Saw some monster shrimp so had to use them for something.



Shrimp and cheese grits. Used some leftover tomatillos in the sauce which gave some nice acidity to the sauce without adding lemon juice.

That is indeed a cuban.

I followed the recipe from Andrew Rea - Binging With Babish - here: https://www.bingingwithbabish.com/recipe/2017/3/28/cubanos-inspired-by-chef

Edit: and found this authentic-looking bread recipe: https://icuban.com/food/pan_cubano2.html

I grilled a spatchcocked chicken after rubbing with oil, parsley, and garlic.



Then I served it with oven roasted potatoes and a simple salad.



It was goddamn delicious. And I made chicken stock with the scraps.

Nice crust on the roasted potatoes, how did you get them browned like that?

Chicken looks great too.

Thanks! I used the technique, if not the whole actual recipe, from the Food Lab. Essentially, par-boil in water with baking soda and salt, drain and add oil that's been infused with garlic and rosemary, roast at a high temp (450) and flip once. This time I used a glass roasting pan instead of metal, which gave a slightly different surface, not quite as crisp. Still really good.

I use Alton's recipe with a slight variation (I like to add a little white wine with the chicken stock). I also messed up and forgot to put the egg yolk in the mash, so I just brushed the top with it instead.

Where do you source your shepherd from and how much does it cost?

Wales or New Zealand. Generally caught wild, hunting license fee is pretty low.

Edit:

Tonight I made some beef tenderloin (sous vide, finished on grill) with Kenji's roast potatoes, cognac cream sauce, and broccoli. I missed out on the last two weekends due to illness so gently caress it, went posh. Goddamn licked my plate clean.

What I like to do is parcook the pepperoni to get the grease under control. Just lay out a single layer on a couple paper towels on a plate, and microwave for like 5-10 seconds at a time just until a bunch of the oil gets ejected, then apply to pizza as normal.

Definitely trying this trick next time.

I had a little Italian dinner party last night and made stuff. Excuse the cell phone photos.



Antipasti: two types of crostini. Burrata and prosciutto on one, mashed cannelini beans with roasted garlic and capers topped with an amazing tuna and parmesan on the other.



Pasta: squid ink spaghetti with charred corn and a garlic cream sauce and castelmagno cheese



Carne: brined and grilled pork chops with grilled peaches and sauteed garlicky broccoli rabe (and some of the corn leftover from the pasta)



Dolci: olive oil cake with freshly made meyer lemon ice cream and macerated strawberries.

Not pictured: mascarpone thumbprint and amaretti cookies.

Everything was crazy delicious.

Made some ramen for dinner. Started the noodles (https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2020/04/easy-ramen-noodles.html) last night, then tonight made a soup base from turkey stock made with thanksgiving's bones, dashi, miso, etc. Cooked some pork belly sous vide then crisped and glazed it in the bag juice, agave and soy sauce. Also started some soy eggs the other day for tonight. Had some mushrooms that needed to be used so sauteed them with some onion and seasoned with togarashi. Not exactly authentic, but tasted great.





Bakedbaking soda is kind of a pain in the dick and it smells weird, but the noodles had that classic ramen bite to them so I guess I can't argue with the results of making your own caustic powders at home.

That looks insanely amazing.

Did not have the malt powder in that first batch. I ordered some and will try round two with everything else the exact same to see if I can get the proper proof to hoagie diameter.

Heh, I stumbled onto the exact same recipe (having not heard of Chlebowksi before), ordered the malt powder, and baked them a few days ago. Hoagies for lunch three days in a row - I'm not complaining!

As someone who doesn't like fish, it's one of the few fish dishes I do like. Those fake anchovies (what they're called here) just melt away into the casserole and leave a nice taste.

I've been making this with the "anchovies" you can find in the US for years, but this last Christmas I managed to get a couple of tins of the real stuff (Grebbestads ansjovis) and while not a HUGE difference, it definitely got "fishier" than what I've been used to recently. I don't really know which one I prefer, I think the US anchovies in a can are saltier and end up tasting less fishy, but I really enjoyed the latest version too.

gently caress, it was spicier than most things I've eaten in the last decade so I don't think adding more spice will be the route I take next time. But yes, it would look nicer, that's for sure.
