When you're craving Frito pie, but your girlfriend wants a fancy dinner.



Made another batch of venison chili, and still had Fritos lying around, so deconstructed Frito pie it is! I had a normal bowl after this.

Love it.

I know ;) just was flabbergasted at how glorious your one looked.

you ought to grow radishes, too. trust me, you'll never taste anything quite like fresh radishes. they're a lot less tangy / spicy than store bought, and are surprisingly sweet. when I grew my first, I was really shocked at just how sweet they could be, seeing as the only radishes I'd ever had were always tangy like garlic. be thankful you can grow stuff, I'm stuck in an apartment with no garden, and I wish I could grow my own veggies. would be such a fun summer project. I looked into getting an allotment, but there's a 3 year waiting list and I'll be done with my degree by then and somewhere else. ridiculous.

Weirdly, we just harvested our first radish crop from our planter box, very first harvest ever, and yeah they're incredible. Make sure you cook the greens with a little oil and garlic, too.

Rehydrated dried shitake, imitation crab, avocado maki



Turns out sushi rice isn't too hard to make. This is the fourth roll attempt; my wife and I, even having experience in doing exactly that (in a sushi class long ago), STILL put too much rice on the three before this one. Still probably a touch too much, but it was the best of the lot.

Shitake + avocado is my wife's absolute favorite roll, mostly due to this vegan sushi place in Berkeley that is divine.

Shakshouka! I've never even had shakshouka before, but I think I'm going to be making this all the time now. Tasted pretty delicious just using store brand crushed tomatoes, though I saw San Marzanos recommended in a couple of recipes. Really this is just further convincing me to grow my own tomatoes.

Snow day, holiday weekend, bolognese.

After cooking for 2 hours


After reducing


After adding a glug or three of cream. To read more about the Mary Berry add-cream-to-spag-bol controversy, see this article in the telegraph: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/food-and-drink/news/mary-berry-right-putting-white-wine-cream-in-bolognese/


Final bowl. Rigatoni and 3-color rotini were chosen by the most argumentative of almost-4-year-olds. Wine was some random 8-10 dollar cab I got for cooking bolognese and other recipes calling for a red.

lol I suppose I should have googled the dish before commenting. A Sichuan dish is literally "spicy chicken" there'd be a shitload of dried Sichuan chilis would be involved. I dont live in a part of the us where proper sichuan food is easily available (at least to my knowledge, but if someone has a recommendation in boston, lemme know! I can get to Boston easy enough and should go there more, especially for dinner!) Looks delicious!

Sichuan Gourmet on route 9 in Framingham is our usual go-to, if you really are in the greater boston area (well, metro west).

Yes. Made in the instant pot, as it happens, but that's mostly irrelevant to the dish. Peas get stirred in at the end, they aren't cooked with the meat and spices.
