Grilled for the third time this week tonight. Some kebabs and eventually a polish sausage. Here is a picture I took to taunt those who left to "warmer climates" during Minnesota's brief 60 degree weather.

It worked pretty well but got hot as loving poo poo and the grill gloves I had were not good enough.

That said, I think I'm going to try the same sort of set up this weekend to cook a steak in a pan on a grill. :getin:

(that method owns but it produces too much smoke for an inside kitchen that shares a wall with a neighbor.)

Yeah the skin pretty much came right off.



There wasn't all that much I had to do, really. I seasoned the tongue with some salt and pepper, vacuum packed it with an onion, tomato, and a little lard. Double-bagged it, let it sit in a water bath at 170 for 30 hours (anywhere from 1-2 days is good i think). Chilled it in an ice bath until cooled. Sliced the skin down the middle and peeled it. Trimmed anything that didn't look desirable, and cut it into cubes. Browned it in a pan for a few minutes until crispy.


I've only ever done it sous-vide, but if you don't have all that stuff you can just simmer it with some water/broth, aromatics or whatever you want for like 6 hours.

The snozzberries taste like snozzberries!
I had Mexican ribs tonight. I'm not really sure what they're called (and you can chime in here as to what I made.)

I've made these before but I'm not really sure how to make them... As if that makes sense. Anyway, I salted and peppered them and brought them to room temp like you would do with a steak or whatever else. There is another strip off screen.

We're going to be making grilled asparagus, Mexican short ribs, with some freshly baked pita bread.


Here they are hanging out on my porch with the asparagus I'm also going to grill.


I'm also going to throw some Cherry wood on the coals, because smoke makes every thing taste a lot better. That pan is a 60 year old pan. I'm blanking on the brand but it owns so hard. I cooked veggies in it the last time I grilled.


Here are the ribs on the two zone grill.


And one with the asparagus more cooked.


Here is a picture of the cooked ribs.


To be honest, we got too hungry tasting the ribs and the sun was setting.


Here is a picture of the smoke ring. It seems pretty serious for a thin chunk of meat.


Here are the bones, for whatever reason.


We live on the second and third stories of a very old duplex, which is the reason for the plastic plates. Anyway, this with a quarter bag of Cherry wood chips really loving owned. Even the pita tasted better.

wanted some gyoza with a cheese filling, so I grated two hard cheeses and a mozzarella, added some fresh ginger, spring onions and black pepper



after the gyoza where made and dumped into the fridge for later use, lots of filling was left (as always),
so I opened a pack of tortilla wraps, coated them with lao gan ma chili crisp aka angry lady sauce and added the leftover cheesemixture





leftovers are great!

With a one person household the largest part of the week, I found out too much is thrown away generally, so I try to make a point out of using as much as I can. It's not even that hard, really....the gyoza were nice, but not better than the leftover wraps above ;-)

anyway, today I ate some of the gyoza:

again, the cheesemixture for the filling: two grated hard cheeses and a grated mozzarella, added some fresh ginger, spring onions and black pepper

So tonight's dinner was Imam Baylidi, a Turkish stewed aubergine dish.

It's he first time I've made it and it could have been a bit better. Despite having three cloves of garlic in it, it is a little bit bland. It's also a bit watery, but that's easil overcome. Might shove some chilies in it next time round. Anyway, here are the pics.

If you don't mind, could you take up a picture or two and an impression of your results? I can't recall ever seeing a Jackfruit where I live, although I'm sure it'd be relatively easy to find nearby. It seems very interesting.

Also, :whatup: Food Wishes bro. Chef John for life. :madmax::respek::black101:

I followed the recipe to the letter, aside from using another tsp. of white sugar (no brown). I am not a professional.
Recipe: http://www.moreveganblog.com/2014/06/28/bbq-pulled-jackfruit/
The brand was Aroy-D Green Jackfruit in brine.

- There is a lot of waste; maybe 40-50% by volume is core you're supposed to remove. Still enough for four kaisers, easy
- Has the look of pulled chicken/pork
- Definitely does not not have the texture of pork (at least as I've cooked it); it's closer to soft artichoke heart
- While the recipe says to cover and simmer, the texture might be better served by not lowering the temp and letting it boil off faster (pretty sure this step is only for infusing the spices/broth). It separates easily before you even cook it
- Do not pre-heat the baking pan too (normally I never do this :effort: I don't know why I did tonight)
- Better in a bun than by itself; pickles/coleslaw would help even more
- Any seeds you miss have the texture of roast garlic, more or less
- Mine didn't really crisp up, even where the sugars browned
- Might be interesting on top of fries/hashbrowns
- The BBQ sauce I used was just ~140mL of store-bought, Memphis-style tomato base, with strong molasses and sugar (I thinned with an ounce of tequila). Might be better with a Carolina style sauce.
- I have no idea how to use my phone's camera
- I prefer Chimay Priemiere with my "BBQ" :airquote:, but go with what you like :v:

Decided to try cast-iron tortilla pizza because I can't go a day without hearing about it (and someone made it in this thread I think last page and it looked amazing).

    Ingredients used for the first pizza:
  • Basil based tomato sauce with some thyme thrown in
  • Basil
  • Rough chopped Garlic
  • Green Onion
  • Chopped Jalapenos
  • Mozza
  • Parmesan
  • Mild Prosciutto
  • Parsley
  • 2 eggs
  • Olive Oil

Toppings by TCZPhotography, on Flickr

Savory by TCZPhotography, on Flickr

Turned out pretty well although I think I'd go with fewer toppings just as it was difficult to get it cooked properly without overcooking the egg and cheese.

Next pizza was more western.

    Ingredients for 2nd pizza
  • Honey Ham
  • Pineapple
  • White Mushroom
  • Mozza
  • Parmesan

HP by TCZPhotography, on Flickr

Overall it went pretty good and it was very filling. I'd probably go with less toppings as it wasn't as firm as others I've seen but I'm too accustomed to western style pizza to really fully appreciate something like Pizza Margherita.

You can also use fenugreek to get maple flavor, interestingly. They use it frequently in the production of artificial maple syrup.

It's also why the West Side of Manhattan sometimes smells weirdly of maple syrup. Depends on how the wind is blowing in from Jersey, there's a factory that roasts fenugreek just across the river.

No way, that looks right.

I'm moving next week otherwise I would have done corned beef & cabbage as well- the leftovers are always great.

Instead I just got hammered and forgot to eat. To make up for it, tonight- a nice ribeye, some brussels sprouts and a baked potato. Simple, no leftovers.

Just butter from grass-fed cows, basically. That's unfortunately kinda a rare thing in most American supermarkets.
It has a higher butterfat content, and a rich yellow color.
