my local MarketBasket

 

is out of Scrapple

 

 

and has been for some time.   Jones just hasn't sent them any

 

what to do ?

 

 Cross over into the light and give Park's pork scrapple a try. A nicely crisp slice or two of scrapple and a fresh, hot salsa, or pleasant hot sauce is just a thing of great beauty. The ones I buy go right into the freezer with a purchase date, and I thaw them out on a FIFO basis, slice them up and freeze the slices, so I can have them or not without feeling compelled to use them up in a short time.

Inspired by some fresh porcini mushrooms on pasta in Rome, I went online and ordered a pound of dried porcinis from nuts.com. When I picked up the held mail from the post office, there they were. My first effort with them was a simple one. I rehydrated them in a tiny amount of boiling water, turned off the heat and let them sit for about an hour. I lifted them out with a slotted spoon and concentrated the hydration liquid by simmering until only a few tablespoons remained. I tossed in a few pats of butter along with the drained porcinis, a splash or two of brandy and a pinch of S & P and simmered for a few minutes and turned off the heat.

Here is my breakfast this morning. Some over easy eggs, blistered shishito peppers from the garden and a toasted snowflake roll smeared with porcini & brandy butter.

It's a start, and a good one! I intend to make a much bigger batch to keep on hand in the fridge for use as a base in pasta sauce and perhaps as a bruschetta in combination with truffle salsa or melted brie.

Bacon and duck egg onigirazu. 

[HungryChris]

Park's pork scrapple, fresh salsa, blistered shishito peppers and a porcini and melted brie bruschetta. I made a mental note to myself, that on some future snowy or rainy day, when I have no errands to run, this bruschetta combination and a cold beer or two, for lunch, would make me feel like a lucky man, indeed. I am so glad that at a recent lunch in Rome, I had a little refresher course on how much I enjoy the flavor of porcinis.

Moe's breakfast the last two mornings.

Toasted baguette with homemade grape jelly made by a friend, from grapes grown by another friend.

 A breakfast experiment. I always wake up optimistic that everything will go right in my day. Nothing can quite blow that away as quickly as a breakfast experiment.   But this was tasty enough that I will make another attempt for a little more neatness.  Nori and egg rolls with tomato, lettuce, bacon and Kewpie mayo. No rice.

Breakfast was simple, but good (in spite of those scrapple haters out there). The last three slices of scrapple in the freezer, some peppers and onions with a bit of fresh picked garlic and a copious amount of fresh salsa.

 Never allow us to get in the way of delicious breakfast. But please, don’t invite us.

Leftover from Sunday lunch at the Gordon Street Tavern: Panko Crusted Pork Tenderloin with Mushroom Gravy and Loaded Mashed Potatoes - reheated beautifully in the CSO - 15 minutes, 350F, Steam Bake

Mango with coconut rice and mint.

Omelette onigirazu.  Mushroom, oven-dried tomato and bacon omelette.  Once you get the hang of constructing these they are hardly any more challenging than a simple western sandwich.

Ham and Cheese on a Toasted English Muffin

[blue_dolphin]

Leftovers from the artichoke & spelt salad I posted about over here. 

I skipped the fresh herbs and added some sautéed mushrooms, onions and spinach leftover from another recipe and a 6.5 min egg.

Onigirazu with ham, green tomatoes, romaine and kewpie mayonnaise.

Just out of the oven.

 

Moe is going to have the legs with toast for breakfast and I'll make hot chicken sandwiches and homemade fries for dinner with the breast meat.

[shain]

For brunch. Fetteh - yogurt, mixed with hot and soft chickpeas, toasted pita pieces. Spiced with garlic, cumin, chili and sumac. Topped with tomato, mint, parsley, toasted nuts (cashew and almonds), a little peppery olive oil and more sumac. Some of the pita keep crispy and some gets soft, soaking in the juices.

The Big One wanted the Chorizo Breakfast. 

 

The middle one wanted the Halloumi and Bacon. 

 

The smallest insisted he only wanted Jammy Toast. 

 

Then ate some of mine (sans green 🙄) and all of Dads toast, hbrown & bacon. 

 

The whites on the big ones eggs were still runny unfortunately but everything else was awesome.

 It’s a little early to get creative in the kitchen but I have to keep busy so that I can keep my excitement in check.   (I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of a houseguest who has been away recuperating from an injury.). Chirashi sushi -  sushi rice mixed with sautéed shrimp shiitake and oyster mushrooms  and topped with a shredded omelet and scallions.   There is also a little pickled ginger on the side. 

[IowaDee]

I'll bet you house guest would be honored to share that with you too!  So glad he's coming back again.  Can't wait for pictures of the happy reunion.

Moe's breakfast.
This is one of both of our favourite meals. 

 

Greek Style Lamb shanks, potatoes and Greek Salad.

I'm working today so will take the same thing for lunch. Breakfast

is too early for me.

[HungryChris]

Tuscan toast, one with porcini spread and melted brie and one spread with some bomba Calabrese I whipped up yesterday using every red cherry pepper in the garden, a few habaneros, eggplant, mushrooms fennel seed salt and olive oil.
