Made miso mushroom soup with Somen from scratch, including the stock (Kombu, Shiitake, Katsuobushi). Mushrooms are Shiitake, Enoki, and King Oyster. Better than any miso soup I’ve ever eaten, even at very expensive restaurants. Making your own stock makes a massive difference.

Third time smoking brisket. Getting ready for the wife's Rosh Hashanah dinner tonight.

I scored several pounds of maitake mushrooms while on a hike yesterday. I’ve got the ugly and tough bits simmering now with kombu, onion, ginger and a handful of dried shiitake. Wild mushroom ramen is on the menu tonight!

Puy lentils and duck confit.

Pizza night over here, but the dough had some issue so I cannot show anything...holes everywhere, burning rather than cooking, in a nutshell; a MESS....

humble pie every now and then has a purpose....I guess

Super bummed I didn’t have a single green herb to chop and sprinkle over my first homemade CIOPPINO!

fun to make. And I “wobbled” the bowl to take pic which dirtied my image. Boo.

And here it is, wild mushroom ramen starring maitake, aka hen-of-the-woods, foraged by my wife and I.

(Please excuse the fact that it’s being presented in a mixing bowl, I really need to level up my serving ware)

We invited my step son and his fiance over for dinner a week before their wedding. I had decided on making meatballs so I went on a bit of a meatball marathon... 60 meatballs later (with 40 in the freezer) they were simmering in the sauce. With a bottle of Montepulciano D'abruzzo, it made for a very satisfying meal.

Beer can chicken, fennel & chickpea salad, saffron rice

Playing a game of "Hide the greens". Making some pasta sauce with various greens from the garden: moringa, katuk, edible hibiscus, Mexican oregano, marjoram. The Moritaka will get used to chop it all fine enough to go unnoticed by a picky toddler.

Simple Karaage, family style lunch.

Boneless pork shoulders make great chops, for turning into batches of oven tonkatsu. Read it freezes pretty good, will be testing that with some of this batch.

Picked up a mushroom kit the other day. Lion's Mane.

The second flush is starting:

While I was out shopping, I found these dried lion's mane mushrooms at an Asian grocery store.



100 g for AUD 4.95, which is cheap, so I decided to try them. Here they are after reconstituting 50 g:



After squeezing out all the water, I ended up with 170 g. I turned them into lion's mane patties with a dressing of mayonaisse, garlic, dijon, and a bit of soy sauce. Served with grilled octopus with a herb, lemon, and EVO marinade, and a salad with a Thai style dressing.

Looks good, the only mushroom I ever got to grow decently was a batch of Psil Cubensis..
