Nom nom nom - Food Thread

Today I received a wonderfully thoughtful box of flavorful fire!

I just did a hot sauce tasting with tortilla chips and some grilled salmon. My tastebuds just went to a rave and are now chilling in the medic tent slurping down some H20

Ok so it definitely isn’t pretty but it tastes pretty good for a first attempt. Some wonderful hooman suggested I try to make Migas for a hangover cure.

So we’ve got leftover Cajun shrimp, onions, garlic, bell pepper, eggs, Habanero, and crunchy tortilla strips. When I attempt this again I’ll probably add green bell peppers and cilantro, as well as more habanero. But it was delicious!

So I made Cacio e Pepe for dinner. Was so hungry that I forgot to take a picture of it, so it’s like it never existed. Lol

It came out decent but I feel like unless you have some amazing pecorino or grana pardano cheese, it just doesn’t have the pop of traditional cacio. I simmered the pepper in brown butter for a bit so it gave it a deliciously smooth and understated pepper flavor. Would recommend Doing that. I also added in some rosemary which is wholly non traditional, but I will put rosemary on damned near anything.

I love Cacio e Pepe!! A few years ago I had an amazing version at a pinsa spot in Brooklyn that they finished in a hollowed out Parmesan wheel. Yum.
 
Leftover hash with what I had in the fridge. A few slices of bacon about to turn, half an onion I was saving, sprouted potatoes, some wrinkled serranos, and leftover sous vide pulled pork from the weekend. Topped off with some eggs and a smear of homemade bbq sauce.

I just want to make my food, ya know?
