Wegman’s had some nice ribeyes this morning. I’ve been perfecting my kalbi recipe and so far the mix I like is equal parts of the chicken and pork marinade and Mogo’s hot sauce mixed with a heaping tablespoon of the gochujang. Before cooking I sprinkle liberally with my secret ingredient - hot flv. marinated salty powder. I put that sh*t on everything.


I brush part of the mixture on the meat and let it marinate for a few hours. Before the steaks hit the hot pan or grill I dry them well, then sprinkle with my secret ingredient. Once they are done and rested I brush the meat with the rest of the marinade.

Sorry, can’t type anymore, eating.

Tried expanding my range with some shrimp lo mein. The subbed Manischewitz egg noodles worked out but used too much soy.

That’s the stuff!!

There are 3 ingredients in it; white pepper, salt, and spice. I’ve been using it for years and I still have no idea what “spice” means. All I know is that if added to any Asian dish I cook it makes it taste better. I wish I had more information for you, but that’s all I know.

Also, the $11 Amazon price is ridiculous. The little bottles ( I’ve never seen a bigger size ) are about $2 at our local Asian Food Market in Marlboro.

Those look amazingly easy! I wonder if you can use an immersion blender, instead of a regular blender. Limited counterspace keeps my blender in the basement.

I don’t own an immersion so I can’t confirm that but a reg blender would be fine. Just decide on how thick or thin you prefer it to be before you hit the on switch. A fp would work too.

Oh, I HAVE the food processor in the kitchen, good idea!

Will have to look for it. Not a lot of info online, but found a lot of associated products from Oriental Mascot. Thanks.

Last night’s Chicken Marsala, in which I always substitute sweet vermouth for the Marsala. Have posted it in WFD several times but I don’t think I have here.

Served with browned butter gnocchi instead of pasta.

What's for Dinner #59 - the Summertime Covid Blues Edition - July 2020

Chicago Italian Beef/Sausage combo sandwich. Semi-homemade as I had the giardiniera, beef and gravy shipped from Chicago. Made a big pot of gravy and over 30 sausages this morning and placed a single one in the center of the roll, covered it with beef swimming in that hot au jus, and topped with hot giardiniera. Fed 13 people lunch and still have a ton of leftovers.

Stupendous!

Saturday nights short rib over buttery Parmesan pasta. Somehow I bought peeled and sliced tomatoes vs. crushed so the sauce didn’t cook down as it should have. Minimal difference to taste, it was delicious just not as much of a ragu as it should have been.

Takeout tonight from Neelam after a day at the beach. I had chicken makhni and Justin had chicken dhingri. We shared a navrattan korma, rice, and naan.

There were several cocktails. He had margaritas while I had pink lemonade vodka with club soda.
