Ox JC reporting live at 4:18 AM. I figured I would Go as far as possible and finish writing tomorrow. Long school day today, I stayed in school for the normal amount of 12 hours, but I didn't go today till 2 pm ... So here I am now! Back home to write yet another entry of my big meal today. No real recipe because I'm pretty sure everyone knows how to make stew. That and I just practically grabbed everything that would go well with stew. I wasn't crazy enough to add red pepper into my stew.
But today the most interesting thing I discovered was how to cook beef without making it bleed. Everyone says to just use high heat to sear the meat, and you have to check the time to see how much time is left before you flip it over. Even then, I still manage to make it bleed no matter how many times I've tried cooking beef. Ah.. My hair dried, I'll finish it tomorrow. I'll leave a picture behind.Whoops guess blogger is not iPod friendly.
Good night San Diego!
I've finally got my computer turned on, So here is the beef I was talking about. I need to try out this out with an herb crust recipe I'll do when I have time again. I really wanted to make stew last week but I didn't have time but I saw a fatty cut and couldn't resist buying it. So I threw it in the freezer for about a week and pulled it out for cooking. Beef needs about 12 hours of defrosting if you want to transfer it from the freezer to fridge. I went to create a base for the stew by frying the flour-covered beef in oil and after four minutes this is what I got. If I didn't under-cook it for the stew I would have tried one piece to see how it tastes.
In the end I threw everything in and presto, Beef stew for the whole week.
In case anyone asks, this is the main dish for me, I would only cook a main dish that I would not mind having for a whole week (food you could never get tired of) That doesn't mean I would just be mal-nutrional and eat nothing but this. During the week, I cook complimentary dishes or already have complimentary dishes to serve with this. This stew does taste great, but it's nothing special for this week :(
midterms coming up
Peace
