Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today

[Madame Buttonfly]

@Chris:

My children, deep underground, surrounded by several inches of brick and stone?  Oh that sounds heavenly…
They're in the midst of nasty head colds- which they have, of course, passed on to Julie and me- so they're especially cranky right now.  Shutting them up in a cellar is a wonderful fantasy.

Gotta shout out for the kids - Caroline is a lovely little girl, Benjamin (admittedly not met) a delightful and spirited boy - could be that Dad is the cranky one who gets locked in the cellar…

[Chris]

As long as we're not in the same room, so that I can have some quiet time to myself, sure.  I'll happily be the one that goes to the basement.:)

And lest anyone get the wrong idea, my children are generally quite sweet, loveable little people.  It's just when we're all sick that I (and Caroline) get really short tempered.

[Madame Buttonfly]

Ah, promise not to lock you in the basement (unless you want to be, maybe with large supply of Belgian beer!)

Hope you all feel better very soon - lots of love from Gosport to y’all 

[Chris]

Same to you, too, Paula!  By the way, my big blue bag showed up today.  Three days from Gosport to Houston; not bad.

Spaghetti alla carbonara

[emceeQ]

Decided on making some ricotta today for the first time a while.  I always forget just how good that stuff is fresh.

Ricotta on thinly sliced zucchini with salt, pepper, and olive oil.

Again Pasta time

Ham, Italian sausages and champion mushrooms in creamy tomato sauce. Some freshly fried Champions marinated in garlic oil.

pour the pasta sauce into the pan

Let simmer while spaghetti is cooking.

[davito]

You are professional chefs, miam. "En guete" as we say in our dialect. Looks mmmmmh

[Jii]

Tonight's quick dinner. Roasted salmon, fresh green asparagus and lemon mayonnaise with zest.

Sometimes the simplest things are the best.

[Finn666]

that looks pretty badass mate…would love to have this now, but i think i better go to bed now

[Chris]

Cool; last night for dinner I made grilled salmon with streamed fresh asparagus lightly coated in olive oil, fresh cracked pepper and a touch of garlic.  Quick, easy and really good.  I could eat salmon and asparagus 4-5 nights a week…

Lunch on the run today…..

[seren]

Had some homemade pizza last week. Sucuk (Turkish garlic sausage) with champignon. Enjoyed it with a bottle of Corsendonk.
