Tonight’s dinner was a trial run of #ChefsPlate, a meal kit service that I’m doing a trial run of.

Nudelauflauf: made with ricciarelle noodles (a bit like skinny lasagna).
Remembered the trick of using a box grater to grate fresh tomatoes, made a very garlicky sauce, then put in cooked noodles and broiled with raclette on top.
It’s #pickling season! Trying out my new Kraut Source fermentation lid. Cabbage, radishes, and carrots.
I had sourdough bread success today. I’ll take it.
And so it begins. Bought the sous vide machine that Jae told me I should get.
First time recipe: Pork Steak.
I should log my epic sandwich from yesterday’s lunch. Sourdough from Tall Shadow breads, polish mayo, pickle slice, Roma tomato, havarti, and salami.
Spicy udon bowl for lunch today. Onions, ginger, garlic, some diced red peppers & carrots I had laying around. Diced Roma tomatoes. Miso. Soy Sauce. Samba Oelek. Rice vinegar.
The funky liquid leftover from lemony pickled cabbage with some dried chilies added 🌶 I don’t have room to keep it around. Slices of lemon zest made it more magical over time.
DaveO has just posted two kitchen posts. One on salt fermented pickles, the other on preparing two food gifts, tai snapper fish and wagyu beef.
Yum! Clearly I need to go visit DaveO in Japan so we can cook epic feasts together.
