food Sunday dinner

[Alynne]

Rainy Saturday, good day to stay in and make beef stew.

Sunday night with crusty sourdough bread. Even better.
Sunday farmers market and fermenting

Love beef stew and yours looks fantastic, but I am not quite ready to embrace Fall yet. It was just 94 here the other day. Another week or so and I will be ready for chili and pumpkin beer, but I am still on the IPA's with the grill rockin' some chicken atm.

Final stew pic, and much in the freezer for the winter. Jay T, thanks! I need to make bourcht, gumbo, short ribs...many things that are better with a cool kitchen.

 

[Alynne]

I may have overreached this weekend. The plan is pot roast:

Ok, got that in the oven.

Need to bone a chicken for stock, ferment a batch of cukes, pickle green tomatoes, make red chili mash ans process some red tomatoes for freezer.

We'll see how far I get.

more beer/liquor!

lol.

     Beef + iron + heat =  . Looks good!

 

[Alynne]

Pickles done, chicken is in the pot and beer is good.

 

[Alynne]

Might have over bought at the farmers market.

So I got a chicken and made a compound butter with rosemary, parsley, lemon zest and juice, garlic, one fish pepper. CI spatchcocked chicken with roasted veggies and sautéed chard and beet tops.

A most excellent meal. I love farmers markets

 

[Alynne]

Got caught up and only took one more pic. This is just before going in the oven. Love the CI for a crispy skin!

 

[JayT]

I can smell that from here! Would have loved to have seen a finished pic of the roast/stew.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Alynne is OWNING this.

 

[Alynne]

I tipped my finger prepping the veggies to roast with the chicken. Completed the meal, but lost the will for pics and posting. Will have leftovers for dinner tonight, so maybe one to come.

 

[Alynne]

Veggies roasted in chicken fat reheated with pulled chicken.

 

[grantmichaels]

Have a crown ..
 

 

[Alynne]

So mean. And the veggies were mushy and nasty. Picked the rest of the chicken, making a quick broth and soon to have Asian noodles.
Will still have one breast for tomorrow.

 

[grantmichaels]

So mean.

 
It was intended to be nice ... so that didn't work, lol ...

 

[Alynne]

I can take a little mean.

 

[Alynne]

Turkey carcass in the pot. Gumbo in the works. Alton's oven roux is next.

 

[Alynne]

The roux has begun.

Into a 350 oven.
Not sure how well the color shows, but going from butterscotch to peanut butter.

Spice mix. You would think I know better than to smell just after blending. "Cough, cough, sneeze, wheeze"
