I just learned how easy and inexpensive TRUE homemade pizza is to make.

Unfortunately I'll be waiting a bit to be able to make it. since I need to buy ingredients and wont be able to go to the store for a few days.

also this damned I intermittent fast is a bit harder than I remember.....

all in all I'll smash a few pizzas with whatever I want on them soon.

Couldn’t resist $5/lb ribeye roasts this morning. Split it down the center and froze half. Salt, pepper, and into the fridge. Was planning to grill it this evening, chop a fresh salad, and finish up the potato bake. But then our power went out. Went and got some ice blocks from the store, and sushi and fried rice. Best I could do in the cold and the dark.

A few weeks ago some of my work travels brought me close by my favorite gas station and they had a few cuts of beef that looked fantastic. This ribeye cap was one that caught my eye. Decided it was going to be dinner tonight.

Vacuum sealed it with some rosemary, garlic, and a little soy sauce.

These very fatty and relatively thick pieces have given me some trouble on the grill in the past with flare ups, so I have decided to use the sous vide to get it up to temperature before I use the grill to finish it. That should limit the exposure to excess flare ups from the extra fat.

Freestyle tonight. There's no specific name for it.

There's chicken breast sitting in brine. I'll cut it up and fry it with diced onion. Then diced tomatoes get added. Whole kernel corn and jalapeno. Thyme and rosemary, garlic powder.

Served over white rice that was boiled with chicken broth powder.


I'm doing this again. The rice isn't getting chicken broth. It'll be Gordon Ramsay rice. The rice cooked with cardamom and anise star.

Same brine as last time. 1/4 cup kosher salt and a 1/4 cup sugar in 2.5 quarts water. The breast has been soaking since last night.
