Paid Members Gus Mears Posted August 26, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted August 26, 2019 (edited) I'm retreadingĀ old ground here, but as it's probably my favourite thing I've cooked this year, did another 24 hour pork shoulder. Same rub: brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, coriander seeds, pepper, salt, oregano, chilli flakes and liquid smoke. This time, rehydrated all the meat after finishing in the oven in the drained meat juices which I had thickened up with mustards, spices and other sauces. The feeling of the first bite into this is too lewd to type. Edited August 26, 2019 by Gus Mears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted August 31, 2019 Moderators Share Posted August 31, 2019 Tacos Carnitas with green salsa. (Blue corn tortillas because the flour was on sale. Tastes the same but doesn't look as nice).Ā Started with a 18 hour sous vide pork shoulder and went from there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members mim731 Posted September 2, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted September 2, 2019 I've done a few more bits over the last week. You'll have to excuse the poor quality of the photos. First up, more beer bread! This time using a darker, richer ale that did a treat and gave a much nicer taste. I also added chopped onions to the mix which added some extra texture and flavour. Still not 100% happy with it, but getting closer to what I'm after In addition to the bread, on Saturday morning we had chilaquiles, or an adapted version of them. Leftover tortillas cut up and fried and cooked in a tomatillo salsa. Served with feta, creme fraiche, and chopped onions, plus poached eggs.Ā Finally, a lovely asparagus, puy lentil and soft boiled egg salad with an olive oil and Dijon mustard dressing, served with lightly toasted beer bread. Really enjoyed this one and it was dead simple and a great way to use up stuff we had in the fridge, which is always a bonus. Eggs probably needed another 20 seconds or so, but it tasted nice!

Paid Members BigJag Posted September 10, 2019 Paid Members Share Posted September 10, 2019 That sounds pretty good. Did you do anything to dry out the jalapenos or just a quick drain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just drained them and added them afterwards, because not everyone likes them. Normally I will just fish them out of the jar and add them to the base sauce.

Keith Houchen Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I haven't cooked in ages, but I bought a Nakiri knife today so I can be motivated to chop up some veg. Ā Going for a Spanish quorn not chicken dish tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rey_Piste Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 For lunch I attempted the Japanese dish omu-rice. Which is basically an omelette on rice, but covered in a type of gravy or ketchup. I just used a microwave packet of rice and I overcooked the omelette a bit. It wasn't the best looking thing which is why I didn't take a picture, but the sauce definitely made it really nice. This is the recipe I followed, but being a filthy gaijin who disrespect Nihon I didn't use chopsticks. Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted September 15, 2019 Awards Moderator Share Posted September 15, 2019 That omelette-rice thing sounds gross. Like walking-in-drunk-whats-in-the-fridge food. I'm glad you liked it and even more glad you didn't share a picture of it.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The recipes and the gadget reviews anyway. They seem to film most of their lives which I'm not into. Don't know if he has a recipe for his but I just took my standard one and doubled it. Got shit loads of butter cream in the fridge if anyone wants any! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
