Contrary to this dishes title, for me the point of making red beans and rice is the andouille sausage. Smoky, porky, awesome. The beans, the sauce, and the rice are a bonus. Throw on some hot sauce and prepare for culinary bliss.
Red Beans and Rice
Ground Beef and Scarlett Runner Bean Chili
Normally, I don’t go for beans in chili. It makes for less room for the meat. But sometimes in life, you have to compromise, and sometimes, that means putting beans in your chili.
That said, it doesn’t mean the chili has to suck. It definitely should not suck. This chili doesn’t.
Pork Chops with Roasted Poblano Sofrito, Scarlett Runner Beans, and Rice
When cooked right, pork chops are awesome. When overcooked they are gnarly. This makes them perfect for sous vide, which lets you nail perfect every time.
Lobster Thermichowder
Thermichowder – a cross between lobster thermidor and lobster chowder. Whatever you want to call it, it’s super tasty.
Fritto Misto di Calamari
Calamari fritto misto style! Light airy batter, spicy tomato sauce deliciousness. Move fast, they’ll be gone in a flash!
Dungeness Crab Salad with Frisee and Arugula
Sweet and salty crab, dressing that creamy mustardy goodness, juicy cucumber bites, and a bit of bite from the daikon and the lettuces. Overall, this combines to be light, refreshing, and utterly delicious.
Potato Latkes
A pancake, made of potatoes. Fried potatoes. F r i e d.
Deliciousness maximized.
Pad See Ew
Pad See Ew is both the Thai dish I like the most and is dead easy to make. Slice up three things, boil some noodles, and fry em up with some sauce. Bang! bliss.
Yellow Chicken Curry
Chicken Curry + IPA == Happiness
Pulled Lamb Pita w/ Tzatziki
Free yourself from the tyranny of pulled pork!
Seriously.
You’ve had pulled pork 1000 times, you never had anything like this: Smokey lamb with deep and mysterious chile flavors from the rub, and salted perfect.
