maybe score it on one side to keep it from curling as much

Culverin 04-07-2011 04:04 PM

Cool, I'll try scoring it next time.
I've been trying to find these dried ones locally, still no luck.
Has anybody possibly ever come across a source for them?

Baba ghanoush with Pork Confit Sandwich

So with that eggplant dish, I made myself a pretty big batch. After eating 3 meals of it, I was pretty sick of the same thing. I needed to recycle it into something else.Enter a shitty baba ganoush rip off.

Pork Scraps

Made pork belly confit, but the belly came with some bones I had to remove. This is the flap of meat I had to remove to get at the bones.

https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/_j...2002.30.13.jpg
Marinated it overnight with smashed garlic, rosemary and olive oil.

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_j...2001.42.15.jpg
Pan seared it, sliced it into bit sized pieces.
Tossed with some dill and lime juice.



Lamb Gravy + Sandwich

My friend had me over and he made roast lamb. It was in a oven a little too long as traffic sucked as we headed back to his place. It rendered out a lot of fat. Decided to keep it to make gravy with.

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_j...2023.18.17.jpg
Got hungry later in the night. I just showed him how to turn that fat into gravy. Just a simple roux, then poured in that fat with a bit of water to smooth it all out. Couple pinches of salt to taste.

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_j...2023.36.22.jpg
Made a sandwich out of the leftover lamb, gravy and the parmesan I brought over for caeser salad.



Kale Salad
With quinoa, slow roasted tomatoes, and smoked pork jowl I found at a local supermarket. Vinaigrette was lime juice, dijon mustard , a touch of red wine vinegar and extra virgin olive oil.

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_j...2003.25.30.jpg


Ruck Rillettes
Made for a drinking party at a friend's place.

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/_j...2001.27.04.jpg
Prepped duck confit, removed bones.

https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/_j...2001.18.18.jpg
Took some of the meat that got a bit dry, duck skin and thyme and stuck it in the food processor.


https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/_j...2003.01.26.jpg
Added in the confit jelly (aka sludge :p) at the bottom of the pot.

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_j...2003.10.22.jpg
Mashed the meat to bits, mixed in parsley and brandy.


Finished it off with a fat cap
https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_j...2003.18.50.jpg



Spotted Prawn Bisque

I shelled half a dozen spotted prawns to have it as sashimi. I needed to do something with the scraps.

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/_j...2020.52.20.jpg
I took the heads and shells and simmered it in milk. Tossed in a sprig of thyme, and tarragon. Chopped up a green onion and threw it in there as well. A pinch of salt, a dash of Old Bay and a heavy splash of brandy went in as well.

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/_j...2022.37.27.jpg
After a while, the milk curdled into small floaty bits. I removed the heads and shell bits, poured the whole thing in a blender and went to town. It got super smooth and frothy and very flavorful. However, I wasn't able to finish my bowl because of bad salt control. :(


Weekday Lunch

My bro is helping me with renovations and he's my kitchen partner too. It works out well. We made this for lunch.

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/_j...2013.11.29.jpg
Cored out some campari tomatoes. Stuffed it with a hunk of stilton blue cheese, a blade of rosemary and just for kicks (and photo op) a rosemary flower in each. Also, silpat ftw. Tomatoes came off effortlessly.

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/_j...2014.05.14.jpg
Marinated some short ribs overnight, korean style. Seared it off on my cast iron, tossed in a bit of sugar at the last minute so it wouldn't burn.

Gnocchi was tossed in some shallot oil and Old Bay.
Tomatoes had a slightly crispy skin. Broccolli was just blanched.



end of my photo dump.

so jelly!

Actually, I'd love to have a decent oven. I bought mine cause it was cheap, commercial and gas top. But the oven sucks balls, temps are kind of wild and there's no broiler.

Culverin 08-23-2011 01:18 AM

Unit,
Did you do the ramen with a dashi soy broth?
What kind of noodles did you use, I'm still trying to find a decent source of fresh noodles.

I am currently in the middle of building mine. I know having fancy toys does not make you a better cook, but out sure makes it a heck of a lot more fun learning and playing in the kitchen.
