Please pass the onion rings.

 

[CanadianHomeChef]

Dolsot Bibimbap. Made Bibimbap before. First time using a dolsot. It was sizzling at the table. 😋 

[Margaret Pilgrim]

Addendum, pork belly was wolfed.    Gravy was great.    Munchkin who hates potatoes surrounded two helpings of mash with gravy.    Went on to a large cut of apricot slab.    

 

Tomorrow, pizza and peach pie

[CantCookStillTry]

I think I spent too much time in a strange Scotland thread and got some sort of inspiration. 

Guinness, Beef and Veg Stoup. Ya just can't make it prettyful okay? 🙃

Those are some pretty spectacular onion rings.  What is your recipe?

 

Last night, linguini with swordfish and burst cherry tomatoes.  Recipe from the Blanchard's cookbook. I've never been to Anguilla but if I get there I want to eat at Blanchard's.  

 

[mgaretz]

Salmon, cooked SV then seared and maple-bourbon sauce, served with snap peas and green beans in butter.

Things have cooled off a bit here and I feel like cooking again.

 

Made John something he asked for he saw in a free magazine called Natural Awakenings.  Pasta, potato, green beans with pesto.  Add shrimp, please.

Tonight I'm trying a recipe from The Prairie Homestead Cookbook:  Maple Glazed Porkchops.  I'm making potato pancakes, peas and carrots and serving it up with sour cream and applesauce.

Tomorrow I have chicken pieces marinating to make Sicky Honey Chicken  from the same cookbook.  Jasmine rice with pineapple and sautéed baby bok choy for the rest.

kampachi carpaccio

 

 

yuzu yellowtail

Light meal tonight - Mexican Shrimp Cocktail

 

[BeeZee]

Friends came over for dinner, made gazpacho last night, it definitely needed a day in the fridge to come together; grilled yellow squash and red onions; salmon fillets grilled on cedar planks; pearl couscous salad. Both the squash and salmon got the same marinade, soy/lemon juice/honey/garlic/aleppo pepper/oil. 

[rotuts]

Bavette SV rare  ( 130 f ) sliced thin.

 

Salad w ALDI Chipotle Ranch , just a hint  ( bottled )

 

Salad cold , Babette room temp.  hot here.

 

 

 

 

P.S.:  the Bavette is sirloin tips but sold as a whole pice of meat. you have to ask for a whole piece.

 

when sirloin tips are on sale ( the cut up stiff in the meat case )  ask the butcher to trim up a few whole ones

 

at S&S they gladly do this , right next to a large window , showing off their knife skills.  Inc. theatrical sharpening of the knife.

 

then SV.  Please don't mention that its a Bavette.  it will go off-sale in a flash.

 

more like this coming days as it pretty hot here

Breakfast for dinner Friday--zucchini fritters, hash brown red potatoes, boudin and eggs

 

Hot wings last night

 

 

 

[BonVivant]

Have been eating mostly chilled food again.

Tomato soup. Ground almond added for body.

 

 

Chilled beetroot soup. That's not butter on my bread, that's triple-cream Brillat-Savarin. Cold quark for the soup.

 

The same cheese

 

Leftover beetroot puree with pasta. Had to make the food earlier so I could chill it.

 

Fresh tomatoes with pasta. Pureed half the tomatoes for sauce.

Everything stunning.    The blue board "table" is perfect with the octopus and beets.    I can smell the surf just feet away.

Pizza...local joint, we have an abundance of good pizza in our neighborhood. This one is called the Brooklyn, it has fresh mozzarella and crushed tomatoes, fresh basil, olive oil instead of cooked sauce.

Pork Tenderloin, Shrimp and Vegetable Stir Fry with Jasmine Rice

 

[gfweb]

Smoked chicken salad

 

Chimichurri SV flat iron steak

 

[JoNorvelleWalker]

Inspired by @Chris Hennes recent report from Bulrush, dinner was a Penzeys Ozark pork chop.

 

 

 

Due to the vanity of the cook the pork was overdone.

 

 

[weinoo]

 

Southern watermelon, local peach, who knows where from ricotta salata, aceto balsamico from Modena, California olive oil, Indian Tellicherry pepper, Irish sea salt, mint. The well-traveled, high-carbon footprint salad.

[Paul Bacino]

Copper river salmon with Cauliflower Potato salad

 

 

 

[TdeV]

These husk cherries were purchased Saturday from the St Louis Farmers' Market on a guided tour by Rob. These same husk cherries (well, not exactly the same cherries ) were part of the dinner at Bulrush. See the pork coppa dish.

.

 

These little fruits are incredibly sweet and tangy. In my dish below they were added to the pan for the last minute. The ravioli was stuffed with mushrooms. Sauce was frozen basil cheese butter. And, while the dish doesn't look like much, it was truly great. Ravioli came from Midwest Pasta Company (according to the Italian markets from The Hill, the last shop in St Louis which sells fresh pasta). We had to empty our cooler full of salami, apples and bread, so we could each bring home fresh pasta (a combined total of 9 boxes!). Tonight DH and I will have our last box of ravioli, this one stuffed with roasted butternut squash.
