Easter Sunday breakfast in this household; homemade lup cheong (Chinese pork belly, rock sugar and rose wine dried sausages) steamed with rice and drizzled with dark soy sauce and shallot oil; zombie coffee.

 

 

 

Love those on rice. I remmber when I did bok choy steamed with them for an Easter buffet and my god-daughter and Viet mom almost wept with pleasure. The rice was more Carib/Malay with split peas, coconut milk and saffron....  Cool you made your own

Like @liuzhou, I felt it imperative to acknowledge Easter  in some fashion.

 

 

 Smashed up cabbage roll crowned with an egg fried in duck fat.

I've been making my recipe for caramel sticky buns for years.  But why I never thought of using the pineapple upside down trick I don't know.  Now I do know................

[rotuts]

@David Ross

 

fantastic !

 

Ive done something similar in the past , but I used canned pears , the kind w no aded or little added sugar to the syrup.

 

they usually come in 1/2 pear cuts so I slice them into maybe 1/3'd and line the bottom of the pan then

 

add the generous helping of the PecanGoodNess.

 

uf course , you have to like Pears !

 

if you try it , let me know.  i might get inspired to make them again.

 

also works well w unside-down batter  if you not in a Bun-nie mood !

Hot dogs and sorghum.  Sorghum  was chewy in a very pleasant way, I cooked it in IP 20 minutes grains setting.

I love sticky buns and pineapple upside down cake , but I can't shouldn't eat them now!

Shame on you! LOL

My God. Pineapple sticky buns. The yeast dough I'd put in the freezer for kolaches may have just found a different use. Those are gorgeous.

I did  a big stuffed turkey dinner with stuffed clams and kielbasa apps, mashed potatoes w gravy and roasted asparagus and Deb coordinated  an Easter egg hunt out front for Easter ( no time for pics). It was good to get back to normal activity this morning.

 Occasionally I manage to get it right despite myself. 

[kayb]

Ham and biscuit (with blackberry jam, not seen because it's inside). And a tangerine.

 

 

Followed by strawberries and creme fraiche, because I could. I love Easter leftovers.

@shain, I had leftover charoset for breakfast, also. Mine was simple, finely diced granny smith apples and walnuts, cinnamon, cardamon, honey. I should make it year round, I really enjoy it plain and on yogurt.

[scubadoo97]

@shain  dates or  apples?

I planted zucchini in the basement a few days ago and this morning, prepared a little refresher course in why, for breakfast.

Baked bread last night so I would have some for toast this morning.

Put a pot of navy beans on to cook in the Breville PC this morning for Moe's breakfast.

He loves beans with toast.

In addition to the pineapple on top, I put pineapple in the middle of the dough and brushed it with butter, a sprinkle of cinnamon and nutmeg then rolled up like we'd do with cinnamon rolls.

Originally intended to be a kielbasa omelet, but it became apparent that either an additional egg, or less kielbasa was needed. I stubbornly refused to give ground on either front, so I ended up with scrambled eggs with kielbasa and sautéed zucchini.

Toasted rye bread, thick yogourt and canned sardines in tomato sauce. 

[weinoo]

That's interesting, @Anna N.

[chefmd]

Duck confit, potatoes, mushrooms hash.  Fried egg.  Parsley, cilantro, lime zest to have something green on the plate

I like my generous duck to potatoes ratio compared to restaurant versions of this dish.  I am not concerned with food and labor costs.  Although I am very concerned that this was the last confit leg that I had.   Need to procure and cure more legs.

Baked these just before bed last night.

I broke up a block of Callebaut White Chocolate and made White Chocolate and Walnut scones with Brown Butter Glaze.

Perfect with an early morning Cappuccino.

Never forget that chicken legs treated the same way are also quite scrumptious. 

[HungryChris]

Leftover kielbasa, sauerkraut and Colby Jack cheese grilled on Italian bread, and salsa, of course.
