Re: Where my fellow cooks at???
Half time dinner for the Stillers game:
More salmon tonight (I've been hitting up the Whole Foods which is a five minute drive from my house):
I'm going to bake it and serve it with a fresh dill and yogurt sauce (kind of an abstracted tzatziki...at least that's concept at this early hour).
Roasted asparagus on the side + a bottle of pinot grigio.

Re: Where my fellow cooks at???
I've been on a salmon kick also. Bought those cedar planks off Woot a few months ago... soak those babies for 1/2 hour and then put it on the grill. Good stuff.
Made some with pumpkin w/ romano ravioli last night. Wasn't sure how I'd like that, but it was good. I could do without the sage, though... too bitter for me.

What the hell can I do with the Kale and squash that I'm getting in my local farm produce program? I've tried Kale chips before - nah. I like grilling summer squash, but anything else than that always tastes mushy and bland.

Re: Where my fellow cooks at???
If you have a juicer, throw the kale into that with a few other things.
(I'm not a fan of it cooked, so no help there.)
Try a soup with the winter squash:

Hmmm, not a big fan of raisins or cranberries. Do you saute the kale with the rice?
Will have to try the squash soup.

spicy creamed kale...Ben Klingston wrote:What the hell can I do with the Kale and squash that I'm getting in my local farm produce program? I've tried Kale chips before - nah. I like grilling summer squash, but anything else than that always tastes mushy and bland.
blanch and shock the kale then follow this:
cook 2-4 rashers of bacon (sliced up), take the bacon out, drain most of the fat. add half of a diced onion, saute til soft and add some garlic, then add the kale and bacon back in, add 2 tbsp of butter, 3/4 cup light whipping cream, 1/4 cup parmesean cheese, then cajun seasoning, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper all to taste. we make it all the time and love it.

Not sure why bread and cheese gets such a "peasantry" bad rap. Homemade bread with sharp cheddar cheese is food for the gods.

I miss having homemade bread. Mancini's is the closest I get to that.

Mancini's is good stuff. Half the reason I like baking my own bread is for the smell in the house. The way it tastes is a bonus sometimes...

Re: Where my fellow cooks at???
I'll add my thoughts - I don't really notice difference between buck and doe, but definitely do in age - an old buck typically tastes much more gamey to me than a young deer.tifosi77 wrote:At the risk of sparking frat house jokes.... do you notice a difference between the taste of boy deer vs girl deer?mac5155 wrote:Last deer roast from last year's doe in the marinade right now.

Also, thanks for the spicey kale recipe above C2i, will definitely try that.

Agreed. I don't notice a huge difference.. admittedly, its been 2 years since I ate buckBen Klingston wrote:I'll add my thoughts - I don't really notice difference between buck and doe, but definitely do in age - an old buck typically tastes much more gamey to me than a young deer.tifosi77 wrote:At the risk of sparking frat house jokes.... do you notice a difference between the taste of boy deer vs girl deer?mac5155 wrote:Last deer roast from last year's doe in the marinade right now.

Anything over 5 years old though... its very hard to eat. Id estimate this doe at 2.5-3 years. The tenderloin was soooo good from this deer.

Re: Where my fellow cooks at???
Speaking of game foods. Anyone ever cook/eat pheasant? I had some today for the first time. We went out, got 5 birds between the 3 of us. My buddy's dad put some flour on and fried the breast....oooommmmggggg out of this world good. Weren't having much luck with deer and decided to give his old bird dog who is on his death bed one last hurrah. Dunno what it is about those dogs but they find another gear when they're pointing birds.

I have half of a rump roast (about 2 lbs). Anyone have a good italian shredded beef recipe for a crock pot? Love making those sandwiches and it's almost crock pot season

Re: Where my fellow cooks at???
it always reminds me of a Newhart episode where they have a dinner party at Larry, Darryl, & Darryl's house, and they serve finger sandwiches as an appetizer. Then, Newhart's wife freaks out and asks to see everyone's fingers to make sure they weren't turned into sandwiches. Then, Larry turns to one of the Darryls, and quips, "What do you think she's gonna do when i bring out the rump roast?"canaan wrote:i smirk every time i see or hear this. im still an immature kid at heart.mac5155 wrote:rump roast
and before anyone asks... Yes. Everything reminds me of an obscure 80's sitcom reference

Made some brined fried chicken over the weekend.....it was pretty damn good.
The brine was simple: kosher salt, sauteed onions and garlic and a lot of rosemary sprigs (from the backyard).
