We are continuing to break in our new Treasure Truck purchase from last month. Our Charbroil BBQ. A simple 2 burner, but it’s a nice unit and works quite well.

Nice BBQ pork and corn on the cob. With mashed potatoes.

I just commented something similar on the other food porn thread. I'm on crutches, so I'm dependent on others to get food for me. I was hungry before reading the new posts. Now I'm famished!

Pasta and leftover veggie pizza

YVR Cockroach Oct 17, 2021 5:20 pm

Home-made pizza tonight but that's not the highlight.

Highlight is dessert. Fresh home-grown pineapple harvested this morning.

Good. I need pineapple advice. We planted in the spring. In the last month, leaves are starting to turn yellow. Any ideas?

Takes 3 years for a rooted head to fruit or so I hear (certainly took that long for this plant, and the one I first grew a decade ago). Leaves turn yellow? Not a good sign. Healthy plant, the leaves take a year or two to die, and always from the bottom. Outside? Too cold perhaps?

LOL. Highs in the 90’s until this week. Now in the 80’s. I’d guess the soil lacks something but I have no idea what specifically.

The mother plant grew in my neighbors garden next door.

YVR Cockroach Oct 17, 2021 9:55 pm

Try epsom salts. Too dry, too wet? Supposedly likes well drained. Maybe make the soil a bit more acidic (e.g., coffee grounds)

Maybe too much water?

https://homeguides.sfgate.com/mean-p...low-90728.html

Try letting the soil dry out a bit. Not the same, but aloe is very susceptible to over watering. I try to keep the soil lightly packed and damp but it's a delicate process. Hopefully it isn't as painful for you.

Dinner tonight was mutton kuthu roti that I bought and then added some extra egg while heating up. One of these days I'll make it myself... But it's hard to make flaky roti...

Last night I attempted cacio e pepe, a classic Roman pasta. It...wasn't good. I basically ignored the proportions in the recipe. It turns out a litttttle pepper goes a long way, and I needed a lot more of the starchy pasta water to make a coherent sauce, even though I used a lot of pecorino.

But at least now i know what to do differently next time.

You’ll knock it out of the park next time. I’ve had a few epic failures. It’s made me a better cook. (I hope)!!!

Chicken enchiladas with green chilis, black beans and corn, plus a red enchilada sauce.

Ma la noodles, hot and sour soup (made with Chinkiang vinegar), and marinated wood ear mushroom. We’re on an authentic Chinese food trajectory for the foreseeable future.

Tonight: pork stew and biscuits (and local corn)

I just googled to find a recipe, having never attempted this before. It’s basically a beef stew but with sweet potatoes, canned diced tomatoes, sliced mushrooms and green beans along with carrots and onions. Seasonings will be fresh thyme and Italian oregano from the herb garden. Normally I make stew in the crock pot but total cooking time is under 2 hours so I will keep it in the Dutch oven I use to brown the meat. I am using pork tenderloins even though all the recipes call for a fattier cut. Hopefully that won’t matter.

The vegetable cart showed up across from the clubhouse this morning. They featured, among other things, early Florida corn. The ears are small but I was told it’s sweet.

At one of several places in Duluth, GA. And unfortunately this restaurant didn't carry Topo as tasty as it is.

Taco hodge-podge tonight. Going out of town on Friday so we're cleaning out leftovers - small pieces of sirloin, roast turkey breast, tomatoes, an avocado, a couple limes, rice mixed with sautéed spinach, cilantro, etc. I have faith it will all come together as two nice two-taco dinner plates :).

You may need extra salsa.

for dinner... a large bowl of corn flakes, lentil soup... and a banana

M60_to_LGA Oct 20, 2021 4:24 pm

Pasta with grape tomatoes, kale and garlic, bathed in olive oil and doused with ungodly amounts of parmesan.

I haven't cooked for ages due largely to stress from my job situation, but last night I finally decided that was ridiculous. It was very cathartic, and now I'll be eating the rest of this for the next three days, I'm sure. I made rather a lot.
