[Waira]

-- foodie mates! ... I've been missing lots of superb looking foods-- sorry---- Demands at Sick Bay have continued to be irritatingly busy,... hitting some highlights here,.... but it's all over the top! -- y'all are killin' me!

>> O3 buddy, did you try to make that cantaloupe ice cream? i was wondering how they do it myself,.. fresh puree, or something cooked down..? cooking might change the flavor too much? This stuff tastes so much like fresh, and the texture is a bit more icey, so I think they use puree and some flavorings,... BTW, nectarines make a killer shake!... that smoothie sounds enticing bro', maybe another ice cream flavor to work on? --have you score a maker yet?.......... ah, loin medallions, been thinking of trying them for mini-pork Katsu pucks!

>>> Hec' brudda, what a garden you must have indeed! --your soils = .... clue me in mate, what's "rock" that you rolled up the 'maters in?

>>> Bushmaster'-- I feel for you man, you kill us with descriptions and prep' pics, them the locusts descend,... = *gone, just gone...* .... oooohhhggllahhh-*slobber* --that meatloaf, scalloped 'taters,...home made mozza',...... I gather, no jerky pics again?! LOLOL!

>>> A-Traaaaain! .... Ok, don't EVEN wave those whale boogers at me! I've dissected too may mollusks in school, so I know what foulness lies within,.. .
... ahhhhhh the piggie!! i was wondering when that was going down,.. OMG what an epic treat for the 'hood my friend! -- no further plated porn?? I guess the idea of pics went ... wooow,... so, who had the banana leaves and luau skills for this venture? The backhoe too! Talk about easy-peasy- So, how was the pig prep'ed for seasonings and such?... side dishes, sauces, c'mon man, talk it up! ......seriously brudda, if were even a semi-rich man, I'da flown out there for that meal!

>> @Dr.Bubbles *clank* holy crap!! What an amazing food bomb you dropped! My head is about to explode- ..F'ing-A, how are you still alive and/or not 500lb's?!
...I don't even know where to start,... .... I'll be looking up that meat sauce, reminds me of Sloppy Joes from waaaay back,... .... post up your recipe for that coffee rub please! On beef and pork, it pairs up so well, it's just amazing,.. I'm a total coffee snob too, so I'll have choice beans! ... any straight chili powders in there? --talk about perfect pairing,....... I love cherry wood's flavor,...


>> Aunty, great to see you come by luv! ...with the Goods no less! That is a beautiful presentation my friend, and so scrumptious looking,... ... meat savory, sweet, salt,...it's all there!

I've had mixed results with the cantaloupe ice cream. First batch was good, but not enough melon flavor and the last batch I used straight heavy cream instead of the hodge podge mix of half and half and cream for the first batch. All cream was just too creamy a flavor and overpowered the melon on the second batch. I'm kind of experimenting and just making it up as I go with this one, but here's what I've got going so far: I seed and remove the skin and chunk up about half to 3/4 a cantaloupe and toss it in a medium sauce pan. Mash it up really good with a potato masher to release as much of the liquid as possible. Add about a 1/4 cup of sugar and heat it to a light boil, reduce to low and simmer for an hour stirring occasionally. Removed from heat, poured everything into the blender and let it puree it. Then I added a couple cups or either the cream or the half and half along with another 1/4 to 1/2 cup of sugar depending on taste (started with 1/4 then added a smidge more after a spoon taste test). Let it blend some more on puree in the blender real nice then in the refrigerator for a couple hours. Then I just churned it in the ice cream maker.

Anyhow...still needs some more testing. I need to pick up a melon and some half and half and try again. Or maybe figure out a good egg yolk based custard base and give that a whirl.

@Waira between myself and my life long friend we have enough equpment to make jusy about anything easy.

The skill to cook her properly was nothing more than years of cooking and proper research. Even people in hawaii post videos on youtube hahah..

The seasoning was minimal. She got kosher salt and steam thats all. Sometines less is more.

Sides was a basic veggie boil with pototoes, onion, brussels, brocolli, cauliflower and a buddy came up from the coast and dropped 20lb of skrimps for the obes who didnt fancy digging through a carcas for their meal....

The rib meat and inner loins were as good as it gets

Good lord, I've been away from this thread way too long. Now that the gardens back up and running, game on! Glad to see you guys are crushing it. I just finished dinner and am still salavating going over the last few pages. Some very talented cooks in here.
@A-Train impressive Kaluah pig bro. I hope you had dibs on the cheeks and tongue! I did one a few years back, lots of work but worth it all! I want to smoke your herb and eat your food. Cheers!
Here's a few quick pics of dinners this week. 48 hour sous vide short ribs over truffle polenta, a house fav. A good cheeseburger. And some ridiculously fresh Ahi.
Happy eating and growing all!

Those tortillas look great. I have to ask, is that ketchup on the tacos?

I did the vegetarian for 5 days..eat what you like on the other 2 days and lost 20 lbs in 4 weeks..but you have to eat the veggies..tons o them and me jaw ached with the chewing..

Aunty, great to see you come by luv! ...with the Goods no less! That is a beautiful presentation my friend, and so scrumptious looking,... ... meat savory, sweet, salt,...it's all there!

Ah..@Waira what did you Miss...?......the sour..apple cider vinegar and olive oil dressing...

Hmmm..I have banana leaves...but I don't think even hubby could eat a whole piggie...at 1 sitting.....but..he'd kill himself trying.

The seasoning was minimal. She got kosher salt and steam thats all. Sometines less is more.

Good Luck @frgrower ..Talent like that you need to share...

Deconstructed prawn cocktail.....with a touch of chilli in the marie sauce to keep it interesting..soft boiled egg and mayo..



Hubby's breakfast....ham and pease pudding rolls..do you have pease pudding in the USA..?..pickled red cabbage..pickled onions and crisp iceberg slaw....he demolished it...

Do quadruple the fried onions..even if you waste some at the end of the day......everytime hubby walks past a food stall he licks his lips and says don't those burgers sausage smell Great..but it is actually the smell of the onions that his taste buds are reacting to...
advertise your presence with frying onions....
