ethnic restaurants that Vancouver abounds in. That is easily resolved. I just take a trip to the coast, visit with friends for a weekend see a show and feast on Dim Sum or other specialty foods. I am getting a bit long in the tooth but was a very adventurous person. I have river rafted Hell's Gate on the Fraser river, been up in a glider over Hawaii (no not a Hang Glider!), gone hot air ballooning in the Napa Valley & the Fraser Valley, driven dune buggies on the dunes in Oregon, Para sailing in Mexico and tried many other adventurous, challenging, fun things. I have yet to try bungee jumping or sky diving. I may do them yet. I love to travel and experience other cultures. Mexco has been a favorite haunt. I have visited that lovely country many many times. Australia is another favorite as is England! In the past 16 months I have taken off 61 pounds and feel wonderful. I am off all medications and all systems are GO! In years I may be 79 but in spirit I am still in my forties. We are only as old as we allow ourselves to feel. Always think positive. Do something a bit challenging every day & always do something silly every day. Be a kid again! Laugh every day - it is internal jogging.
