  1. My roommate actually made me dinner, this is very weird...an awesome Korean BBQ bowl.

    Then I messed with a new dish since I got some awesome squid.

    Charred Monterey Bay squid, celery root, garlic confit, satsuma beurre blanc, watermelon radish and sprouts

  2. Always with the kind words, thank you!

    The potatoes,

    Turns out durring the Santa Barbara uni season the ones that break or are not too pretty are set aside and frozen. I grab one of these tubs and scoop out really clean tasting uni for puree and sauce applications. I boil a russet, run it through a tammis, run a scoop of urchin through and then fold in some melted butter and salt. You get the creamy sea flavor on the back end, people love them. The miso flavor in the cod was a little overpowering for them this time though so next time I'll go naked with the fish.

  3. Been a while since I plated and took a nice picture. Miso local black cod, uni potatoes, shimeji mushrooms, chili, bok choy and yellow chives. The fish was so good, my new fish guys are awesome.

  4. Oh sure. I'll make a blonde stock if I need one. I use this roast chicken water mostly in hearty soups, mainly for my mushroom soup that I'm known for. It's a strong chicken flavor for sure. Reduced to a jus with any kind of poultry dish it's an awesome concentrated poultry flavor. And like I said, poaching breasts in the fat was a revelation to add chicken flavor to a lean cut.

  5. I roast chicken wings for my stocks so there's a good deal of skin. There is a great deal of roasted chicken flavor in the stock and the fat that gets skimmed is awesome to add to bags when SV something like a chicken breast.

  6. Raw oysters. Yes everyone loves them and I should too but I jst can't stand the texture and then often overly salty liquor. But I always will try another if someone offers.

    The only time I enjoyed an oyster was at Benu. It was a single bite with the oyster just slightly warmed and flavors of kimchee and pork.

  7. For sure. When was the last time I posted something fancy pants? I just usually post what I'm making for family meal over here and then maybe if I come up with a new dish for work I'll make a nice picture.
