      @endo asked me for the tart recipe. So here you are. I have used pears from the garden, no idea what type they are, they are slightly hard, hence poaching them...

      Pastry.....

      Poached the pairs from this recipe....

      Actual tart recipe...

              Beautiful pear tart!

              A couple years ago, we got a free standing ice cream maker (that is, not one where you need to freeze the mixing bowl). Recently I've been making a lot of ice cream. It's very easy to make home made ice cream worthy of super premium commercial products, at least for simple flavors. The only draw back is that you need time in your fridge to let the preparation rest between stages, and obviously you need space in your freezer.

                Looks perfect @giles and a very satisfying visual.

                Gotta find uses for those gloves instead of just sticking them in hams to bake once a year.

                Patching the pears in sweetened red or white wine gives a new flavor variety. We made those often for salads with Blue cheese and toasted nuts.

                  Am I nuts for wanting to take a torch to that tart to caramelize the sugars on top? Would anyone else do it?

                    I grind them up for curries a lot and I always put them in apple sauce, and as we are having roast pork tomorrow, guess what?

                        Road testing some stuff for Thanksgiving since I’m more a cook than a baker. Pecan pie with a couple tbsp of bourbon in it. Got to use one of my grandpaw’s ancient pie tins ❤️

                                Bourbon candied pecans prepping for the pies. I don’t bake except for my pecan pies, which I’ve refined over the past few years. I love pecan pie but was always disappointed with what was available. I decided to develop my own perfect pie, and add it to the family recipe book…along with my ideal Julep and Old Fashioned.

                                      Diverted from turkey today with a pork roast. Smells insane, can’t wait to cut into it but gotta be a responsible chef.

                                          Happy Thanksgiving!

                                          Prime prime rib roast here. Garlic herb pasted the eye, grilled the rib cap with salt and pepper, made a stock from the bones and trimmings and a jus from that, and reverse seared the eye. That way we had snack meat before our late afternoon nosh 😂

                                          We made a pink peppercorn horseradish sauce, mushroom fennel savory ciabatta pudding, Brussels, and adobo sweet potato gratin.

                                          I need to grill more rib cap. So good!

                                          That was amazing but the pumpkin chocolate cookie cheesecake with salted caramel topping my wife cooked up er took the cake.
