I made my own sushi for the first time yesterday. I was surprised how easy and not that fiddly it was...It was delicious but.... I want this sushi in my belly!

[little dead gracey]

[Curare]

...And there was me thinking about what I was gonna do for dinner.

I love being easily led sometimes.

[Vito Corleone]

Nothing as exciting as any of the food mentioned in either food thread.

Goddam

[heist]

man i really want some of that mouthwatering chicken that GM posted

[little dead gracey]

i posted a recipe for it! it's pretty straightforward

http://hungerhunger.blogspot.com.au/...a-chicken.html

instead of the white cut chicken you could adapt it for weeknight cooking by just steaming or poaching some chicken breasts and i think it'd turn out pretty fucking good

Did you make it Curare? I DID!!!





I fucked brown rice off and made a cheats version of chicken rice.

Tonight I am having couscous salad with Pemberton hot smoked trout, quail eggs, roast cherry tomatoes, spinach, pistachios, herbs and lemon

[Curare]

No, I bought a whole chicken to knock the legs off and then go carried away and ended up with a chorizo chicken and red wine dish instead.

This is the downside to being easily lead.

[little dead gracey]

Sounds delicious but probably not as virtuous as you were planning ha

[Curare]

There's always more chicken.

I've pretty much stopped buy pre-processed birds, and just divvy up carcasses these days, so next time I do I'll save the thighs and come back to that recipe

[heist]

i'm thinking something in chicken with some creamy leek and bacon concoction

also contemplating buying a slow cooker

nigella coq au riesling?

[heist]

that looks like the bizness! i will try it out when i get a casserole pot ... yes i am missing some fundamental shiz


this should probably go in the lunch thread but just a headsup to other luddites like me - i thought heirloom tomatoes were like wank gourmet stuff, but i am currently eating a salad i made with them and it is delicious. they're much better than the normal kind.

[Curare]

When I bought my Chasseur (couldn't afford a lecreuset at the time) I pretty much gave up on the slow cooker. I think I've used it to make beef cheeks once.

The chasseur however, gets a feckin bollocking!

[heist]

hmmmm, that could be a good idea... i tend to like cookware more than appliances

[Mono Lisa]

I just bought my casserole/heavy pot from Ikea. Way cheaper and does the same thing.

[Curare]

But you don't get to have that feeling of superior kitchen wankery that comes from having LeCreuset oven dishes, and Shun knives, while drinking from Riedel glasses!

[heist]

haha none of that matters to me at all - most of my stuff i've picked up from the salvos

[Mono Lisa]

Lol I will probably never feel that wankery feeling :fires up $15 fry pan from woollies:

[heist]

heh my frypans are cheap black iron jobs

http://www.chef.com.au/prod/show/110...n-frypan-25cm/

seem to work a bit better than my friend's scanpan... i always wrestle with that fucking thing :\


i also have a cheapo nonstick, but it deformed on first use... could probably use a heavier-based one of them.

Shun knives are overreated, but I can't resist LeCreusets because they're so preeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeetty

Meanwhile I will buy all my work clothes from Good Sammys as long as I have good quality shoes, bags and coats.

Different people, different swags

but shuns are so purrday



I think I need to get myself a Sankotu, just cos

[Scorpius]

I think i need me a set of those knives, Curare! Btw, making Goan Lamb Vindaloo tonight for dinner *drools*

[Curare]

Gracie's right, they're a bit OTT, but faarrk, you have to behold them every time you pick it up. It's like cutting food with art.

[dispute]

I love my Shuns. Have had them for 5 years. Get them sharpened every now and again and still as good as the first day I got them.

[~Msv~]

Our LeCrueset gets a thrashing, but so does our slow cooker. Depends on what we are cooking and if we are going to be home or not for the day.
Heist, you probably wrestle with your mates scanpan because they are over rated and rubbish. Definitely not as good as the hype that surrounds them.

what a freudian slip

[little dead gracey]

PS you'd be surprised how many profesh kitchens use Kiwi knives

[Curare]

I wouldn't. Makes sense. Just the same as the amount of tradies that use $8 lufkin tape measures. They're cheap and easy to get, and when they're fucked, get a newie maaate!

[~Msv~]

for knives, when it comes to perfomance to $$ spent then you cant go past Victorinox IMO. Great knives and very well priced.

[heist]

i made dinner for a couple of friends on good friday

[Sneaky Panda]

^ Mmmmmmm. Did you deliberately choose pork on Good Friday because the jews killed Jezu?

[heist]

i just figured pork belleh would taste the most like jesus

[Curare]

....and how did jebus taste?

I did brisket, it tasted like blasphemous joy.

[heist]

i'm not gonna lie it was pretttty good. fell apart like pulled pork and was hella juicy. never made roast pork before so i was happy

not much to it though. brown crackling, wait 1.5 hours, add wine, wait an hour, rest while you make gravy, nomnomnom

hardest bit is cutting the skin, still only once nearly de-fingered myself with the stanley trimmer.

[Curare]

yeeee!
