While I don't have time to make a post about everything I make both at home and at school, I figured I could snap some quick photos along the way.  I will post them all in this thread, and I may post things culinary and food related that I find interesting.


Porchetta I prepared to be roasted the next day.  It's pork belly stuffed with seared beef liver, fennel seeds, garlic, parsley, and olive oil.

I found a recipe for panda bread, and I thought it was the cutest thing to put in your mouth. :-)

Oh my god, that's so cute.. I don't think I could eat it *grins*

Oh wow, that is amazing stuff.  And I, for one, could definitely eat it. XD

Muffins! They look good and that panda bread looks so cute.

Just to be clear, I did not actually bake the panda bread.  It was a recipe I found online which I thought was really cute. :-)

You're not interrupting at all.  Thank you.  Hmm, what have I made?  Lots of stuff.  I love baking.  It's really hard for me to list everything.  Cakes, pies, muffins, cupcakes, bread pudding, cheesecake.  I make a lot of baked sweet goods.  I like that.  Hope to have my own bakery someday.  I like doing savory cooking too, but not as much as baking.

With cinnamon raisin bread from work, I was able to make some raspberry bread pudding.  Simple enough with eggs, half and half, spices, raspberries, raspberry spiced rum, and bread.

Sure, dear.  The only reason I didn't in the first place is because I sort of just made it impromptu.


Impromptu Raspberry Bread Pudding

1 Loaf of Cinnamon Raisin Bread, cubed into 1" x 1" cubes (if possible) and allowed to dry out overnight
3/4 cup Half & Half
4 large eggs
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 - 1 cup raspberries, fresh or frozen
3 Tbsp Spiced Rum (I used a homemade raspberry infused spiced rum made by friends).  Suggestion: Sailor Jerry's
Pumpkin Pie Spice, couple of dashes or so.  Suggestion: Penzey's
1/2 stick of butter, softened
1/3 cup of brown sugar
1/3 cup of oats

Preheat oven to 350 F.

Place cubed bread in very large bowl.  Sprinkle sugar over the bread and add raspberries.

In a medium bowl, place half and half and eggs and whisk until uniformly combined throughout.  Mix in rum and spices, whisk uniformly.

Pour egg and half and half mixture over the bread and stir thoroughly to coat all bread evenly.  Pour into baking dish and gently press in with a spoon.  Don't smash it to bits, but compact it just enough so the bread can soak up the liquid.  Let stand for 10 - 15 minutes and allow to soak.

While that is soaking, place brown sugar, oats, and butter in a small bowl and mash together until mixed.  Crumble over the bread and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.  Serve hot or cold.

Autumn52

Thank you so much. I can't wait to try it. I will buy all the ingredients and try it out. I'll let you know how it comes out. Yay I can't wait.

Thanks again.

I haven't used Leeks in a long time. Do they kinda have a slight onion taste? If so how many did you use for the soup? and how many Potatos? I have a good potato soup recipe they might be good in.

Congrats Chef Ryven. I think I am just going to start calling you Chef. *smiles*

3 Leeks, but only the white and light green parts.  About a pound of waxy potatoes (Yukon gold, red, or white.  I'm thinking Russet potatoes would give it a smoother texture after pureeing).

Leeks have a milder onion flavor than an actual onion.  I also used a half an onion as well.  I sweat the diced onion in some bacon fat then added garlic.  Cooked for about a minute then added the leeks and let them sweat on low heat with a lid on for another couple of minutes.  Added the cubed potatoes and let them cook for a minute before adding chicken stock and water until it just covered the vegetables.  Add bay leaves and let simmer for about 30 min.  Puree after that, added a little half & half though cream would work (h&h was all I had).  Seasoned it with salt and pepper.  Didn't quite taste right yet, so I added a squeeze of half a lemon for acid, and it sharpened it right up.

Autumn52

That sounds amazing. So you cooked the potatos in the chicken stock which was the base for the soup? That sounds really good. I usually don't puree my pototo soup since I like the added texture that it has. But the bacon grease and everything sounds really good. I also had never thought to add garlic. I normally add salt pepper and celery salt, but my soup is a milk/half and half based soup using a rue to thicken it. I think I will combine the two recipes and see what I get. Thanks for the recipe and the great ideas.

Hugs

I've come to love more creamy textured soups, at least with this one.  There are some that I enjoy the texture with such as Minestrone or Provencal, but I like a smoother texture with this soup.

There are several ways to thicken.  Pureeing is just one of them.  Adding cream is another, and a roux is the most common because it has the most thickening power with the least amount of effort or material put in.

I'm going to put some blue cheese on top of my soup and see how that tastes.  I'm betting delicious. :-)  So glad you are going to try it.

*hugs*

Autumn52

I made the soup Ryven and OMG it is so good I am eating it now. It was easy and it taste soooooo good. I love it. I am going to post exactly what I did in my recipe thread if your interested you can check it out. I did not have any bacon so I used butter but I am going to try it with the bacon next time.

Thanks for the tips.

I finally found green tomatoes at the farmer's market, so...I had to make these. Fried Green Tomatoes. ;D  They were AWESOME!  I made a mayonnaise based dipping sauce to go with them with hot sauce and chipotle chili powder, garlic, and salt.  It made for a delicious sandwich.

The nice thing about Sanrio with regards to food-stuff is that all the characters involve very simple shapes.  I'm no pastry-artist, and I could probably make that with nothing more than a shot-glass (to get the circle right)

That's the part that worries me.  I'm not a very artistic person though maybe I just need practice.  Back in high school I actually did some decent stuff.  It just took time.  I was actually shown how to make a rose out of marzipan or fondant in class, and I've made lotuses out of fondant before.  In regards to Sanrio, yeah.  Every character is pretty simple.  All you need is a circle to work from really.

Oniya

I personally think there's a big difference between 'food artists' and chefs.  I'd much rather be given a plate of something that tastes good than something that looks like a bit of modern sculpture.  Not to say that presentation isn't important - food should look appealing - but it's not the ultimate goal.

It really depends on the kitchen. In class, we were learning to make our own ideas. I did the most in depth work, and took me the longest. But in a normal, non student, kitchen- its unlikely that they'd do something without a stencil. [Most people I've worked with cannot draw.........]

How do you make panda bread!?!?
I must know. My name is Marina, I am new here and learning my way around.
This is an awesome string. I love it.

Oniya

Most 'character breads' are made by creating the character out of ropes of colored dough.  For example, you'd start here with four ropes of dark brown dough.  Two of those, you would then wrap with a layer of uncolored, white dough, and put them next to each other to make the face.  The two others get pinched along the top and arranged on top.  The final layer of green dough has to be kind of gently pressed into place around the ears. 

After baking, when you cut it crosswise, you get the panda pattern, just like you get a spiral pattern when you cut a jelly-roll.

I think for the ones that are 'closed' in the center, you use the wide, flat tip, and go sideways around the base.  Not sure about the open one.  This is from watching way too many 'Extreme Cakes' competitions, though.

She spins magic and moonlight in her meadows and streams, and seeks deep inside me,
and touches my dreams. - Harry Chapin

I look forward to seeing your results. ^-^

I may or may not have just put a penis on a couple of my gingerbread men. .... Now, to frost them.

 :o Hope you don't mind me sharing.



Quote"Broquet, a bacon bouquet, which was cooked up by Portland-based industrial designer Sarah Tisdale. Last fall, Tisdale had just fallen for for her next-door neighbor when something brought his spirits down. Tisdale brainstormed an appropriate way to cheer him up. "I wasn't going to get him flowers or anything like that," she remembers, "but I wanted to bring a smile to his face." The two had bonded recently over their love for a winning combination: whiskey and bacon. So Tisdale realized there was really only one option: A bacon bouquet. Her house swirling with smoke, she presented the neighbor with a dozen juicy pork blossoms."

That bouquet is seriously kind of awesome. And below my own gift! Warning... its a little messed up. I'm probably going to be sent straight to the Underworld for this.

Love it.

I want to do a penis cake actually. I use to do them but it has been a long time.

So, if I ever need a personal pastry chef, I know who to go to.

That Hello Kitty sushi, and the panda cake and robot cookies... My mind was blown.

Ryven



Pac-man cookies!  More stuff I want to make!

I could actually do that one.  At least, once I get a grass tip.

It's actually pretty simple.  I just thought the pretzel sticks and gold trap were pretty awesome. :D

Oniya

Definitely awesome.  I like the rainbow banding, too - again, simple when you know how, but an amazing effect.

I haven't updated my blog in a while.  I've been really slack about it, but I will at least give you guys some pictures of things I have made over the past 6 months in my classes.
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide


























I've spoilered them all because I haven't adjusted the size.  I feel if I made them smaller, it wouldn't do them justice. :-)

That all looks amazing. Is that broccoli cheese soup in that one picture? If so, could I have the recipe? That is my favorite soup beside potato.

All your plates look so tight and it all looks so completely wonderful.

Thank you for sharing.

I am now hungry.

(Which should mean that your presentation is 'doing it right'.)

I tried to make pretty food.  I guess I succeeded.  ::)

sava

You make me want to eat. Have you put together any food parties or events? I love to cook but what you do is...Cook! I think I slobbered on my shirt at the sight of that scallop.

Piece!
