^^^^^Looking forward to seeing the results! Just made some pasta with tapenade and anchovies. It was probably some of the best pasta I've ever had, and at the same time, the simplest. Pasta. Like pizza, don't overthink the toppings.

The keeping of pants on requires one to be wearing pants from the start. (I'm not wearing pants. Today. Yet.)

Just had my first shift ever at a restaurant, I handled drinks and coffee, and it was VERY good weather today, so it was busy. My feet hurt. And my arm. I can't decide whether to get drunk or lie down. Maybe I'll do both. Can't decide in the order to do it in then.

So I had the most authentic french dining experience last night, outside of France. My french-o-phile chef friend was on his way to work one morning, and came past a small shop labeled "French Pastry Shop" (In Danish). He shakes his head, thinks "Yeah right, "French" here in Copenhagen." So he goes in, and does the test, orders a cup of coffee and a croissant. He ends up sitting and talking to the owner of the place a while. Dah-VEED (David), is a french educated pâtissière from the champagne district, who opened his own pastry shop in Copenhagen. He can barely speak Danish, which is part of the charm. The place is pretty popular, and some time ago he started doing private dinners for his friends once a month at the place. Once turned to twice, and such, until it was every Tuesday, and opened to the public. It's at a fixed time, and there are only 30 seats or so total. So with everyone seated, he rings the bell, and does a speech where he's happy we're here, and what the dinner consists of, minutely detailing everything that will arrive on our plate that evening. There is no way I could begin to do his descriptions justice, complete with him stumbling through the danish language, haphazardly replacing words in french, with people shouting out translations for him. First course: A duet of tartars, smoked salmon and fresh salmon with cream. Toasted crouton with black olive tapernade, topped with roasted goats cheese, on a small bed of mixed salad. Wine, a 2009 Chablis. As David described it, it's not a Chablis. It's a real Chablis. Main course: Pan-seared Quail, flambeed in armagnac, served with a sweet grape sauce. Fresh spring cabbage, summer carrots, broken potatoes, and a small green salad with a vinaigrette. Desert: Four different Opera style cakes, so different it's crazy. I'm leaving out so much detail, I really can't remember it all. All the wine didn't exactly help. The price was very low, 60$ for all 3 courses, with an aperitif, white wine for the first course, red for the main, and for the desert: A small brandy glass of champagne liquor, a glass of champagne, and a cup of coffee. Of course we ended up paying almost double that, because we ordered so much extra wine. We actually emptied his stores. I think he's taking it as a challenge, and he'll be prepared next time we're there. The whole atmosphere was as bistro-like as it could get as well. The volume in the place was deafening, people were talking loudly, half-shouting, laughing, drinking, glasses clinking. Life is good. He's closing up over the summer for rebuilding, but he's opening up again late august/mid september. Can't wait to come back. He'll reserve the whole place for a group if we're over 15 people, and just me and the guys we can probably gather around that. If any DK goons wanna join in, I could arrange a spot.

That pressure cooked duck sounds like something you should try experimenting with a bit. I don't have a pressure cooker yet, but would definitely be something I'd want to try when I got one.

ohgod You just know a recipe is good when it has "surprise" in the title, and especially so if it's made with mostly canned foods.

therattle posted:I am working with some producers in Aarhus. They seem to like it. They do say that there is an unusually high percentage of freaks and weirdos there - now I know why. I was born in Aarhus, this might explain a few things. I'm considdering buying the "On Food and Cooking" book by Harold McGee because I've read a bit of it in PDF and I like what I've read so far. But I noticed the book is actually pretty old, originally published in 1984. Is there something else I should get instead/also which is newer and more modern?

Dane posted:It's been updated several times, unless you're buying the 1st ed you should be fine. Thanks! I wasn't expecting it to be this expensive though. I've also found what looks to be two different editions. This seems to be the original: http://www.amazon.co.uk/On-Food-And-Cooking-Science/dp/0684800012/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1342528444&sr=8-3 But I can't figure out if this is the same thing or nor: http://www.amazon.co.uk/McGee-Food-Cooking-Encyclopedia-Kitchen/dp/0340831499/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1342528444&sr=8-1 The second one being a lot cheaper.

Once the tree is fully grown and starts bearing plums all year round from the tropic conditions in your stomach, the plums will start to ferment in your belly, and you will be perpetually drunk. What have you done.

This may seem stupid, but I'm looking for one of you kind American gentlegoons who might be interested in shipping me some Twinkies. To Denmark. I can't find them anywhere here in Denmark. I've got this thing for a girl, and we have this stupid internal joke about Twinkies, so I know it'd blow her mind if I got her some for Christmas. I wanna blow her mind with Twinkies.
