What did I cook this weekend.....

[Staestc]

I KNOW she's not REALLY trying to kill me but I can't help wondering. SWMBO knew I would be working on my thesis all day so she made me 'lunch' before she left for work.

Ya know, it wouldn't be all that bad with a couple of shots of vodka.

bouillabaisse now plated. Clams, mussels, cod, and porgy in the broth.

Lovely!!

Apple stuffed pork loin w/honey dijon

Pretty!

I'm doing the stew recipe from seriouseats.com again. Way to complex a recipe, but then that's what I do. And this is the best stew recipe I have ever cooked and the wife loved it last time!

 

[Remmy]

The usual. Smacked.

It's nice when people show the cooking, and not just the plate.

Restaurant photos shouldn't be allowed.

Link? I love that site, and it's even possible I already have this particular recipe bookmarked, but if not, I definitely want to take a look!

I've been following this thread for years and I don't recall anyone posting pics from restaurants.

What is that thing in the middle? Home made?

Roasted a whole chicken, then took carcass and made broth, then made dumplings to go into the broth. Misread the recipe and made the dumplings too wet, so instead of nice ribbons, I made drop/spoon dumplings. Tasted mighty fine, and the family must have agreed as they ate it all, but it wasn't pretty. Sorry no picture this time.

Star fruit (carambola). Been cooking it lately. So good. I slice (don't skin, it's edible), then I poke the seeds out with a butter knife. Grilled is great. On skewer with sausage chucks is magic.

I marinate in honey before cooking, but maybe not necessary. Some are tart, others sweet.

Will get pics later, but the presentation is epic. I served over salmon steaks last week. Woot!

Thunderdome Vortex, is a steel funnel that works pretty darn good at cooking chicken.

Baked a beef coulibiac, which SWMBO and I enjoyed with a cream of roasted pumpkin soup.

When making the dough, I ran out of all-purpose flour, so had to substitute about 30% with rye flour, which gave the crust a nice rustic taste profile.

Tandori chicken with saag paneer.

Paneer was actually really easy to make - milk + lemon juice + cheese cloth; the final result really beats the store-bought type.

No tandor in my house, so the chicken had to be oven-baked.

MMMMM love me some saag paneer! Yep, paneer is dead simple to make and so good. Looks great!

Today, it was 74*. For the first time since about last September, we broke out the grill and KOTC built a great fire out of oakwood chunks, we threw on some fresh rosemary sprigs and quickly put the rack and the steak on right over the sprigs. They set up a wonderful smoke. Had ovenroasted Brussels sprouts with bacon bits, a nice "everything" salad, and a glass of mighty fine Hans Fahden Vineyards (Calistoga, CA) Cab Sauv with the dinner.

I upped the carrots (the diced ones, not the ones you toss) by a factor of 3 cause they are just great!

Make paneer for saag paneer for my daughter frequently. She just loves it. Only cheese I've made, but I plan to change that
