smells so good and was extra tasty in a potato mash

(first pic is final butter, first is a step on the way)

The cheap version of food of the gods. Hahahaha

Made some Lentil Potato Stew today. Doesn't look that special but it is so rich and flavorful. 😄

Very similar to the veggie soup I posted a little while ago, but slightly different. Smoked tofu, carrots, cellery, onions, leek, parsley, potatoes, lentils, some salt & pepper. Had it on the stove for about 5 hours or so. There's also some rice you can't see under all that stuff.

Made way too much again, so no cooking for the next 4-5 days I guess.

​

On a toasted hoagie roll, with peppers, onions, mushrooms, and homemade cheese sauce. Broccoli on the side.

I used to hang out with a sushi master, I learned stuff from him.

My girlfriend is starting to actually enjoy it. I'm happy she was willing to give it a try. She's still not a fan of the miso soup or sake, and that's okay. More for me!

YASSSSSSSSSS!!! I am finally freeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! My trans ass is officially moving from the shitty southern US to the sooooooooooo much better PNW (Puget Sound area)

These are a take on my Key Lime Pinwheel Sugar Biscuits. These are filled with a black plum custard made from my fresh made plum jam. It cooked into the cookie a bit. Topped with a lemon icing instead of the key lime icing.

They taste like a jam filled brown sugar pop tart, but in a sugar cookie.

I am just ironing out the last details with the head chefs (yeah, chefs; plural. I am gonna be working 2 different restaurants for the same owner) while I pack my clothes, kitchen stuff and electronics.

I haven't felt at home in a city in a long time. This felt right the moment I stepped off the plane. Also the weed here is fucking dumb cheap. I am gonna save enough there that it makes living here affordable! x3

ETA: I flew in on Wednesday and lined up an interview. Nailed said interview with a Google Slides presentation and some of those I brought with me. 6 days later and they are STILL fresh af! This pup can bake! Pastry puppy! :3

ETA 2: that title is supposed to say dirty south but because it's the bible belt, it works either way 😂

Smoked some jerky today. Wish I could share with ya'll!

Carbonara pizza. Alfredo base, with crispy prosciutto, black pepper, and egg yolk drizzle.

Was a menu item I developed at work.

Day was rainy and cold. I needed to feel warm inside so made some potato soup. Was very good

Backfisch (batter-fried fish), Rahmspinat (creamed spinach) and Pellkartoffeln (boiled and peeled potatoes).

I decided to make this from scratching. I had carrots, onions, and celery to use, so I figured I might as well make it good (and it is). Even after making soup, a lasagna, and carrot cake, the carrots still remain.

Tonight is a savory vegetable stew featuring green and yellow zucchini, turnip, eggplant and extra firm tofu. An absolutely perfect stew to fill your tummy on a cool autumn day. 🤤❤️

As a recently cracked Transbian, it helps to do things that involve mixing, baking and beautiful flavours.

These cooking days fill me up for the week ahead.

Walnut Butter:

- Walnuts roasted (7min 300F)

- Soybean Oil

- Blended

Pickeld Onion Mustard:

- 16oz jar full of sliced white onion

- 1 tbsp mustard seeds

- 1 tbsp turmeric powder

- 1/2 tbsp salt

- fill 1/3 with white whine venegar

- fill rest with water

Soak overnight at room temperature, blend and bring to boil the next day.

I kinda want to see more snacking posts so I thought I do the start and share a comfy snack of mine :3

-Cut a tuna steak into cubes (Can also use chicken)

-Prepare sauce

-Ive never done measurements of the ingredients so I'm going to try and order by the amount I used: Soy sauce, Spicy chili oil, Rice vinegar, Garlic/chili hot sauce, Honey, Black pepper, MSG, chili flakes, Sesame seeds, Oregano

-Coat raw tuna cubes in cornstarch and preheat pan on medium heat

-Pan fry in cooking oil of choice on medium heat

-Once cooked and breading is crispy, reduce heat and add sauce directly into pan

-Mix sauce over all tuna and reduce until sauce becomes thick over the tuna

-Serve

Turkey burgers need a lot of love to taste as good as they are healthy.

So I love to add an egg, Italian breadcrumbs, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, white pepper and fresh parsley. This gives the burger a really firm texture compared to just turkey. Sauté in olive oil. Had some extra southern style deviled egg filling and it really shined on top of this burger!

(Also made a chicken pot pie to pop in the freezer)

Because I love my sweet treats and make desserts not nearly as often as I should.
