I presume you can do fondant potatoes in sous-vide? Can you sous-vide in butter?

Please don't persuade me to get an Anova

Thanks guys, fondant potatoes are my favourite type of potato.

Hadn't thought of sous vide fondant potatoes, may be harder to get the sear and browning after though. Worth a shot though I guess

4x4 Cali burger from Bread Meats Bread, which is 4 thin mustard grilled patties covered in cheese. And some squeaky fried cheese (fried cheese curds) with marinara dipping sauce.

So good, but too much food! I could not finish it.

Got this pesto chicken and buffalo mozzarella salad for dinner later

That looks amazing!

 

[Craig1981]

It was epic! But no way I would get the 4x4 again with a side. The 2x2 or 3x3 would be more manageable I think

looks great and as much as I always want to order such things, would rather two normal sized ones, so they fit in the mouth.
but then you look even more greedy than one giant one.

I hear that. I didn't even try to eat it with my hands. Was a knife and fork job.

I went to Japan for work two weeks ago, had some great food at seemingly ordinary restaurants.

Night 1: Shabu-Shabu where you get a bowl of hot broth/stock and you blanch your veg and thinly sliced meat. Not a very good picture as we were hungry.

Night 2: What was a kind of set-meal style restaurant where you picked your main and sides. This was Battered chicken pieces and I presume stir-fried veg with a sweet-soy style sauce and rice.

Night 3: The big work night out.

Night 4: Found the top rated local place on Trip Advisor, you did a Korean-style bbq with tasty meat. No English so had to get strangers to help us order!

Night 5: Smaller work night out - but more food!

Night 6: Two colleagues took me out for okonomiyaki!

Night 7: Alone at the airport ready for my return flight. I hadn't had much sushi so only one thing to do...

Such awesome foods.

Made some krispie Kreme style doughnuts. They turned out amazing for a first try at making doughnuts. Very close to the real thing, but the dough isnt quite as sweet and is a little firmer. Also the real KK doughnuts have a weird sour tinge that is missing, not sure what that is or whether it was just the batch I tired.

Used this recipe if anyone wants to give them a try: http://www.cookingclassy.com/copycat-krispy-kreme-doughnuts/
