Escabeche

jeremy — Tue, 02 Aug 2011 21:23:34 +0000

We had some success in canning tomatoes last week, so we figured we would give some jalapeños en escabeche a try. We like ours with more carrots and onions than the recipe calls for. We also haven’t ever properly canned …

Garden fresh!

The abominable tomato man met his maker, along with two other tomatoes and two other zucchinis. These were the results.

Abominable Tomato Man!

All this heat and humidity have made the garden run wild! Only two of these are attached to each other, but it wouldn’t be the same without a head, thorax, and abdomen!

Eggs Florentine, Southern Style

Rebecca made us a mess of Eggs Florentine, with a southern twist. There’s a bed of white grits, some chevre, collard greens sauteed in fat rendered from the sausages, and an egg to top it all off. Lecker!

We were going to call these rolls, but I thought they could use an expansion slit. Now they’re buns.

jeremy — Fri, 15 Apr 2011 19:49:33 +0000

The best meal so far in San Francisco’s Tenderloin district was my well-done brisket, rare steak, beef ligament and tripe pho at the Pho Tan Hoa. I ended up wearing a fair amount of it. It was worth it: the broth …

Braised beef and noodles

jeremy — Mon, 04 Apr 2011 12:19:13 +0000

We had a late lunch yesterday, but it turned out pretty well! Since we have to go to a later mass, we had all kinds of time to let the beef braise in its wine & mint marinate. Rebecca got …

Five Guys

jeremy — Mon, 24 May 2010 21:01:44 +0000

Well, another weekend, another place to go eat. There’s a burger chain that started out in Washington D.C. called 5 Guys Burgers and Fries. It’s burgers and fries, so how could I go wrong? The way it works is this: a …

Nu-Way Weiners

Nu-Way was founded by a Greek guy in the first half of the 20th century. The chili sauce has a bit of a kick to it. The chili cheese slaw dog is pretty darn good thanks to that.
