Picked about a dozen number 1 blue crabs today. Still enjoying the stiging little cuts and punctures on my fingers

You're prolly still hungry, too. Not much meat on those little bastards. Nice food for eating while having conversation.

Don't tell me you used one of those freaking wooden toy mallets on the crab? Do you knock on the shell to see who's home?

My favorite meal of every day: breakfast.

Massaman is all set in the slow cooker. The of all those spices wafting through the house.....oh yes!

Did you ever do the John Dory?

PIÑA COLADA ICE CREAM

Makes about 1 ½ pints, enough for 2-3 sweaty motherfuckers

3 cups of frozen pineapple*

1 frozen banana, broken into chunks

1 ½ cups canned coconut milk

1 tablespoon liquid sweetener like agave or maple syrup, whatever you got

½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Throw everything in a blender and run that shit until it’s all smooth. Pour it into a loaf pan or similar shaped container and smooth it all around so it’s even. Don’t go freezing some uneven chunky bullshit and waste everybody’s time.

Cover and place in the motherfucking freezer until it is nice and solid, at least 5 hours depending on how shitty your freezer is. You know what the fuck you should do with ice cream after that. This is best eaten the first day or two after it’s made because it can get harder to scoop the longer it sits. But no doubt you or your roommates will get after it long before then.

*about one 16 ounce bag

We had steak caesar salads for dinner. Baby greens, homemade creamy caesar dressing, good parm shavings, homemade garlic croutons, and the most beautiful, gorgeous, tasty steak on the grill. NN got a picture, it looked like when Thor grills- utterly beautiful.

That salad was SO good, I wish I could rewind dinner over and over again.

Near perfection. The meals that dreams are made of.
I had that, this past fall.

(Not enough ambition. I am supplying the body with acceptable fuel.)

Long lasting looks with longing, at the Sauternes.

Quelle horreur !

"Owing to changes in the availability of materials, and improvement of manufacturing methods,” Skelton informs me, “we have been forced to adapt these, but their character has been rigorously retained.”

"...there is inevitably some variation of properties within the supply. We strive to smooth fluctuations using a paste blending system but they can never be entirely eliminated.”


Special Edition Summer of Love Marmite, £3.49 for 250g

Less aggressively salty than the proper stuff, with a more malty, beery flavour, this reminds me of the heresy that is Vegemite, and as such, I cannot recommend it unless you’re desperate, or Australian. Still better than anything else you can put on toast though.

"Made with 100% lager yeast for a lighter blend,” it is designed to appeal to “a whole new audience” (who, presumably, found even the meek flavour of the so-called original too much to cope with).

A small slab of beef ribs in the smoker/grill @ 225°F. The beef is from Australia and supposedly, vegetarian fed. So, does this mean that the Angus cow was fed ground up vegetarians? Whatever, I'm looking forward to eating the cow!

Fresh Boston lettuce. *happy sigh* So tender, so delicate.

The husband had to go to Kobe Japan, where he had Kobe beef. He said it was the best cut of meat he has ever had.
We have it at our local Mon Boucher, but I have never tried it.
Personally, I would like to try it IN Kobe Japan.

 

[NHKitty]

Portobello pizzas courtesy of my man...delicious and I didn't heat up the house at all.

I've only had Kobe once and it was "pops": Kobe Beef, Blue Cheese & Bacon Bites O Pops. I remember them being good, but nothing I'd go out of my way to have again. Maybe next time I should try the steak.

A lot of stuff sold as Kobe is just Wagyu. The same kinds cow, but perhaps not massaged daily.

 

[JohnnySavage]

Prior to 2012, Kobe beef was not exported. The first exports, in January 2012, were to Macau, then to Hong Kong in July 2012.[14] Since then, exports have also been made to the United States, Singapore, Thailand[15] and one chef in Canada.[16]

But they have some Wagyu cows in the US.

 

[NHKitty]

Interesting.

All I know is the steak last week at Mike Shannon's was awesome...and so was the chicken.

 

[warrior queen]

We have Wagyu here in Australia, but if you compare the steaks side-by-side they look quite different to the real thing.
