OP will you please make patti bilini sometime?

Eating dindins right now, but will post it ITT soon. A foreshadowing: I'm from Italy (living in US tho). I'd heard my entire life that certain pastas go with certain condiments and don't work well other toppings.
I always thought it was bullshit, but my meal tonight has proved otherwise. Still edible. Still delicious. But the pasta I used (because I was too lazy to go into the basement to get the right one) just doesn't pair well with the condiment. The look and texture/"mouthfeel" is all wrong. I'll show y'all momentarily.

Mixed with cooked capellini. And that's the wrong choice. The dish looks dry even though I used the same amount as I would have had I used the wider pasta traditional to this dish. If my understanding is correct, the smaller width of the capellini creates more surface area for the sauce to adhere to, making it look drier and feel less saucy as you eat it.
Still good, tho. Just not as good as it would have been had I just used the regular stuff.

>>9182844

I like kraut mashed potatoes with some kielbasa and spicy mustard, but I don't do much in the way of seasoning other than the potatoes. Throw sauerkraut in the pan with the kielbasa and cook until it's tender while I get the taters ready for mashin', then pull out the kielbasa and slice it up. Potatoes on the plate, kraut on top, then fry up my sausage to get some color on it and dip that into the mustard.

Do onions match well with the sauerkraut? What else could you put in there? I'm interested because that's actually what I was thinking I'd make for dinner tonight.

>>9194545
I like the onions and garlic with it, butbI don't use a lot. The carraway and celery seed seem to give it more depth. I'm getting ready to plate it as soon as the potato pancake is done.

Spinach, bell pepper, mushroom, onion and chicken stir fry,

Turned out well, never used spinach in a stir fry before but it was great, should have put the peppers in a little latter to save the crunch.

plus I didn't have any rice vinegar so i used lemon.

all in all 7.5/10

And now we're left with a hilariously bad plating shot. Served with a green sauce that was basically pureed jalapeno/sour cream/cilantro/chicken stock.

Wasn't pretty, but it sure was tasty.

>>9202015

you can't fucking overcook shrimp retard

>>9202028
I'm pretty sure this is a quick bait/troll attempt, but I'll go ahead and give you a (You).

Shrimp are one of the easiest things to accidentally overcook, much like scallops, and in both cases, overcooking them is definitely undesirable. They have a significantly different texture if you have 'em on the heat for too long.

You need to fumigate if your neighbors really were infested like that. Pack up your cats, take a day out, and set off the bombs, or you'll never be on top of that.

>>9203301
This.

Seriously, OP, fellow Houstonian here. I've seen the cuckroaches. You need to fumigate your place, and spray the perimeter.

In fact, this is why I don't do apartments anymore. I rent rooms out of big nice houses these days, because apartments are shit, and you pay way too much.

$600, all bills paid to live in a big nice two-story house in an affluent neighborhood.

>>9214261
I used bone in chops, since thats the cut i usually used when I country fry pork chops. Cut out the bones for the broth and just cut the chops into bite sized pieces. Marinated and fried the pork in the traditional way chicken karaage is usually done: sesame oil, sake, soy sauce, ect. And fried with potato flour after marinating.

I saw carbonara in the thread and I figured it would make a great easy weeknight meal.

For two:
>thick chopped bacon (didn't have panchetta or cheek) goes into warm olive oil until barely crispy on the edges
>2 eggs and 1 egg yolk whisked with plenty of good parmesan, a bit of parsley and plenty of black pepper
>no fucking cream, asshole
>boil pasta with salt (no oil goes in the pot, I used fettuccine because it's what I had on hand)
>let the bacon cool a bit, shouldn't be still frying here:
>pour your pasta over the bacon, give it a mix, pour your egg/cheese mixture over, and mix very well for a minute or two.
>the egg should not scramble; it should just form a smooth glaze around the noodles as the cheese melts
>garnish with a bit of parmesan, black pepper, and parsley
>>9213754
Those eggs look perfect, and that broth looks tasty as hell.

Back again finally. I'll have a few things to post over the course of the day today, starting off with a beet dish.

Got some gorgeous little tiny baby beets of a few different varieties (candy stripe, golden, forono) at the market.

>>9221310
Roasted the forono beets, steamed the candy stripes, and boiled then pickled the golden beets using a malt vinegar based pickling liquid. I also left some of the candy stripes aside to shave raw at the end- it really showcases their stripes.

Got some beautiful fresh blackcurrants also, and pureed some of them down with a touch of lemon, salt, and sugar, and glazed some of the regular blackcurrants with that puree. Also toasted and crushed some hazelnuts.

Added on a vinaigrette made from malt vinegar I cold-infused with aniseseed and licorice root, as well as salt, non-diastatic malt powder (imagine the malt flavor in a malted milkshake, but as a powder), and a touch of cold pressed canola oil, then went on with some aged goat cheese.

Drinking some beer at the moment. Not a new picture but it's the same beer- kriek aged for 2 years in cabernet sauvignon barrels. It's pretty damn agreeable stuff.

Me too mate, they're really incredible ingredients. Getting to work with beets this nice is especially awesome, they're super sweet and their tiny size means they look way nicer on the plate, you can leave them whole or halve them rather than having to cut them up too much. Looks a lot more natural.

Next up I've got two dishes made from pic related, some absolutely gorgeous fresh wild caught sockeye salmon. Look at the fucking color on that- that's what you want to see when you buy salmon, none of that pale pinkish bullshit.

Did one raw preparation and I have a cooked preparation working away right now.

Skinned the smaller piece and gave it a very quick (9 minutes) dry cure just to season it and slightly firm up the outside. Literally just packed it in salt with a bit of sugar and let it sit, then rinsed the cure off when the time was done. Came out a noticeably different texture even in that time- tighter, a little firmer. Great technique for raw fish preparations.

Toasted off a bunch of black sesame seeds and pureed them down with a bit of sesame oil, salt, a touch of sugar, and some lemon. Upended a ramekin over the plate and used it to create a ring, which I kinda fucked up because the ramekin suctioned on to the plate and was a bit hard to pull off.

Realize I fucked up and missed a picture... oh well.

Dish gets shaved chilies, chiffonade of mint and purple basil, and a seaweed and burnt lemon liquid (basically dulse, kombu, wakame, and nori steeped into a mix of salt, sugar, rice vinegar, and water, then finished with the burnt lemon juice). The ring of sesame puree kept the seaweed liquid in nicely, but the dish also got lightly dressed wedges of cucumber that I had to re-plate for and then forgot to take a picture of. So just... imagine they're there, I guess.

Regardless, the dish was tasty as fuck. Really fresh, clean flavors, the salmon came out great, the sesame added some depth and richness to it, the seaweed and caramelized lemon really played well together... overall I was really happy. Kicking myself for missing that picture though, the dish looks much better and makes more sense with the cucumber on.

>>9221423
sockeye 6.jpg looked better
sockeye 7.jpg is a bit too busy

Putting half as shit from 6 to 7 would be better visually

>>9221428
Yeah like I said it makes more sense re-plated, there's more stuff to ground all the garnish, but I forgot to retake the picture. As far as eating it goes, the amount of herbs and such on it was the right amount, you get a little bit of mint and basil with every bite which is what I was going for.

100% agreed that picture looks kind of shit though, don't know how I forgot the cucumbers the first time.

>>9221457
The problem is that all the shit there really obscures the outlines of the sesame circle which is one of the main points of its visual appeal apart from the vibrant salmon.

>>9221491
Yeah. When I work on this dish next I'll change how I organize that part, probably use the herbs to dress the cucumbers or something that'll keep them a little tidier. Plating definitely needs some figuring on this, but I was super happy with the dish overall, very little needs changing in terms of how the dish eats. Just needs to look tighter, which is an easy fix.

Coffee cookie guy here. They set really well for day 2, it's like a piece of cookie cake kinda. Really tasty.

Just finished a batch of "6 spice" oatmeal raisin cookies. Cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger I've used plenty, but these also had cayenne and cumin. Really interesting flavor! Can't wait for them to fully set to try the finished product.

Funnel cake sundae

>>9234639
fuck Freddie's

I went to the one on Dairy Ashford last Sunday, got a chicago-style dog and a burger. It was all dry, clearly not fresh, fries were cold and soft.

I would totally give it a pass if it was low-tier fast food prices, but that shit was more expensive than going to Whataburger, so I can't imagine I'll be back there again.

>>9234988
m8 it must depend on location cuz all 3 of us decided it was a great burger and the icecream funnel cake was dangerously good, like ill probably recreate it

>>9234639

I love getting the normal Freddy's with green chilis. The fries are fantastic.

What's the best dessert to get there? The couple I had were just ok.

My issue not considering what could have been an off-day for that location is that for a burger+fries+sundae, you're looking at >$15, which...might as well go to a local place at that point, considering I can go get a big pizza that's good for 2-3 meals and a pint of strong ale for less than $12 there.

>>9203230
I've been meaning to try that place. Would you say it's one of the better burgers in Houston?

>>9235666
i guess it was like 12.50 and not lying it was one of the better burgers ive had recently, also we were already drunk lol

>>9235664
only the second time going there but that dessert i got was friggin too good, not even shilling

>>9235682
there are a lot of good burger joints around but its def a good burger, they have a dank beer selection too, like 99 taps.

You are the reason why I think the working classes should be whipped harder.

>>9238389
What do you mean by "working class"? Are you saying it's better to not have a job? Or are you implying that my job consists of unskilled work or manual labor? What does the food have to do with a class of people? If my current life situation doesn't fit your view of what "working class" is, are you just going to find some other way to insult me?

I suspect your hasty profiling of me is wildly inaccurate.

Promised you a cooked preparation of this salmon also and then never posted it, so here it is. Gave the salmon a quick low-strength brine like I did with my dry braised octopus dish a while back- 2.5% for 2 hours.

Also got some Tokyo Negi leeks, which are extremely mellow, deeply flavored, tender leeks that are absolutely amazing to work with. I confited them for about 5 hours then smoked them, which gives them an incredible sweet-savory character and lots of depth.

>>9248338
Also got some beautiful little white eggplants, which I halved, cross-hatched, and salted to draw out excess moisture and bitterness (not that they had much of that), then deeply seared and roasted down and pureed with some creme fraiche.

Pan roast the salmon, with the sear almost entirely on the skin side to make sure it got nice and crispy. Put down the caramelized eggplant puree, the confited/smoked leeks, some blanched fava beans, and then the salmon which I finished with a touch of maldon salt.

Really happy with the cook on that, it's about medium rare-medium which is exactly what you want for good quality salmon imo. The fibers are now distinct- you can see the structure just starting to flake when it's cut, as opposed to actually raw salmon which can be cut in perfectly straight, smooth lines- but it's super juicy and tender.

Finished the dish with a vinaigrette made from calamansi juice and zest, green plum juice, salt, and a touch of oil.

Next dish is another potato dish. I really enjoyed centering a dish around potatoes previously (when I poached them in beeswax)- they can be amazing ingredients and they go super unappreciated. Got some gorgeous little baby potatoes in a few colors here- put a fork down beside them to show how tiny they really are.

Also got some little baby red onions, about the size of shallots, with the stems/leaves still on. Those I halved, seared in a hot skillet, then slowly roast down with some butter and aromatics and finished with some Pedro Ximenez sherry.

I confited the potatoes with some aromatics (peppercorns, bay, thyme) until very tender, let them cool in the oil, then marinated them for a few hours in sea salt and 30 year old sherry vinegar.

Finished the dish with a 'gremolata' of sorts made from crushed roasted hazelnuts, crispy fried shallots, chiffonade watercress, lemon zest, and minced sultanas, as well as some lightly dressed watercress.

The dish is pretty simple in terms of the number of ingredients on it but it came out tasting pretty damn good.

>>9248434
that looks really good, btw where do you find your specialty ingredients? like i've never seen that type of onion before

The leeks i got at an asian grocer, but most of my stuff I get from the local farmer's market. Generally I go every friday or saturday first thing in the morning, get whatever looks particularly good to me, figure out a dish or two to make from it, then go from there.

>so do black sesame seeds taste any different than normal ones?
the taste is slightly different but you probably wouldn't notice unless you were looking for it. check an asian/indian market if there's one nearby for the black

this is that attention whore from a while ago

One more dish until next week. Got a nice little rabbit at the market. A lot of people are averse to eating rabbits- probably because they're cute, and people are weird about cute food- but they're delicious, super lean, and incredibly friendly to the environment as far as farming animals for meat goes. They're also a real pest in some places, so there's that.

Anyway, took Mr. Bun's legs off and then took the saddle off in one piece (saddle is loins + tenderloins + belly, basically all the meat off the torso of the animal).

>>9254059
After to go with that before. Made a chanterelle mushroom duxelles, wilted down some chard, butterflied the loins so they'd lay a bit more flat and give me a more even structure when rolled, seasoned both sides of the saddle, lined the inside with the chard leaves, spread on the duxelles, and then rolled the saddle up around it. Torchoned it nice and tight and left it in the fridge overnight to sort of seal together. If you're doing a rolled preparation like a galantine or whatever, this is a really good idea. Works even better if you have some transglutaminase to bind the roll together, but alas i don't. At home at least.

Made rabbit stock from the roasted bones of the rabbit, plus caramelized mirepoix, smoked leek tops, bay, thyme, and a touch of tarragon, then mixed that stock 80/20 with 30 year old dry oloroso sherry and reduced it by half, then steeped in a bunch of dried chanterelles. This became the braising liquid for the rabbit's legs, which I cooked down at 225F until super tender.

Once that was done and my accompaniments were mostly ready, I slowly roasted the rolled saddle down and then finished it with a good sear in a hot skillet on all sides.

Purple cauliflower puree down, as well as some grilled garlic scapes- basically the flower stalk of the garlic plant. Like all alliums, it gets a lot mellower and sweeter with some caramelization to it.

Lightly cured some pattypan squash (halved, cross-hatched, rubbed in a bunch of salt mixed with a bit of sugar and left it for 6 hours) then seared in a hot skillet. Put that down as well as a nice thick slice of the rabbit saddle galantine.

>>9254081
...and image limit hit. I'll post the rest of the dish in the next thread I guess.

At any rate, I put the braised legs on as well as some roast Avalanche beets (pure white beets), some sauteed chanterelles, some caramelized yoghurt (basically you put some thick plain yoghurt in a jar, into a water bath, and then bake it in a low oven for about 36 hours- it comes out separated but it's turned a nice deep caramel brown and develops this incredible complex flavor. Season and then blend thoroughly with a little bit of uncooked yoghurt to smooth it back out). Strained the braising liquid, reduced it down to a jus consistency, and finished it by mounting it with some chilled brown butter. Finished the dish with some maldon salt and some shaved raw purple cauliflower.
