Food! I finished up the poached chicken (2 legs made 6 portions), and now I have pineapple chicken. It's a bit vinegary. Compared to the restaurant pineapple chicken I loved as a kid, this is more sour, less sweet, and darker, so I think they used less vinegar, more sugar, and light soy sauce (rather than all-purpose). I'd say the recipe made 4-ish portions.

Next up: lamb baozi from the ground lamb I have. Mealwise, when I'm done with the pineapple chicken, I'll defrost my salmon filet and make scallion ginger salmon and then try something like pan fried fish or miso salmon with the rest. I still have vendace, ground deer, and beef; I picked up some 30% off chicken breasts and pork neck. I've been eyeing orange chicken for a while, so I'll make that after the salmon, probably. I also got some yeast and froze it – I'll see about making my own nutritional yeast from it so I can make better noodles. (Maybe a noodle soup with the pork neck, hmm...)

This time at the store, I wasn't the only person wearing a mask – I spotted two other shoppers (one East Asian woman, one Finnish man) with masks, and a restocker had a visor on. The cashiers were behind plexiglas, as they have been for a while. The soap shelf was dilapidated, but I managed to get a backup anyway.
