Seeing chocomouse had grilled salmon, I completely forgot the we had salmon with the original basil pasta and eggplant - the tuna was the night before - life is a blur
Last night I made 30 minute butter chicken meatballs with Alton Browns bak3d brown rice and cherry tomatoes from the garden - all we have for tomatoes right now
I remember when all those stores were unique and really fun to go to, like a kid in a candy store.
What bothers me about KAF these days is that they seem to develop their recipes in order to sell new flours or baking pans. I understand that, but they used to give you alternatives in case you didn’t have the specific flour or Emile Henry Long baker or whatever. There have been lots of recipes that have appealed to me but not enough to spend so much on more pans. I’ve become a minimalist- I finally bought a muffin tin a year and a half ago, because a friend had made some incredible salted caramel cupcakes and I just had to make them - first cupcakes since I don’t know when.
Got it - just thought about the cuisines that use it
We’re having leftovers from the last 2 nights - tuna and chickpea salad 2 nights ago and pasta with homemade pesto - basil from the garden, roasted eggplant from the garden and tonight’s new addition is cherry tomatoes from the garden - that’s about all we have growing right now.
I got it
I saw that. It’s an acquired taste that I never acquired
I got home from work and Will was finishing up making tortillas! We’ve had trouble getting them at the Market, so he figured he try. He found a video on YouTube and they are really good. He said they were so easy he probably will keep making them
I made KAF dark and dangerous mocha ice cream. Made the custard after work yesterday. Brought a large double chocolate cookie from the resort bake shop to crumble since I didn’t have time to make brownies.
We heard fireworks 2 nights in a row. Our company did that to keep the numbers down at the beach club each night instead of the normal 4th mobs. The county cancelled all fireworks
I made peanut noodles using linguine and finished off a bag of Normandy style vegetables from Birdseye that I’d stash3d in the fridge back in March. I chopped up the veggies and sautéed them to cook off the moisture. The were good, but with no protein we ate a lot and don’t have leftovers for tomorrow.
Got it wrong - my dad would be proud I chose his favorite food
Wrong one
I was so exhausted from wrk n Wednesday, that Will cut up a sheet a full pan of veggies including a couple of Japanese eggplants from our garden. Then I baked them and cooked pasta, so hot dinner that night and then we had it as pasta salad last night.
Tonight I made some chicken salad and I brought home a baguette from work - no time for baking right now
Exactly Len!
Hi Mike - I followed Bobby Flay's recommendations in Bobby Flay's burgers more carefully than I ever have. I had about a pound of 93% hamburger (my favorite). Instead of making 4 burgers, I made 3, so they were about 5 ounces each. Bobby's are about 6 ounces. I made them between 1/2-3/4" - he said 3/4. I usually would cook them (I have a gas grill) at medium heat, but this time I started at medium high and then decided to really experiment and turned back to high which is his recommendation. 3 minutes first side, 3 minutes second side and then 1 minute for cheese. I let them rest for 5 minutes. I didn't cut into them and I didn't use my thermometer. Go figure. Simple is usually the best.
Oh, he said to put an indent with your thumb on one side because that helps with the shape. I seasoned them with salt and pepper and then brushed both sides with canola oil - again his recommendation.
I got it.
Ooh - that does look good. Adding to my "to try" list. I really need things like that now. Thinking you could add chicken sausage or as they suggested, olives - yum - might even bring home some pimento cheese from work.
