Late breakfast again, but no cause for early lunch, as there's hopefully no town trip required today.

One egg over easy, with 2 links of pork breakfast sausage, and a modest serving of freshly grated hash browned potatoes, done right, by nuking them until about 2/3 cooked, then flash cooling them in a sink of very cold water, then grating on a grater into a mound of awesome hash-browns.

Tall cup of freshly ground French roast beans into a dark coffee, with a dabble of 40% heavy whipping cream added.

Fond memories of select truck stops across the US and Canada, visited in years gone by, where cheap steak and eggs breakfasts with decent fresh coffee were served all day long. Mmmm..

Sauteed hosta sprouts with tofu, pea sprouts. garlic, sesame oil, crispy chill oil ,soy and a dash of honey with a couple thin venison steaks.

 

[Capt.Ahab]

For those of you who havent tried them. hosta sprouts are deelish. They are very mild, lettuce like when harvested before they start to leaf out too much. They are good steamed, sauteed, roasted..
The plants are everywhere. Its grown as an ornamental but most people dont know it's a nice Spring green.

Some vanilla bean gelato afterwards

I cooked braised short ribs and my Hungarian wife added the nokedli (a drop pasta) to go with it. This is an older picture (I cut the carrots smaller now) and it is before the grease draining and gravy making but you get the idea. It was a big hit. but it is hard to go wrong with short ribs - just don't cook them too long.

Grilled Gouda and jalapeño sandwich on sprouted whole grain thin-sliced bread.

Had considered adding thin-sliced sweet onion, but decided to skip it, as it might've further insulated the cheese to the point of it not melting in the skillet. And who wants a grilled cheese sandwich with cheese that didn't melt?

if the bread is properly toasted but the cheese is lagging behind, i throw them into the microwave for about 20 seconds. hate burnt grilled cheese. ate lots of them as a kid, no more. cue the old "smoke detector as timer" jokes...

Buttered somewhat liberally on both sides of the sandwich, and lightly golden brown when removed rfom the cast iron skillet, from a medium low to low setting..

Cheese had just gotten soft and was good enough to hold the thin strips of pervasive jalapeno in place.

Tastiest grilled cheese I've had in a long time.

A bacon cheeseburger to end all bacon cheeseburgers.

I'll likely need a cage to contain it, and a huge whole-body bib to protect myself.

~1/2-lb. of 90%-lean angus ground beef, with uncured maple sugar hickory smoked bacon x 3 slices, Jarlsberg Swiss cheese, thin match-stick strips of jalapeno pepper, thin-sliced sweet onion, hand-sliced crispy baby dill pickles, organic baby spinach in place of romaine lettuce, Dijon mustard in scant amount, no-sugar-added catsup, real mayonnaise, on 2 lightly toasted heels from the sprouted whole wheat thin-sliced Silver Hills Bakery 'Little Big Bread'.

I may need a come along to cinch it together in order to be able to actually bite the thing, so for the moment, it may be safe. But we'll see.

Though my mouth is feeling aggressive the more I look at the thing.

I just had a gyro with extra tziki sauce and double meat and it was tender and wonderful

Just finished making a seafood chowder for my oldest son's birthday tomorrow.

1/2-gallon of organic whole milk, 1/3 cup of 40% heavy whipping cream, 1/2 cup of half & half, chopped 3/4-lb.+ of uncured hickory smoked maple sugar bacon, half of a sweet onion chopped, 5 sticks of celery chopped, 4 green onions sliced, 1 red sweet bell pepper chopped, 5 to 6 cups of cubed golden potatoes, 1-1/2 large finely chopped jalapeno peppers, 5 or 6 cloves of garlic pressed,, 1-1/2-lbs. of sea scallops halved, 1-1/2-lbs. of wild-caught Patagonia shrimp shelled and deveined, 1-1/2-lbs. of squid steaks cut into cubes, 8-oz. of cream cheese, 1-1/4 sticks of salted butter, ground thyme, black pepper, white pepper, and sea salt. Slightly thickened with about 1/4 to 1/3 cup whole wheat flour made into a slurry in chicken base.

Made between a gallon-and-a-quarter and a gallon-and-a-half of fairly deluxe chowder.

May have to cancel his gathering here, and keep this for ourselves.

Edit: Forgot to list the sherry that was added; about 1/3 to 1/2 cup of.

We used to make a lot of burrito filling from ground moose meat, but just the other day, for the first time in a long while, made burrito filling from decent ground beef.

Organic refries that, after adding them to the sweet peppers, jalapeno peppers, meat, chilis/mole, cumin, garlic oregano, and such, we'd thicken with a bit of either white or yellow corn meal (just a couple or three TBSP, depending on the amount of filling), and we often make a larger skillet full of the filling, as it freezes, and what isn't frozen we can eat for a few days.

The trouble for me with a lot of Mexican foods is they tend to be high in carbohydrate, which is a no-go for me for health reasons.

This time around, with some apprehensiveness, we tried some almond flour tortillas, though I normally avoid using too much almond flour, preferring coconut flour of decent quality, as almond flour tends to be fairly grainy.

The tortillas we bought made from the almond flour, though a fair bit smaller than we prefer for making burritos, were excellent, with no graininess to them.

Yes, thank you, I'm somewhat familiar with their products from our local Co-op, though I think the smaller almond flour tortillas we scored at Costco (currently on sale for about $3 or $4 off per 20), which surprisingly lacked any notable grainy texture, are about 20 or so grams of carb.

I've been mostly familiar with the Ezekial bread(s).
