Needed some comfort food tonight - but family was not in the mood for neither German not Japanese, sooo …

 

„Sichuan“ dinner:

 

IMG_1418.thumb.jpeg.2d1f5f3775fe57d5f054d7135963b4ea.jpeg

 

Da pan ji (大盘鸡)- ok, technically more of a Xinjiang dish, but the flavor profile matches pretty well …

 

IMG_1419.thumb.jpeg.23a667a763656d7db2809825876065e7.jpeg

 

Mapo dofu (麻婆豆腐)(with extra Sichuan peppercorn oil) …

 

IMG_1420.thumb.jpeg.69ca32f2a8e63e1e5ba8fb39f77fae0c.jpeg

 

Hot & sour soup (酸辣湯 - suan la tang) …

 

IMG_1421.thumb.jpeg.302dcc718514fd9c6686f35e338b54ae.jpeg

 

Yangzhou fried rice (揚州炒飯) …

 

IMG_1422.thumb.jpeg.16f1896b3080572c7a00fbd003375468.jpeg

 

And finally - as per little ones request - bao zi (包子)…

 

IMG_1423.thumb.jpeg.ea98f4bb19f440cba27a64aa3d7e6f37.jpeg

 

Perfect accompaniment 🤗

 

IMG_1425.thumb.jpeg.cd2d9eaa15bbbf7bdc0da15da321dbdb.jpeg

 

No complaints. Ohh - and we have sufficient leftovers for the rest of the week 😉

Hospital dinner. A bit strange

 

 

 

Beef, pork, potato (I think), luffah, cabbage, chilli, peanuts, rice.

 

Not bad though.

 

 

Hope you are only in the hospital for follow-up work and not a relapse. Look forward to the day when you will be back on your feet and cooking!

Hahaha … no worries. It looks a little bit different every time I make it, so there could have been an underlying change in recipe 🙏

Not a relapse or follow up, but a different issue. Not so serious. Thank you.

A light supper for the post Thanksgiving taper😛.  Two dozen oysters and a bowl of gumbo.   The gumbo used SV turkey leg quarters and homemade andouille sausage.   The oysters were the best of the year - briny, fat and a steal at $15.99 for two dozen.

Trying to empty the freezer so some chili dogs.  Two things out.

Eci9Ov2.jpg

 

Was the first meal in one of the new Falk pans.  Had the range apart cleaning it to list it for sale.

Rest of the kitchen is pretty much ripped out.  Gave it to my BIL for the shop on his farm.  No stove there so kept the range, but the surrounding granite was useful for him.  Sad to see the Bluestar go, but the three hours of cleaning to get it to look like that is exactly why it is going.

that looks like a wonderful Thanksgiving spread.

 

well thought out

 

the breast meat seems to have two different colors for the two different great muscles.

 

the larger a bit darker redish

 

what sort of bird did you purchase ?

 

did you notice any difference in flavor for each Br muscle ?

Sounds intriguing, can you elaborate?

Absolutely - they are so good and it's nice to free up the stove top or oven space.  Here you go.  Keep in mind that you can adjust the sweetness by reducing the amount of brown sugar called for in the recipe.  I know that my preferred sweet potato level of sweetness is too much for some folks.  I'm one of those plebeians who loves the marshmallow-topped ones! 😁

Turkey soup for supper, stock/ broth made from meaty turkey bones in the IP.

Besides the turkey, the very last gleanings from the garden, kale, chard, sorrel, and from the pantry, peas, beans and tubettini pasta.

Dessert was a pear, apple cranberry galette with chopped walnuts.

My dinner last night was quick tuna salad -- but not that kind of quick tuna salad.
