2019 - Week 52 Cooking Results

Spicy-Sweet Sambal Pork Noodles

I do like this quite a bit. Even though it’s very meaty. Maybe I’ll need to find something to replace the pork with? Beans? Something. I suppose beans cooked in the simmering reducing broth would be flavorful, though the process would clearly have to change, and you would miss some of the texture of the pork and the exuded fat. This is worth thinking about.

Skillet Turkey Burgers

I was tired, we ordered out. Delayed!

Fish

Mom Blocklinger got me the vacuum sealer, so I got to use this for the first time. I added salt and pepper to the tuna, dropped them in the pre-cut bag and sealed them up. I got a minor kick out of watching it seal up. The benefit here is that they easily stay under the water, as opposed to my less than careful method, where there is usually some air in there. I often would put in a mason jar, filled with water, just to hold the bags in place. So clip and bag and time. It turned out pretty well. I don’t think I seared them long enough at the end, but again mostly a a success and a vacuum sealer (woo).

Spicy Chocolate Milk–Simmered Chicken

I apparently over planned for this week, so Delayed!
