RAC-005 World Tour

[emceeQ]

No need for that.  G graciously donated these so we could do the tour.  Just shoot a big thanks his way.

Decided to break this in by making some bannock bread in between classes today…

A little thinner than I would have liked, but delicious none the less…

[natehate]

Nice thanks g! I'm gonna put this thing to the test in the kitchen everyday !

[seawolf]

You and me both!

Cross post, but I need to show you guys the apron I'm currently using. Can't wait to get my hands on some denim armor!

[emceeQ]

And armor this thing is.  General consensus is that everyone in my house is wholly impressed by how beastly this apron is…

As you may or may not know, I live in a housing coop with 16 other people.  We set up a meal plan so dinners are made by two housemates five nights a week.

Our resident Ukrainian had the first go at the apron.  Last nights dinner was squash soup with rosemary and thyme bread...

Cooking the soup...

Separating the dough into loaves…

and blending the crap outta the soup to make it nice and creamy…

Got so caught up in eating the final product that I didn't take any pictures of it…

[emceeQ]

It's definitely soup weather here in Michigan…

Tonight we have Alex throwing together a hearty corn chowder for everyone...

Cutting up some potatoes...

Bacon getting ready to be thrown in the soup…

All together now…

Looks so delicious!

[Finn666]

haven't seen that last one yet, you got a receipt for that?

[Giles]

Recipe?

[Finn666]

doh
i've messed that up being all tired and shit, texted with one eye open…in bed, sry!

receipt = Rezept (med.)
recipe = Rezept (gastr.)

so both actually the same...but different!

[MikeC]

Corn chowder is fucking ridiculous. Love that shit. I think I'm gonna have my little brother make me some…..

[thomasnunnally]

Proper job thus far emcee!

[emceeQ]

Thanks Tom, and Mike you definitely should.  That shit will warm you to the bone.  Gotta love it…

and Finn, I'll try and dig up the recipe for you in next few days...

For now, I can tell you it was a cream of mushroom base, with milk to thin it out a bit.  Lots of corn, some peas and carrots, and two pounds of bacon later you have the soup...

and for some more food action, decided to make some bananas foster last night...

[emceeQ]

Sunday being my night to cook for the house, I naturally donned the apron…

Made a few curries and some naan tonight.  Came out fantastic, unfortunately I my phone battery died before I could grab any pics of the food…

[derivative666]

Looks like Monday leveled the cabinets and doors

[madmonday]

nice cabinets, hehehehehe

great start to this emceeQ

[emceeQ]

Believe it or not, those cabinets are a step up from when we moved in, haha.

Tonight we have Andy sporting the apron. Prepping stuff up for a nice stir fry…

[Snowy]

How are the gents enjoying the RAC-005? Do they know they're internet famous? Still swooning over it, looks perfect!

@MM I see what you did there

[Mild7]

emceeQ that's a kick ass prep bench!

[emceeQ]

Everyone's definitely impressed with the quality of the Apron.  Andy now wants one so after this is gone we  can still have an RAC-005 around the kitchen… and yeah, they are aware that they're on the internet, haha

@Mild7, hell yeah it is!  That and our 6 burner gas stove were two big selling points of the house for me...

[Mild7]

Shame i have no use for a sweet apron like the RAC005.  Nice to see how you all are making good use of it though.

And yeah, a well set up kitchen is a wonderful thing.  Its on the to-do list for sure.
