Recipe?

I didn't really use one, and may have been half in the bag when I started cooking :D

Sweated down some onion and garlic while I heated some butternut squash puree I had in the freezer (roast butternut squash with salt and olive oil - blend). Added the rice to the aromatics and cooked until I got impatient. Then half a glass of white wine, stir, veg stock, stir, veg stock, stir, etc. Toward the end I added the now warm puree, salt and pepper. Threw some butter in a pan and some fresh rosemary as it started to bubble and browned (I wasn't actually going for brown butter, but it was a happy accident). Toasted up some pine nuts. Plated and crumbled some goat cheese over the top.

The rosemary got super crispy. The whole thing was insanely good. Will definitely be making this again!

This looks beautiful, cool basil. Potato salad looks ballin' as I am totally pro-radish.
I'm gonna be the dude that says it though.
Why chicken and waffles? Why? This is a food thing that I just do not get. I get waffles, and I get good chicken. I do not get them together. There is just no reason for them to go together, I don't care what people say or how trendy it is. It's bullshit and stupid.
It'd be like "well mashed potatoes and jello both taste good and can both taste good together so put them together!" and then it became "a thing" and now it's supposed to be respected. I just don't get it.

I mean it's a pretty old thing, soul food wise, and yes it got trendy with Tarantino putting it in a movie or whatever. But as to the "why?" of it I guess the answer, like many foods, is just "why not?"

Why eat grits with chitlins? Why put eggs in a burrito? Why eat boiled sea insects?

You can tell us you're white in one post, you don't have to make a bunch of bad ones disparaging one of the best food combos ever.

My go-to chicken and waffle topping is honey and a pepper sauce of some kind (cholula, tobasco, etc.)

Have you eaten it? It's delicious.

It's basically a fried chicken sandwich (good) but the bread is fried (good) and you have an excuse to eat fried foods for brunch (good good good)

You don't even need syrup or honey for it to be a winning combination, that's just icing on the steak

Also try savory waffle BLTs:

other savory things that are good on waffles include sausages, bacon, eggs, ham, cheese and probably some other stuff. i like all those things with hot sauce but hell maple syrup is good too.

Phil did you ever hear about Chicken and Waffles when we were younger? The whole time in NOLA growing up I'm not sure that I ever did. Really only recently heard about it being touted as a 'Southern' thing but never saw it much personally. Could just be I never went to the right places but I kinda had the suspicion of it being more of a marketing thing than actually a southern thing.

I never heard of it until the early 2000s, but I didn't really eat or know about soul food growing up---of my family only my maternal grandmother is southern, everyone else is french and italian so that is the kind of food I grew up eating. Just reading a bit about C&W it does seem to be something that maybe migrated down here from the northeast in the first half of the 20th century.

e. I mean everyone eats fried chicken, corn bread, grits, macaroni and cheese and other things that could be called "soul food" but I didn't have an understanding of it as such.

...is a
WORK OF FICTION!!



The story I'd heard about chicken and waffles was that rather than in the south, it originated around Harlem jazz clubs, where the musicians would finish their sets in the wee hours of the morning, too late for dinner but too early for breakfast.

Edit: Okay, here we go, a little later than planned. Lately I've been on a serious prosciutto kick and I wanted to get outside my comfort zone, so I decided to try my hand at pizza. For the proof-of-concept I got some predone pan pizza crusts, mixed a little merlot and crushed garlic with my marinara sauce, and topping-wise I went with shredded prosciutto, sundried tomatoes, and fresh mozzarella. While they were baking (I did two for redundancy/backup's sake) I also tried poaching some eggs and here is how it turned out:



Since they both turned out well I had some friends help eat them and now I'm looking forward to trying a more involved homemade crust attempt!

Since pineapples are cheap right now I made some sweet and sour pork belly and served it in the husk for the kids. They got a p good kick out of it. There's fried rice underneath the pork so they could just eat out of them as bowls.

Thank you. That looks fantastic by the way. As a Tampa native I'll say it's a shame there's no salami, gonna have to modify that recipe slightly.

I think they actually could've done with a touch more liquid in the mix. Will soak for a full 24 hours next time (this was 15) and maybe up the onion slightly. They were incredibly crispy/crunch on the outside which was really nice. Overall I was pretty drat pleased with them!
