Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today

[kkibbey23]

So the last few times I went to Costco they had been out of tortillas, this is something that's a pretty big staple for us.

I finally got sick of not having them and decided to give making a whurl. This is my first attempt and I gotta say im pretty happy with it( for the first time anyway[emoji16])

I did figure out shortly that they needed to be a LOT thinner than I thought. Used a vodka bottle to get them thinner than my press could.

Simple enough and alot better than store bought mission etc..

Thanks G!

Finex is amazing stuff. Much like IH, WESCO beyond worth it. I picked it up last fall after some going back and forth. I was really unsure if it was worth it with lodge stuff being so affordable/good. Am I glad I made the jump.

I cook with it daily most days multiple times a day. I've gotta say anyone thinking about getting one definitely should! Quality is off the charts, and I'll have it for a lifetime.

The tortillas will be a staple for now on as simple as they are to make.

Next maybe ill take after you G and try some bread or pizza dough

@Matty123:

Put the sauce on top of the cheese. And use less sauce than you think you need. That will be just enough. Set oven to as hot as it goes. Cook the pizza fast. Not sure if this advice is welcome but I hope it helps

Thanks Matty…..

Blueberry muffins.  They will not win a prize for looks, but they do taste good.

I gained 5 pounds today by reading this thread.  Can you guys just focus on salads tomorrow. 

If you make salads right, they have as many calories as my sticky vanilla buns [emoji6]

[goosehd]

@neph93 Dude, you’re not helping!!  Although I am intrigued….

Great baking today guys! Please keep it up as I enjoy reading it during our lockdown and may even convince me of trying my hand out at making bread.

Brunch burritos with eggs, sliced avocado, refried beans, pico de gallo and some shredded pork

[Giles]

Yep…..

@Chris  In my 20’s, I would have eaten that “salad”.

On Friday when I went to the supermarket, there was lots of fresh fruit and veg discounted to laughable levels ( a sad indictment of or local populous imo).  Packets of heritage tomatoes - 12 cents, packets of fresh green beans - 10 cents, and fresh mangoes - 11 cents each…..

So I bought a bunch of the mangoes and am now converting them into chutney....

[BD81]

Nice! It would go great with pakoras or some naan .

Eleven cents for a bleeding mango?.. You can't even make one for that money!..
