...but that would be naughty, now, wouldn't it? biggrin.gif

This is a thread for any food-related discussion. Found a nice recipe? Please share it! Is there any particular cultural cuisine you wish to discuss? Perhaps you need some help with us pesky Yanks still not adopting the metric system? tongue.gif

I thought our forums were missing something in the way of real down-to-earth discussion and sharing of our culinary experiences. Sure, we see them a lot in Fan-fics, but we never really get to dig into them (bad pun intended) in the same way as actually discussing this world-within-our-world can. I am seeing more and more food segments in the fan-fics that I read, so I think the time has come for us to have an honest-to-goodness culinary discussion thread.

To kick things off, I would like to share a recipe of my own concoction... Veal Osso Bucco, a Northern Italian classic.

Veal Osso Bucco & Sauce Accompaniment

Yield: 4 Portions


Ingredients
Veal Shank w/ marrow bone: 1lb
AP Flour: As Needed

Red Wine: 1/2Cup
Tomatoes: 12oz
Veal Stock: 1qt
Lemon Zest: 1Tbsp
S&P: TT
Marjoram: 1tsp
*Gremolata: 1oz
-Gremolata
-Parsley: 3tsp
-Lemon Zest: 1tsp
-Garlic Clove: 1Ea

Mise en Place
-Clean, Sanitize workspace
-Gather utensils, pots, pans
-Gather ingredients
-Small Dice Mirepoix, Tomatoes
-Zest Lemons
-Mince Garlic
-Fine-Chop Parsley

Method
1. Preheat Oven 350*, add Oil, Butter to heated pot.
2. Season, brown Veal.
3. Remove Veal, add Mirepoix, Garlic, sweat.
4. Deglaze pot, Red Wine.

6. Return Beef to pot, add Lemon Zest, place in oven.
7. Braise, 3 to 4 hours, or until tender.
8. Remove Veal, degrease sauce

10. Rub Veal w/ Gremolata, return to sauce to reheat.
11. Finish w/ fresh Marjoram.
12. Garnish with Gremolata on the marrow bone.

Believe me, don't skip the marrow bone, it's really that important to this dish. wink.gif

This is from about 20 years ago - there was a trend in the cuisine around here (Midwest) where "Cajun" food was typically burnt (or was it "Creole" food? I can't quite recall . . .)

I do know that real Cajun/Creole food is not burnt! It's blackened sometimes, but that's not quite the same thing . . .

Lol, oh ok! Khajiit didn't know there was a period when that was a trend. Bet the Cajun and Creole folks of Louisiana weren't happy about that!

Khajiit thinks the Daedric "O" character would look badass on a jack-o-lantern!

Just made very spicy jambalaya brown rice as a side dish for some salmon I'm baking up. Going to be delicious.

*Urp* Nope. Don't. Salmon is probably the only fresh water fish I don't like.
