What's cooking?

Has it been 4 hours yet?

 

This evening I took possession of a new commercial microwave (chef Mike as Knyfenerd says). So I took all the crumbs from the bottom of a tortilla chip bag, poured them into a ramekin, mixed in some pre-shredded cheese, then topped it with some more. Once I was done heating it up for 42 seconds, I took just the juice from some salsa and drizzled it on top. I then consumed this inglorious meal.

(no pictures available, but I can recreate it in about 1.5 minutes)

k.

 

That sounds like us at work... we take the left over mashed potatoes and some of the leftover cream corn or the cream spinach and top it with the soup du jour because it all gets tossed at the end of the night but we don't pay for it so hey.. E-Meal is on!

 

PDG!

 

Nice! Much better than my lunch today.

And who is that ugly guy with the reflection in the tin of hot sauce?

 

How was the ride home? sleepy I bet. :thumb

 

I can't believe I didn't sleep through my stop.

 

Lmao

 

My better half and I both worked late last night, so we had breakfast for dinner. It's what we had in the house, and it was quick/easy. Portobello mushroom and black forest ham frittata, sausage, and sharp Vermont aged cheddar on Trader Joe's biscuits (*gasp*... but they're really good)

 

Steak tartare:

 

Quick stir fry tonight

 

Nothing too fancy, chorizo egg and bean sprout stir fry

 

before

 

Hong Kong style Chinese sausage clay pot rice.
first, cook rice with cured meat, 2 different kind of Chinese sausage in clay pot.....
than, cut all sausages, mix with leek, Shaohsing wine & homemade Hong Kong style sweet soy sauce

 

I love the after pic. The look on his face says "I'm absolutely stuffed to the gills, but I don't know when I'm going to see a spread like this again, so I'm going to keep on eating until I burst."

 

Note to self: investigate Hong Kong style sweet soy sauce.


Jeff the ribs look great.

 

it is quite easy to make- 1(soy sauce):1 (water):1(surge), 4 pieces Star anise, 1~2 piece Cinnamon stick & 1 green onion
boiling all ingredient for few minuts....done!
Hong Kong style sweet soy sauce go well with all Chinese BBQ, but not match up good with any western & Japanese foods I know of.

 

Charles what is "surge" Thank you for the help BTW!

 

6 Venison Roasts, 4 Bison Roasts at a Game Dinner today Happy to get some knife time in!

 

Regrettably, no pictures, as it was a very attractive plate, but tonight was a pork loin with my own dry rub on the Kamado & grilled asparagus w/olive oil, sea salt and just a sprinkle of garlic on the Weber. Mrs. Mountaineer contributed oven roasted red potatoes.
