Medtran, do you have a recipe for that beautiful Asian bowl or did you just make it up?

I would like to try it, omitting the shrimp (not a fan).

Peep, flat iron steak is one of my all-time favorites, and yours looks beautiful!

That is smoked sausage, actually.
Made a cold salad as well with cukes, tomato, carrot and bacon bits in Italian dressing.
Forgot the sour cream!

Made it up. But, the broth is from the recipe ?squirrel? Posted for braised pork belly, though I did put a couple of cloves in, which is what I think he omitted. The rest was shiitakes sauteed with just the tiniest bit of oil, salt and pepper, then after cooking a drizzle of sesame oil. Red bell was just roasted, skinned, cut in strips and tossed with a bit of salt and pepper. Bok choy steamed with salt in water. Thinly sliced green onions. I sliced the cooked cold pork belly into fairly thick chunks, browned them on both sides in a hot pan. I used the packaged ramen noodles and threw away the spice packets. The broth is very flavorful and doesn't need anything other than heating, besides the fact that something in those spice packs gives me horrendous headaches. BTW, the broth gells when cold. I did cook the ramen noodles in water with a little bit of broth, then drained. You don't want to cook the noodles in the soup broth because they will make it cloudy. Cilantro to garnish.

I cooked around a 3 lb piece of pork belly, then divided and used some for pork belly buns and froze the rest. Froze the rest of the broth too, there's enough left for another soup meal.

Stove top smoker spare ribs, steamed corn and baked beans.

I dry rubbed (homemade rub) the ribs. After I smoked them I brushed them with a blend of Sweet Baby Ray's Original BBQ Sauce, Heinz Kansas City Style Sweet & Smoky BBQ Sauce, dry rub and Pomegranate Molasses. Then they went under the broiler to develop a nice bark. The bones just fell out. They had a wonderful flavor.

Hmmm, that's maybe a dish for a snowy day. Lots of steps, multiple pans.

Thank you for posting, Karen.

I think I'll start a thread for this, so I can find it again.

I didn't take any pics and today was a state fair day. We both took the day off work and woke up early.

I made french style creamed eggs, buttered english muffin, link breakfast sausage, cofee.

Nothing special.

That filled me up for most the day.

My pre-dinner meal was a can of wild caught sardines in olive oil and a can of whole kernel corn. I'm a sucker for both items.

Dinner will be left over pasta from last night (of which I'll post about it in a bit)

Actually, I just used 2 pans, a saucepan and saute pan. Course the pork belly and broth had been cooked previously and frozen. I was thinking about starting a thread myself as we really liked this.

I'll have to look up your latest chicken dish, Med.

Peep, lovely char on those ribs!

We grilled chicken sausages flavored with roasted garlic and gruyere - wonderful! Will definitely get those again.

Served on whole wheat rolls with grilled peppers, onions and summer squashes.

The end has come. I ate so much, but in such great taste.
The sequence cooking worked perfect; with the grilling of the hot sausage, and the cooking of the onions and red bell peppers. The macaroni is my favorite because they don't have the rigati, ( ridges ) . IMO, they taste better. They are not as heavy either....

Made pasta. Meat is thawing. It'll be chicken pesto mazzarella with homemade tortellini. Inside the pasta is parm, garlic, ricotta.

Steaming the artichokes now.Once cooked they'll be halved, cleaned, and blackened on the grill. Got baby bellpepper going to saute and brocolli florets al dente. 20190727_171402.jpg

Homemade tortellini, Daniel!

Impressive!

Lee
thanks. i discovered that setting 5 on the kitchenaid mixer pasta roller is too thick for tortellini. It'll have to be 6 or 7.

too doughy. had to overcook it to eliminate the dough smell/taste. i know for next time.

Last night, pasta alla vodka and garlic rolls.

Any filled pasta has to be rolled fairly thinly, but still thick enough to provide structure. I accidentally found out that adding a little semolina helps with the structure, but doesn't affect texture or workability one time when I was really low on flour when I was making raviolos.
