Dusty Chalk Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 'Tongued like a cow' is the new 'hung like a horse'. Is it wrong that I have tongue envy? I know I'd be able to satisfy any woman with a tongue like that. & cetera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbasement Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 I just made beef liver pâté. You sure need to add a lot of spices before it tastes like anything besides liver. Will report back tomorrow, since it's supposed to chill for awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
acidbasement Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 My recipe was improvised - I used the basic method from here: http://dishbydish.net/2013/01/14/beef-liver-pate/ Then I added some curry, cumin, and dijon mustard in increasing amounts until it tasted like something I'd want on a cracker. I've got no experience with pate, but I've got a lot of liver in the freezer, so I'll probably make it a few more times unless this one turns out to be regrettable.

cetoole Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 I have a duck liver in my freezer... Try soaking it in milk overnight. Beef liver may take longer, as I presume it is larger. Jacob, when I miss one of my connecting flights through CVG with a 30 minute layover this week, you will make me a banh mi, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll try that; thanks. A beef liver is probably bigger than a couple of whole ducks. Thankfully, our butcher cut them into 1/2" slices for us.

shellylh Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 That looks really good (although I agree that it might have too much sauce). Fresh arugula is great on pizza. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutestory Posted October 6, 2013 Report Share Posted October 6, 2013 After the crazy Atelier Crenn the other night I'm back down to Earth with possibly the most serious chili dogs ever seen in the Western US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shellylh Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 Those look pretty serious but I don't see any bacon on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutestory Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 Those look pretty serious but I don't see any bacon on them. The bacon is in the chili. Along with the bratwurst. You still think I'm not serious? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cetoole Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 Earlier tonight, fried chicken. Cured 24 hours, 8 hours sous vide at 150F with butter, then patted dry, 2 of the 3 dredged in flower, egg, and panko crumbs, and then deep fried.

cutestory Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 Made real chili for a preschool parent's mixer we're having at the house tomorrow. Also made caramelized carrot soup (a la Modernist Cuisine at Home) for a nice fall starter. Seriously, caramelized carrot soup is just about the most awesome thing ever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutestory Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 I gotta get that book. It's really a must if you're into any of the fancy "modernist" cooking techniques. It's not just about immersion circulators and pressure cookers (although if you get the book you'll end up buying both if you don't already have them).

Just looked up that book and it looks very good. This and a good pressure cooker sounds like a nice Christmas gift. I'll have to start looking into pressure cookers then... any recommendations? I assume stove top is better than an electric one. My stove isn't super great at cooking really really low but I hope to get a new stove at some point.

shellylh Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 That one looks very nice! I was looking at this one which is about the same price. Have you heard of it? Maybe it is used more for canning though. What is a good size (cooking usually for 2 people)? http://www.amazon.com/All-American-921-2-Quart-Pressure/dp/B00004S88Z/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1382312316&sr=8-8&keywords=pressure+cooker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shellylh Posted October 21, 2013 Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 I live for carnitas! Ok, not quite. I'll have to try it. You should have used corn tortillas though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 These certified Angus beef ribeyes were purchased on monday afternoon and kept in the fridge still wrapped in butcher paper until today. Why do they look this way? Is this a bad thing or just not ideal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 Thanks Chef Reks! It just seems odd from the patterns and inconsistencies. Grilling within the hour! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cetoole Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 (edited) Grill away! ~24 hours of water loss uncovered in the fridge just leads to a better crust! I braised some rod cod for dinner tonight, over a sauteed onion, two heads of baby bock choy, and 3 thai chilis, with a bit of rosemary and thyme, and about half a cup of Vya dry vermouth. Absolutely delicious! Edited November 6, 2013 by cetoole 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voltron Posted November 6, 2013 Report Share Posted November 6, 2013 Is that Certified Angus Beef®? If so, that's my mom's company (well... employee #7, now retired). Do not question its quality! I'm sorry, sir, I will never question the Angus Beef® again in any way sir. [tell her my family had nothing to do with it ... please?] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
