Sorry to vent a little but...

People keep directing comments/gifts about cooking to my wife and then act defensive, like we're calling them misogynists, when we point out I'm actually the one who cooks in the home...

Like wow I'm sorry you just REALIZED you're sexist but I'm just being honest?

You're just not making it obvious enough. From now on, draw dicks on everything you cook.

It was the darkest roux I have ever seen though.
Still, pretty strange. Just meat, onion, garlic, chilli sauce and worcestershire sauce. E: The olive oil was a new one for me as well.

I just heard NPR's eulogy for Prudhomme, it made me feel sad. I didn't realize that he was the one who came up with the name "holy trinity".

Also, I had no idea that Tony Chachere was a real person, and not just a cartoon mascot.

Nope, upstate New York. I get it so often; I can't imagine being so casually presumptuous about someone else's life... But I guess that's how cultural norms work.

I made muhamarra for the first time tonight. I was going to use jarred peppers but decided that the hassle of roasting and prepping them myself would be worth it, so I bought about 9 Romano peppers and had at it. It's loving delicious. I'm so pleased with it.

A true renaissance man


I made my confit!

After coming out of the bag:


After a flash in some duck fat in a hot pan.


I did the wings and legs, because whythefucknot. I'd heard someone say "duck wing confit" somewhere before so I figured that the worst that would happen is more fat would get into the bag. I did overload my sous vide a bit, and I forgot to take it out before I went to work, so they stayed in a bit longer than they needed (I bailed to work from home as soon as I finished in the classroom). That makes it 14h at 175 F. The talk about bag splitting kept me from going higher this time. I also will probably do less at once next time as well (I did 4 legs and 4 wings, which was right at the limit of what my waterbath can handle).

Next time I'm also going to be more aggressive with my seasoning. I read like 4 recipes which said "Don't overseason!!!!!111" but this could use more. Texture is pretty good. I can do better. The other two legs and wings are going into a cassoulet for Thanksgiving.

quote:

The sausages were Kroger brand (Smith's, Food4Less, Ralph's, King Soopers, etc.). They come two sausages in a pack, with the green labeling, and are sometimes on sale at four packages for five dollars. The sausages (boiled, by the way), were in a sealed, non-Tupperware plastic container. I don't think the make or model of car matters, but where you park the car might make a difference. I was parked in Las Vegas, where it is sometimes kind of warm. The sausages were in the car for four days, give or take. I don't think the weight-loss enzymes kick in until the fourth day. I'd eaten a bit of the sausage the day before, and had no painful cramps, or bloody stools. I think you want to pay attention to three things: texture, smell, and liquid in the container. On the day they first worked their weight-loss magic, they smelled pretty bad, and the texture was horrible. The sausages were split wide open, and felt like mushy sponge. The smell was off-putting, but not a total fire alarm. Like, you could still think, "Eh, I probably shouldn't eat these, but they might not yet be deadly." Finally, stinky meat-juice-colored water had collected in the bottom of the sausage container.

I think the recipe will vary a bit depending on factors such as sausage freshness when purchased, length and degree of cooking, and temperature of storage area. My advice is to wait until the sausages are the texture of an old, soaking-wet dish sponge. That, along with a rancid smell, and the presence of excessive liquid (it will be dripping off the sponge sausage, as well as sitting in the bottom of the container) will give you a pretty good idea of whether or not the sausages are ready to lead you to the Land of the Slim.

Go for it, I've never lived in that world, so I'm amused by the stories.

I just had some amazing smoked chicken wings, great crust from the tasty dry rub. I've been traveling to Charlotte on and off for almost a year now, and there have been SO few places that have impressed me that I'm going to give them a shout out:

Rooster's Wood-Fired Kitchen

Can't wait to back and try the rest of their food.

Welp, I've been denied the transfer to our other hotel, since my chef is going to be out for a month for surgery. So, life sucks but at least I average $20 an hour with my OT, but none of that matters because student loans garnish 30% of my pay now, yay! So I get to try to work more to make rent, and gently caress America, thank liquor.
