Spring madness

Fertility festival at Tagata Shrine, Aichi, takes place every year on March 15 when you can encounter phallus-shaped snacks.




In case you are wondering, they are chocolate-covered bananas.



...and okonomiyaki-coated frank.

I hope it is not about cannibalism.


Happy spring!

Der Wienerschnitzel Puppet



Via So Much Pileup. Why would children need to animate their own wienerschnitzel?

Arise Sirflank. Phil Lees on my mind.

Flank steak is a super flavoursome cut (but not the prettiest) so why not combine the tasty flank with a show pony cut like the Sirloin.

The two cuts make for a superduper tasty cut of beef. Especially when you cook Sirflank in the mid 50°C range for 40 odd minutes, wok sear to finish and serve.

Sirloin meet flank

Australian grain fed sirloin on the left, Australian wagyu flank on the right.

Sirloin meet flank, hello activa TG-B

Plus fat

Don't waste that wagyu fat.

Fold

Rongs patented folding technique.

Vacuum

Compress and leave overnight.

Most likely a pretty picure to follow.

I am off to bed now. Big Friday and Saturday services ahead and no wife to enjoy an after work whisky with.

Oh well. Night to all.

What a day, I'm shagged.

Fruit salad

Compressed

Low Methoxy Pectin and Calcium Lactate will hopefully allow us to stick this fruit together.

Why you ask? Well why not.

But you try to explain to someone who doesn't speak the same language as you about how a bond forms between LM Pectin and a Calcium source .



Thanks to Alex & Aki of course.

Cooler Fun.

LN2 Avocado
Super freezing avocados

It is an amazingly simple task when it comes to blending super frozen items into a fine snow (vivid green coloured snow in this case) especially when you take food close to -196°C in a matter of minutes. The powder/snow that we created made a great finish for a tomato hops broth with a garnish of pure halloumi noodle which we also blended and bound with a percentage of Methocel A15C to form a wonderful salty cheesy take on pasta.

Another cool use for LN2 is its ability to turn liquids into little pearls of yumminess, coconut pearls in this case. We used our mighty Pacojet to spin 100% pure frozen Thai mangos into a creamy sorbet then finished this little pre-dessert with coconut pearls made from fresh Thai coconut cream and then finished the shot glass with freeze dried "organic" banana granules which of course came from Switzerland.

Cooking with Monkey

Ok so after watching people stack food on animals, I ended up spending the morning watching Japan's most famous chimpanzee and his dog board trains and do sit ups and plant rice!

I even learnt how to make udon noodles.....

Parental Vegetable Fun Emails (G)

Does one of your baby boomer or older parents have access to the intertubes and even their own email and spend their days emailing you inane hallmark style emails full of "jokes" and other tidbits to "brighten up your day"

Mine does. So I thought I would post the following so you too can feel my pain.
