What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Foodstuff Redefined: Zen Himalayan Plate! Go above ordinary ingredients and transform your palate with a meal on the Himalayan salt plate. Foods pick up a delicate saltiness that transcends the flavor and leaves behind monotony. By creating bite-size pieces of fish, shellfish, and cucumber sushi, nourishment balances out the inner peace from within. Good for health-crazed affenciados as well as those soul-searching for expression.
ZEN HIMALAYAN PLATE
Ingredients:
3.75-ounce tin Wild Caught Sardines, in olive oil
1 lemon, sliced and quartered
3.75-ounce tin smoked oysters
Fresh lemon thyme
7-ounces prepared crab dip
4 mini cucumbers, seedless
Fresh dill
Assorted crackers
Instructions:
Arrange sardines on a Himalayan salt plate. Drizzle with olive oil from the tin. Place lemon wedges on fish and garnish with fresh lemon thyme. Smoked oysters may be served in individual sea shells. Drizzle with sauce from the tin. Oysters may also be served on a cracker. To assemble the cucumber sushi, slice mini cucumbers into thick rolls. To remove the inside portion of each disc, place the cucumber on a cutting board, use a sharp knife, and rotate the cuke until the center is cut out. Make sure the walls remain. Discard fleshy pulp. Place the cucumber “rings” on the Himalayan salt plate. Spoon prepared crabmeat dip into each ring. Press gently to fill the sushi roll. Garnish with dill.
Gail as soon as I read Himalayan salt I thought of the Himalayan salt lamp my friend bought me. It is said to have be good for you when turned on. Haven’t noticed any difference in my health but it looks pretty.

Thank God I got back here for Z. After the start to the week I had, I could use some peaceful meditation, while snacking on this light and tasty meal. I love seafood and fish, and I still have a few fresh cucumbers in my garden. Thanks.

Foods gently absorb the salt, releasing unbelievable flavor. Afterwards, simply wipe it clean and it’s ready for the next dish. 🌿😍🌱🍃
