Mushroom and tomato ragout over polenta.

I may have over-garnished with the parsley and Parmesan, but there’s definitely a ragout under there.

Looks great. I've been having a hankering for the comfort food of my youth, chicken thighs and rice cooked in cream of mushroom soup. You may have inspired me to whip up a batch sooner rather than later.

I went a little overboard on the cream, so the gravy is a little more pale than I like, but it tasted like 1993 so I don't care.

Thank you for letting me know that Gordon's cup exists, that sounds amazing. Might pass on the caraway though.

Toast caraway seeds, build simple syrup on top, cool, strain. Taste side-by-side Gordon's Cup with it vs normal SS. I really like it, doesn't taste like drinking a rye loaf or anything.

For Valentine's Day, we decided to treat each other by making the most low effort meal possible in order to do things other than cook, so we had Vigo black beans and rice with tomatoes red onion and cilantro



It was delicious and simple

Served with the finest $15 champagne

What temp did you use to get it to cut like a steak like that? I've done a few variations but always done them as falling off the bone, never tried to do a boneless at lower temp.

138F, my new favorite. I have done 140F and 144F at 48 and 72hrs and this is definitely the best I have had them turn out. They sliced pretty easily without completely falling apart but you could still cut them with a fork and still melt you in your mouth.

Wife wants to see if she can eat eggplant without getting sick. Most squashes, zucchini, and cucumber don’t bother her, so let’s see if we can add eggplant to the mix.

Very excited because I used to cook it pretty often, but haven’t cooked it since her stomach problems started.

It’s a recipe my grandma has been making for at least 80 years. People tell me my eggplant stands out more than any other they’ve ever had. Probably because I don’t use breadcrumbs. Every other time I’ve ever had eggplant parmesan it’s always had this unifying taste and texture of breadcrumbs on the outside. I’m still undecided whether I like it with or without breadcrumbs, but people say mine is definitely memorable.

Anyway...

2 big eggplants, get male ones if you hate lots of seeds. I personally don’t care. Peel the skin off with a vegetable peeler and slice eggplant into medallions of preferred thickness.

Lay out eggplant slices on a wire baking rake above some plates or whatever to catch dripping moisture. Lightly salt both sides of each eggplant slice. Slices will begin to weep fluid. Let sit for one hour. After 1 hour, rinse the slices of eggplant under water and pat dry.

Set up bowl with about a cup of flour. Season flour liberally with garlic powder, dried oregano, and black pepper. Mix together.

In another bowl, beat 4 eggs (about two per eggplant).

Heat a healthy amount of canola oil (seems to fry things better than olive oil) over medium heat in a frying pan.

With hands or tongs, take a slice of eggplant and toss it in the flour bowl. Coat the slice with flour and then briefly dip both sides of the eggplant in the egg bowl. Immediately transfer to the frying pan. Repeat until pan is full.

When eggplant bottoms start to lightly brown, flip them over to fry the other side. When slices are done, transfer to a plate with a paper towel to soak up excess oil.

Repeat until all eggplant is cooked. You’ll probably have to add more oil after ever 2nd or 3rd pan full.

When eggplant is all fried, preheat oven to 350 degrees. Drizzle some olive oil on the bottom of a Pyrex baking dish. Oil the sides too to prevent sticking. Add about two tablespoons of your favorite red tomato sauce to bottom of baking dish and spread evenly.

Start adding eggplant in a layer on top of the sauce. Try and “tile” them as efficiently as possible to make as little space between the slices as possible. When first layer is done, add a few more tablespoons of tomatoes sauce and make sure each slice has a decent amount on it. Shake on a liberal amount of pecorino Romano cheese. The first layer is complete

Keep making layers until out of eggplant. Every so often, add some more sauce in holes and gaps in the middle and sides of the layers. Basically try to fill in any empty space. It keeps the layers leveled, and the sauce evenly dispersed. In mine I make sure I add a little layer of mozzarella somewhere in the middle. A little bit of crushed red pepper in one layer probably couldn’t hurt either. Top and final layer I add a decent amount of shredded parmigiano reggiano.

Toss in the oven until cheese starts to melt and sauce begins to boil. Usually about 15 minutes. Turn on the broiler for a couple minutes to get a nice crust on the cheese. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Done.

Perfect to serve over spaghetti or in a sandwich roll.


:siren:Holy poo poo I thought that was going to be a lot shorter!:siren:

Total prep and cook time is about 1.5-2.5 hours.
And looks can be deceiving. Dish is very filling. 8 inch baking dish fed four people so far and there’s still about half left.

I’ve never actually written out the recipe and didn’t realize how many little steps there are. Probably why my mother says it’s too much of a pain in the rear end for her to cook anymore. Whatever. My 93 year old grandma and me will keep holding down the family eggplant.

GWS sometimes intimidates me by how much effort gets put into making complex dishes that look (and probably taste) really good.

But then stuff like the board's discovery and enjoyment of simple stuff like Dragon Noodles happens and I'm reminded that tasty doesn't always have to mean complex or high-effort.

I think a lot of it is also "I put a lot of effort into this meal so of course I want to share it" too. I know whenever I make something that took a lot of time or effort and it turned out good I like taking pictures of it and stuff. But sometimes you're just really happy when something relatively quick and easy tastes great too.

It is a little intimidating to see some of the stuff posted here by people way better at cooking than I am though haha

Like 5 out of 7 days a week my dinner is random stir fried pile of veg and maybe some meat or tofu on rice or noodles just all heaped into a bowl and shoveled into my face. I just don't take photos of that because it would be a better fit in the anti-food porn thread.

Can't be bothered to make photo-worthy food on a workday. Something that tastes good and has a sub 30 minute prep and cleanup time is what I'm looking for.

A lot of the time I do most of my cooking on Sunday and just have microwaved bowls of leftovers the entire week to avoid even that 30 mins of effort.

Meatless weekdays for me.

I do a lot of stuff with mushrooms, tofu, tempeh, and other veggies during the week.

A few things I don’t mind busting out quickly when I get home from work on a weekday:
-pad thai
-stir fry
-tacos (so simple but so much cutting)
-chicken and rice
-swordfish steak
-any kind of pasta with veggies
-tuna salad
-pizza
-Shepard’s pie
-hamburgers
-sashimi

I can make a frittata pretty quick too, so I’m making one tonight.
