Dom, the dishes sound fantastic, but I was curious to know how you were going to make the squash broth. Boil chunks of squash with a bouquet garni, simmer and reduce? It sounds like the sort of thing I might like to make my self, so I am curious.
As to cooking the eggs, you can cut them at an angle if you like, just wrap them in plastic before dropping them in the immersion circulator. At such low temperatures, you don't need to worry about the plastic melting or imparting flavor. Bit of a bugger wrapping them, but it lets you prep all your eggs in advance then drop them when the order comes in.
Menu Planning - Part I - The Concept
Notes Dominic Armato As mentioned last week, I'm now officially in the throes of menu planning for my Chef For A Day date with Posh Restaurant, and I figured it'd be fun to keep a running journal of the process of bringing this thing to fruition. It all starts, of course, with the id...
I freaking love that you can just "make some fresh pasta" for them. Or did you already have it in the fridge? I just have this image of you going "@#%*it where is my 00 flour and the roller?". And then slapping around the eggs for giving you lip.
I may have been playing a lot of Mafia II. Probably not relevant.
Moral Imperative
Tagliatelle Fiori di Zucca Dominic Armato Here's the thing about zucchini blossoms: Sometimes you find a pile of them that's completely irresistible. And sometimes you build your dinner plans around them. And sometimes your dinner plans fall apart. And sometimes you come across them in the...
We have some family friends who just went through this. Very scary, but they are now fine. I wish you and yours good heath.
Hospital Food
Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Dominic Armato Hospital waiting room food, anyway. Nothing like a little viral meningitis to throw a kink in your plans for the week. I hate to do this -- two weeks in a row, even -- but there's just no way. While my devotion to the Power Rankings is great, my family's meni...
My wife uses one. Seems to like it. I just have never cared for a lukewarm lunch. I want my hot food hot and my cold food cold. Which means I spend a fortune on lunch. Sigh...
Bento Box
Bento Box Dominic Armato So is this embracing the culture, or a cry for help? I'm honestly not sure.
Sorry I missed this post! I live in Cambridge and am generally up for eating out in Boston. Let me know when you want to go exploring again, as I could probably recommend some places.
Boston Meetup?
Taiwanese Style Fish at Grace Garden Dominic Armato Any Boston-area folks interested in a little Taiwanese this Saturday? Short notice, I know, but I'm meeting a friend at JoJo Tai Pei for dinner at 9:00 on Saturday. I'd love to meet some local food nerds, and these types of outings are al...
