You managed to make nachos that don't look like food vomit which is very impressive.

I mean, we make vermicelli-esque things all the time, shrimp or glazed pork or w/e, some veggies, sweet chili sauce + some other stuff my wife puts in for a sauce. Basically what I'm saying is those types of meals are fabulous.

Didn't get a pic but made my first carbonara last night! :toot:

The pan was a little hot so some egg was scrambled throughout, otherwise was good. Used bacon in place of pancetta in a recipe.

Any excuse to spactchcock a bird, so I did a sheet tray spatchcocked chicken, with some fancy mushrooms and kale.

Got a 6 -pound chicken, spatchcock'd it. Covered the bird in olive oil, generously in kosher salt then ground up un-hydrated porcini mushrooms into a powder and equal cayenne.



Cut up 2 lemons, cut into ½-inch slices for a platform then some sage sprigs and rosemary sprigs then sat the bird down.



hydrated 1 cup porcini mushrooms.



(reserving the shroom juice for something, not sure yet)



3 cups shiitake mushrooms, 2 cups royal trumpet mushrooms, quartered 2½ cups maitake mushrooms, torn, some lemon zest,
4 garlic cloves smashed, 1 jalapeno, thinly sliced into rings and more olive oil and kosher salt.



Surround the bird with the mushroom mixture.



475F until the thigh reads 165 with the probe.

2 cups kale, roughly chopped, kosher salt and olive oil, place on the mushroom mixture then stick it back in the oven for about 5 more minutes.



Voila. Broke the chicken down and served it all on wild grain rice. You can't see it but the bird drippings and mushrooms and olive oil made for a wonderful little sauce.

But for the first time in my life, I think I've gone too far.
Phone cameras, yaaay.


Oven roasted some beef with potatos and onions for around 4 hours, roasted some beets, and sautéed the beet greens. The beet and beef juice have blended into some strange pink liquid in the plate, which the potatos have begun to soak up.

I've never had beets before, and peeling them was scary. I kept checking my fingers to make sure I hadn't cut myself.

Fish was cheap so I Japaned. Saury shioyaki, catfish kabayaki, some cucumber salad thing I don't know if it has a particular name, basic miso soup. My toaster oven broiler didn't really brown the saury enough before it was cooked through, sadly underpowered.

That's daikon oroshi next to the fish? Do they have daikon outside of Japan? I never really see it except for Korean pickles outside of Japanese food.

Did you gut the fish or does it come that way? I've never been able to get into sanma guts, but I know a lot of people who eat them like they're going out of style.

Yeah it's daikon oroshi and some homemade gari which I can't be bothered to try to cut thin enough for the real thing. I've never thought of daikon as unusual. It's sold everywhere in Korea and China and was around pretty normally where I'm from in the US.

I gutted them. Not into the bitter bile thing.

It's probably sold near you as well, but you might need to check out ethnic stores....and daikon is sold under numerous different names!


for example, in my neck of the woods (the Netherlands), it is called rettich or sometimes (white) rammenas, seldom daikon.

I mainly buy them from Turkish grocery stores, but pretty much all ethnic stores sell them.
big supermarkets over here do not sell them (probably because they figure that their customers are not willing to buy these gigantic things when they have no idea what they are or what they should do with them)

My first time seeing daikon for sale was at a farmer's market this weekend, in Texas. They already had the top and the root tip cut off, though.

I'm in Calgary, you actually can't buy it retail here even though Alberta has a horse slaughterhouse or two, we export all our horse-meat to Quebec and Europe. A Czech lady I know managed to source some through a guy she knows for $10/kg. This particular piece is about 3kg (7lb). It has the texture of beef, but it has a pretty unique flavor. I've found it to be a bit tougher than beef, so I usually brine it for 24 hours before roasting. I really like it.

If you want horse in the US, you must buy a living animal and slaughter it yourself, for yourself.

Horse is legal overseas where Horses have medical passports, where every change of ownership, medical procedure, and drug given to them is recorded. There is accountability in regards to what is in the animal and what is entering the food system. In the US, there is no such documentation.

Yet a lot of the horses that end up in EU certified slaughterhouses in Canada and Mexico are raised in the USA.

Screw plating! Screw presentation! Here's a big ol dutch oven (half) full of Curry Stand Tikka Masala

I don't feel right using store-bought curry powder so I made my own with Chow Hound's "Traditional" British Curry Powder



Turned out pretty good. Could've used a bit more salt. Plus I used actual ginger instead of ground ginger which I think would've given it more kick.

I use flour, egg, panko with a little smoked paprika and lemon.

I made Cornish pasties! Well not exactly, I didn't add beef this time around. These were onion, potato, turnip, and cheddar. Salt, pepper, thyme, and parsley. Next time I'll add a bit of mustard I think, but these were REALLY tasty, even though I added way too much water to the dough.




I have 260g of dough left over. What should I do with it?

Is it just me or are these indistinguishable from baked empanadas except for the filling?
