Made a loaf of rye and whole packer brisket worth of pastrami. Brisket came from a friend's family who raise charolais cattle. A little too lean, but still tasty.

Can you elaborate on the method, that looks delicious
Oh, yeah, no prob.
It's Flour 1000 g, warm (32°/90°) Water 700 g, fine Sea salt 20 g and "a bare quarter teaspoon yeast."

I used King Arthur unbleached bread flour. You start the yeast with 3-4 tablespoons of the warm water and set aside. Add the rest of the water to the flour in a large bowl and give it a few turns with your hand to combine. Cover and let rest for 20-30 min to allow for autolysis. Sprinkle the salt over the top of the flour and add the yeast. Mix by hand to combine, the book describes "pinching and folding" the dough with a wetted hand. cover and let rise for 12 hours. Should triple in size. Mine had great big huge bubbles in it and smelled amazing. Put the dough onto a floured surface and fold it over 2-3 times. cut it into 5 segments and form them into balls. Put on floured sheet and put in fridge for 6 hours (I froze 3 for future meals.)

Cooking instructions were for a conventional oven: Pre-heat oven to as close to 600°f as possible, placing pizza stone on rack about 8" below broiler. Allow to heat for 30 min after it reaches temperature. Take dough ball and punch it down in the middle, and stretch out into a pizza crust. (Metroid shape optional.). I made my own sauce from San Marzano tomatoes, olive oil and garlic. Mozzarella and parm cheese. Boar's Head pepperoni. Fresh basil. About 5 cloves of chopped garlic. When you're ready, superheat the stone by putting the broiler on high for 5 min, then back to bake and put the pie in. Bake for 5 min then switch to broiler for 2 min and keep an eye on it.

The next one I'm going to bake a little longer to get a crunchier crust. That one was good, just not crunchy how I like.

NUMBER 1 QUEENSLAND SUPPORTER
MAROONS 2023 STATE OF ORIGIN CHAMPIONS FOR LIFE



I know it doesn't look impressive (nor is it complicated or difficult), but dinner tonight made me feel super proud. Made everything from scratch, had four different foods cooking separately simultaneously (in the oven, the stovetop, the bbq and a pan on the bbq side burner), and had to overcome challenges on the fly (the steaks were all cooked to specific, different, requests, and all hosed up their cooking times because our bbq is terrible, so I had to switch which was which around and play it by ear). Everything came out delicious and was well complimented (and everyone had seconds), and I feel very satisfied with my glass of wine, listening to the dishwasher.

It's scotch fillet steaks cooked on the barbecue, with a mushroom cream sauce. The sides are potato au gratin and garlic butter beans.







E: I was most happy that I got the steaks cooked perfectly. Mine was medium-rare, the others were medium and medium-well. 70% of the way through the cooking process I realised none were going to get close to the right temperatures, but they were in the right ballpark to switch around and still get the right results.

Hell yeah. That looks good.

I think it's a decent level of skill all on its own to be able to cook several dishes at once to the right degree and have them all on the plate at proper serving temp at the same time in a normal home kitchen setup.

Fancy dinner for Game of Thrones, which was probably better than the episode itself.

Smoked standing rib roast with horseradish cream, homemade tasso ham and parmesan escalopped potatoes, grilled lemon asparagus.



Served with a nice beaujolais. The beef was as good as you would expect. The potatoes were surprisingly the star. Absolutely loving killer. Gonna make those again. Glad I smoked some tasso last week.




Dragon egg cakes! Coconut cake with kiwi lime mousse, peanut butter cake with peanut butter mousse and a strawberry jam layer, dark chocolate espresso cake with dark chocolate mousse and 90% dark chocolate ganache glaze.

First time trying to make a cake that looks like something else, and took me a whole drat day, but super happy with how they turned out.

For reference:


Mine







Kiwi mousse was a liiiitttlllleeee soft and the top layer of cake slid ad it got too round. Should have trimmed the top layer of PB cake down a bit.




Coconut kiwi lime cake was great. PBJ cake was good, but seriously you only need like 3 bites. It is overwhelming. Chocolate cake was KILLER. So dark, barely sweet, for serious chocolate addicts.

:unsmith: Aww thanks yall. I always feel like I am barely doing this justice compared to so much awesome stuff in here. Didn't expect this to get much of a reaction!


Only real takeaways I had from it were to not put in the Gorgonzola into the bechamel until just nearly at the end. Likewise, I just sauteed up the onion and garlic (with a little black pepper and thyme) and only tossed it in along with the gnocchi and stirred. When I tried making this before I put in the cheese earlier on like I was making a mornay and it didn't stay as nice of consistency and broke a bit.

Also, if you have a smoker, smoked sweet italian sausage is super nice. I just throw mine in at 225F with some pecan wood for around 1h. Makes a nice improvement to my cheap grocery store made sausages. We've been throwing it on salads or having one for lunch with roasted summer squash.

I made chicken marsala tonight. I got a hankering browsing a local grocer's recipes page:
https://www.dorothylane.com/recipes/chicken-marsala/

I think I got pretty close! It was really good. I've never used demi glace before, so that was a fun new thing. I think I'd like to make and freeze a big batch of my own, because a packaged tablespoon-sized glob of the stuff was almost five bucks. Worth it, though.

I went heavy on da sos.

Looks great! Demi isnt hard, but it is time consuming. You gotta make a good beef stock and reduce the hell out of it. The beef stock will take about 9 hours start to finish. On the bright side, since it rolls so long, you dont cut the mire poix much at all...maybe quarter the onion and halve the celery and carrots. Roast the veggies with the bones.

This is probably cheaper ounce per ounce than making your own, and keeps basically forever in the fridge. It takes a LOT of meat to reduce down to not very much demiglace. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0010OQQ2Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_Kvk6CbZV4ES04

For pan sauce stuff you can just use boxed low sodium stock and cook it down a lot after you deglaze the pan. Wait until it’s reduced to season. Demiglace does definitely take it up to the next level though.
