    Dinner! 2012

    I need to start refining dish presentation.. WE have some awesome looking stuff.. I made turnip gnocchi and Shortrib Ragu: Also: WE started with an pistachio crusted salmon, sage turnip mash, russet potatoes with Morel Mushroom ragu, ham stock poached fresh garden beans
  9. So here is the finished dish: Turnip gnocchi poach in a ham stock/ Short Rib Ragu/ in a bed of beef sauce The Gnocchi were light a dissolve in your mouth, they could have been just a bit denser,( probably working the dough a bit more ) I don't mind a bit of toothy -ness---oh BTW I was off in my math, it was the 4/1 ratio ( Yikes ) 330 g /80g Starch to flour--cut in and only a quick hand roll to come together..
  10. The Dough!! Sorry doing this backwards!!
  11. The Turnips!!
  12. Scott, I am really impressed so far but its a pain. I roasted the russet potato and turnip in oven on salt , 2 med ea, 350 for about an hr or until the internal temp was 205/210 F. I should have started turnips earlier. I got about 330g starch after peeling..Ouch they are hot. Turnips I had to grate and chop , so I grated the tators too. I decided to go about 3/1 starch to flour 80ish grams AP flour 1 egg yolk mixed Pinch of salt and nutmeg Now I chopped/cut my flour in till about 3/4 of the 80 grams were in and then kneaded by hand. I didn't use all the flour and used the rest for bench> Test run.. I'm boiling them in a ham stock and I made a short rib ragu to top. I hope to get a finished shot.. but with company--ITS NOT EASY!! Turnips add a really nice sweetness
  13. Gonna make " Potato and Turnip Gnocchi " Thinking of a 4/1 ratio of starch to flour by weight, one egg yolk, pinch of salt and nutmeg! I'm using two each- "Potato and Turnip" weighting ( sp ) will come after bake and peel Thoughts /ideas?
  14. TikiDoc-- Beautiful GD!! Did you have to finish the cart?

  16. Nice!! Thanks for the pic.. Chris
  17. I want something I can put all my prep stuff on.. thats why I want a table too!! Otherwise.. I see your idea!!
  18. Wind damper and If I put it on my deck near hand rail it would keep splatter away.. btw. I wouldnt have that tall a burner Chris.. its an example!! But you know your right!! I'm wondering if I could use a S/S work table and mount a burner.. removable too!!
  19. Does anyone know , who might sell portable wok carts.. with a built in burner or two and a back splash. I dont want a tri-pod set up!! I want something I can use on my deck outside!! Curious? Paul Like this?
