new years
Jeff came into town and one morning we made Eggs Benedict, except with real bacon instead of the fake Canadian variety. Also, a slice of pineapple.

breakfast-stuffed-pepper
Miriam and Dan left this morning to visit San Francisco. They abandoned a fridge full of things nearly rotten. I have to eat as many of them as quickly as possible. It’s a food race!
On the plus side, their food is fancier than my food has been for a while.
This is a breakfast-stuffed-pepper on a bed of fried tortillas. It’s stuffed with scrambled eggs, peppers, onions, cheese and mushrooms (and butter and heavy cream, of course).
holliday and hollandaise, a DC experience
I’m spending some time back on the east coast and just visited Washington, DC. While there I made some healthy food, like Eggs Benedict:
some uses of seitan
For some reason I’ve been on a bit of a curry kick. Curry doesn’t make seitan stand on its own, but it certainly makes it taste good. And I have been getting a much better idea about how to make curry (this involves, most critically, red curry paste and milk).
Here is a bowl curry and seitan with rice.
a break
It has been over a week since I last posted, it’s been tumultuous. At least for me.
normal breakfast
I’ve posted a bunch of restaurant eating recently. I like eating at restaurants, especially when subsidized by my parents, but I haven’t been eating the majority of my meals out. And I certainly haven’t been eating the majority of my calories out.
While I like restaurants a lot, they generally don’t serve large quantities of whole grains. I’m convinced whole grains are wonderful and provide a stable and long lasting source of energy. So whenever I cook it’s whole grains. The one thing eating out has done is reduce the complexity of my meals at home. Basically I eat piles of brown rice and fruit.
This is a normal breakfast: Short grain brown rice, 3 eggs, shaved parmesan.
open face egg, mushroom and steak sandwich
This isn’t really that pretty. I miss Jamey and his egg assistance. I had some ground beef and I gently hard boiled some eggs. The interesting part of this is the mushrooms and I think I should have de-stemmed something. It still tasted good.
chicago
Chicago! I don’t have enough shelf space for my books so they‘re all in boxes indefinitely. I also have bunches of other boxes to unpack.
But we cooked breakfast this morning anyway. We couldn’t find a pepper grinder so Dan crushed pepper corns with the bottom of a bottle. It was a good breakfast, a fried egg and a piece of thick bacon over sauteed spinach, parmesan and toast.
miso béarnaise florentine
This was a recipe Jamey came up with. I have a consuming love for eggs benedict but I’d never made them. I will make them again now, but since I don’t care quite as much about presentation as Jamey does, these might be the prettiest homemade eggs benedict I’ll ever be involved with the making of.
