    Saturday's Dinner 11/11 What's Sup?

    Hi gang, dinner Nov 11th, 2017 I decided to have salmon and broiled asparagus. I intended to prepare a Caesar salad, had all the ingredients, but my appetite usurped. I marinated 8 oz. of salmon in Yoshida's sauce and broiled it. The idea is to broil it skin side up first, while you are...

    What's for Dinner, Sunday, 5/21?

    The irony! Running out of leftovers! Alas, my dinner tomorrow night. 3-day old supermarket broiled chicken making a reprise as chicken tacos! :)

    What's for Dinner, Sunday, 5/21?

    been some time since I visited CD... Umami, yo' mama! :smile: I got genuine umami in a bottle. But first... I haven't visited CD for a few weeks, I'm doing very well, I got myself on a diet (after the diet that lost me 40#) and resumed my gym workouts. I swear I am bouncing off the (vaulted)...

    Trader Joe Products That You Didn't Care For

    OMG thank you so much Kayelle, I was SRSLY considering buying this very product last week, but something seemed "off" to me. It was that the quantity of protein (seafood) didn't seem right to me (compared to the rest of the ingredients), even at the weight it seemed intended for TWO people, but...

    Friday 4/28/2017 What's on the menu?

    Longwind, that ABSOLUTELY without a doubt. Gas can never give as hot a flame as charcoal/wood, and high heat is what you want to cook a steak. You want to put a hella seer on the outside, then the middle to your taste. I get passable results with a cast iron pan. Same thing, puts high heat...

    Friday 4/28/2017 What's on the menu?

    All I can say is the package was labeled as "boneless rib eye" but if somebody handed me the unpackaged meat I would have told them it's a 9 oz. filet mignon. Whatever, it was good. Might have used a bit more heat but I believe that less is better than more when it comes to steaks. And I had...

    Friday 4/28/2017 What's on the menu?

    I want to start my post with more questions than answers. It will make an interesting topic at least for me, maybe you, and I have some product reviews to spike my post: First my menu: 1.) Sous vide "open nature grass fed beef rib eye steak boneless." Last day discount (the very best...

    Dinner 4-17-2017 ~ Monday, Monday...

    I'm in an uncharacteristically good cooking mood, thawed some shrimp yesterday so I decided to have shrimp panang curry. No real recipe, sauteed the shrimp and pushed to edge of wok, mixed some coconut cream (Savoy brand - Thailand) and stirred in Mae Ploy (good Thai brand!) panang paste, crab...

    ISO braised chicken with mushrooms & sauce recipe ideas

    Well I need other ingrediments so no prob to grab a few shallots too. The real deal breaker is I have no red wine, so as long as I'm at the market might as well grab a few shallots. A lot of the time I get hungry and I just open my fridge and pantry and ask myself, "What dinners do I see here?"...

    Worms in Rice

    Except for that one instance of the bugs in the sealed rice package I have never had an instance of infestation that couldn't be blamed on my previous habit of keeping my flour in the original paper package and storing it below the counter. These days the freshly purchased flour goes directly...

    ISO braised chicken with mushrooms & sauce recipe ideas

    Thanks JC! I don't have all the ingrediments so I'll buy some shallots and whatever else it takes. I'll update the topic when I have cooked the recipe myself.

    Worms in Rice

    I keep my flour in hermetically sealed canisters. I had a few problems with creatures getting in my flour and that's why I went hermetic. Also I think it is a good idea to store flour in above the counter cabinets, away from the floor, just on general principles.
