    Pig Spleen

    Scrapple.
  2. Has any of the FD meat been tasted? What's it like? I picture it missing all of the aromatic notes.
  3. reduced balsamic on asparagus
  4. Its a good restaurant too.
  5. But all of them have been cooked/fermented which greatly if not completely lowers the chances of spores surviving to proliferate.

  7. Deli cups. Stackable, taking up little cabinet space. Cheap and reusable. http://www.amazon.com/Reditainer-Extreme-Containers-16-Ounce-36-Pack/dp/B00HG8YTB0/ref=sr_1_9?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1411944705&sr=1-9&keywords=deli+cups

    Dinner 2014 (Part 5)

    Tomatoes in M&C are great !
  9. Other than survival or maybe backpacking, what does one do with freeze-dried meat?
  10. The meal was very good. Tempura rock shrimp with a hint of orange, wagyu dumplings, Miso black cod, Duck, duck, duck, wasabi rice, Yuzu meringue tart.
  11. My miniprep has lasted 10 years with occasional use.
  12. morimotorestaurant.com This is THE Morimoto, not some little dumpy pretender. You'd think era of this stuff was long gone, but it lives on in lots of restaurants. I blame consultants. What's wrong? Music-NSFW use Splash page-irritating Multiple clicks just to get through the dinner menu Tiny font- try reaqding this on a mobile
  13. I have a miniprep and love it. Costs around $35 on Amazon. It isn't going to make dough and its not rugged, but for sauces or lots of chopping, esp if you have arthritis, its great. Stick blender is good too, but it won't chop

    Unfashionable Dinner

    I think of Diane as a mustard based sauce with flamed-off brandy.
  15. I like the show of attitude. He doesn't want any bullshit. Kind of like a gentle Kenny Shopsin.

    Water bath question

    Cooking higher than the desired temp will overcook the outer parts of the meat to some degree.
  17. So tomorrow I'm going to dig back through old pics and online reviews to jog my memory. I thought that I was the only one who does this. I have a few written recipes, but photos of everything. If I can see the dish, I can remember how I made it. I know, I know, this isn't how its done. But it works most of the time and, lazy sod that I am, I'm not good at keeping this sort of thing organized. I do save recipes that look good in magazines/online and annotate them. And I have trusted cookbooks with annotated post-its. But most of what I cook isn't through following a written recipe.
  18. In other words, they get hot
  19. I get mushrooms direct from the growers. Buck or two a pound and really fresh.
  20. Bet it doesn't. Freeze dried medical stiff with albumin still foams annoyingly if rehydrated carelessly.
  21. You will fit in just fine! Welcome.
  22. You also need to decide who the audience is. A beginner will need lots of explanation of routine techniques eg fold vs whip vs beat....how to cook eggs without burning...why a dish is placed in a pan of water. The whys are very important.
  23. Clear recipes with annotations about things that aren't necessarily obvious for a novice cook. Substitutions for hard to get ingredients. Photos are wonderful.
  24. Out of respect for Rotuts...no links for you. Just go to Amazon and search "steam oven".
