Avocado toast for adults (was breakfast, not dinner though). First attempt, I over cooked them and the yoke wasn't runny, next time I will bake a few minutes less. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

Nothing too special. But discovered something. I made some rolled, blanched spinach - basically blanched spinach bunches, grouped and rolled tightly then cut into 1" tall cylinders. Topped with a ground sesame based sauce. But what I discovered: around here, most spinach bunches are sold w/ the root end cut off. But Korean TV indicated that the root, especially for winter spinach, is very sweet and tasty. Took some doing but I found a source for spinach w/ the roots still attached. I cleaned and rinsed the spinach well but kept the roots intact. After blanching and rolling, I cut off the roots (1" tall by 1" diameter cylinders). My, the roots are indeed tasty and sweet. Never knew that. Am I the only one? I will from now look for spinach w/ the roots intact. "Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it."

Neighbor picked up some Argentine Red Shrimp on her grocery run for me. Jumbo sized that cook quicker than regular shrimp and are said to be much sweeter tasting like lobster. Hope to find out within the next week. If anyone already has experience with these, weigh in!

Sounds and looks yummy! Maybe similar to spotted prawns? Will you brine and grill over high heat? Or how you gonna cook them? Sounds great!

The plan at this stage which is why I'm soliciting experiences: Defrosted and prepped with some lemon. Pan fried at med-high heat with shells on in butter and EVOO. 3 minutes per side is all it is said to take.

You’ve got a lot. Butter sounds good. If you have a toaster oven, perhaps try this with a few: 1) thaw, de-vein, de-shell. Make a few shallow cuts on belly side along the length and press top down (feel the crunch) to keep the shrimp from curling when cooking. 2) brine in sugar salt water for 30 min 3) pre-heat oven on broil with oven cooking sheet 4) thinly coat shrimp in evoo 5) place shrimp on oven cooking sheet 6) broil until done (should be quick) 7) nom nom Very simple with nothing masking the good natural taste.

Thanks konata88! Interesting... never did shrimp in the oven before. And the anti-curling tip. Mmmm.... Not planning on doing them all... just a 1/2 lb this time. No toaster oven here and the Super Jumbo's have already been deveined. Did some quick youbloob searches and that's where I came up with my tenative plan.

The anti curling cuts: a few cuts across the body along the length of the belly. The press down from the top in a few places (you should feel the flesh crunch a bit) is important. It’s a technique used, for example, when making shrimp tempura to keep the shrimp straight. But I do it for however I cook shrimp. I’m probably not explaining I get it right. May take a few tries.

Not having been very optimistic about scoring any of the scarce in these parts Argentine Red Shrimp, I'd put a bag of "regular" shrimp in the fridge to defrost the day before my neighbor made her grocery run for me. Yeah I was craving some good shrimp. Anyhow I whipped this garlic shrimp dish up tonight served on a bed of rice. Now planning to do up some of the Argentine extra jumbo lobster tasting gems next weekend. Yeah. Lots of fresh parsley. And the lime added a sparkle of citrus that lemon couldn't do as well for this dish. This message has been edited.

paradox in a box |
There is one on page 2 of the bbq thread. I have no experience as it’s not commonly found in my area. But I’ve seen people either do it like steak with reverse sear on a smoker for the low heat part to medium with great results. People also do it like brisket smoker till ~203. They call it trisket. I think maybe beancooker had a thread on that. (EDIT: Nope, it was Benny on page 38 of this thread.) People like both. One thing I’ve seen is that like brisket the grain switches direction so you have to slice it differently for different parts. These go to eleven. | |||

Itchy was taken |
I coat Tri Tip liberally with salt and pepper, smoke it over hickory at 200 - 225 degrees until it reaches 142 internal temp. Comes off medium, and very juicy. Slice thin. _________________ This space left intentionally blank. | |||

Tonight for supper, it will be pretty basic but good. It has been cold and rainy all day. So: Grill a nicely marbled ribeye steak to med-rare. Baked potato with butter and sour cream. Chopped spinach bake with cheese. White pita bread. Lemon pie for dessert. | |||
|
I Deal In Lead |
Wow. That's virtually identical to what I'm having tonight with the exception of the spinach bake and pita bread. Instead we're having an artichoke, but Lemon Pie is dessert. Oh, and copious amounts of horseradish. | |||
