Shallots in your kitchen is proof you are a great home cook. Have you ever seen the small gray Griselle shallots? If you’ve not yet discovered them, we highly recommend seeking them out. They’re a game changer

Stuffed Peppers!🫑 how come we don’t make these anymore? Seems like somehow stuffed peppers went away somewhere in the late 80s. Not really sure why. Got a little leftover rice, and pizza sauce from the other night, add some ground beef and sausage a little seasoning, and you got yourself a delicious dinner. I think we should all make stuffed peppers more often.

Hospitality services including making stuffed peppers at your home and having them in your fridge. That’s what we do.

Parmigiano Reggiano has a thick rind with tons of flavor. I wouldn’t even dream of throwing it away, I have a bag of rind pieces in my freezer that I pull out every time I make risotto, a soup or a stew. What do you put your Parm Rinds in?

Fennel is crispy like celery with a pleasant licorice flavor. Tenkasu adds crispy bursts instead of croutons. Great salad is about flavor and textures working together.

Fennel seed and pork classic combo, add crushed black pepper, and Szechuan peppercorns in a mortar and pestle, and you have the beginnings of a unique and outstanding rib rub.

before they get wrapped, they got a combination of barbecue sauce and c***r vinegar, and instead of using butter, I like to wrap my ribs in pork lard.

I often hear people smoke for 5 to 6 hours for a rack of ribs. A big thick brisket can handle more smoke, pork rib ribs. In my opinion require a gentle or smoke and a quicker cook. We smoke it 290° for two hours and that’s all the smoke my pallet requires. Haven’t had anybody who’s eaten them object yet.

Sicilian butcher demonstrated this technique to me with FAR better skills than I. I encourage you to follow him for more delicious ideas and great technique.

Butchers like this are hard to find particularly in the San Juan Islands unless of course you hire a crockpot team of hospitality professionals like us.
