The bottom back door is really awkward for me to get to with any food preps.






You're right about the wood fire flavour Brian - you really should knock something up.  Once I've finished fitting our new kitchen, I've been given the go ahead (by the boss) to build a pizza oven in the garden - I'm looking forward to that.






That's something I'll build at my next house.  An sand-filled area for cooking over grates/planchas/rebar, plus a bread/pizza oven, which may be used for smoking meat as well.



And if Brian doesn't bring enough wine I'll do so.  I'm torn between the lamb and the trout.



 






Have both.



 



a couple of years back I was in Sardinia in italy and the house we were staying in had an enormous wood fired oven in the basement.  I didn't cook any pizza (why would you make your own when in Italy) but I did roast a small pig, some chicken and vegetables - the flavour and just the plain fun experience were both superb.

Good man - that would be an awesome combination.  Have you tried it with mint sauce?  That's a British staple - chopped mint in vinegar.

Crabs are in season here. It takes a little time to pick the meat out, but that's part of the tradition, picking crabs, drinking beer for some and spending time around the table with family or friends.

It's one of those things that I 'eyeball, but this is pretty close, only thing I do different is I drain the water before chopping the mint and then add the sugar as I prefer my sauce on the vinegary side

A lot of that is similar to chimichurri - water, salt, herbs, vinegar.  I'm going to assume that it's subject to taste and available ingredients, like chimichurri.  Truth be told, I don't think I've ever made it exactly according to this recipe.  I always adjust it depending on my mood.  I'm pretty sure I always use more olive oil, and I definitely vary the herbs.



After I've used some at a meal or over a few days, and the ingredients in the bottle become a bit too solid to pour, I just add more olive oil.  I could probably skip the entire water and salt part (salmuera) if I wanted.



Ingredients



 




  • 1 cup water

  • 1 tbs kosher salt

  • 1 head garlic, chopped (yes - head, not clove)

  • 1 cup parsley

  • 1 cup dried oregano

  • Other herbs as desired/available – rosemary, basil, etc.

  • 2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, if you want it to have a kick)

  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar

  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil



Instructions



 




  1. Bring water to low boil.

  2. Add salt, and stir to dissolve.

  3. Allow brine to cool.

  4. Pour brine into bottle.

  5. Add other ingredients.

  6. Use immediately, or allow ingredients to infuse up to 2 days.



The saltwater brine is referred to as salmuera.

Mint sauce was/is the most common condiment for lamb in Australia.
Over 4 years, I ate a lot of lamb.
1/2C very fine dice mint leaves in 1/4C steaming hot vinegar.
I think there must have been maybe a tsp sugar in there as well.
I don't recall any oil or butter. Mushy green stuff with a heavenly aroma.

Went to a big bush toot up the country towards Albury, 3 lambs on spits over the fire.
Galahs and Crimson Rosella parrots flapping around the place in dozens.

I like to do large lamb pieces, shanks and bigger, 3 hrs at 275F with apple wood smoke
for the first hour. Several dry rubs with not too much sugar make a big difference.

Brian T - Posted - 08/16/2020:  10:50:03


Local mountains are loaded with layered sedimentary rock so getting nice, slab-shaped pieces is a simple drive on a good logging road. Big sand deposits along the road and firewood from logging debris piles.
I've got several oven racks from the dump (scavenging is actually verboten.).

Right now, there's an ancient 2-burner gasser out there that I use for BBQ and another rig for grilling.

I found 2 meat rabbits in the big freezer, might thaw one
and try to BBQ that with an apple juice wet mop.

The "Memphis Blues" BBQ House in Vancouver, BC published a cookbook. Everything from dry rubs (5) and mops to slaws and other sides and desserts. Good design plans for stone/brick ovens, too.
My SIL claims to have eaten every thing there is on the menu.

Be interested to hear how the bbq bunny turns our Brian, I shoot a lot of wild rabbits (wild..... it was livid!) and they are super lean, so much so that I tend to cook them in some kind of sauce/casserole.

Ron, it's a bit of a story, but today I heard an interview on the radio with Whitey Schmidt, an author who basically ate his way up and down the Chesapeake Bay, focusing on crabs, although asparagus and oysters were certainly not out of his purview.  I had honestly never heard of him before.  I can send the audio file of the interview if you're interested.  The articles below are pretty interesting.  His books are available on Amazon and elsewhere.



"...the host made the mistake of saying, 'Hey, I’m gonna order a Domino’s Pizza.'"



"[I] traveled with him in that grey station wagon with the driver-side mirror attached with duct tape, I made it to about a dozen of the 250 crab houses he visited. 'I'm doing research,' were his words."



"Eventually, he bought a single-wide trailer on a large lot in Crisfield and transformed it into an oasis of comfort. He created a kitchen any good cook would envy. He outfitted an office, and installed extras including a bay window, built in bookcases, stained glass, custom doors, and a large screened in porch for entertaining. Then he built the garage that houses his publishing operation along with a pool table, couches and stone-lined spa. A few years ago he Whitey installed a large wood-fired pizza oven he had imported from Tuscany. 'It will cook a pizza in 90 seconds.'"

Experiment time: Sous vide chicken salad without a sous vide machine.



Put 1.5 lbs of boneless chicken thighs in big zip-loc bag with a cut up lemon, herbs, a sliced Fresno pepper, salt and pepper. Drive as much air as possible out of the bag and seal. We have an electric kettle that heats to a range of temps including 160*F, which is perfect for this. I heated up 3 liters of water to 160* and put it into a really heave Dutch oven on the very lowest flame with a heat diffuser and put the bag with the chicken in the water uncovered. This keeps the water at a fairly constant 165* between the ultra-low flame and heat exchange with the air. Let cook for 1:45 (could probably go longer without any harm. At the end of that time, check the temp on the chicken - you want 160* — and put the bag in an ice bath for 15 minutes.



Make whatever dressing you like. I did a pretty conventional mayonnaise base this time, along with salted and pressed cucumbers from a friend’s garden. Take the chicken out of the bag and discard the lemon and herbs. Cut into 1/4" cubes and add to the dressing and serve.



The chicken came out perfectly cooked and very juicy, A real winner. Now I have to figure out if I can make this work with steak, which takes a much lower temp.

That sounds good! Except for the mayo part. That's just me. I never could stand that stuff angry Chill here tonight along with canning corn and green beans. Getting a head start on winter today as I cleaned and serviced the OWB so we'll have heat and hot water aplenty this winter. Trying to do a bit better this year, running out of wood made for a couple of 3 dog nights and we only have two laugh

Do try this with steak! 54C. for 3 hours &then  sear it up! Some oil & fresh herbs & garlic in the bag.

Brian T - Posted - 08/17/2020:  22:05:09


Calamari. Squid. Freezer inventory shows I have at least 2 dozen squid tubes. Maybe more.
I happen to like to eat lots of Calamari. Good way to teach little kids to count to 10.

1. Bread/batter rings and deep fry. I have a good seasoning mix to make up.
2. Cold marinated rings (cooked) in olive oil/white wine/lots of herbs and chill 2 days.
3. Heidi-cat will bat a single ring around my kitchen and finally settle down and eat half.

Anybody got any novelties here? Nothing special in my Asian or Greek cook books.

In one of my older fish cookbooks I found a recipe for Indonesian Sambal Goreng Cumi Cumi, which is a spicy squid stirfry. I tried to Google the recipe, and got lots of hits in Indonesian, which is of little use to me. You could try your luck with Google Translate. If you'd like, I can try to photograph and post the one from my cookbook here, but that might take some time. The recipe calls for candle nuts, which I could probably find at the Asian Hypermart, or macadamias as a substitute. Given the amount of chili, it looks like a 5-alarmer, which is pretty typical of my experience of Indonesian curries.

Brian T - Posted - 08/18/2020:  10:30:44


Over the years, I've been gifted a variety of Asian cookbooks. Should have a look.
Appreciate the hint, Chef Google may find something I'd like.

Never been much of a fan of plain heat.
Besides temporary gut-rot, I have never tasted the food but heat.
I want something mild that doesn't overwhelm the calamari taste.

1/2C salsa, as hot as you like.
1/4C Dijon mustard (gets dumbed down in the cooking)
One quirt of lime juice (DON'T overdo this)

Soak the chicken pieces for 30 minutes, grill or pan fry with all the goop.

Tacos tonight. Have everything and my own spice mix.

I get that not everyone wants to feel the heat coming and going. 



I also found a Greek recipe that is based on fresh orange juice, if that's of interest.

The marinade goop spits like crazy. If you can't cook outdoors on a grill, you have to use a tight spatter screen over the pan and spend a lot of time cleaning off the stove top.

Recipe is kid tested and kid approved ( they called it "chicken on a stick") kebabs.
First thing I made from a massive Consumer Reports cook book the kids gave me.

Liz here:
Last night, we did crispy pork chops over linguine with the infamous scorpion pepper sauce - which turned out to be like a spicy pesto sauce rather than the salsa I expected. It had quite a lot of basil, blops of cream cheese, and something sweet along with a kick of heat that was noticeable but very tolerable. Excellent!

I bought a pkg. of habanero peppers for jerk chicken last Sunday. We got too busy around the house & just cooked it on the upright cooker on the gasser with a rub. (Still excellent!).



I bought a nice small pork roast for 2 with leftovers fo Monday. When I came home from work Terry (she gets off earlier)  had the roast in the sous vide with the jerk recipe. We cooked it for 4 hours & then pan browned it using some of the leftover marinade.



It was the most tender. tasty pork roast ever.



I've posted this recipe here before. We use fresh rosemary & thyme because we have it.

Sometimes happy accidents happen. A pan of leftover spicy dhal in the fridge - remnant of a midweek prawn and rice dish. And a haggis that has a use by date in the near future. Hmmm. Turns out to be a wonderful combination. I'll do it again on purpose. A bottle of picpoul de pinet next to the haggis in the fridge certainly helped.

How's the fingers Brian?  Last time I bought a mandoline - it got christened with the tips of my first and index fingers and a good glug of blood!

I still have my stainless steel mesh fishing glove. Just the thumb and 2 fingers style.
It's great protection from slicing cuts but a stab would still get you , I suppose.
Meat-cutters supply houses stock them.

The mandoline comes with a "pusher-cap" thingie to grip the food item.
I have a dim view of its effectiveness but toys are meant to be played with.
