Sauteed Veal Liver “Hawaii”

>
>
Here is how old I am:
When I got to name a new dish and it has pineapple in it, the first thing that comes to mind is “ala Hawaii”, just like in the good old day’s when everything was more simple and less complicated. What can I say, old habits die hard 🙂
However, this garnish of pineapple, tomato and scallion in red wine cream suited the veal liver perfectly and I thoroughly enjoyed it for tonight’s dinner.

Bon Appetit ! Life is Good !

Pork And Spinach Dumplings With Bok Choy And Straw Mushrooms In Chili Broth

>
>
I used to go through the trouble of making my own dumpling wrappers and steamed bun dough for my Asian dishes. A few weeks ago I had dinner at my neighborhood Chinese restaurant and I asked the owner if he would be willing to sell me some of the fresh wrappers for Jiaozi (steamed or boiled dumplings) and Baozi (steamed buns). To my big surprise, he agreed! Since then, I usually go at least once a week and get me some fresh wrappers for the days meal. Why not get them fresh, good quality, cheap and ready made if you can. However, I still like to make my own fillings, somehow I prefer to know exactly what’s in them 🙂
The filling for the boiled dumplings I prepared today consisted of the following:
Ground pork, chopped blanched spinach, whisked egg white, chopped water chestnuts (for crunch), salt, cayenne, sesame oil. Putt about one teaspoon of filling onto each wrapper, moist edge with water, fold over and squeeze the edges shut. Add to salted boiling water, reduce to simmer and cook until done. drain and add to soup or eat plain with a dipping sauce.

Sauteed Pickled Herring And Potato Patty (“Pommes De Terre Macaire” With A Twist)

>
>
Once a regular item on a menu, I have not seen pommes macaire on a menu for many years. What a shame, since they are such a great dish and so easy to prepare. Another thing that baffles me is that whenever I ask folk’s if they like pickled herring, the answer is usually no. Then how come I see pickled herring and/or roll mops on just about every supermarket shelf? Somebody must be buying 🙂
>
So when I had some leftover baked potatoes, I first thought of making another twice baked potato, but I cooked that often lately so I wanted to come up with something different and yummy, so here it is : Herring and potato patty, served with spicy potatoes and wasabi.

Fussili Col Buco With Venison Bolognese, Vodka And Gorgonzola

>
>
Yesterday I got some fresh ground venison from a friend visiting from Tennessee.
I am usually not a big fan of game but since he asked me to prep something for dinner, I came up with this dish which turned out to be pretty amazing 🙂
Obviously, if you don’t eat game, you can substitute the venison with any other ground meat. Traditionally, the alcohol to cook game with would be gin (juniper berry flavor), but I don’t drink that stuff so I don’t have it at home. However, vodka and chopped juniper berries did the trick here.

: simmer until meat is tender, check/adjust seasoning

: meanwhile, cook fussili col buco

Schwäbischer Zwiebelrostbraten Mit Pommes Frites (Swabian Style Rib Eye & Fries)

>
>
One of any true Swabian and Austrian favorite dishes, zwiebel rostbraten is usually served with spätzle and a small salad.
For my lunch today I substituted the spätzle with “Hans Special Fries” and omitted the salad. I also added capers and a bit of the capers pickle liquid to the sauce. I have done that for many years and although not original, it will enhance the flavor of the sauce positively.

Bon Appetit ! An Guata !

“Easy Does It” # 5 – Cucumber, Dill & Sour Cream Salad

>
>
Dear Friend’s
Although most of my followers are culinary professionals, there is also a large segment of followers who are just starting to enjoy cooking on a slightly higher than basic level. I have therefore decided to publish, under the moniker “Easy Does It“, from time to time some very basic recipe variations of dishes which otherwise might seem complicated to some folks. I will break them down to the easiest, most simple instructions, so that those of you who are intimidated by elaborate recipes will be able to prepare these dishes properly, adjusted to your taste and liking, right from the get-go.
Enjoy :-)

Salad made with cucumbers, sour cream or yogurt and dill is served in many countries, of course under many different names but with basically the same ingredients. I grew up in Swabia in Southern Germany, were gurkensalat was part of many meals, either served as part of a mixed salad (salat teller) or by itself as accompaniment to a main dish. It is made with cucumbers (any type), salt, pepper, a dash of sugar, vinegar and either sour cream or yogurt, .

Spicy Pork Rib Souse

>
>
While this is not your typical souse, it is without a doubt a great one. Souse comes in many forms and tastes and each source will tell you that only their’s is original and worth eating. Sometimes souse is eaten hot, but most of the times cold or rather at room temperature to ensure the full development of flavor. Souse is served in many countries, usually under different names. (Click here for more info ). Most times I use pig’s feet or pig’s ears, but this time pork rib’s tickled my fancy. My inspiration for this particular recipe came when my neighbor Asis brought me a bottle of “Trinidad Moruga Scorpion Hot Sauce (Capsicum Chinense), prepared by his mother back in Trinidad. It is by far the best hot sauce I have ever tasted, very hot but at the same time very fruity and flavorful. Poetry in a bottle 🙂
