Happy 4th!!! What Are You Cooking Up Today?
Comments (8)CG - I've tried the shrimp in those grill woks, grates, etc. and also right on the grill (Virco). I've decided I like directly on the grill better as there is less surface area to rub off any marinades, etc. I simply turn them once with tongs. Works great and removes 1 more item from cleanup. BSBBQ - I saw a commercial for Johnsonville brats. They say to boil them in beer with chopped/sliced onion and a pat of butter for 12 minutes - then finish on the grill. I'm going to try this but not sure what the butter part would add. Probably coats them a bit to help create a skin/glaze or something when on the grill? I'm now changing this thread to "What DID you cook up on the 4th". :)...See MoreRainy day baking and cooking... What are you cooking today?
Comments (24)Although it seems like a forgiving dough - I can taste that I cheated on the overnight ferment. Sorry your casserole dishes aren't big enough. I bake in a toaster oven so when my bread rises it burns on top. Another reason P a L'A is good - it spreads out more than up. I brush the bread with some slightly salty water right before it goes in the oven. But I lose that lovely floury rustic surface. Do you have a pizza stone? That helped me get a better crust back when I last had an oven - now I use it in my grill to make pitas. Also I read somewhere or another about using a SS restaurant dish lid as a cloche though I've never seen one large enough. I am currently jealously watching a neighbor build a stone wood-fired bread oven by his pond - the ultimate bread oven. He says he will advise me when I am ready to build one - and I definitely do not lack for rocks. However right now my 'yard' is festooned with logs, brush and firewood piles. Hopefully in the near future the logs will become a woodshed and I can move the firewood inside. Then maybe a bread oven - which will entail moving rocks. I'm tired just thinking about it all. Making some tea and toast and taking a nap....See MoreAre You Baking and Cooking Today?
Comments (8)Just a bit of baking here then out to the garden. I bought bananas last week and forgot them so, I made three dozen banana nut muffins. I'll share some with my neighbor and toss the rest in the freezer. There is a pot of gravy on the stove, I'll make meatballs tomorrow night. We will have spaghetti and meatballs on Wednesday. As much as I love to bake and cook I'd rather be out in the garden fussing with something. LOL...See MoreWhat's Cooking In Your Kitchen Today?
Comments (49)For the post-post-Thanksgiving dinner, I’m making clam chowder. Basic recipe, potatoes diced and parcooked in duck stock, then shallots, garlic, scallions, slivered brussel sprouts sautéed in butter, add drained potatoes, add flour and herbs/spices/S/P, add a bagful of clam meat (frozen from Asian store), a bunch of T’giving ham diced, then milk, heavy cream, some stale bread buzzed in mini-Cuisinart, and a can of sardines mashed up (since there’s no actual clam juice, I wanted something seafood-y). I can’t find Old Bay but used enough other herbs/spices to approximate it. Simmering now and will add a bunch of minced parsley for color and before serving. It tastes okay, not the best clam chowder I’ve had by some distance, but will be acceptable comfort soup....See More- 9 years ago
