Which Cooking Are You?

[Voltron]

Ribeye, blistered shisito peppers, sugar snap peas, and garlic bread. Satisfying.

Last night we made pizza with mozzarella, parmesan, scallion, garlic hot peppers, pancetta and egg.

 

Pizza looks good Al (so did the punjabi beans). What did you do for the crust? Any particular recipe? I know this was back in May...

[Voltron]

It's my friend's pizza crust recipe so I will have to find it again. It's very easy and turns to great. I'll let you know when I get the recipe, Chris.

My parents dropped off fresh peaches, so cobbler it was.

Did a horrible job sprinkling cinnamon, didn't matter. It was great.

Thanks, now I'm going to have that Presidents of the United States of America song stuck in my head.

I will only like your post if I know what brand knife you are using.

Another reverse seared Ribeye, this time with homemade creamed spinach. Pulled out the steak at 110 degrees and did a quick sear. Plus I feel like I'm at a steakhouse with the bucket of creamed spinach I made. Fantastic.

It’s very colourful, like an ad for film.  Pretty.

Just made crepes for lunch. The batter was a little too thick. The Irish cream liqueur sits inches away, so I thought hmmm.

Best crepes ever!

Is this stuff considered a gateway drug?

I am somewhat concerned about the desire to move up to Kahlua and maybe even Cream De Menthe.

[n_maher]

I do not think that Creme de anything represents a move up.

I think of myself as a butch dude, but when it comes to booze I admit to being a nelly queen.

What if you had Irish cream tea and crepes at the same time?! All heck might break loose! 

I have not been sleeping normally and keep waking up at 3-5am. Today I gave up at 6:30am and went to the local bakery/farm/pumpkin patch for pastry and a few other items. I had a sweet cream cheese croissant about 7:30am while watching the sunrise on a bay of Lake Michigan. I also bought a plain croissant so I made second break later in the morning with cheesy eggs and bacon in what Burger King called a croissanwich. I could easily live up here about 8 months of the year...

I love that place! The best pastries ever! And talk about atmosphere!

Duck breast with mushrooms and gravy and tomato/beet salad.

Not actually cooking, but making tuna salad. I like my tuna salad loaded. Red Bell Pepper, Onion, Heirloom Tomatoes, Pickles, but not just any pickles will do, Kalamata Olives, Crumbled Bacon, Albacore Tuna and Ciabatta Buns.

When I'm ready to serve I slice some Avocado, then add some French Fried Onions. 

Yes, I'll be cleaning my countertops!

Now that's a tuna salad!

Drooling.  What is special about those pickles?  I have access to some really good pickles, I want to try your recipe.  Although I’d probably add celery, carrots, and black pepper.

They're by far the best tasting store bought pickles I've ever had, by a very wide margin.

Found a couple stores I frequent that carry them.

I love me a good dill!

Insert joke about tasting pickles here.
