2015 - Week 38 Cooking Results
Hamburgers (Friday we vaguely debated going to get some, but had eggs, since I didn't feel like really cooking)
So the issue with buying ground beef directly from the source, is that you can never be quite sure of the fat content of the beef. You can make guesses based on the breed of cow, and the general diet of the cow, but that only gets so far. So I've been added a bit of fat (usually rendered from bacon) to burgers to get the fat content level up a bit. It really does make the burger taste quite good, but you have to have a gentle hand when doing this. I think I got it about right. But of course I didn't actually measure it, so that wasn't super helpful.
Tomato, mozzarella, pepperoni and greens on sourdough toasts
This came to me while I was walking through the market. I actually went back to the Cheese Shop's stand to pick up some mozzarella. I used what was left of the sourdough from Joseph's Wild Yeast Bakery, some tomatoes from Cleverley Farms. Good stuffs for using up some leftovers. Made for a good quick dinner.
Chicken and Corn Chowder with Sweet Potatoes
Delayed until today.
Spiced Pork Loin with roasted potatoes
Roasted the chopped pork loin with the potatoes, with some spices that I can't remember what they are now (but felt right at the time). Turned out pretty good.
Green Onion Sausage Pasta
Quick, delicious, nom nom.
