More Kusshi Oysters
Sunday, March 13th, 2011Another week of successful weight loss, another week of oysters :-) I went with more kusshi oysters today, and my friend Linda at the seafood counter threw in a kumamoto for me too (the front-most one on the plate). This one wasn't nearly as briny, so ...
Bulgogi
Tuesday, March 8th, 2011Tonight I made my galbi recipe with some thinly sliced beef bottom round to make bulgogi. We like the galbi much better. This was kinda jerky-like, tasty jerky, but still not the best texture for dinner :-P I served this with some steamed broccoli and ...
Kumamoto Oysters
Sunday, March 6th, 2011Another week of weight loss, more oysters for me! These Kumamoto oysters were grown in Humbolt Bay in Northern California. These were just a touch too briny for my tastes, but a very nice size and pretty easy to shuck, that or my skills are much improved ...
Carne Asada
Tuesday, March 1st, 2011This recipe is inspired by this one on AllRecipes. I quite liked the citrus-y marinade. Shaun wasn't as much of a fan, but thought it was alright. Carne Asada Serves 8 1.5 lb flank steak or flat iron steak For the marinade: 1/4 cup white vinegar 1/3 cup soy sauce 4 cloves garlic, pressed 2 limes, juiced ...
Chinese Pork Lettuce Wraps
Friday, February 25th, 2011Tonight, I made Chinese pork lettuce wraps, very similar to my Chinese chicken lettuce wraps, but using a pork tenderloin instead of the chicken thighs. We like the chicken version slightly better, but this was very good, and a great way to use up a pork tenderloin we had sitting ...
Roasted Butternut Squash
Tuesday, February 22nd, 2011An easy and delicious side. I got a two pound container of pre-cubed butternut squash at Costco and roasted it up. Some of it will probably end up as soup, if I don't eat it all first :-) Roasted Butternut Squash Serves 4 2 lbs pre-cubed butternut squash 1 ...
Katsu Chicken
Tuesday, February 22nd, 2011Tonight we tried Katsu Chicken again. This time I kept the pan over medium heat, and the chicken cooked perfectly. :-) I served this with some sautéed zucchini. Katsu Chicken Serves 4 1.5 lb thinly sliced boneless skinless chicken breast 1/3 cup all purpose flour 1/4 tsp salt 1/4 tsp ...
Beer Roasted Chicken
Monday, February 21st, 2011Dinner tonight was my beer roasted chicken. I went with a rub of kosher salt, black pepper, pressed garlic, and fresh thyme, with a bit of canola oil to hold it together. It was quite good as always :-)
Steamed Artichoke
Monday, February 21st, 2011I steamed myself an artichoke today to go with dinner. Shaun's not a fan, so more for me :-) Artichokes are easy to prepare - just cut off the top inch, trim the stem a bit, and steam for about 15-20 minutes, or until the base ...
