Ask and you shall receive! This is one of the many great recipes that were posted on Instagram during the pandemic when Chefs were bored as heck! For those that don't know Stephane Buron he is one of those Chefs who can put MOF after his name and has some **'s from the Tire company. (Before I get yelled at that's the credit, also in the pictures) -AQ

This is kind of random answer to an 15 year old thread is what makes EGullet worth reading! Good sleuthing

How about a pain d'epices & PX Sherry gel with the coffee ice cream? I think that would go very nicely

Just look for Ajinomoto in any Japanese market or Amazon. The original MSG

You don't have to go to culinary school if you don't want too but if you don't just remember that you will have to be more choosy and only work at top restaurants to build your skills and resume make sure to stay a good 2 years if possible early on. I went to a trade school myself and recommend it while also working and doing team and individual culinary competitions. Also there are still many high paying jobs that require degrees even in Culinary. My mentor used to call it 'the law of the lid' that by not getting that degree or degrees you are taking yourself out of certain jobs but do you HAVE to? No certainly not.

I would try going back to the normal amount of yeast & leave everything else the same

There is a non trivial amount of Fish, everything from trout roe, to eel, langoustine, monkfish, kinmedai, Hiramasa, amberjack, king crab, crayfish, lobster, scallop. A lot of cool techniques, imo it's the kind of book you take part of to play around with, sauces, broths techniques. At least that is how I approach it.

I'm at the eating cookies in bed portion of the evening lol so I'm check for you in the morning but I don't recall anything too crazy / hard too get like Noma . It's very French / European kiseki if that makes any sense

He has some self published books & yes I have it from Now Serving in LA. It's that new style, similar to the Septime book with pictures of dishes in the front and recipes / formulas towards the back. If you like his food (and I do) you will like it. This style is definitely for pros or advanced amateurs who don't need a lot of hand holding.

it's made in a mini (300g) loaf pan and and goes about half height but YMMV if you are a light eater. It's smaller than 2 slices of cake I think & Thanks for checking it out!

You'll have to set your browser to translate, that's easier on some than others! But I have made this dessert and it's perfect for 2. For the recipe follow the first link https://chef-johjiro.com/2022/02/10/itachoco_cake/ And the video itself

Roasted chicken breast, giant beans & fennel

You can do purple mash potatoes btw. I used to do a mashed potato bar and for one option we used the purple Okinawan potatoes. They were pretty tasty!

A potato ricer or food mill works best for the glue thing! But 'baga's do taste good with mashed potatoes in either case

Tomato concasse, zucchini with preserved Myers lemons mixed into the risotto

Risotto with braised pork neck

Now I'll have to be on the look out for red Banyuls vinegar! Didn't know it was a thing. I have seen the MP vinegars here in LA but only some of the flavored ones that don't interest me so much. Also wanted to recommend again some of the Spanish vinegars I mentioned above, just fantastic flavor

English muffins!

Do croissants count as bread? I say yes. These i made for my mom!

My mom always bought the Wyler's brand. It's funny how the Knorr just doesn't taste right even though they are basicly the same!

That was the heyday of the LAT food section. They were stacked with great writers and cooks besides Russ Parsons; Clifford Wright (who wrote the tome 'A Mediterranean Feast') Also Marion Cunningham was a regular.

Yes, a pot for on the stove that Staub originally designed for the Japanese Market specifically for rice, this is the larger size about 1.5l I'll try and take a pic of the outside. I guess you could say i'm trolling? Because it's not a machine but it is specifically designed for rice. I do have a zoji but I've always preferred cooking rice in a pot. Lol

My fancy new French Japanese rice cooker from Staub. They make this and a nabe originally for the Japanese Market. The nabe still might be only through Amazon Japan. Yukari rice in the pot.

I've heard this one is good but haven't made it myself https://redstaryeast.com/recipes/bread-machine-gluten-free-brown-and-white-bread/

Is that recipe posted somewhere?
