The food thread
 

Friday evening Chez Weldon:

Start with a warm winter evening and a bit of a sunset
Add a glass of red, a shot of hooch
and a couple Dungeness

Hide the knife or the little so and so will grab it
Dress the crab
Add to boil
Mmm...

Second course:
Start with a tortilla
Pile it on
Bake and mmm...again

Hey, I thought you guys wanted a food thread so I started one. Whatcha got?

But I don't eat them. I don't do seafood...none, zero, zip. I eat nothing that comes outa the water.

Fondue this afternoon using ribiola. St. Nectaire, and Abondonce . Salad with arugula and a crust of ciabatta topped with burrata.

Can you tell we discovered a new cheese shop yesterday?

Today's food is boring. Yesterdays was good though:

Breakfast: usual fare

Lunch: Grilled a burger with Wisconsin Blue Marble Jack cheese (damn tasty melty blue cheese)

Dinner: Homemade Indian Chicken Curry with Okra, brown rice, homemade chapati (flat bread kinda like a flour tortilla) and some leftover spinach paneer curry.

I'm so sorry, felt more like eating before pictures after copy-catting Manu's paté Berrichon. :worried:

The crab looks great.

Your crust looks great.

John, tell us how you do your ribs. The spider is grilled also yes? Do you drown it in booze first? That's my fave.

The crab was very good. Coarse salt, demerara sugar, lemon and dries chilies.

Tonight spaghetti. I know, I know but I rarely get to eat it around here so it's a treat for me. Started the sauce about 8 hours ago and it should be ready by the end of the Superbowl.

Tonight's spaghetti:

Crushed tomatoes
Fresh tomatoes
Coarse ground pork leg, browned
Green pepper
Button mushroom
Fried yellow onion & garlic
Garden chillies, oregano, basil & rosemary
Dried marjoram & garlic herb mix
Coarse salt
White vinegar
Yellow cooking sugar

Approx 6 litres of sauce

Served over spaghettini & white cheese (not sure what kind anymore it's been too long and it now looks a little like blue cheese but Mom would kill me if I threw it away so I'll give it a shave and a haircut before plating. :))
