Iron Chef WAYCT - What Are You Cooking Today

[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.

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….

Nicely done @jordanscollected

@jordanscollected:

I find whenever a place does french fries with old bay it's criminally overused. There's one place by me we have to ask for no old bay on the fries each time because it's overpowering. A little bit goes a long way!

I should have said "underutilized" @setandsetting. In the Midwest, it's not popular and yes, celery salt can be too much real quick.

This was our side dish from last night. forgot pics of the main.
Oven roasted cauliflower, Chopped preserved lemon, Calabrian chili paste, crushed smoked roasted croutons, and chopped Parsley.

The crushed croutons play a really important role by soaking up free moisture from the roasted vegetables and becoming crunchy bursts of flavor and texture in the dish.

Oven roasted cauliflower is awesome.

This week I did some TexMex and German cooking, i actually made some pasta too but didnt take a photo. I struggle a bit these days with finding the motivation to cook after a long and stressfull day at work but i try to keep it up for self care sake.

Homemade pappardelle and beef shin ragu

[jordanscollected]

That looks amazing @Alex

Do you agree that Pappardelle is simply the lazy mans fettuccine? (But is actually preferred)

[Alex]

Thanks, Jeff

I suppose it's a little lazier, but I agree it's most definitely preferred. I also prefer wide noodles in Asian food to thinner ones

[Alex]

Yesterday evening I made grilled grey mullet, aubergine and black garlic puree, hispi cabbage and a garlic chilli and parsley oil

Later this afternoon I will be making a Japanese style chicken stock so that @Giles & I can make some ramen next week. pics to follow

[Alex]

Prep done

Brokedown a chicken to breasts and legs - kept the wings for the stock for a bit of added flavour. Will use the skinless breasts in dinner tonight and freeze the legs

Cut the carcass and wings into smaller pieces to extract more flavour

The aromatics

(I said I would do the eggs  )
