The sunchokes are head and shoulders above any Indian dish I've made before. This recipe is a keeper

Pizza with roasted cherry tomatoes, bacon, caramelized onion and garlic, parmigiano and mozzarella. I don't like my pizza crust very dark; just barely done.

Easy dumplings. I made 3 different sorts with lamb, half fat pork and half fat pork with whole prawns. I also used preserved vegs in the mince. First dozen was steamed but the rest was cooked on the table hot pot style.

BonVivant, that looks excellent and you must be incredibly busy cooking today because I noticed your post on CH around the same time as this one on EG showing photos of a completely different but equally impressive looking dinner that you made today. Well done and I love your photography.

We had lots of people stop by  yesterday.. i made at least 24 chicken sandwiches.. brined, butter milked and then floured and fried.  Served with a basil mayo, onion, hot sauce, arugula and tomato for the most part.  When the basil oil ran out, i made cilantro mayo. some had a horseradish cheddar..  

 

this particular one was cilantro mayo and then the last of the salsa fresco with avocado.  trying to move inventory.. my friends an architect so, i was trying to make some type of structure..

i made a classic version of rice pudding.. cooked rice stirred with milk and sugar and thickened.. then i added some more milk and a few eggs, butter and vanilla.    i made dulce de leche by boiling condensed milk in the can.

How much food do you keep in the house,BKE?

 

I keep a lot of food in the house.. Since having the baby, we just have people show up at our house..  It's been happening like this since the baby came.. so, i like to have food if people showed up.. I had a 3 pound pork roast brining as well, that didn't get eaten.. I am going to stuff that and roast it tonight.     Today, we are not seeing anyone. we turned off the phones and told everybody that was over yesterday that we are on locked down.  As, i am leaving on a business trip soon

this is what they looked like before cooking. this butcher is in Chelsea Market in NY and has very interesting cuts of meat in addition to the premade burgers.

mm84321, that is even more striking than your usual beautiful platings. I especially like the border.

1. Is that dill?

2. Did you use tweezers to accomplish that precision?

Smoked salmon. Caviar. :wub:

Would you adopt me?

Thank you kindly. Yes, that is dill, placed there by my fingers, so no tweezers. I would consider adoption under a series of very particular circumstances. :)
