2024 - Week 9 Cooking Results

Sausage

Restocked, All pork hot dogs, good things.

Creamy Chickpea and Sweet Potato Stew

Vegetarian, a nice combination of flavors and textures. The temperature dropped midweek to be quite a bit colder than I think we all expecting after cresting tot h lower 70s. Warming and good. I ate leftovers on Saturday after taking a break from cleaning.

Brown Butter Shrimp Noodles

Ended up making this on Saturday, relatively simple to do and a decent interpretation shrimp scampi. Made after a day where I kept looking for my camera stands, so I ended up cleaning out and organizing the front hall closet. While I didn’t find what I was looking for, it does look a lot better now which is nice. After a nap, a shower, I made this up and it was pretty good.

Taco Salad

Verde Sausage, a new version from Crooked Gap, is quite nice, and is nice and stands out, but added a lot less than I normally do for the purpose. It worked out quite well. I think I need to find some other purpose for this that can allow the meat to be more forward. Good add to the line up, though as I understand it takes quite a bit more effort to make, thus a bit more cost. Worth it, good taco salad.

Grilled Cheese with Mortadella

Cheese, Mortadella, butter, and a good bread. A good standard thing.

Sous vide Pork Loin (Saturday)

Plan Changes! I’ll make this on today.
