I had some ackee and was feeling in a mood today... Was listening to Buju Banton early this morning.. Next thing you know, i made a ginger and all spice kale, add some peppers, garlic and tomatoes.. Cook for a bit, add the ackee and some bread... 

 

 

Ackee canned? Brand?

[BKEats]

You know, i have been really excited to start playing around with ackee but, the freaking can taste kills it for me... It's too bad... I have been to jamaica a few times and the best part of the culinary experience has always been the ackee.. My wife didn't mind it and actually like it.. And while I didn't hate it, i didn't like it either... I used linsteads.. Too bad, i need fresh... I have problems with metal and am very sensitive to the canned taste.  Oh well, i have already starting looking for fresh ackee.

@BKEats  Completely different "animal" I know but have you played with jackfruit on your veg journey? There has been a run on it at Trader Joes in my area  https://www.traderjoes.com/digin/tag/Jackfruit/

[BKEats]

I absolutely hate jack fruit.. I hate the consistency, i hate the strange acidity it always has..

IMHO many/most tropical fruits are an acquired taste/texture/scent.   There is something "wild" about their esters.

Oatmeal stewed in pork stock; topped with sausage, onions & parsley.  Not my usual ugly:

Thanks for this. After a long NO on oatmeal I bought some a few weeks ago. . Your savory "congee style" appeals.

[chromedome]

I have a vague recollection of someone here doing risotto-style "avenotto" with oats maybe...15, 16 years ago? Working at the moment so don't have the time to look it up, but...

Handed in my normal card and had a naughty minty breakfast today.

Normally it does here too. But this Gelato place neglected the chips. They also didn't have Vanilla which is what I would have usually got. Still yummy.

Brunch. Vegetable "shakshuka". Tomatoes, sweet long pepper, eggplant, zucchini, mushrooms, green beans, peas. Mozzarella, basil.

 

 

[liamsaunt]

One egg omelet with garlic scapes and swiss cheese, homemade bread, and local strawberries

Another one of Moe's breakfasts.

@Ann_T - I am deeply envious of your poached eggs.  And that plate or whatever it is is absolutely gorgeous!

 

Last week – Mr. Kim chose the challah with half olive & cream cheese and half butter:

 

I had challah, IP hard cooked eggs, and sausage:

 

I made some Breakfast Pockets to take to my in laws.  My mise:

 

The filling - eggs, sausage, hash browns, onions, Cheddar:

 

Building the pocket:

 

Clumsily folded:

 

But they held together fairly well:

 

 

I made the full batch (24) so we could keep some – we like them a lot and the CSO reheats them so nicely. 

 

Today:

The last of the challah and some sausage.

[suzilightning]

Yesterday and today ... Arnie Palmers.

 

...and a teaspoonful of non-dairy Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia.

The first of three. Juicily messy.

@liuzhouThe arrival of the various really tasty mango is an event here in South Asian community, The scent!

[Kim Shook]

CI sandwich loaf toasted – half butter, half strawberry preserves:

[blue_dolphin]

Same breakfast yesterday and today.  French baked eggs with smoked salmon and tarragon cream from Melissa Clark's Dinner in French.  The leek, tarragon and cream mixture that goes into the bottom of the ramekins is delicious.

 

Managed to overcook the eggs both times and today I overdid the toast a little, too.  Need to work on my timing 🙃 

 

The day before that, I had seafood stuffed potato balls from my freezer's panedemic stash.  

Mexican sriracha which I've been putting on everything lately from Josef Centano's cookbook Amá.

[weinoo]

 

Soft scrambled eggs with chive and scallions. A bit of comté. Toast.

[BeeZee]

Cottage cheese, peach, toasted almond slices.

 

[blue_dolphin]

Scrambled eggs, mushrooms, toasted sourdough baguette
