          Partly inspired by Giles and partly by them beeing on every social media platform all the time, hasselback potatos, creme fraiche sauce and cheese sausages form my freezer with a local ketchup (a fancy one that comes in a glas)  😉

                  That is a heartwarming looking dish @Giles, I would shovel that up.

                  @Steffen homemade creme fraiche is one of my favorite little secrets. It's simple and so much better than store bought.

                  1 cup heavy cream, 1 T buttermilk. shake it in a glass jar and let it sit on the counter for 8-24 hours depending on how thick you want it. mix in any flavors you want and add to eggs, soup, tacos, everything.

                  so good

                          @jordanscollected That I didnt know thanks, I always buy really fancy french creme fraiche from my cheese monger but i´ll try that one for shure.

                          @Chap I read a little Interview with the rice farmer, very intresting with the dry growing and the whole rice varietys.

                          Today I made "real" Mac N Cheese for the first time, I usually make a Hybrid between Mac N Cheese and a Pasta Casserole, I´d say I like both so that goes into the rotation. I also bought new Flowers  😃

                              Looks splendid @Chap I always think you´re using paper plates because the design of your plates look a bit like them.

                              I was fed up with my mise en place situation or the lack of it so i went out to the local gastro supplier and bought 3x6Pcs of stackable Glass Jars, they are made in france and where like 10€ in total so an easy and cheap way to sort out the "problem".

                                  I´d say i´ll get a bunch and send them to you but I guess the current shipping situation would make that really difficult ? @Giles

                                  The Gastro Wholesale (Metro) also has 1kg bags of fleuer de sel de guerande and 25kg bags of the famous caputo blue typo 00 pizza flour, I got a access card through my boss, they probably think your company is some weird resturant that does chinese and neapolitan pizza judging by the stuff i buy  😃

                                      Ha, I'm going through our freezer and doing the same.  Trouble is some of the stuff I have in there was bought with entertaining in mind….

                                      8kg Turkey
                                      6kg Beef Rib
                                      Lots of 4-6KG rolled legs of Pork

                                      If we can't entertain soon, I'm going to have to start thawing them out and chopping into smaller joints and/or dicing the meat up for curries and stews...

                                      Decided I  needed to bite the bullet and start…..

                                      Boneless leg of pork, at 3.5kg, a little too large for the 2 of us.....

                                          Yesterday’s dinner was a street food style shrimp bowl… which I forgot to take a pic of.

                                          Here is the shrimp part as it finished cooking thpugh. Tiger Prawns with ginger and spring onions (scallions?):

                                            Locking good @neph93  😉

                                            I made a little Texmex-ish Taco today

                                            After the just marinated chicken always lacked a little taste i decided on going for searing then chicken and after pulling it put it back into a fond/chicken stock sauce, worked wonder.

                                            Then i assambled the whole thing with cheese, salsa, creme frache and some lettuce.

                                            The serving board is a off-cut from a huge delevery of oak table tops i did last year.
