Bought a sous vide last week.. Megachef mc1000.. It just broke today :( Starts up warms up for maybe 5 minute and then shuts off and starts beeping :(

That said, I only have made chicken in it and it tastes amazing.

I went for more salmon this weekend too. Made my go-to recipe.

https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...2755b32474.png
Leeks are the key.
https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...bf2376a946.png
Mirepoix that shit -- don't forget to put the leeks in water to get the sand out.

Yo Brain.

Weird request: Can you take a picture of the inside of your stove, empty? I need/want to see how that one weird rack is supposed to go. I have the same stove and i can't figure out how to put that bad boy in and have it not be stupid.

Return it, get an Anova.

I have a couple hundred uses on mine and it keeps kicking. My only complaint is that it now wish i had gotten the wifi version instead of just the bluetooth, but that complaint will go away when i get around to setting up a kitchen tablet.

Wife just got confirmed a celiac disease, she gonna miss that gluten. As she is freaking out right now, I just made her a gluten free bread. Hope I can soon nail the recipe so it tastes decent.

That is a major bummer.

On the one hand, I reflect upon the fact that, by sheer coincidence, I happen to have not included breads in pretty much any of my major culinary accomplishments of late.

On the other hand, I acknowledge that I've eaten TV-station pizza for four of my last six meals.

Background: we just had a mayoral runoff election in Chicago tonight.It's been... busy in the news department.

You & I have shocking similar tastes. Also, I just noticed that we have nearly the same Frigidaire range. That name has always bothered me, as an oven is supposed to make air hot, not frigid*.

https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...f710bb83f9.png


Did the Ina Garten sauce of creme fraiche, two mustards, capers and garlic. Coated a piece of salmon, then panko. 425° for about 15 minutes. Came out a lovely, moist orange color.

Seared the asparagus in some olive oil on medium-high for about 8 minutes, tossing only twice. We want it to brown a tad.

Pro tip: try a dab of the Hollandaise on the fish.

The following message has been approved by the California State Board of Taco Management:


https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...616daed5c4.png


From the bottom-up:

  • Romaine.
  • 1/2 avocado worth of guacamole (heavy on the lime, and I also used dried minced onion, which gave a nice crunch. I did this because I was out of fresh onion, but I liked the effect and will do this again.)
  • Baby spinach.
  • 1 tilapia filet (15 minutes at 425°, then flake with a fork.)
  • The customary baja sauce (your choice of sour cream / yogurt, with cumin, dill, salt, pepper, and cider vinegar.)
  • Thinly sliced strawberries.


EDIT: I really need to invest in a small plastic squeeze bottle. The kind that taco stands use to apply the white sauce. It's difficult to get it well-distributed over an uneven base (eg: spinach and fish) with a spoon.

Still, this dish was 9/10. I've tried it a few times before, with various combinations of slaw / pickled onion / etc. The combination of spinach and strawberry just happened to work very well with all of the other ingredients.

I saw the Anova, all the reviews say it's horrible product, like wifi version is buggy as hell. Cant work if your router is 5.0/2.4ghz. Apparently there was a new update based on some reviews that forces you to link it to your facebook or some shit. I ended up getting the same kind from home depot for 70 bucks,, if it burns out again then i'll go with something else.

Chicken breast, lightly breaded and then baked. Topping is caramelized onion, garlic, sherry and thyme, then a slice of swiss.

The side is arugula, spinach and cherry tomatoes, tossed with balsamic, olive oil, and a pinch of sugar, then some crushed walnut.

S&P, toss it in a pan/skillet with some cherry tomatoes. Flip chicken, and top with garlic butter.


https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...87e452e684.png
smash the tomatoes lightly, and baste until chicken is cooked.

Tilapia Meunière:

https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...ace0e7a49c.png

One of those dishes with a fancy name that turns out to be astoundingly simple to prepare.

Lightly bread the fish. Bake until not quite done. I did 12 minutes at 425°.

Meanwhile, start to melt a few cubes of butter over very low heat in a small skillet. Add chopped parsley, salt and pepper.

When the fish is just about not quite done, turn the skillet up to medium, until the butter starts to bubble and brown. Transfer the fish to the skillet, and finish for about 1.5 minutes per side. Plate, and top with the pan leavings.

That's it. 15 minutes to a classic French dish that tastes simply amazing.

Sometimes you just want simple, non-gourmet yumminess.

https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mia...aa750eff20.png

The chicken is rubbed with your favorite spice blend, and placed on a baking sheet.

The broccoli is tossed with melted butter, salt and pepper, then placed on the same sheet, then sprinkled with Romano.

Bake about 18 minutes at 425°.

Top the broccoli with a bit of cheddar, and the chicken with a drizzle of store-bought BBQ sauce, then some crispy fried onions.

Not exactly Julia Child, but nice.

Braineack 04-24-2019 09:57 AM

omg, i made chicken and broccolini last night... but my chicken was lightly floured, pan fried, and smothered in a garlic shallot butter gravy and the broccolini was topped with parmesan reggiano.
