So as stated, this week was breakfast week, which I always
skipped. Except for the one day I made cookies for that evening and enjoyed the
dough. But all from one ingredients!
The one recipe I did try for brinner last night was: http://www.oneingredientchef.com/waffle-hashbrowns/
Didn’t have a green bell pepper on hand though so
substituted chipotles, jalapenos, and beets instead. I like spicy and bright
colors, so worked for me. The hash mix was pretty easy to assemble but I had
misgiving about putting it in the Belgian waffle iron, which I had never used
before (main reason I was going with this recipe). So threw the ‘batter’ in,
which obviously didn’t spread too well so I had to spread it with a bit of
pressure and crossed my fingers it would hold well. It didn’t. But after
removing the hash from the non-stick iron, I disguised the destroyed ‘waffle’
with an avocado, celery root (also ironed!), parsley, and lemon. I think it looks presentable.
And tasted delicious.
After re-reading the post, was drawn to a helpful line: “NOTE: as readers have suggested, adding 1-2 tablespoons of whole wheat
flour to the mixture before cooking will result in waffles that are much easier
to remove in one piece. Thanks, guys!” May actually be worth trying
again with this advice!
My other cooking adventure for the week was making a few
dishes for my dogs second birthday. Cooked him up collard greens, heart
tartare, and heart jerky (with my new dehydrator!). Needless to say, I really
just wanted to continue testing out pork heart. Knowing this isn’t most people’s
cup of tea, if you are curious about tartare, check out this article: https://food52.com/blog/12354-how-to-make-steak-tartare-at-home
for a quick history lesson! Not too
surprisingly, Beau and the other dogs happily ate everything and so did I!
Because someone
asked me about hard to find products in Norfolk, I get most of my ‘eccentric’ ingredients/brands
from organic food depot: https://www.organicfooddepot.com/
where I order stuff online from a wide selection and it gets delivered to their
store on 20th and Granby (at very good prices).
Quick reminder that
we have a brunch next Sunday at Pendulum and it will only be $5 for FiM
members! RSVP here: https://docs.google.com/a/email.wm.edu/spreadsheets/d/1lzJni0xj8E1jfMSK2UXOpRjLhV_cOmUvJ_stCkhvSZU/edit#gid=220842482
