    I made shrimp conchiglioni, with tomato sauce. 
    Unfortunaly is winter in Brazil and the tomatoes are a little green. So I used italians pomodoro pelati and tomato sauce with the natural tomatoes.

    Conchiglioni is hard to fit on plate, so I used zuchinni rings under then .

  2. Looks like tenderloin, but it's entrecote.  I bought a very low fat beef entrecote, and changed the cut for a high steak

    The salt was sal de maras. A Salt from the Incas at Peru. From de Andes Mountain Range.

    The sauce was a chimichurri ( a Argentine spice mix) mayonnaise, add my liked spices.

  3. Today's dinner was Ossobuco.

    I tried make a faster ossobuco, only 1 hour cooking.

    I marinated the meat for 6 hours in a brine of pineaple skin, salt and pepper.

    The taste and the texture was very good!

    The gremolata I made using skin of kumquats or kinkan, passeri and garlic.

  4. Last weekend I made a shoyu lamen  and the chashu was the star off the dish. I'm a newbie sous vide. The chashu was my third experiente with sous vide.

    I bought a big, Nice pork belly with bones and fat.  

    image.jpg

    Removed the bones.

    And rolled 2 pieces for the chashu.

    1 piece I don't rolled and cooked all then in sous vide with shoyu, sugar and ginger 64 celsius.

    image.jpg

     

    The no rolled belly I cooked for 24hours, was soft, the meat juicy. The skin tender.

    image.jpg

     

    The rolled belly was cooked for 30 hours the skin turned in to gelatin and the texture was fantastic.

    image.jpg

     

    The no rolled belly lost much more liquid then the rolled belly. And the skin was diferent.

  5. Do you know pinhão?

    It's a seed of Araucaria tree or Paraná Pine tree.

    Found only in the winter in southern Brazil.

    A delicassy. Just cook in salted water or on the plate of a wood stove.
