What did you eat Saturday, August 31, 2024?

My favorite steak dinner (from Steve's Sizzling Steak) - NY strip, steak fries, and mushrooms. The side salad with blue cheese dressing is not in the picture.

A Blueberry bagel with peanut butter. Had a meal-sized salad for lunch, so I didn't want much.

Sous vide @130F for about 4 hours then seared in cast iron. We split this.

I had another piece of my lunch steak, a couple fries, and a couple mushrooms for dinner. I still have a small piece of steak left, maybe steak and egg for breakfast.

@msmofet is Steve's a take-out joint?

It's a bar and grill, and you can only get take-out before they get busy. So basically around 2pm - 4pm.

Steve's Sizzling Steaks

We have a "Farm to Table" Farm not far from us and they've started to incorporate other things than just produce.
In the freezer case, along with their own ranch raised meats (beef, pork, chicken and turkey) I spied two sizes of Chicken Pot Pie - I went small.
Very tasty!
DH's pictured Chopped Salad is all their produce, and I gotta say, even though it is spendier than the mega-mart, MAN, it's much better in taste and quality!

I seared some pork steaks in a CI skillet then set them aside and made some onion gravy and mashed potatoes. Then the pork went back into the gravy to finish cooking. Lots of gravy for the mashed potatoes. YUM

I had planned on waiting a couple of days to have the rest of the frikadeller. But, I started craving them, so I had five of the seven leftover frikadeller tonight. I will probably have the other two on a sandwich. I nuked a potato and scooped the potato flesh onto my plate along with sour cream and chives. I sautéed some spinach in bacon fat. I also had pickled beets and cucumber salad.

Natto w/mustard and soy sauce, veggie brown basmati rice, corn on the cob, brownie, watermelon.

Again, everyone's dinners sound and look very tasty.
Again, my wine was also very tasty.
Had some freezer hors d'oeuvre of calamari rings and tentacles. Hard to get the exact point to take out of oven, one minute they're perfect, the next second, too crispy!

Mini pizza tonight. Just a cheese pizza with homegrown basil. No meat.

My next door neighbour, an old Italian friend delivered some freshly laid eggs this morning from his friend’s chook-coop.
I used some to make egg pasta and OMG - they were the best!!

 

[msmofet]

I got some fresh eggs recently. They were full of blood drops. Couldn't eat them. I used to love fresh just laid eggs.

The yolks were such a vivid yellow/orange. The egg pasta was delicious, I made a Nonna sized batch of this meal.
We have a guest who eats like it’s his last meal!

They are not really blood drops. They are pieces of tissue that break away while the egg passes along the 'corridor'. Were there just one per egg or many per egg? Many, many pieces of tissue suggests that perhaps the chicke is rather elderly or very young.
I once had a chicken who laid eggs with one drop of tissue almost every time. Came to recognize her egg and would keep them for myself, rather than sell them. You don't see/notice them once cooked and especially if scrambled. Or use them for baking.
However, tons of specks in one egg is not good and I would toss them for sure.
Here endeth lesson #104 in chicken eggs.
and a quick lesson #105 - always crack fresh farm eggs into a separate bowl, one at a time - before adding into the rest of the ingredients, one at a time.
