Takoyaki experiment No.1
Now I think the name of the food itself is a joke! Why?
When turning them the first time, the little buggers look like octopi, wobbly and soft with a little dome on the other side and a mess that kinda looks like legs on the other.
And they try to get away from you!!
Japanese sense of humour! 👍😃

Something I’ve been wanting for a long time finally crossed my path: A takoyaki pan!! 🐙

I'm in a recipe creating/experimenting mood.
Somebody get me some rich people.
Leftovers pizza.
Roasted pepper, chopped bits of bbq pork, pepperoni, and roast garlic.
Homemade 'za sauce from locally-grown San Marzano tomatoes.

Okay, I made the muffins. I ate two muffins. I guess I should stop procrastinating.
I'm not sold on this recipe, but they're still good if you put enough butter on them.
#AskFedi: What are your top three seasonings please?

Made myself a double turkey smashburger with mango habanero seasoning, Tillamook pepper jack cheese, Grillo’s pickles, avocado mayo, and mustard.
The fries are salted with Lawry’s seasoning salt and air fried.
Ima just make myself a nice pot of mussels with white wine, garlic, shallots, tomatoes, and parsley — they feel so decadent comma but they are actually very economical.
And then I'm gonna pour myself a glass of the same Spanish white that I'm using In the mussels, cut myself some fresh French bread for dipping in the sauce (which I'm going to reduce with whipping cream).
And enjoy a lovely evening of Pieces Coming Together.
If I have one cooking tip that will make your life easier, it's roast up garlic in advance, and freeze it.
Tonight's dinner, fish and chips, is remarkably simple to make precisely because I prepped a big bag of garlic Sunday night.
I think we'll try the octopus beer.
Flour, beer, roasted garlic, salt.
That's it.
Buy da man outta noodles and sorel, and Ima try making ackee and saltfish, even though it's not from my island.
Anyone know what happened to cydrax? Can't find it anywhere in Canada. Just peardrax.
Me: Chicken tiki massala, with oven brussels sprouts and broccoli witha honey mustard sauce.
Teenagers home from school: not hungry now might eat later.

We have definitely reached "custom tea blend" season.
Today's sets are:
Star anise, coriander seeds, fennel, green peppercorn, bit of bay leaf, Sri Lankan cinnamon, clove, and cardamom.
It's a habit I learned from an old roommate. It's funny how you carry people with you even when you're not in contact anymore.
I only did three, one of which is already on the stove, but I realized afterwards I probably could have used the cat cups to make more.
Also, I need a dedicated chai pot. I'm thinking something titanium that I can also take camping. Considering something with a French press lid, even though I have a Bodum for home.
It would probably give me the maximum versatility.
Homemade egg rolls with homemade plum sauce.
I would like it be known that Fajita Friday is entirely the fault of @C0redump
Insofar as tasty goodness can be considered a "fault".
Not my Caribbean ass enjoying the golden crispy deliciousness!
Super cheesy nightshade casserole.
It's kind of like eggplant parmesan, except I also threw in roasted peppers.
The problem is waiting for it to cool down enough that it doesn't burn the roof of your mouth right off.
Is there anything better than bread fresh out of the oven?
Even at 3:30 in the morning while you wait for laundry to finish.
