I've tried this, and loved it.



It's raw garlic in olive oil. Not strong as fried garlic, not unpleasant as (for me) cooked garlic. Very crispy, mmmh.

I was eating a bowl of Trix cereal....now I am cleaning it off of my computer screen.

Silly Bogey, Trix are for kids.  ;D

With gravy I presume?  (And lots of black pepper and a few chunks of the dressing on mine.)

Yup,  tons of stuffing and loads of gravy.  A small dollop of cranberry on the side.  Fenlon called it the mile high diner special or something like that.

Good-sized pieces of portuguese farm cheese and benedictine monks bleu cheese from here. With a glass of Costières-de-Nîmes. Life is good... ;D

Due to your post, just had one myself.  Same dollop garnish included, but threw some left over peas and corn on top of the sandwich to give it some color.  ;D

Tonight, eating @ home - venison medallions medium rare in a brown wine mushroom sauce + sauteed spinach - along w/ some Morgon '04 Pinot Noir from the Central Coast of California - excellent!  :D

Bill - sounds delicious - I love pork tenderloins, esp. w/ a marinade & cooked still pink!

Tonight, sushi-grade tuna bought locally, seared just a minute per side (pre-marinaded) w/ a salad veggie side - quite lite! (pic below is what the tuna looked like, not the same presentation!); wine was an Oregon '04 Pinot Noir from Lemelson (Thea Vyd) - been aging in my cellar for about a year - fine combination (just my personal preference - love Pinot Noir w/ salmon & tuna - best argument for 'red' wine & fish together!) -  ;D

Cooked some white quinoa with olive oil and chopped parsley. Next to that, some [mock] chicken strips with homemade tomato based sauce. Sliced kirby cucumbers for refreshment  0:)

I just finished eating an yogurt and went out to have a very strong espresso. My breakfast.

My first experiments with dry curing meats came out of the curing chamber today.  I made some duck proscuitto and damn is it good.  Luscious,  glistening fat and slightly salty gamey flesh....I wish you were all here to try one of the thinly sliced pieces.  I should have made more because it's gonna be gone by tonight.  Next up is dry cured pork belly.

I'll post some pics later this afternoon.

Here are the pics.  This was roughly a 2 week process.  Some of the color looks horrible in these shots and none of the good detail comes through.  It's really damn good though and the easiest thing in the world to do.
