Dinner 2019

@Franci  what a labor of love ❤️ Everything looks fantastic

[Kim Shook]

Mr. Kim mentioned baked eggs the other day, which I’d kind of forgotten about and I saw Sunny Anderson make some good looking ham and cheese biscuits on The Kitchen this week, so tonight was breakfast for dinner.  Baked eggs before going in the CSO:

 

Biscuits and accoutrement:

Honey Dijon Butter (part of the biscuit recipe), fig syrup, and FROG jam.  The biscuits look a little dark on top because they were forever getting browned.  They were done, but pale, so I just cranked the broiler for a minute.  They were very good, especially with the butter. 

 

Plate:

Biscuit, baked egg, fried potatoes and onions, and ham.  I caved and cooked the onions and potatoes separately and put them together at the end. 😏

Breakfast for dinner doesn't usually do it for me but this looks really nice!

We really do it a lot.  It's easy, fast, delicious, and, to be honest, I almost never want a breakfast like this at breakfast "time".

 We do it too— it’s relatively fast and definitely filling. But what is frog jam?

Somehow I overlooked that part.

pantry dinner (except for the tomatoes and eggs): pan bagnat

I read party dinner.  Party or pantry it all looks good to me.

That is so much less exciting than what I imagined that kind of jam to actually be.  Mine involved a blender.

I love frog meat, but jam?

[Margaret Pilgrim]

liuzhou, can you tell us more about making these amazing hand-pulled noodles?

[kayb]

@Franci -- Just spectacular! Happy birthday to Victor (I like Mr. Franci, too!)

 

@Kim -- your baked eggs put me in mind of a couple of recipes I cobbled together from some different ones in Deep Run Roots

 

Take individual ramekins, put an inch-thick layer of cheese grits in the bottom. I have some three-inch ones, about two and a half inches deep, that are perfect.This can be done the night before so they'll set up. Top with Vivian's stewed tomatoes (I canned a bunch of these, sans bread crumbs, which I add when preparing to serve). Crack an egg on top. Sprinkle with diced meat of your choice -- bacon, ham, sausage of some sort. Top with cheese. Bake. Marvelous!

I'd much rather have that meal for dinner than for breakfast.   

Your biscuits look great. I like them with more colour.   Did you bake the eggs on Bake steam or just the steam setting?

[Ann_T]

Moe wanted Potato Leek soup so that is what we had for dinner.

 

With sourdough croutons.

[rotuts]

@Ann_T

 

That looks fabulous !

 

I lived in Europe for several years a long long time ago.

 

from time to time , we would go to a restaurant that served The Soup , from a tureen.

 

always a white one , similar to the bowl you have pic'd above.

 

Ive always wanted to have soup at home from a similar similar  white tureen.

 

neve happened .  but I do know it tastes better that way.

 

just have someone else do the Clean-Up.

Thank you!  I did the eggs on bake steam at 350F.  It has been so long since I've made them that it was before I got the CSO and I used to mostly do them in my toaster oven, but I've been doing everything in the CSO on bake steam lately and thought I'd try them.  They were a little overdone (I was waiting on those biscuits), but very tender.

[Ann_T]

Thanks @rotuts.  The bowls are Emile Henry Lion Head bowls.  They come in a number of colours.

The bowls were a gift.  I've had them for many years.

And there is a matching Tureen which I don't have.

Every once in a while I have to go over the top with something. It is a Scotch Egg inside a layer of grated potatoes which is fried until the potatoes are browned then baked until the sausage is done.

[suzilightning]

I'm struggling here, folks.  I just made some Sloppy Joe but I don't want to eat it....

Sloppy Joe isn't something I've ever wanted to eat but I'm sure Joe can go into the fridge or freezer until whatever desire possessed you to make it in the first place resurfaces.

Polish cabbage soup is in the Dutch oven for tonight’s dinner.

Pork butt, carrots,celery, onion, herbs, bay leaves (is that an herb?)’ potato, beef broth and, of course,, cabbage.

My Mom’s recipe.  Smells so good.  Will serve with some nice homemade Amish bread.
