You Put WHAT in This?!?: August 2008
http://youputwhatinthis.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
You Put WHAT in This? Taking a culinary bullet for you. Saturday, August 30, 2008. My New Family Member. In any event, I decided to invest in a proper, quality cook's knife. A little research and I settled on Global as the one I wanted. It may or may not be as good as the Wusthof brand, but it's a little cheaper and I'm not a serious cook anyway. Plus, I like the way the handle looks. But I still love my new Global. I may name it. Hell, I may even baptize it. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

You Put WHAT in This?!?: Cocoa Sauerkraut Cookies
http://youputwhatinthis.blogspot.com/2008/10/cocoa-sauerkraut-cookies.html
You Put WHAT in This? Taking a culinary bullet for you. Sunday, October 19, 2008. 1 C unsweetened cocoa powder. 1 T baking powder. 1 1/2 tsp baking soda. 3/4 tsp. salt. 3 3/4 C. flour. 1 1/2 C. shortening (or unsalted butter). 1 T vanilla (or coconut extract). 1 lb canned sauerkraut. 2 C (12-oz. bag) chocolate chips (optional). Rinsing the sauerkraut for the 3rd time. Of course, there's the real question - how do they taste? That's certainly an interesting idea! October 20, 2008 at 2:49 PM.

You Put WHAT in This?!?: Stewed Lemon Chicken - Attempt #2
http://youputwhatinthis.blogspot.com/2009/07/stewed-lemon-chicken-attempt-2.html
You Put WHAT in This? Taking a culinary bullet for you. Friday, July 24, 2009. Stewed Lemon Chicken - Attempt #2. For my second attempt at using preserved lemons, I went back to a simpler recipe: one whole chicken in a crockpot. This time I was looking to avoid the overpowering flavor of the olives and bringing out the lemons more. I wasn't feeling particularly adventurous this time, so I stuck with flavors that I knew would work with chicken and lemon: just some fresh rosemary and garlic. Nine hours lat...

You Put WHAT in This? Taking a culinary bullet for you. Tuesday, August 18, 2009. Preserved Lemons #3 - Haddock En Papillote. I was pondering how to use my preserved lemons to make a fish dish, and I happened to watch an episode of "Top Chef: Masters", which just wrapped up, where one of the cheftestants was inspired by the concept of "Mystery" to make a fish dish en papillote. Note: None of the measurements in this are very precise; it's a very flexible, forgiving recipe). I finished it off by pouring a...

You Put WHAT in This?!?: January 2009
http://youputwhatinthis.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
You Put WHAT in This? Taking a culinary bullet for you. Tuesday, January 6, 2009. The marinade itself was easy to make, but I think the next time I won't even bother with the gravy, because that was kind of a pain to make. Basically you mix a few crushed garlic cloves with thyme, and equal amounts of vodka and olive oil. The steak needs to marinate for a few hours, so I prepared it a day in advance. This is one SHINY steak, isn't it? Smells really good with the garlic and oil, though. Links to this post.

You Put WHAT in This?!?: Cooking with Heart
http://youputwhatinthis.blogspot.com/2009/08/cooking-with-heart.html
You Put WHAT in This? Taking a culinary bullet for you. Thursday, August 6, 2009. And I don't mean that in a "taste the love, hootie-hoo" kind of way, either. Valentine's Day 2007 found me in a particularly black mood. I decided to celebrate the holiday of love by taking one of it's most beloved symbols - the heart - and doing something special with it. I purchased a nice two-pound heart from the grocery store (you can see in the picture the valves were trimmed out - are we hungry yet? Beef heart is actu...

You Put WHAT in This? Taking a culinary bullet for you. Monday, July 27, 2009. Not a problem. as long as you don't mind the underside being a blotchy white and yellow mess of hard-cooked yolk, the casualty of never being able to lift it quickly and cleanly enough to keep the still-raw yolk from sliding right off the spatula, and swan-diving to its splattery end in the skillet, leaving me to gently lay the cooked portion still on my spatula over it like a burial shroud. Look at it. Not a blemish, not ...

You Put WHAT in This?!?: June 2008
http://youputwhatinthis.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
You Put WHAT in This? Taking a culinary bullet for you. Thursday, June 26, 2008. So, what's going in this? Obviously, it became immediately clear to my mom that she had to protect her own health and squash whatever desire to cook that I had, at least for the time being. So, she hit on an ingenious little clause for me: anything I cooked, I had to clean the dishes afterward. And, I hated doing dishes, so I wound up cooking about once a year until I was in high school. Links to this post.

You Put WHAT in This?!?: Moroccan Chicken with Preserved Lemons
http://youputwhatinthis.blogspot.com/2009/07/moroccan-chicken-with-preserved-lemons.html
You Put WHAT in This? Taking a culinary bullet for you. Sunday, July 12, 2009. Moroccan Chicken with Preserved Lemons. This was the first recipe that I used my preserved lemons on, which is courtesy of the Epicurious website - you can read the whole recipe here. I'm thinking this is actually a pretty common recipe, because I looked at about six different versions of the recipe before settling on this one. The others either asked for ingredients I didn't have. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Alexa Gra...
