What Are You Eating/Drinking?, The Tastiest Thread Around Options

[ghastley]

Just had a pizza

Please tell me it's NOT a chocolate chip pizza!

[mirocu]

Don´t worry, it wasn´t!

It was a spicy meatball kind of pizza. I always go for this one

I just put this in the oven... and it is tormenting me as I write.. It's a twist on Mac n' Cheese, and tastes just amazing.. really... even if it does sound slightly unorthodox. It's actually become my "go to" Mac and Cheese recipe, I like it much better than any other variations I have tried.
I typically add a couple of dry, cured chorizo sausages, about 1/4 of a red onion, and sometimes a julienned red bell pepper. Occasionally, I'll also garnish the portions with crispy, fried sage leaves.

Makes between 4 and 6 servings, depending on how hungry or oinkish people feel. Because of the high liquid content, this reheats well the next day, so no need to be concerned about rubbery leftovers.

ArtemisNoir2, that sounds amazing! I have added jalapeños to mac and cheese, but this is a whole new dish!

I have never had leftover cake, leftover custard, and leftover whipped cream at the same time before. The result: deconstructed trifle.

Sounds Awesome!

Easter brunch: sausage with wild rice plus white chocolate chip pancakes.

[Acadian]

Easter brekkie: Hard boiled egg with butter & hot sauce. Toasted english muffin with butter and vegemite. Slice of bacon. Coffeeee.

(Chocolate bunny and jelly beans to follow)

[haute ecole rider]

Easter dinner: Ham steak, German potato salad (with my own modifications, just like my TES IV!) and asparagus. Chased down with a bottle of amber lager. Yumm!

To be followed by balsamic strawberries over angel food cake. Like, right about now.

Some friends are coming over for dinner so I made hautee’s Cloud Ruler Temple Beef Stew.

[haute ecole rider]

Yummy! How did it go over?

[Grits]

Unbelievably well. People ate like it was their last meal. I have the tiny bit of pot-scrapings that were left over heating on the stove right now, and there might be blood shed over it. I see pieces of buttered bread pre-positioned on the counter already. The wolves are down here circling. I doubt if it will meet a bowl or plate!

Our friends who came over last night are very fitness-aware and like me and Mr. Grits have reached the age where it’s best to push back from the plate long before you feel full. They had not eaten all day in preparation for dinner, so it was a feeding frenzy, lol.

Thank you for that recipe, haute! It is a real winner!

[haute ecole rider]

Of course! You're welcome!

Glad to know your fitness-aware friends saved their appetites all day for the good stuff.

[Grits]

I just found two of those little foil-wrapped chocolate Easter eggs buried (hidden?) under some cough drops. Score.

[Acadian]

^ ^
Yum, chocolate!

I'm having corn on the cob with a glass of Tamikas red.

[Grits]

Yum, corn! I love summer.

Pancit!

Pancit! Damn, that brings back memories. We usually eat pancit with little sweetbreads we call puto maya. Frickin' delicious, I say.

Get me a recipe for the Puto maya and I'll make it.


** EDIT = Got one, thanks! My son will love that!

Bad idea to ask me for a recipe, mALX. I'm a devourer, not a maker!

Anyway, here's a rough sketch, since I dimly remember making it once with Da Krew. And this one's a variation to boot! You're actually going to taste Ulenian Cuisine! If you survive eating it, I'll give you a medal.

PUTO MAYA
2 Cups cake flour
1 Cup sugar
4 to 5 egg whites
2 Tablespoons of Baking powder
1/4 Teaspoon salt
1 and 1/2 cup of water
1/4 evaporated milk
Yellow food coloring
*
FLAN
4 egg yolks
1 can of condensed milk (300)
2 Teaspoons of lemon juice
----
HOW TO
----
First we'll start with the flan
---
Separate the white from the yolk; keep the white and set them aside, we'll need them for later.

In a medium bowl, combine egg yolks, condensed milk, and lemon juice.

Stir them circly until they're blended.

Pour that mixture into little individual containers that are greased. I think you guys call them moulds?

Cover them with a cheesecloth and steam them on low heat for 8 minutes.

When its done, remove and let them cool.
----
Now, for the second part, we're going to do the Puto Maya.
----
In a medium bowl, combine egg whites, evaporated milk and sugar.
Blend them until the mixture is baby smooth.

Combine cake flour, baking powder and salt in a separate bowl.

Keep stirring it until they are completely combined.

Pour the earlier egg mixture and the food coloring.

Mix them all until they're smooth; ensure that there's no lumpy lumps in the batter.

Scoop the mixture and pour it over the flan we made earlier; fill it nearly to the top.

Cover them with a cheesecloth and steam them on low for another 10 minutes.

Remove from steamer, let them cool, and voila! You have just made Ulenian Magic Food!

*faints from sustained migraine for trying to remember the correct details on how to make the damn things*

This is fantastic, Uleni! And much different than what I found on the internet, too! Thank you for your straining, I appreciate it a lot!
