11 pm and i just finished a duck and goose liver pate for a new years eve charcuterie plate i am putting together tomorrow. Going to wait until it chills to really give it a taste as thats how it will be eaten.

Had a friend over last thursday who is a big deer hunter and getting into waterfowl. Claims he doesnt like deer really other than jerky or summer sausage. MAYBE a smoked backstrap. Did herb coated loin in the cast iron and finished in the oven and topped with a red wine reduction, seared duck breast shot that day with a smear of rough blackberry jam, miso chili brussels sprouts and a nice cauliflower puree.

Made pho from scratch last weekend for the wife and her coworkers who said thats what they wanted for their kindergarten team christmas party / game night. A nice 2 day affair but holy crap was it good.

Lastly a picture of a fire steak done with sous vide. 2 hours at 122 then finished and basted in a cast iron skillet.

Last night I forgot to post dinner. Tried something new based off a New York Times recipe that I decided to change. The side dish is chickpeas, tomato, spinach, onion, and garlic with turmeric, cumin, garam masala, and a golden curry blend. The garnish is feta.

I overcooked the skirt steak. 30 seconds can make a huge difference.

Use the sous vide to confit a chicken, then fry the skin like bacon. Chill the meat and use it in a salad where you sprinkle chicken bacon bits over it.

At Thanksgiving, I used the sous vide to hold the mashed potatoes at service temp while I finished other dishes.

Sous vide your roasts and steaks to your perfect temp and then sear them for color.

Butter poached lobster from a sous vide is incredible.

Just do it.

We picked up some lobster tails from Costco to poach in the sous vide tomorrow.

Great! I am headed to the fishmonger to buy some as well. Google Serious Eats Lobster for the best advice I have found.

Nancy and I are old farts. We cannot make it to midnight. However, I did manage to make a decent New Years Eve meal.

The wine - Sofia bubbles

The appetizer - mussels in a wine broth

The main - butter poached lobster tail (via the sous vide)

The side - sauteed broccoli rabe

The dessert lemon pie gelato

Lobster tails are currently bathing in butter, lemon and a little tarragon at 140 degrees 😁 

The one I did last night was set to 132. I hope yours is perfect!
