Reposted from last post of previous thread Been able to take some pictures recently, still trying to figure things out: Pancakes with berries: Greek Yogurt with Pomegranate and sheep Piadina with Cus Cus and Salad (and some pomegranate) Panino with bean burger I haven't sprung for any software yet but I'm starting to see the limitations of iPhoto so it might be time. I tried setting white balance using the method in the Wiki but things still seem yellow. baw fucked around with this message at 19:34 on Nov 24, 2014 |

My wife got 2gallons of free goat's milk, so I made chevre! It tastes great (I just added a little salt and fresh rosemary) I think I drained it for a bit too long though, but luckily I have enough goat's milk left over to try again.

paraquat posted:wow...never even heard of that, it looks like something I definitely need to eat! Basically it's a rich stew with a dumpling top, in this case a beef, oyster and Guiness stew with horseradish scone dumplings. What I've found that it's best to make the scones thin as if they puff up too much, they can be dry. Plus they're best made with suet. Aside from that, use the scone/dumpling part as a means to add fresh herbs into the mix or other flavours. It's very adaptable and good for winter.

We had a bunch of leftovers to go through, so my mom and I threw together some chicken, veg, mushrooms, cream, and chicken stock in a baking dish, then topped it with my favorite drop biscut recepie. It was delicious. Mild enough for mom, and i just threw on my own hot sauces on my own portions.

I don't have the minerals to leave the house on National DUI Night, so I'm getting some Thanksgiving prep done. I doubt there are any holdouts on this in GWS, but just in case: don't buy canned cranberry sauce, making it from scratch takes about 5% more effort than opening a can and tastes 100% better.

The beef version will come first though, I have an awesome islamitic butcher around the corner with beef that is excellent for stewing...not completely sure what it is they sell, but the beef from my supermarket takes at least 4.5 hours to get near the edible stage and theirs falls apart in 1.5 hours (and is way more delicious) I am a fan of chicken and mushroms as well, so your version will be next, thanks!

Could be what the cow was fed, the quality of food it was fed, post butchering treatments that bulk chain butchers do (gross). I've stopped buying meat from the grocery store and started buying from local butchers at the farmers market. I buy a hundred or so bucks worth of meat and then freeze it all in my deep freeze. To contribute, I made a sort of janky white person's stir fry last night.

Yep, that's before it went into the oven. Not very photogenic after. I had a bit too much pasta / too little sauce for the size of dish so it appears dry. I like how the cabbage stains the pasta. Sliced red cabbage (like 1/4" - not too fine) cooked under foil in hot oven with a little oil for 30 mins, then uncovered and turned a few times for 10 mins. Then mix, add cheese and bake. Next time I'll use more sauce and some ricotta cheese. Rurutia that cake looks amazing. sweat poteto fucked around with this message at 08:57 on Nov 28, 2014 |

Finally found some freekeh (in Waitrose, obviously) - made pilaf with roasted veg and a shittonne of herbs, spice and lemon juice. Recipe said pilaf serves 2-4. It did not. Not pictured: non-healthy still hungry snacks later in the evening...

I can get freekeh pretty much everywhere here, but it's always totally full of stones. Did you have the same problem with the stuff from Waitrose?

Juice Box Hero posted:Wow that is pretty amazing looking. does the smoke flavor penetrate the meat even through the skin? Yeah it does pretty well. You don't get as visible a ring and a real bite from the smoke like you do with a brisket but it gets in nicely. Also the low and slow keeps it really juicy and tender overall.

angor posted:I can get freekeh pretty much everywhere here, but it's always totally full of stones. Did you have the same problem with the stuff from Waitrose? Entirely stone-free; this was in a pouch rather than a pack, essentially ready to eat stuff that I guess has been well processed. First time I've ever seen it so I went for it even though it wasn't exactly how I'd have liked it. Truth be told though, I didn't even realise stones in freekeh was a thing. If I do find the real stuff, I'll try and make sure it's unadulterated.

I made my first from scratch soup ever. Roasted the turkey, made stock from the carcass, and made the soup with everything fresh except for the egg noodles. And it is edible! Actually really tasty
