Take them to the next level Bill. Use only the egg yolks and replace the pie pastry with puff and you get a Portuguese egg tart. Don't forget the torch.
English and Chinese tarts are basically the same thing. They use whole eggs and regular pie crust. The Portuguese version is yolks only, a puff pastry crust and a blast with the plumbers torch. Funny thing is, they cost the same at the bakery.
My understanding of the brain connection is similar to yours. Whether or not the brain tells the stomach that something specific is coming down the pipe, I think is debatable, but safe to say there is a good deal of communication. Just like there is with the nose, ears, eyes, mouth and sense of touch.
I will look up the portugese tarts and try them. They do sound good.
And although the science is debatable I think we can both accept there is no harm in eating real food and possibly a lot of good 🙂

I can't help myself sometimes.
For the last week or two, I have said no, I won't do it, to my wife, no to my buddies and no to even me. We have no room for anything more.
Last night I dreamed about loading the smoker. Pork ribs no less.
I left before she got up.
It's all about forgiveness in place of permission.
Eight St. Louis racks totalling 14 kgs.
Salt and sugar marinade for a couple days
Then low temp smoke for about 24 hours
I want dehydrated ribs, not dinner style. The kind that can sit on the porch and gnaw away at. Some of my favourite memories from way back. I think some of you understand.

I now have an image of cal in a rocking chair with his ribs...
tonight was pizza. No 00 flour at the supermarket so took a risk with the organic bread flour I had. Didn't rise as expected so a thin crust pizza but tasted good. So good didn't get a picture before the family descended on it and ate it.

Cal,
Just a brief suggestion, you are supposed to eat food in moderation, not collect it!
If you really find a need for collection, I suggest you try something that will quickly fill up you space, like old Altec gear.

Being the charitable soul I am, this stuff goes out the door rather quickly allowing me to further 'feed' my addiction without interruption.
I'll get right on that Ed. Nothing makes the wife happier than when I fill up the spare bedroom with speakers.

I should be in bed but when you have an obsession...
First batch out of the smoker and into the oven for further drying. Second batch into the smoker.
Time for sleep methinks.

Glad to see someone else making use of coffee like that. I do it more often with beef than pork but the idea is always good as is the final product.
I found this to be a good video of the breaking down of a yellowfin. I love watching 'big' things happen. And the title is misleading, it's not really about his knives, it's about butcher. Not his first rodeo as you will see but at the same time, not a showman. I like to see the diferent buckets that things go into as you know none of it is going to waste.
Definitely worth your time if you enjoy big time food prep.

Some of the prep and serving starting partway through. I am not familiar with it all but it all looks good even though some of it had cooking time. (Hint: I like raw fish)
EDIT: I am commenting as I go along watching the video. A complete package it is. Nice story from start to end.
