Fish cakes, #wildrice with #morels, and #squashsoup (courtesy of mom!) this was a nice, hearty combo. #fishcakes are nothing new here, but this time I used oats as a binding agent, which worked quite well with the delicate #codfillet. Just blitz the oats in a food processor first. https://www.instagram.com/relativelyhealthy_fo_real/p/CYjdLhEr3ea/?utm_medium=tumblr

Feast of the New Year 🥳🤩🎉 Featuring: - Shaved ribeye #pelmeni (#пельмени) - #baconcheese bread with cheddar and #gruyere - #bluecrab salad - #beetsalad (#винегрет) - #jonahcrab rangoons - #scallionpancakes - #friedchickenthighs and a supporting cast of sides. For dessert, #blueberrycake cookies (we call them Toni’s cookies), #coconut pyramids, and a near-perfect #millefeuille that unfortunately wasn’t completely picture worthy. Yep, we ate too much. #noregrets https://www.instagram.com/p/CYMvrknPMMB/?utm_medium=tumblr

This was the most satisfying meal I’ve been able to pull together in quite some time. Braised pork shank with potato dumplings and cabbage. The braise was based on apple cider, and provided a nice flavor and sweetness. Reminded me of holiday ham. #porkshank #applecider #braisedpork #potatodumplings #saucey #relativelyhealthy https://www.instagram.com/p/CXr7AZxo-Ze/?utm_medium=tumblr

I hope this picture of cleaned ribeye is satisfying, because I forgot to take a picture of the resulting meal. It was delicious, but I guess you’ll have to take my word for it… #ribeyesteaks #ribeyefillet #ribeyecap #ribeyesteak #relativelyhealthy https://www.instagram.com/p/CXpPh_OsHU_/?utm_medium=tumblr

Whipped up some general Gao’s chicken today, it came out quite nicely. Crispy and saucy, happily accompanied by broccoli and rice noodles. #homemadechinese #chickenthighs #crispychicken #chickenandbroccoli #tastyaf #relativelyhealthy https://www.instagram.com/p/CXo13HzPQar/?utm_medium=tumblr

Ricotta, pesto, French green lentil, and chanterelle pizza. Not too disappointing 😑 #ricottacheese #ricottapizza #chanterelles #chanterellemushrooms #greenlentils #pestopizza #relativelyhealthy https://www.instagram.com/p/CXKbSC7MwpX/?utm_medium=tumblr

I’ve been wanting to try my hand at beef Wellington for quite some time, and today the fridge inventory coaxed it to life. This dish was a bit tricky, and I’ll try again for sure. I left plenty of room for improvement. All in all I’m sufficiently satisfied with the first attempt though. #beefwellington #tenderloin #beeftenderloin #hautecuisine #savorypastry #relativelyhealthy https://www.instagram.com/p/CWwobRxMCK4/?utm_medium=tumblr

Lamb always makes me happy. This was a roasted French rack, marinated in lemon juice with oregano, garlic, black and white pepper. Served alongside was some rice pilaf with chanterelles and maitake mushrooms, and some crispy Brussels sprouts. Delish. #lambrack #frenchrack #pilaf #chanterelles #maitake #henofthewoods #brusselssprouts #damnthatsdelish #relativelyhealthy https://www.instagram.com/p/CWhOBauM5lR/?utm_medium=tumblr

Kicking off my wife’s birthday celebrations with some wienerschnitzel. Paired with baked Adirondack red potato fries and some home-fermented pickles. 🥂 #schnitzel #wienerschnitzel #veal #redpotatoes #homemadepickles #tastyaf #relativelyhealthy https://www.instagram.com/p/CVqRoAePT-p/?utm_medium=tumblr

A couple of months ago my wife remembered a pastry she used to get from a bakery in years past. It had long since closed up shop, and she did her best to describe the pastry from memory, not knowing it’s name. Relentless Google searches brought her to something called mocha roll cake, which yields a few results like you see here. I’ve never had or seen the original she remembers, but his is what I was able to pull together. It’s a vanilla angel food cake roll with raspberry jam, coated in shredded coconut and topped with mocha butter cream. Finished with a gentle dollop of more raspberry jam. We’ll see if it lives up to her memory in a moment! #homepastry #mocharollcake #raspberrymocha #cakeroll #rollcake #raspberryjam #mochabuttercream #coconutflakes #homemadepastry #bakedbyme #relativelyhealthy https://www.instagram.com/p/CVZB1W9sFrH/?utm_medium=tumblr

I’ve been working on perfecting the Mille feuille for quite some time now, and it seems like the pieces are finally coming together. Locking in the puff pastry technique seems to be a big part of the success. Super delicious! #millefuille #bakedbyme #homebakingrocks #homemadepastry #homepastry #pastrycream #puffpastry #homemadedessert #tastyaf #relativelyhealthy https://www.instagram.com/p/CU3n2Y4ICXy/?utm_medium=tumblr

We don’t watch the games, but we eat the food! After enjoying our Buffalo chicken dip lunch yesterday, we’re just about to chow down on this Buffalo chicken pie. Letting it cool down first, it came out hot! #buffalochicken #buffalochickenpizza #buffchick #bluecheese #mozzy @franksredhot @pointreyescheese #relativelyhealthy https://www.instagram.com/p/CU2t-eRF43D/?utm_medium=tumblr

Oatmeal cookie ice cream sandwich. Actually, this was a successful attempt at nonfat banana-oat cookies and nonfat maple-cinnamon frozen yogurt. I’m loving this. 460 cal / 30g protein / 1g fat #icecreamsandwich #lowfatfood #lowcaloriedessert #casein #bedtimesnack #eatingwithoutcheating #foodscience #relativelyhealthy https://www.instagram.com/p/CUWPOrAIaN5/?utm_medium=tumblr
