I’m back to scream into the void!
In the last 24 hours, I’ve added:
4 Cups Water
More Jalapeno
Banana Peppers
Red Onion
Green Pepper
Garbanzo Beans
Yellow pear tomatoes
More mushrooms
Sauteed Kohlrabi
Kohlrabi Greens
Roasted Beef Femurs
Rosemary
Parsley
Highlights of the last 24 Hours:
The early taste tests were amazing. The broth was so clear, and I was really impressed with the depth and complexity of flavor I’d created. My first real entry about it was when I sat down with a bowl at 7am today.
“No broth tasting this time, not from the pot. But the bowl I poured… the broth though brown is so CLEAR… I am flabbergasted. 191F”
I added the extra jalapeño and banana peppers… I swear I thought it was a good idea. It wasn’t a bad one, per se-- just a spicy one.
After adding the femur bones and sautéed kohlrabi, it deepened the flavor a bit-- but didn’t cut the pepper heat, which is fine. Hence, my 9pm Entry:
“THASSA SPICY MEATBALL! Added green peppers to hopefully cool it some. 205F”
Currently eating my second bowl-- fifteen hours after the first, and 24 hours after beginning the cook. Its got a bit of an oily layer, which makes sense between the bones and the butter I sautéed the kohlrabi in.
I inhaled instead of swallowing at one point, so the heat is making my eyes water. Once I stopped forgetting how to breathe, though-- I realized the heat is more lingering on the tongue and lips than really being WAY too hot… I think I may have conflated temperature heat with Scoville heat.
Tastes damn good tho!
