Cooking

Cold somen with ume to combat this weather-

I attempted to make mille feuille nabe which is basically like a layer of meat and a layer of nape cabbage.

I have yet to cook it but I’ll will post back here when I do!!

Pan seared cod in a garlic lemon butter demi glaze

Smoked yardbird. Spatchcocked & split, with backbone thrown on to include with saved bones for soup later. Smoked fast & hot, 350-450°F, using hickory. Usually use cherry or apple for poultry, but hickory was what I had available. Tasty, but confirmed I prefer fruitwood for lighter meats. Glazed with a sauce of orange marmalade, soy, garlic, fish sauce, adobo chili, and balsamic. Served with corn on the cob roasted in smoker in a foil packet, and a chunky summer tomato-cucumber salad.

I really want to try and make beef noodle soup but I know it’s going to be quite the work. So I’ll make my way up there eventually.

Whats a recipe you want to make in the future ?

Steamed freshly caught seabass, so good.

Not a flattering picture but I’ve been obsessed with brussel sprouts and roasting them in the oven with a little garlic powder and black pepper

Made steak with garlic yesterday! I wanted some greens but didn’t have brussel sprouts so I made Caesar salad instead. Of course can’t forget an egg which I splashed with a bit of soy sauce.

So good I had to take a bite first aha!!

Any one have a good recipe for tiramisu? Preferably an easy recipe for a person who is terrible at dessert dishes?

Starting this week with some garlic butter noodles. What protein do you think would go good?

Supporting Team USA with a fruit tart

I made Abruzzo style roasted tomato Barramundi with parsley and garlic bread.

Today’s lunch Influenced by all the pizza posts

Central market had 6 different varieties of oysters on sale for $1 each. Bought two of each. F’ing love oysters.

Simple spaghetti with olive oil and fresh chopped tomatoes, garlic and parsley topped with Tuscan seared pork.

Homemade pizza part 2: this time our toppings were mushroom, pepperoni, and spinach.

Much better hold this time!

Simple southern summertime meal.

Veg stew with smoked pork, fresh tomatoes, and Southern cornbread.

Decided to make a good ol cheese steak sandwich. I prefer my beef to not be chopped up and I LOVE using sweet onion.

I also prefer my bread to be a little toasty but not too toasty where the roof of your mouth is scrapped off.

Do you like your cheesesteak protein chopped or sliced ?

One of my friends made pizza for us. I never knew toppings play a huge role in the stability and weight of the pizza for lack of better term.

The dough and sauce was made from scratch. We put sausage, mushroom, and pepperoni on the pizza. But as you can tell, we left it in there a little too long

I made a rice cooker recipe for chicken and rice. Was supposed to have ginger but I didn’t have any at the time.

I seasoned the chicken with garlic, oyster sauce, soy sauce and pepper. For the rice, you cook it in chicken broth/stock.

I think I know a few adjustments I would make like possibly less chicken stock since the rice was softer than I would want it to be. But overall it was good !

Recently tried out this flatbread with peaches, prosciutto and mozzarella

Doesn’t look the best but I tried a new recipe today. Have yall heard of beef wrapped around enokki mushroom? I love enokki mushroom because they give such a nice and pleasing crunch. If you know, you know

What new recipes are yall trying recently ?

How do you guys like to make your orange chicken? Stove, oven or air fryer

I feel like pan frying the chicken is the best way I get it crunchy without having an air fryer. I really do need to invest in an air fryer lol

Anyone have a good recipe for japchae ?

It's been so humid and warm these past days, I really need to find a good recipe to make broth for cold noodles

Has anyone ever used this kit? Trying to find new inspiration. I just add udon or some form of noodles to it with leftover veggies and protein.
Found out from a few coworkers that some people despise tofu. What are your thoughts on tofu?

My third try of cheesecake, so thought of mango flavor to compliment the hot summer
