Sautéed Swinging Beef
Went balls to to the walls tonight with shockingly mellow male-order ingredients. Delicately seasoned bull frites stir fried in butter with caramelized cipollini onions and garlic, finished with basil pesto.
Breakfast in America
The hankering for the Orange Choco Scones showed its salivating face once again. This time, it brought Jalapeño Simple Syrup to the table. Accented with lavender, the Sweet Jalapeño Yogurt released the scone’s full flavor.
Paired with Jalapeño-Orange Pekoe Tea.

Indulgent Pesto Mushrooms
Stem/clean some Cremini/Portobello Mushrooms. (They’re actually the same mushroom, just different ages!)
Arrange Shrooms on a plate and cover with a bowl.
Microwave for 30-45 sec.
Fill warmed Mushrooms with Basil Pesto and, if on-hand, top it off with a candied Jalapeño.
Again, cover the plate and microwave for another 1.5-2 minutes at about 1000MW.
For additional umami, garnish with roasted seaweed (Kizami Nori きざみのり).
10-Minute Citrus-Poached Catfish
Fill a skillet with a 1/2 inch of water, add a splash of citrusy vinegar — Calamansi Balsamic was on-hand for this instance– or a squeeze of fresh lemon.
Bring to a boil over medium / 60% heat.
With scales down, cook the catfish for 4-5 min in the uncovered skillet.
Flip the fish, add spinach atop, and cover. Cook another 3-4 min, or until the fish and greens are cooked. There should only be a little liquid remaining.
Remove from heat.
Using two turners, flip the fish and leaves onto a plate so the fish has a vibrant bed of green.
Drizzle broth atop the finished product.
Bon Appetit!
