For brunch today, I made creamy, soft-scrambled eggs. Instead of eating it with toast, I sliced a leftover baked potato and fried the slices, spooning the egg on top of the slices as I ate it by hand.
I could probably put an appropriate meat on top of those potato rounds, spoon some soft-scrambled eggs on that, add a layer of sauteed greens with onion and garlic, and top with a roasted cherry tomato. Someone with better presentation skills than me could transform that into an Instagram-able cute, little stack. Call it a deconstructed hash or a breakfast potato canape.
Yeah, it looks tighter than it is in the pic I guess. Still far from perfect w/r/t shaping and slitting down the middle let it spread too much but it’s nearly there.
Looks solid. Definite points off for lack of whipped cream. That’s happened at Chez Melkerson before and the solution has been to go to the store and get some. At least that is what I’m forced to do. Wife can’t eat 'em without it.
I, on the other hand, eat my pancakes with maple syrup, and the stuff I like is not that easy to get (there is a store nearby that sells some good stuff, but it’s at a huge markup) so I monitor my stockpile closely to prevent this type of disaster.
I did. It was a decent watch and some great photography (cinematography? not sure what the right word). Didn’t find anything extremely educational, but I think it’s because our backgrounds are somewhat similar in a broad sense.
Did I put more Tajin on my fried rice since I opened up about my addiction? Yes, yes I did.
Interesting. Flaxseed oil is not cheap, but it’s also something we always have on hand for salad dressing. I don’t think I am tryhard enough to do multiple hour long bakes in the oven in the heat of summer, but I may try using it instead in my usual stovetop reseasonings.
Flaxseed oil is the opposite. It’s one of the lowest smoke point oils, and it’s reactive even to just light. It’s almost always sold in dark bottles, and unlike most oils, it should be refrigerated.
lol, guess that’s why I don’t use it. I think I had sunflower seed oil in my head, for some reason. Too many oils nowadays. Back when I was younger we had vegetable oil, olive oil and canola oil. that’s it.
