Shelby, I can't remember the last time I had frog legs. Looks delicious. Pasta for dinner. With grilled garlic bread. Bread baked yesterday.

TicTac, I do. I have the recipe on my blog. You can find it HERE. The only thing I change with this recipe is the hydration. Yesterday's pizza dough was at 76%. And I also made two loaves of bread from the same batch. Posted on the Bread Thread on Pastry and Baking Forum.

Handmixed a batch of dough on Friday morning and it went directly into the fridge. Used some of the dough to make two pizzas Saturday night and the remaining became a couple of rounds. Baked early this morning in Dutch Ovens. Sliced tonight.

I posted the pizza that we had for dinner last night to the Dinner thread. The dough was just hand pulled to stretch. With rests in between.

Duvel, the pizza is topped with little cubes of potatoes. I fried them last night, but the potatoes can also be roasted in the oven. When they come of out the fryer, I season them with fresh garlic, salt, pepper, oregano and the juice of a lemon. Tomato sauce, topped with either fresh mozzarella or feta and more oregano. This is my son's favourite pizza.

I haven't made pizza in a while. Made a batch of dough yesterday and left it in the fridge until tonight. Made my son's favourite - Greek Potato pizza and Moe and I shared a Mushroom and Italian sausage pizza.

Anna, great looking toast.

Roasted a little Sterling Silver top sirloin this morning. Presalted and roasted at 500°F. Made Moe a beef dip sandwich for breakfast. I work today so I will take the same thing for lunch.

Tried a couple of more meals in the PC. Today's breakfast. I had a small Pork Sirloin roast that I had presalted yesterday morning. Was going to roast it this morning but then decided to try and "roast" it in the PC. Seasoned the roast with fresh garlic, lots of black pepper and dried herbs, sage and rosemary. Browned the roast in cast iron pan. Removed from the pan and then sauted an onion cut into quarters. Deglazed the pan with chicken broth and added the contents to the PC. Put the rack into the pot. Put the roast in the little steamer basket and set it on the rack. The programme for meat without bone was 40 minutes. I knew that 40 minutes would be way to long for the size of the roast so I reset it for 32 minutes. The setting was for natural release. Meat turned out perfect. Tender but still held together so it could be slice. It was closer to the flavour of roast pork than I expected it to be. Used the strained cooking broth to make a gravy. Started with a roux. Gravy was seasoned with a little more sage and rosemary and Dijon mustard. Yesterday's breakfast. I promised Moe my chicken pot pie and decided to make it for breakfast. Shortcut - cooked the chicken breasts and the vegetables in the Breville PC to save time and an extra step or two. Made a roux using some of the chicken broth, heavy cream and seasoned the sauce with more fresh thyme. Baked it in my cast iron skillet. Topped with a commercial butter puff pastry. The setting on the PC for chicken is 20 minutes at a reduced pressure. But I was sure that would be too much so I adjusted the time to 15 minutes. Next time I will adjust a little more. I think that 10 to 12 minutes would have been long enough. I would have liked the vegetables to be slightly underdone. They would cook more in the pie while it bakes. Other than that, I was really happy with the way it turned out.

Made my Chicken Pot Pie for breakfast.

Tonight's dinner. Italian Chicken with a side of Pasta Aglio E Olio.

Last night's dinner. Grilled a Porterhouse steak to share with Moe. I got the tenderloin portion. Served with roasted potatoes with mushrooms, onions, peppers and garlic. Seasoned with salt, pepper and basil.

Beef Stew cooked in the pressure cooker.

Your rice turned out perfect. Beef Stew tonight cooked in the Breville Pressure Cooker. The beef cooked in 18 minutes, did a quick pressure release and added the vegetables (potatoes, onions, celery, carrots and green beans and PC'd for 8 minutes. Another quick release and then topped the stew with dumplings and simmered for 15 minutes in the same pot, on the saute low setting. (Moe's plate. I don't do carrots)

Great looking Caesar Salad. Chicken Wings with homemade fries for dinner last night. Homemade TBQ Sauce.

Cappuccino and Scones. My idea of breakfast.

Anna, I only use Russet potatoes. It is my preferred potato for the gratin, mashed, fried, roasted, baked, etc..... Moe's breakfast today - Navy bean and Ham soup. Soaked the beans over night. Used the ham bone and cooked the soup in the Breville PC.

Yesterday's breakfast. Up early so I put a 6 lb bone in ham in the oven. Used the Breville PC to make my potato gratin. Finished it off under the broiler to brown.

Robirdstx, I would be very happy with a slice of your Quiche for breakfast. Moe's breakfast. Giant Lima beans cooked in the Breville PC and then seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic, rosemary, basil, tomatoes and simmered in a little chicken broth served with grilled Italian sausage.

Anna, I can almost imagine how wonderful your house smelled. My family would love that. I presalted Prime Rib Rib Bones last night and cooked them this morning in the Breville Pressure Cooker. Anyone that knows me, knows this is Moe's plate because I don't eat carrots. I'm working today so I'm taking mine for lunch.

Arancini made from Risotto leftover from last night's dinner. Mixed fresh mozzarella into the risotto and filled with Pork Bolognese.

Last night's dinner. Local Coho Salmon with Julienne Vegetables served with a Pressure cooker Risotto. The risotto was good, BUT, I must confess, I'm a traditionalist when it comes to Risotto and actually enjoy the process of making it.

Tex Mex pressured cooked in the Breville. Pinto beans cooked first. Took about 25 minutes. A few minutes longer because I hadn't soaked first. Chicken Chile Verde took 20 minutes.

I haven't baked in months. So I have a very happy husband. He doesn't whine much, but he does whine about eating bakery bought bread. Handmixed a 1000g batch of dough at 73% hydration on Saturday night and left it overnight in the fridge. Baked two small baguettes Sunday night. Will bake again over the next couple of days. Makes great toast.

Soaked Navy Beans over night and cooked them in the Breville this morning. Took 15 minutes on high and 30 minutes to cool down naturally. Moe had a bowl of beans with homemade toasted baguette for breakfast.
