I’ve posted about beef bourguignon in the past, but for the last couple of weeks I’ve been thinking of trying a different approach. Since this sous vide-meat kick doesn’t seem to end, I figured I’d try something fun. Making it sous vide. I was curious to see how this would turn out. I had to rearrange […]
Sous Vide Rib Eye Steak : Madeira BBQ Sauce : Navy bean puree : Ratatouille
It’s been a few weeks since my last post. I’ve been working on a few recipes that need some fine tuning and definitely some planning for when it comes to plating. Some food can be plated easily, like pasta for example. This dish I’m working on is a pasta dish, but it does not look […]
Top Sirloin “Roast” Sous Vide : 14 hour 55C-131F
Hey guys! Cold cuts, yeah! I love this stuff. Cold roast beef. Awesome. Top Sirloin makes a pretty damn good roast beef and.. add sous vide into the equation and you end up with super awesome. I’ve been meaning to do more sous vide cooking lately but I tend to get lazy.. the bag, the timing, […]
Braised Lamb Shank : Chimayó Chile Spice Blend : Cauliflower Puree : Thank you, Shanna!
This finally happened last week. First I got an email form the hotel I was staying that I had received some mail… yeah, really nice. I ran to the hotel which is a block away from my current address and picked up a letter with addresses and names written by hand…, like in the old […]
Pan Seared Duck Breast : Fermented Lettuce and Parsley “Kimchi”: Pea Shoots
So the other day, I saw some beautiful duck breasts at the store and decided to have that for dinner. I’ve been fermenting lettuce at home… and if you’ve been reading some of the previous posts, lettuce has been featured as well. So with the leftovers, I decided to make a batch of “kimchi”, I […]
Rainbow Trout : Lettuce Cream : Almonds : Hedgehog Mushrooms : Asparaguses
Finally I get the opportunity to post a fish dish on my blog. It’s been some time since I last did, and I don’t even know why. If you follow this blog, you probably know by now that this is quite a carnivorous site, and as much as I love land and flight capable animals […]
Sugar and Tamari Glazed Pork Loin : Mushroom Medley : Pickled Lettuce
Let me sound like a late night infomercial for a second here. If you ever wanted to eat like royalty but still had to cook it yourself because you aren’t royalty (maybe you are, I’m not), this dinner, if you like pork, might be the answer and it takes about 15 minutes to make. When […]
Poulet au feu D’enfer : Enoki and Shimeji Mushrooms : Sous Vide Chicken Breast
I don’t know how to speak or read french but I want to learn it. I know poulet means chicken. I also know that I adapted this recipe from The Modernist Cuisine books. Probably one of the few full recipes in the whole series that didn’t require special equipment like a laser cutter… (sure, an […]
Rabbit Ragout with Fresh Tagliatelle Pasta : Chanterelles, Olives and Pan Seared Rabbit Legs
I’m been MIA for 30 days. Long story short, I moved from Los Angeles to Vancouver. And that involved selling my condo and my car, not to mention packing some and storing the rest of all of my stuff. I realized while packing that cooking has been a big deal around here for a few […]
Waterzooi : Viszooitje : Flemish Fish Stew
Waterzooi. I’ve been looking for interesting seafood recipes. Googled this, and that. I ended up in the images section after typing fish stew (this is usually how I go about finding recipes online, don’t judge.. ok, judge), there was this pic of something that looked amazing, there were mussels, shrimp and a creamy sauce, ..oh […]
