Egg and sausage sandwiches

Lucky George sausage, Blue Gate Eggs, Sweet to Eat English muffins. Good things.

Turkey burgers

I added a bunch of the spicy Momofuku seasoning salt to the 93% lean turkey. It was pretty good.

Classic Chicken Salad

I remembered that I worked from home. I started the chicken at the tail end of my lunch break ( I specifically walk away from the computer a bit, cause I need a break). I let run for four hours or so (the beeping continued of being “done” while I was on a conference call. I may have adjusted it a bit here or there, but it does make for a good chicken base. I suppose roasted chicken is fine too.

Chipotle Beef Chili Bowls with Lime-Cilantro Crema

Chili bowl, I guess, not really chili. I endued up using chipotle chilies and not the powder. I think it ended up a bit dryer then they intended, but with the rice, Chili-ish part and a giant dollop of sour cream, it worked out.

Korean Chicken and Rice Porridge

Thinking about this in the general frame of of risotto, which helped because I also was using Arborio rice. I get the general idea and I read how perhaps the rice grains can be ground down a bit to create I creamier outcome. I did my part of chopping the vegetables down to a small size, though not as small as they probably intended. I do like the concept of making your own version of stock (garlic, ginger, chicken), but where I became ponderous is the lack of places where salt was not suggested to be added. I would’ve thought to sweat the vegetables a bit, or in the stock, but all ad the end apparently. That is my big complaint about this. It was pretty good, simple, straight forward, strangely comforting.
