looks beautiful

I don’t have an instant pot but do have a stove top pressure cooker. Use it mostly for making stock from chicken carcasses. I cook most things stove top. I feel like I develop more flavor that way. Could be wrong

Kale, red bean and turkey sausage stew

I certainly DO! I most often clean as I go so there is not a sink full of pots and pans. If I can get my wife to clear the table I’m ok She’s still working, I’m not. I’ll wash pots no problem. I’m good at it. It’s all part of the process

David, I would think mackerel would be excellent for smoking. Any oily fish works well. I don’t always do a cure on my hot smoked salmon. Most often just salt and brown sugar for a few hours but hard to call it cured. For an Asian inspired direction a brine using sake, rice vinegar, black vinegar or similar would be a good start.

Grouper piccata tonight

Part of a farm produce pick up a couple weeks ago, supposedly to help local farmers

A small red potato, zucchini and shallot was breakfast for two

Used my wife’s recent challah bread for French toast this morning

One pot chicken dinner after a group zoom event with a few friends

looks like a good beginning to caldo verde

@Wayne looks excellent. My MO is tails and bellies go on the smoker when I’m portioning a side of salmon/steelhead

Not sure they made that statement. But why would they want to compete in a larger playground? George Dickle is about their only competition in the Tennessee whiskey arena. No doubt marketing is the answer

51% corn stored in new American oak charred casks is about it . Edited to add, distilled to no more than 160 proof and it needs to go in the barrel at 125 proof and come out at least 80 proof or more

Not true. Please reread the regulations for bourbon

51% corn, stored in new charred barrel and made in the US. That’s it

By definition Jack Daniels is bourbon. It meets all the criteria They would prefer not to be called bourbon as “Tennessee whiskey” has far less competition

7 1/2. That one on the bottom looks pretty thin

Looks like my wife’s attempt at homemade matzah

My wife is attempting to bake bread. I’m staying out of the kitchen. After 37 yrs of marriage I finally know better

Looks against

looks like my wife venture into homemade matzoh. Got to say I’ll take the boxed stuff if given a choice

Yes when inspecting a bag you have to look for movement

Everything looks great but that crispy brown potato skin is calling me. Nice plate
