    Another postponed dinner becomes breakfast.

     

    Roast%20Top%20Sirloin%20Sterling%20Silve 

    Roasted a little presalted Sterling Sliver Top Sirloin roast for breakfast. Roasted at 500°F for about 30 minutes.  Took it out of the oven at 118°F and it rose to 122°F

    while resting.

  2. Anna,  Your potato cauliflower looks delicious.    Julie Sahni is my go too for Indian recipes. Love that recipe.

     

    Shelby, I'll skip the gizzards, but would love some of your chicken livers.

     

    Scubadoo, I haven't had Jerk chicken in a while.  That looks sooooo goood!!!

  3. Picked up a fresh organic turkey after Easter. Just a little 12 pounder.  

     

    Turkey%20April%201st%2C%202016-XL.jpg 

    Presalted it and  then roasted it Friday morning before leaving for work. I wanted 

    hot turkey sandwiches for dinner.

    Pan went back into the oven to brown the drippings.

     

    Turkey%20Gravy%20April%201st%2C%202016-X

    Made a big pot of rich turkey gravy.

     

    Turkey%20Hot%20Sandwich%20with%20Gravy%2

    This was one of the best tasting turkeys.  The only thing I would have done different is to make fries instead of mashed potatoes.   We traditionally have fries with this

    meal, but after I got home from work , I decided that mashed potatoes would be easier.   And they were, BUT, should have went with fries.   Just not the same

    with mashed potatoes.

    Ann, that looks like a very lovely fresh version of Caldo Tlapeno. Do you have a recipe? Thanks!

    (btw, I have long suspected Moe is an invention, but if not, no one else on earth gets so many amazing breakfasts. I would NEVER show my husband a breakfast post of yours.) 

    Katie, sorry, I just saw your comments.  

    Moe is real.  And he loves breakfast.

     


    Mexican Chicken Rice Soup (Caldo Tlapeno)

    I love the Tequila House's chicken rice soup and after having it
    the first time, I came home and made my own version. 

    Cook a couple of chicken breasts in homemade chicken broth.  (Or use your favourite brand). 

    To serve, spoon some cooked rice into the bowl, add the cut up chicken breast and broth and garnish with fresh chopped tomato, onion, a piece of chipotle pepper, avocado, cubes of Monterrey Jack cheese,
    cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice. 

    NOTE: Do not substitute another pepper. It is the Chipotle pepper that makes this soup special. I just  rinse the adobo sauce off a canned chipotle and use that. But you could probably use a dried chipotle pepper.

  5. I'm with Liuzhou. .   I'm very picky about fish so it there was even the hint of a fishy smell, it would be tossed.

    We live on the west coast and I buy fresh fish right down at the Bay. Never once have I found fresh to be fishy. 

     

    And when we lived in Toronto, there were a number of fish shops and again, fresh fish never smelled fishy.

    Baguettes were baked this morning.   The second dough, went into the fridge for a few hours to retard the rise.  

    Taken out late afternoon, given time to warm up before shaping  and proofing.   Baked early evening in Dutch Ovens.

  10. Okanagancook, You can tell it was roasted and not SV'd.  Appearance is much more appealing. 

     

     I'm hooked on the high heat method, but maybe next time I'll give your slow method a try.  Been a long time since I've used that method.
