i couldnt sleep last night cause i was stressed the fuck out so i decided to cook something to calm myself. i pulled together some random shit and came up with this.

 

 

 

 

 

seared salmon burger patties over lemon pepper pasta with scallions topped with basil pesto, and artichoke hearts with a rice vinegar and raw sugar deglaze drizzle.

then i finished it with some mandarin and orange jello I had made earlier in the day.

really being able to "whip up" a good dish isnt as hard as it may seem and from seeing your meals you posted suki you probably have very complex palate, maybe you just dont know it.

 

to suki and whoever else what it really comes down to for better words is matching flavours that compliment each other, for example in that dish i had those salmon patties then thought what goes with well with seafood? lemon, and i knew i had that lemon pasta. then thought what goes good with lemon? i like to add a little lemon to my butter dip for artichokes and knew i had some artichoke hearts i had roasted in the freezer and so on ........

 

at first it seems easier to start it off with with the main part of the dish as in this case the salmon but really it is just as easy to start a creation from the last thing such as a drizzle.

 

maybe some people really cant cook but i feel if you like to eat food you can make a good dish.

 

yes some things require experience or a know how, whith cooking there is always something to learn. the best chefs in the world learn new things all the time and for that its why i love to cook. :)

IOU stock isn't meant to be herbaceous. what your going for with stock is the essence of chicken beef pork veal lamb and so forth. the stock is just meant to be the base for building upon. if you got a rich veal stock and go to make demi glace the sauce is gonna end up being a whole lot better since you could build the flavor profile off of the stock you started with. or another example would be chicken noodle soup. if you start off with a stock that you simmered for a day. with only onion carrot celery and a couple bay leaves parsley stems black pepper corns. that rich stock is gonna give the you a big base of chicken flavor then when you make the soup that's when you season it and add herbs like rosemary and thyme.

OK, I see what you're saying. The flavor seemed a little thin to me, but when I used it to make some tomato soup, it seemed to better than when I used canned stock. So I think I'll just stick to what I did and just have it simmer for at least five hours or so.. I only did three this last time.

 

And congrats man..
