It does look good and your production is great. Just the title of the video is the name of the pizza oven, which we see quite a bit, whole lot of effort to make a video to post on SA, etc.

Totally fair! I've spent 8 years working on my pizza, and have gone through 5 iterations of oven - this Pizza Party is just a rad oven for the money, I'm very proud of it :) You can see my post history in this thread alone - I've come a long way in my pizza and ovens!

My Trinidad Scorpion Chocolate chillies are finally ripe, so I picked a few and made garlic & chilli butter, which I then used to baste my 600g ribeye :D. Delicious and radioactive... Sorry for the poor quality phone pics but I was drinking heavily and watching my football team lose so I'm shocked that I remembered to take any photos at all.

Salmon with dill and a quinoa cucumber salad dressed with a lemon vinaigrette. My wife made this on Saturday night and I absolutely demolished it.



I tried pressure cooking a chicken. It worked SUPER well, but took almost twice as long as the "5 minutes per pound" rule I ran into everywhere when I was investigating it. The skin was a lost cause but it's okay since I was just planning to pick it apart anyway.



Here's a bowl of stock that came out of the pressure cooker. It came to about a quart and once chilled, had a nice half inch of schmaltz on top. What should I use both the schmaltz and the stock for?



I know it's not pretty but this was my first attempt at shakshuka and it came out loving dynamite. I'll need to cook the eggs a bit less next time so the yolks are runnier, but it was so good that I couldn't stop shoveling it into my face while burning hot...so much so that it had me sweating (along with the extra serrano I threw in there).

I made some elderflower syrup! It was surprisingly easy, I just soaked fistful of flowers in some water for a day and got about 500 ml of deliciously potent flower syrup. I'm gonna gather a good bag and make a huge bottle or two, plus maybe try my hand at elderflower liqueur. Elderflower everything, they're weeds anyway :neckbeard:


Sweet potato, carrot and pea samosas plus spicy peach and ginger chutney.

... Insert something brilliantly witty here.
Kind of terrible mobile photo (and not best plated because of that), while my main camera is being borrowed by a friend for a few days, but I've been on a seafood kick recently - especially while working lates, as it's pretty quick to prepare and cook.



Grilled prawns on a bed of shredded carrot and cucumber, crispy fried noodles, miso-soy sauce, garnished with chilli, coriander, and spring onion.


The day before I did prosciutto-wrapped cod served on mixed bean salad with paprika-flavoured couscous and baby tomatoes (tomkin variety), but apparently the photo didn't save. Welp.

I made home made french fries. Thin cut, w/ a brine solution of water, 1 part salt, 2 parts sugar. Next time will make it 1-1 so the sweetness is balanced out. Twice fried, turned out real tasty and the color was lovely. Sorry for crappy phone pics.

How much potatoes, how much water, and how long did you brine them for? They were sliced already I presume?

I've done fries before but I can never get them to the restaurant shoestring quality I want. Did you parboil? What kind of oil?

I fuckin love French fries and I want to make them good!

These potatoes were kinda small, so I used about 5 or 6 of them. They were in the brine for about 12-15 minutes, not very long at all and yes, they were added in when sliced.

I can't say I was going for restaurant shoestring quality because that would involve other time consuming steps (such as freezing; overnight in the freezer really changes the texture of fries) and also, I was not following a recipe. No parboiling was done and in this instance, I used a mixture of olive and canola oil because I was at a friend's place and they didn't have enough of the latter. I would personally just use all canola or vegetable oil because your fries won't be as oily and it heats up faster.

For the first fry, I cooked it for about 7-10 minutes on high before taking it out and letting them cool on a tray. Then put it back in the oil, fry for another 5-7 minutes medium high until you get a nice golden brown (the sugar brine helps bring a caramel colored coat as well as bring out the sweetness of the potato). The end result were golden fries with a crisp outer coating and creamy interior. Like I mentioned, a little on the sweet side, so less sugar in the brine is ideal for me because I wanna aim for savory fries.

Oh yeah, and the potatoes were russet.

If you are very interested in fries, you should try Heston blumenthal's thrice-cooked fries. It's fussy and takes forever but the fries are legit remarkable.

This is approx, as I eyeballed it completely

Ingredients:

1 clove garlic
0.5" ginger
2x birds eye chillis
1 tea spoon sesame oil
2 spring onions
half a carrot
120g pork loin
1 egg
sesame seeds
sriracha
veg stock
dried egg noodles (medium)


Medium hard boil egg for 7-8min then cool in cold water.

Slice spring onions and carrot, and one chilli.

Finely dice 1 chilli, garlic and ginger. Fry at a low heat in sesame oil for a few minutes.

Add veg stock cube, 3-400ml water and some sriracha to the ginger/garlic/chilli and simmer for 9-10 minutes. Then put the noodles in (6 mins).

As the broth is simmering put pork loin under the grill for 3-4 mins each side, rest in tin foil. Put the noodles/broth in a bowl, remove shell from the egg, add the carrot, spring onion, chilli and egg. Thinly slice the pork loin and add that, then top with a little more sriracha and a few sesame seeds.

Struggle with chopsticks.

That food looks real good, and also, do those chopsticks have little grippy ridges? Where can I get chopsticks with little grippy ridges? The very concept of chopsticks having little grippy ridges is really blowing my mind.

I believe these are the ones I have, they do have little grippy ridges... not that it makes me any less useless with chopsticks.

A huge majority of chopsticks you buy that are actually proper chopsticks will have some kind of indentation or something at the end ostensibly for grip on the food.

The tips that are roughened and vaguely sandpaper like are a lot better than the tips that have ridges cut into them. Seems like a lot of internet sellers don't care about showing the tips of the chopsticks, though. Best way is if you can browse a good Japanese store like Uwajimaya.

I suppose I can only speak to the ones I saw in my area (HK Chinese mainly) while shopping for chopsticks. The only ones IIRC that didn't have indents were the ones less than $15.

That doesn't make them any less 'proper chopsticks' just cause they're cheap hahaha. Most of the time when I see the indented ones, they're used for cooking tbh. I've never seen a family use the indented ones mostly because everyone just buys the huge packs of cheap ones that have pretty nice slick comfortable wood.

Tonight was an experiment. Chilean sea bass cooked sous vide in duck fat on top of quinoa with parmigiano reggiano topped with a spicy chimichurri. The "scales" are thinly sliced zucchini blanced in salt water with a few drops of fish oil. It was pretty drat good for a first attempt.
