Spot Prawn Experiment Night: https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-v...otprawns-9.jpg First Course: Simply boiled. Lo family recipe for the vinaigrette. Raw shallots, raw garlic, lemon, japanese rice vinegar, mirin, soy and garlic chili paste and a touch of korean sesame oil. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-V...tprawns-14.jpg Second Course: Agedashi Tofu Just giving the peeps a chance to sort their stomachs out until it starts getting real. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-T...tprawns-11.jpg Third Course: Sashimi. Shredded daikon and shiso from my garden. Sometimes, simple is best. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-M...tprawns-20.jpg Fourth Course: 椒鹽 Fried Heads Traditional Chinese recipe with Szechuan peppercorns, jalapenos and garlic. Toasted and ground the Szechuan peppercorns myself. Can't let those heads go to waste. Fifth Course: Spot Prawn Bisque (not pictured) Just imagine a less red lobster bisque. It tasted ok, but looks-wise, it's nothing special. Just some soup to gulp down. https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-N...otprawns-7.jpg https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-Y...tprawns-22.jpg Sixth Course: Spot Prawn Ceviche Featuring random stuff from the garden.Chervil, golden lemon thyme, rosemary flowers, so micro fennel and cilantro and chive flowers. Also used radish, Japanese nori paste, and some roasted garlic olive oil I made. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-l...512_000743.jpg Seventh Course: Spot Prawn Tagliatelle Scratch made the tagliatelle. Spot prawns cooked with garlic and marsanne. Tossed it all with fresh tomatoes and basil. Hooray for derping around. :toot: |
Spectacular as always. I wrote down a good few thoughts for next weekend. I left it in my pants at work though. I'll send you some ideas tomorrow. |
a man needs to eat dinner... https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-i...513_010635.jpg Tagliatelle marinara with and blade steak (Pasta and marinara from scratch) Nothing wrong with dried pasta, but making your own pasta sauce is sooooo much better than from a jar. I just used canned tomatoes, garlic, shallots basil and some olive oil. Blade steak, cheap cut of meat that's got good marbling and tender as long as you're willing to trim off a bit of silver skin. Pan-seared, salt and pepper and rested. Simple is good. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-n...515_163518.jpg Mushroom ragout, a poached egg, 24 hour slow roasted cherry tomatoes on the vine over creamy polenta Mushrooms were caramelized with with garlic, shallots and thyme. White wine and cream to finish. Some Shaved parmigiano-regiano. Stole the concept from Working Class Foodies. |

No problem. I just wanted to use the word "virility". The last one isn't one of mine. Saw that you credited me on FB for it. |

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-H...o/DSC_8484.JPG Saganaki It's a Greek cheese. A fellow RS member taught me this little recipe. Egged, dredged in flour, fried a little on both sides. I hit with a bit of white wine (don't have ouzo or pernod handy) and lemon juice. Dried oregano from Greece. https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-Q...o/DSC_8505.JPG Kalamari I seem to make this fairly often for my friends. Somewhat labor intensive, but it's pretty cheap to make. This was about $2.50 worth of squid. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-L...o/DSC_8500.JPG And the Tzaziki to go with it... I wanted to re-attempt a sandwich I made quite a while back. Duck Club House https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-O...o/DSC_8489.JPG Bacon fat, Roasted garlic, and duck fat mayo. https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-3...o/DSC_8490.JPG Got lazy, didn't want to wait to roast the skin, so I just deep fried it. https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-q...512-MOTION.gif Drizzling some winter honey on the duck breast https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-P...o/DSC_8524.JPG Duck Club House Pan seared duck breast Double smoked bacon Duck crackling Tomato Iceberg lettuce Bacon fat, roasted garlic and duck fat mayo (a very generous amount) Some kinda meh-bread from Safeway (I hate their bakery), but toasted with bone marrow tallow. <--- Hooray for keeping random fats lying around the house. Hoisin sauce. https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-f...523_015105.jpg Almost Vegetable Soup Just using up whatever scraps I had in the fridge. Cabbage, tomato, onion, shallots, celery, yukon gold potatoes, caramelized mushrooms, a jalapeno and good amount of ginger. I thought it would need extra flavor depth and used chicken stock, but apparently, totally not needed. Finished with some roasted garlic olive oil and parsley from the garden. |
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-j...21113-edit.jpg Pan seared chicken breast with mushrooms and white wine Roasted tomatoes and a bit of salad https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-A...1+19.54.13.jpg I'll see your kale chips and raise you Deep Fried Kale.

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-9...605_200959.jpg Chawanmushi I made a couple different batches. Working on different fillings. The crispness of romaine works surprisingly well. https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-5...605_222258.jpg :devil: https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-C...605_202103.jpg An assortment of house made sausages from International Sausage House.

Why didn't you post the pics from the squid and duck and pork sandwich night? |
They are in a different thread. |
Maybe I should just ask to get them merged? Can a mod do that? |
