Lately I have been spending some time each day perusing my copy of Samin Nosrat's Salt Fat Acid Heat. Today I followed her recipe for smoked honey sage chicken with fried sage salsa Verde. I made up my own recipe for sautéed garlic, shallot, shiitaki mushroom, and potato. #cooking #culinary #smoked #chicken #recipe #recipes #delicious
@Unus Nemo I eat potatoes a lot since they are one of my favorite foods. My favorite way to prepare them is diced and sautéed, but I vary what I mix in a lot. Rosemary is a perennial favorite.
@plan-A I did use clarified butter (ghee) for this. I always have some on hand but seldom remember to use it. So this was a very special treat! I'll keep sharing the things I make. I'm not formally trained in cooking, but it has become my greatest passion in recent years. I'd love your feedback.
@bobonthenet ama friend! that clarified butter is heat up at 30-40 degree celcius the butter in a pan and wait for the bruise to spoon away> after a while the fat is gone and it is clear as you can look trough it. This all is French L'Escoffier Cuisine.
nr 1 most difficult to make was a perfect omelette (egg) and I kid you not.
after a while the fat is gone and it is clear as you can look trough it.
Actually, it is quite the opposite. The milk solids are gone and the only thing that is left is the fat. Ghee (clarified butter) is actually pure unadulterated butter fat. Which is why it is clear. 😉 I also went to culinary school 😉.

I have never been a potato person, always preferring rice dishes. Though after swelling up to around 270 lbs (122.47 kg) I refactored my knowledge on nutritional needs 😉. I eat a Keto/ Carnivore like diet eating only none starchy vegetables that are low in carbs. I have lost weight over the last 4 months and now weigh in at around 210 lbs (95.2544 kg). My new nutrition plan is a lifetime commitment so even though I will include more carbs once I have reached a more healthy weight, I will never consume carbs at the rate I used to prior to my new lifestyle. I just find it unhealthy. I use the way I feel as my greatest metric.
There are many factors to ones fitness plan. Each plan must be individualized as there is not a one size fits all solution. The solution you maintain in your life must be sustainable. So we have to choose something that we can live with 😀.
Awesome! another foodie on the instance 😀. I think I was the only one sharing food posts before. I particularly like posts with lots of details and recipes 😀.
