What did I cook this weekend.....

[Gavin C]

Baked brownies and then chocolate chip cookies with my daughter Saturday.

Then, dinner was yellowfin tuna (caught by my neighbor), cooked sous vide then seared. Accompanied by caprese salad on romaine hearts, and pasta shells w/ white cheddar sauce.

Food looks and sounds great.

You and your little one both have the same mischievous grin.

Looks delicious. Stout and pork. Sounds incredible. Going to have to make tostones one of these days. I usually just deep fry plantains when they are still firm. Come out like chips (French Fries) from fresh new potatoes. But tostones look great.

Yeah, you just cut them thicker, fry for a minute on both sides, smash and refry.

Basically like a tasteless fritter or fry-type thing.

Really simple but a great starchy-type item to throw on the plate. I can never find the green ones here, but even the yellow ones work well with no real sweetness.

Duck-fat fried tostones. (Patent pending y'all hear)

Uh oh. Just wait until she discovers beer like I did!

 

[Melana]

Butternut squash soup and parmesan garlic toast.

I too made BS Soup this weekend. We finished a huge pot in just a few hours. It was so thick I didn't need to add any cream.

 

[TheCADJockey]

I made an everything bagel. In the toaster, on lowest settings, then a second time on medium dark. Vegetable cream cheese spread. Real fancy stuff. I'll get pics next time.

Not much cooking involved but haggis, neeps and tatties is a Burns' night staple in our house. Simple but delicious. View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1453754797.921100.jpg

Haggis is one of those things that most people don't want to know how it's made- fortunately my girls found out how tasty it was before learning that and now don't care!

Make sure you post about it in the thread we don't talk about.

You got it pal.

 

[ChefRex]

Sous vide chicken cordon bleu, second time doing this and it works quite well, no trying to seal it well enough to prevent the cheese from oozing , wrap it up and stick it in the bag.added a little evvo prior to sealing to help prevent lines from the bag.
Not pretty out of the bag,

[beergolf]

That looks sooooo good.

Red beans and rice for me... Quick version using canned beans. Not quite as good as the long cooked version but very tasty. About another 1/2 hour to dinner.

 

[finsfan]

Damn that looks good chef!

 

[ChefRex]

Oh is was! I love sous vide, so many thing I want to do with it. The chicken was very moist, breasts sux when they're dry

That is why I rarely eat chicken breasts.

OK so now I want a sous vide set up even more..

Man that first picture brings back nightmares. One Grandma would serve us boiled chicken with a side salad of literally just lettuce and mayo as dressing. Ugh.

Gonna toss a top round roast into the sous vide on Thursday morning for dinner on Friday night...

 

[mattmmille]

Got some leftover Italian sausage, made some pizza dough (currently proofing), planning on adding mozzarella, and rolling it up for a stromboli. Sauce on the side and a salad. Pictures later.

 

[mattmmille]

It happened! Proof:

I did a four pound roast for 30 hours and the texture was just getting a little bit off, not bad but different, I will probably try a couple hours shorter next time.

 

[Remmy]

Homemade rice and beans, roasted split chicken breast and tostones.

That brings back nightmares for me too lol when I working out hardcore with my ex boss, he would have me eat chicken boiled in milk. I still wake up screaming in terror.
