I don’t think I would enjoy cooking the same dishes every day. I really enjoy trying all kinds of new dishes and making what I feel like at the time.

If I was to make a restaurant, I want to make a carnivore restaurant. Everything is animal-based.
Hahah sounds like Antler in Toronto.
They sell game.

Made some cod fillets with rosè sauce. Seasoned the cod with black pepper, salt, paprika, cayenne pepper and garlic. Cooked in butter and some olive oil to raise the smoke point. At the very end, added some diced bacon and dried red pepper. Removed the cod and put on rosè in to make the sauce with bacon left in there.

Started baking my own sourdough again. So satisfying!
Recipe that I am using is here. This is by far the easiest I have found and it always works.

I made spaghetti con colatura di alici. Colatura di alici is made from anchovies. It’s like the Italian version of fish sauce but less pungent in smell but tastes great.

With loads of mint wasting away, I decided to make a mint chocolate cake. Came out great! I adapted this recipe, made it less sweet with no icing for cultural reasons
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup natural unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 2/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 crapton of mint leaves
Instructions
-
Heat and stir mint leaves and milk until milk begins to boil. Remove from heat and let steep for at least an hour. Filter milk out of mint leaves, pressing all liquid from leaves.
-
Preheat oven to 350°F/180°. Grease a 9×13-inch pan.
-
In a large bowl, sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix in granulated sugar. Set aside.
-
In a medium bowl, mix together eggs, butter, and milk. Whisk until smooth. Add egg mixture into flour mixture and mix just until slightly combined. Mix gently and eventually stir with a whisk just until smooth.
-
Scrape batter into prepared pan. Bake cake for 30-40 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
Maybe I’ll try adding some coffee next time as they suggested when I get enough mint again

I would like some with a few scoops of mint chocolate ice cream on the side.

Is that metric or Imperial?

I’m really frustrated cooking pork chops. I always overcook. Always. I can never get it really charred while not over cooking it. The flavor is on point. But it’s too dry. I don’t know how to solve this issue.
Imperial. Metric craptons are craptonnes

How thick are they? The best way is to sear in both sides then into the oven. If they’re really thin, can you should get the pan just to the smoking point and sear quickly
I’ve tried thin and thicker, but I seem to just always overcook. I don’t know how to tell.
That looks good, might try that! What does “put on rosè in” mean though? Just adding some rosé wine to the pan and letting it reduce a bit?
Put in. I must have made a mistake typing.
