2020 - Week 29 Cooking Results

Spaghetti Alla Carrettiera

Decided against this! I got confused as to the days of the week since I was off on Monday.

Cemita Burger With Refried Beans, Chipotle Mayo, Avocado, and Oaxacan Cheese

Followed this for the most part, made the parts, may not have mad as flat a burger as called for. Ended up putting it on sourdough, which was pretty good. I did melt the cheese over the burgers, which I don’t normally do (I don’t like fully melted cheese for good cheese). And though a bit messy, it was a good flavor combination.

Spiced Chickpeas Gyros with Tahini Yogurt

The texture was ok. I’m sure they don’t mean it to be smooth like hummus, because they used a potato masher, but maybe something more then not gritty, but something similar to that. It was ok.

Seattle Chicken Teriyaki

So I suspect the chicken would’ve turned out better had I actually cooked them over a fire. Allowing the excess liquid to drip away. I suppose I could’ve used a half sheet pan with a grate to have the same effect, now that I think about this. But I cooked them in skillets in the oven (my 12” skillet was still dirty and going through the dishwasher again). But even so it tasted pretty good. Simple over rice.

Taco Salad

Good as always.
