Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today

[mclaincausey]

gag I'll take your word for it! I won't pretend there aren't limits to my culinary open-mindedness 

For today's lunch, I'm making laab lettuce boats by filling lettuce with pickled daikon and carrot, red bell pepper, and some cilantro (would include holy basil if I had it) with peanut sauce and a Szechuan pepper paste, topped with my wife's chicken laab. This is a very simple, refreshing, and delicious dish, and not worlds away from how I picture Laotian and Isan people eating the dish.

It's Apple Butter today.

Big pots.

I’d love to try some apple butter one day @twin.

I had time to make my favourite breakfast today. Cheese on toast with a fried egg, caramelised onions, and sriracha on top…. third cup of coffee and odd rubber duck for company.

First attempts at Dosa's.  Pan a tad too hot, but boy was it tasty…..

@neph93 You can order some from Bauman's website. They will ship it to you.

Ever deep fried ribeye?

Great bark and only takes 12 minutes

We also fried a turkey and two Cornish game hens, and sous vide pheasant breasts and thigh roulades. Giblet gravy from all three species of bird and a mushroom demiglace.

We were only 4 this year for Thanksgiving (being in France and all), so I cooked a turkey breast. I cooked it sous-vide for 3-4hrs, and then browned it in a pan with a handful of aromates and some butter. It was the best turkey I've ever eaten…

Made boeuf bourguignon out of some short ribs. No flour or roux in this version. It came out really nice! Served it with roasted vegetables and this amazing kale salad my wife makes (not pictured, but seriously, it's really great–I'll get the recipe and share here, everyone loves it and the dressing is hard to beat). Next time I will use pearl onions, and I feel like it's impossible to have too many carrots, so more of those, and more mushrooms. But otherwise the flavor and texture was hard to beat!

Super yum!

Tomahawk steak is kind of a gimmick but might as well try it. With mushrooms sauteed in a mushroom demi, grilled lobster, roast cauliflower and potato puree, Moroccan carrots (again), and a kale salad. Reverse seared and delicious!
