Breakfast for a chilly morning.

Polenta with cornmeal and fresh corn, blended smooth with some cream, milk and pecorino. Mushrooms (edit: and chestnuts) pan fried in butter and thyme, red wine, reduced.

I assume you are referring to aged cheeses, to which I'll agree - this recipe doesn't come together my in mind. However, curried cauliflower with paneer is a classic.

 

Yes, this calls for a "mature" cheddar.  I prefer green vegetables in a curried paneer dish,  just for the color contrast but the flavor would certainly be a good fit.

Shain, looks delicious.  I’m a sucker for a plate of grits.  Polenta with fresh corn and corn meal takes it to the next level.  The mushrooms are a perfect pairing

Thanks :)

 

I forgot to mention my favorite part - there were also chestnuts along with the shrooms.

Yesterday I made DH a bacon omelette using a method I saw somewhere??

Put the eggs in the blender and whiz until very frothy.

Fry bacon and cut it up.  Pour egg over bacon and cook to your taste.

He said it was nice and light in texture....or maybe that was the bacon talking 😃

Where does the texture pattern come from on that crust?

The bakery where I bought it.

 

I don't know They are good,  but they are always like that. I did ask once, but it is a small, local chain and the bread is baked in a central bakery, so the staff in the retail outlet didn't know.

The omelettes at the Camillia Grill in New Orleans are done like that.  We loved the texture.  I whip mine very vigorously when I make omelettes (which is exactly wrong according to most experts) because we like them fluffy.  Edited to say that the Grill actually does them with a milkshake maker, but it's basically the same technique.

3 sandwiches on mini rye bread - mini rye, cranberry relish, Miracle Whip and some thinly shaved turkey breast.

Could also be put under "Snacking while eGulleting…."

Nothing is better than frying in lard.

Nothing.  Do not quote me on this.

Huevos Rancheros.

It seems there's no longer corn tortillas for sale anywhere around :( I'll have to order masa harina and make some myself next time. This time, I subbed tortilla chips, which are tasty in their own way, but doesn't feel right.

The tomato and beans flavored with chipotle, plenty of chili, and some cumin, lime. A few toppings.

back from a quick stop at our local Shoprite(no Ritz crackers, non-dairy ice cream or pomegranate/carrot juice in the house for himself) and a meeting just as it began to really snow around here.  I had picked up some thinly sliced Finlandia lacey swiss.  Had on hand some nice bread, the roasted turkey breast, some fancy pants sauerkraut from Wegmans and Thousand Island dressing.....a Rachel for breakfast with some added spicy bread and butter pickles.

I don't do breakfast but when I got up this morning only to find it was a snow day and I had no work I thought of Cream of Wheat.  My Cream of Wheat seems to have expired in 2009.  No matter, it tasted good to me.
