This is probably cheaper ounce per ounce than making your own, and keeps basically forever in the fridge. It takes a LOT of meat to reduce down to not very much demiglace. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0010OQQ2Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Kvk6CbZV4ES04

For pan sauce stuff you can just use boxed low sodium stock and cook it down a lot after you deglaze the pan. Wait until it’s reduced to season. Demiglace does definitely take it up to the next level though.

Half the point of demi is the amount of gelatin in it. If you're being lazy and using a boxed stock to deglaze, a pack of gelatin really helps get that unctuous mouthfeel.

I was feeling motivated, so I made chilaquiles from scratch yesterday,


And I had slow roasted turbot with patatas bravas for dinner, which looked unremarkable, but the side dish looked pretty: red amaranth, flowered chives soaked in xiaoxing and beer battered zucchini blossoms.

All of this looks incredible!



I made stir fried noodles topped with the seriouseats spicy peanut sauce yesterday. Literally every seriouseats recipe is solid gold, and usually stupidly easy to make. My only mistake was ignoring the instructions to simply serve the sauce as-is. I like my food to be hot so I heated it on the stove top and it got too thick for drizzling, durr durr. I will trust the instructions next time. This also would have been one million times better with a few choice fresh veggies quickly stir-fried over high heat, but my boyfriend is a bodybuilder and therefore obsessed with mass quantities of frozen veggies, and we all know what frozen veggies do to stir fry.

I also like to add roasted meat to my noodle dishes, so I roasted a bunch of seasoned, skin-on chicken leg and thigh in a cast iron skillet, shredded, and topped the stir fried noodles with that.

I could sure go for a Miller High Life...
Wanted to try something a little different so I made this...

Pork shoulder rubbed with brown sugar, salt, pepper and five spice sous vide for 20hrs @ 165 and finished in the oven for 2 hours while basting with soy, worcestershire, honey, butter and sriracha:



Served with sticky rice, lettuce wraps, pickled cucumbers & radishes, fried shallots, ginger & scallion sauce, thai chile + garlic + vinegar sauce and pureed kimchi:


Everything was great but the pork and chile/vinegar sauce were the standouts.

Fam loved the peanut noods so I re-made it last night with vastly improved peanut sauce, but honestly it was still too heavy for me. I live in a fairly remote spot as well and our ability to get basics here can be limiting. I have to try to buy all the vermicelli whenever I see it because it goes so quickly. Not sure what is different about these noods but usually when I hot soak + stir fry them I can get them nice and dry, but these were thicker and honestly more like a rice-based spaghetti.



Used leftover scallions for scrambled eggs.

Eh, they're par-fried, I just oven finished them because I've been out of town for a week and didn't want to gently caress with getting out the deep fryer.

If it will make you happier, we can call them baked potato sticks? Either way, they hit the spot.

Just came back from a week in Prague, and the pizza I had there is better than most of the pizza I’ve had at home in the US.

I’ve been getting pretty lazy the last couple of weeks between traveling and buying a house, but today I decided cook something nice. Have an excess of mushrooms in the kitchen so I decided to stuff some for lunch.

I apologize I did not mean this like a call out or attack. I was literally eating some oven fries and a microwaved hamburger from white castle at the time, ruminating about what my live had become.

We could just call them chips ;)

Minced onion, celery, and red bell pepper. Crushed Ritz crackers, water, salt, pepper, paprika, chopped parsley.

I think provolone works best as a stuffed mushroom topping, but all I had in the fridge was parmigiano reggiano and mozzarella. Also tasted great.

Nice. I'll have to give that a try sometime.

Meanwhile, I'm discovering the concept of overnight oats. Had some for breakfast this morning from one of the Quaker varieties and realized "man I could probably make my own for way cheaper". Wondering what good combinations I can make. Thinking like... chopped apple, pecans, cinnamon sugar, and a little nutmeg for an apple pie flavor?

Yep.

I'm partial to cocoa and honey as I have a massive sweet tooth. Lemon honey and blueberry is also good.
