What Are You Eating Right Now!!!

[moose eater]

dang moose.i had no idea.maybe ill just stick to the jar stuff for now lol im surprised there was anchovies in there.can i ask how you learned to make it?

also looking good Herman!is that raw beef?looks like it could be salmon too

It's a lot easier than it looks, hawk. Just lots of a little bit of this and that.

Anchovies are a classic add to Caesar dressing. Gotta have them. And in a 'cleaner' food and farm critter world, the whipped egg yolks are a traditionally included item as well. Very few folks still add the whipped egg yolks. A minor version of food Russian Roulette... of sorts.

Not sure how long it lasts in the refrigerator, so if it's just you and you're not eating a lot of salads, you might want to make a half of a batch.

Anchovie paste often comes in a small tube, the size of an elongated travel tube of toothpaste. Relatively inexpensive; I think I get abot 3 batches the size of the one I posted from 1 small tube, and the tube of anchovie paste here is about $3+

I was being half-serious about the anchovie paste doubling as a bait enhancement. After dripping some on my t-shirt, I walked around the house half the day smelling like I was working at a grinder station at a fish processor plant.

Re. where I got my refined Caesar dressing recipe from, I had read a few recipes over time and started whipping my own dressing up with a few modificaitons over time; things we liked more of in there, and some we reduced a bit..

The other more common recipe here, which I haven't made in a little while (maybe this last October or November), is a clone of a locally produced commercial dressing a former friend makes and sells. This one's by eye only, or by 'feel' when I do it. It's olive oil, balsamic vinegar, just enough R/O water to aid in blending and tempering, a little bit of organic maple syrup (just enough to balance the pepper and the vinegar), lots of coarsely ground black pepper, a good bit of finely minced garlic, or granulated sharp garlic (like a good granulated California garlic in the event that you don't have finely minced garlic in sufficient amount). If you have them and want to, add some wild low-bush cranberries or wild blueberries. Then sea salt in minor amount, and shake briskly when first combined, several times a day for the first couple days, and then each time before dabbling on your salad. Good stuff, as well.

Is this the same as mett?

Ja, that it is. Maybe Mett is more common? Hackepeder is maybe more northern german?

 

[Hermanthegerman]

We have steak tartar in USA...not many places have it. Pretty sure it's raw

Strange, well it could be the same kind so many different names? ;-)

Hash browned potatoes with one egg over easy.

We take our spuds, either baked in foil or microwaved, and as soon as they're as done as we wish, put them immediately in ice cold water to arrest the starches from further converting.

Toss them in the cold refrigerator over night, or for however long, and then run them through a hand-held grater.

Fried in piping hot avocado oil (relatively high smoke point and fairly healthy).

Free-range egg fried in butter, over-easy. Laid over the top of the hash-browned spuds, so the yolk can blend in a bit.

Topped with a drizzle of El Pato green sauce.

Late breakfast, or a timely lunch. First meal of the day, in either case.

i didnt know you could brew it in a tea.ill have to try this.i actualy just bought some limes.what measurements you use? I think I got at least an ounce of kratom.you don't boil it do you? Just let it seep?

For tea I usually use 3-4 grams (I keep my dose pretty low.) Yeah, don't boil it. A light simmer will work in a regular pot for around a half hour will work - -Stir occasionally then strain. I only let mine go for half a day because that mini "crock pot" is actually just a warmer.
----------

Since this is a food thread, I don't want to completely hijack it with kratom talk, so I've been noshing on McCanns Irish steel cut oats with a little maple syrup, chia seeds, pumpkin pie spice and maybe some fruit.

 

[shithawk420]

Thanks squall I consider you a friend.but I've got this ridiculous powder that is just unmanageable.i just take spoon and down it.my brother just says to mix it with yogurt.the stuff is expensive and I've got some left but after this I might be done

 

[chilliwilli]

Imo mett aka hackepeter is pork. Steak tatare is beef. Both delicious. Raw porky has some bad rep but last case of trichiniasis was in the 70s in austria.

[shithawk420]

Well squall is right.dont wanna hijack this thread.please forgive me if I posted these steaks before.gotta admit maybe it's the beef mixed with lime and kratom but I'm feeling it.i remember like 10 years ago someone claimed grapefruit increased the high from weed.i said bullshit but maybe not

[shithawk420]

Whatever happened to that recipe thread? I remember who can't remember name wasclike a 5 star Michelin chef.i say we need more chef knowledge here.maybe it's the kratom and nbeer kicking in but I'm right.this place is dead.this is my favorite place but let's ic great again! Speaking of where the heck is gypsy and the mods? Maybe it's time for a coupe de ta! I'm just kidding.mostly.little tipsy

 

[Hermanthegerman]

New York strip bone-in...was about $7.50 US. A single Chinese sausage was also obtained for some $1.20 as well. Going to be very good.

[D. B. Doober]

I didn't think it would be spicy until just now. See you on the next toilet don't be late Hopefully it's good and not really spicy

 

[D. B. Doober]

Well it was great! The steak I wouldn't buy again...bone in...not really enough meat. Lot of fat. Should've gone with the sirloin no bone $6. The sausage was fantastic! Sweet terryaki-like Chinese stuff...
