What's Cooking?

[Terrierman]

Tonight its a couple of filets, last of the farmer market brussell sprouts and an amazing late season sliced tomato - a brandywine.    Going to put some Trappist lemon marmalade on the sprouts.  Dessert will be Assumption Abbey fruitcake.

Edit:  That tomato tasted like it was August 5, not November 5.

For supper today I am going to braise some short ribs in a chocolate stout.  I'll do that on the egg with no lid on the dutch.  Think I'll throw an onion in too and of course some garlic.  To be accompanied by the last of Farmer's market broccoli, a green salad featuring farmer's market butter lettuce sugar snaps and tomato.  For football time, I'll fry some more of that chicken of the woods.

Sounds good. While I was in London and could get them I fixed a beef in stout with pickled walnuts.

Pickled Walnuts? 
Do tell.

Slightly off topic.  I like hot vinegar as a condiment.  So yesterday I brought home a quart of habaneros, a couple of poblanos, divided them between two quart jars, added five or six whole cloves of garlic and about a teaspoon of pickling spice in each jar, filled with white vinegar and put them in the cabinet to rest a while.  Will report later.  But I know how it will go.

Not much exciting lately. I turned the leftover cacciatore sauce into a meaty red sauce on Monday. On Tuesday, I did not cook. We attended the high school basketball game and ate at the concession stand. Tonight we will keep it simple.

A bistro style steak, a salad with home made ranch, and a baked potato half.

The problem with this tread? It has run so long and so well that most of us are out of ideas or trick to show off. This thread is the gold mine of good eats. And an inspiration for chefs, grill owners, and newly weds.

I want to know about pickled walnuts!

I found Opies pickled walnuts on a british food website Jollygrub.com and also on Amazon. I can't copy the description with my phone to post here. They sound interesting.

Yeah, haven't really cooked a lot recently and what I have cooked has already been covered here. I did get cooked FOR last night -- a really good white chili with a lot of green chilies. Good salad too, with a lot of chewy, crunchy stuff mixed in. A little good fortune came my way yesterday, so I popped for a bottle of bubbly.
