Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today

[Katsushin]

@Geo:

at the start of this thread i promised that if the topic took off i would create an Iron Heart cookbook from the contributions

well - imo the thread has been a great success and so a huge thanks for all the fantastic contributions to date (please, please keep 'em coming!); so . . . here are the beginnings of how i am imagining the e-book might take shape (thinking along the lines of retro lookbook rather than actual recipe book):

Inside Cover

Wow.
For some reason I just saw this.
I'm so honored/embarassed/honored…

Seriuosly though...very cool idea and great looking layout.
I'll definitely do my best to whip up a contribution.

Kat - already got your famous meatballs in the mix but anything else would be great

Btw - hope you don't mind me using your pic . . .

Geo, my confusion was because I couldn't imagine that a scotsman would know what we called our old money after going to €. Remember? 

and Rocket, you start to scare me:

luckily our house is shotgun guarded 5 days a week, you guess which ones

Nice grill work man!  Very inspiring…
The BBQ season is upon us, and I for one plan on doing as much outdoor cooking as possible this summer!

Made a Madeira Madeira cake.

I made a standard Madeira sponge recipe and also made a Madeira reduction to marble it, observe:

This for the reduction (no other ingredients apart from heat):

Fresh out of the oven:

Marbling in cross section:

It was a good experiment, the Madeira gave it a raisiny flavour that was nice, but very subtle, the next one will have more reduction.
