Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today

[Giles]

It's a really great museum….

For my Kanreki, we had the whole joint.  People could go anywhere and do anything....But the meal and the dancing happened in the Grand Magazine.....

Not really cooking…

Slumming it…..

[goosehd]

Yep… :D. First time we have had good seafood in 10 years (kids...). We forgot how good it is, and the kids loved the crab legs.  The oysters were a hard pass from the 5yo, and the 10yo at least tried it...then promptly spit it out.

Maybe the kids will come around. I did. My grandfather was a part of popularising king crab as a food in the USA (was already popular in Japan) in the 1950's, and the family fishing business was healthy until overfishing depleted stocks in the 80's. My family ate fish for most dinners, and oysters were a special once in a while thing to have. Here's an old ad from Life Magazine the company did.

@Nkwkfld Awesome history.

Reminds me of my favourite trip with the wife.  A seafood lovers dream (Seattle Fish Market - 2009)

[Nik]

Great! I grew up going to that market, even though I live in Portsmouth UK now, just over the water from IHUK in Gosport. Wakefield's Seafoods was also partly based in Alaska since the best king crab fishing is in the Bering Sea. But Seattle is an amazing place.

Breakfast.

[Giles]

Two more "Ramen" bowls turned up from eBay…..

I had promised myself I would only buy the colourway on the left from now on, but I love the shape of the one on the right so much, I broke my promise within seconds of making it  :o :o

[goosehd]

A promise worth breaking!  Very nice

[Sage954]

Ramen bowls look great. I’ve never made Ramen, but I want some. Just put some wings on. Really just an excuse to drink a few beers and play with fire. The added smoke flavor is a bonus.

First flip

[Sage954]

Done

That adjustable height grill is cool

Our first proper Sunday roast with guests in over year.

9lb rolled leg of Pork, should do for the six of us 

[jordanscollected]

Recreated one of our favorite dishes in New Orleans. The "Crab Boil" fried chicken at Picnic Provisions.
I marinated the chicken thighs in buttermilk and Old Bay spice (which is criminally under used in the US).

More old bay goes into the flour mix.

They serve with a lemon white miso mayo. We used our preserved lemons and chopped some picked and subbed yogurt for some reason.

I made a side salad with sourdough smoked croutons (from the Traegar) and roasted shaved brussels sprouts.

[Giles]

Oh yeah, that looks good….

[neph93]

Nicely done @jordanscollected
