2018 - Week 50 Cooking Results

Bangers & Mash, apprently I don’t have bangers…

Chatted with Jason from Lucky George, and They’re all out for a bit (til early spring) of the specialty sausages. So I was unable to fulfill this dining request from Shannon.

Sheet-Pan Mac & Cheese With Pumpkin & Brown Butter

This was interesting. Under cooked noodles, then breadcrumbs to make crispy top, cooked in a half sheet pan to create a crispy bottom. Fascinating concept on making it. Attention to detail on pan and pot reduction and all that. Good meal. Will have to do this again.

Sous Vide fish (serious eats as a guide)

Heats water, keeps timing, holds at a temp. Flaky fish. So this was ridiculously easy way to cook fish. I’m often not paying fully attention to cooking and fish goes from done to over done to way over done pretty quickly. This was a simple sort of thing. I used a couple of zipper top bags, salt, pepper a bit of butter and pretty much done. I like that the app told me about how much time was left til the water temp was right, then swaps right into cooking mode.

Mayo-Free Chicken Salad With Kimchi, Ginger, and Scallions Recipe

I adjusted this a bit, and did add mayo, so this really wasn’t a legit expression of this. I thought the Mayo and Kim Chi and chicken was pretty good though

Hamburgers (Lucky George)

Yeah…the smoke alarm got angry at me. I need a vent fan.

Taco Salad

Simple, quick, good.
