Two weeks ago I cured some pork belly and made pancetta. After a week curing in the fridge I wrapped in cheesecloth and hung it it the basement.
Yesterday I tried a piece and it was super yummy. Today I ran the whole lot through the grinder along with some shoulder and belly of pork and made spicy Italian sausages.

But this left me without pancetta, so now there is another piece of belly curing in the fridge.

And since there is always 300g sausage meat left in the sausage stuffer afterwards I made a pork ragu and had it for dinner with some fresh tagliatelle.

It's been a year since I ordered a tortilla press and a bag of masa harina.
Upon posting my newly acquired goods on the new gear thread @HumbleHomeCook advised me to look up Rick Bayless on YouTube, so I had a look..
Well, I ended up having more that a look! I'm 7 books in and I feel like I'm just scratching the surface.
Anyway, to celebrate my anniversary I decided to have a fiesta!

Ceviche.

Growing basil in south Florida can be challenging... but this years crop has been doing really good. So after making the usual pesto, I looked for a recipe to use some more basil. Found a blistered grape tomato, basil and pasta recipe and it came out really good.

Sweet potatoes in tomato sauce with lime and cardamom with beef steak what a treat I love it

 

[Naftoor]

Some days you just want the food you grew up with, so today it’s safeeha. Decided to test it out with a sourdough, instead of the the commercial yeast I grew up with. Adds some nice complexity, definitely an improvement.

We visited a chicken farm on the weekend. One of those small family-run operations with healthy chicken that have all the space to roam they could possibly want (on real grass that is grown without fertiliser) and raised without antibiotics. Happiest chicken I've ever seen

Of course, I walked away with one of their (slaughtered) chicken and made a whole roast chicken (slow cooked for three hours at 140 ºC) for the first time in about 15 years. I forgot to take a picture of the whole thing. But it turned out very nice, definitely two steps above the barn-raised commercial broilers.

With home fries and leaf chicory salad:
