Cookin again

[prabe]

I cut myself like once every year or two, just to keep myself in practice. I work really, really slowly: If I'm using a recipe that involves a lot of cutting in the prep, I double the prep time in my planning.

I also have access to something called a “food processor” that I bust out for certain applications.

We have one, too, but we don't use it as much as we probably should. We don't pre-prep the way you do (because we don't--yet--have that kind of freezer space) and cooking for two it's rare that we have enough to justify it. OTOH, I wouldn't want to try to make, e.g., chile verde without it.

That's cheating.

I prefer to do most things by hand. I'll busy out an eggbeater to whip cream.

Wife uses the electric one.

If the cat hears the glass cutting board he comes bowling in.

Yeah, I don’t use mine like I could because of “cheating”, too.

But of course, there’s things I cook that is saves me hours of work.

Would you eat this? 15:00 mark




He went out and found cockles and cooked them up with pasta.

Pass from me shellfish meh.

Dolphins 13:00 mark. Sigh.

One week to ANZAC weekend trip.

Would totally eat that. I make something similar myself, but haven’t tried it with live mollusks- hard to come by in landlocked Dallas/Ft. Worth.

I bought a. Lodge10" carbon steel pan. Jury is still out but Im leaning towards it vs. my cast iron. Initial analysis is it heats quick and even.

I didn’t know Lodge did anything other than cast iron.

I think its a new thing, within last 5 years.
