Radish Salad with Radish Top Pesto

[angelmush]

feeling creative in the kitchen again so here's some food dreams i have for the foreseeable future:

i made a rice bowl for breakfast/lunch (honestly i usually just combine these meals together lol) and along with rice in my rice cooker i put a TON of ginger, scallions, soy sauce, mirin, fish sauce, + a drizzle of sesame oil 2 flavor my rice as well as an egg to soft boil it, i ate this with fishwife mackerel and 1/2 an avocado

miso glazed cod broiled til it's golden !!!! just craving that delicate flakiness that cod provides and i know i have some in my freezer i can thaw, not sure what to eat it with tho, any ideas are welcome !

my gf picked up a baguette from the patisserie near us and i have some kerrygold salted butter + radishes for a snack

i made another batch of miso brown butter chocolate chip cookie dough to scoop and freeze for single serve cookie emergencies

dreaminggg of some kind of creme brulee or panna cotta with cardamom and plums or pears ? or maybe a tart? possibly topped with toasted brown butter pistachios? i'm not sure but i have the most delicious plums and pears in my fridge that i need to use in something and im feeling very inspired by creamy desserts right now

craving the buttery richness of a thick slab of salmon basted in herbs and a good butter or something along these lines

a brown butter and sage gnocchi and sweet potato dish of some kind? not sure, this idea is still marinating

my easy go to meal is a turkey sandwich with pesto and goat cheese and i got these jarred roasted red peppers i think would be delicious with that

i've made a really delightful avocado, radish, bean salad before with a bright vinaigrette that could be tasty especially when eaten cold (it was like randomly 90 degrees today after being fall vibes for weeks so. crispy cold veg sounds delightful all of a sudden)

Following several hospitalizations linked to the most recent serving of Frankie’s Famous Fish last month, all waivers have been destroyed and future shipments of “fish” scratched from the order. Anyone who sees or smells “fish” should report this to Site Security. Site Administration would like to stress and remind personnel not to try Frankie’s Famous Fish at the cafeteria; do not believe the rumors the dish gives you powers if you survive. If anyone has seen Frankie, inform him that the HR Department and Director Osterholz desires a meeting. Immediately.

Lab spaces may still be booked through the Head of Research at Site-φ. Please let them know what you intend to research, and be advised that lab space is in slightly shorter than usual supply due to “a Newt-related incident.” Newt, who is a good dog, does not understand what this could be referring to. Neither does anyone else who was in the lab at the alleged time of the incident. Head of research insists that Newt “knows what he did.”

📍 players are welcome to request a lab space for their researchers by contacting rp mgmt. please note that requesting a space as a themis member would immediately jump the line of the other scientists at the site. some themis researchers, depending on their prestige, may be given a full team of lab assistants to aid in their noble pursuit to secure, contain, and protect.

The Walking Club, a group of highly-intelligent pack of dogs, is looking for new members! remember — DON’T WALK ALONE. That is a formal directive, not a request. Joining the Walking Club is especially critical given the WEATHER WARNING soon to be in effect; any personnel who need to move between site buildings while the WARNING is active must contact the Walking Club. The correct way to contact the Walking Club is to step through the nearest door, close it behind you,* and whistle as loud as possible. If you are not a good whistler, that is okay! There is no such thing as a bad whistle if you put your heart into it! The Walking Club will still hear you and arrive shortly. *If Newt has chosen you as his walking buddy, you are advised to brace yourself against the door before whistling, to prevent injury.

by DIRECTOR B. Osterholz

Good evening. It has been brought to my attention that our new additions here at Site-φ may be in need of a reminder as to the appropriateness of fraternization among personnel at this highly clandestine installation. To reiterate what was stated during onboarding and in the welcome brochure: “making eyes,” “canoodling,” and/or “partaking in the horizontal tango” with fellow staff members is not allowed at Site-φ. As you all know, the nature of our work demands absolute dedication and focus. Surely any rumors of anyone engaging in such acts on-site are, indeed, no more than crass rumors to razz the newcomers.

i made the most amazing sandwich just now

recipe below lol

2 pieces of long sourdough lightly toasted for bread

right out of the toaster spread one side of each piece with a thin layer of butter, let that cool while you do the rest of this stuff

smash/chop one clove fresh garlic and a sprigs worth of rosemary leaves (like 1-2tbsp i suppose)

hopefully you have a boiled egg, if not boil one real quick: bring water to a nice strong boil FIRST then gently drop cold egg into boiling water for 5min:soft 7min:med 9min:hard then place in bowl of ice or very cold water for a while

now go back to your toast. it should be fairly room temp by now and the little bit of butter should be fully soaked up, so go ahead and spread a thin layer of mayo on there. if you’re out of mayo, and you have an egg and 1/4 cup of oil and a lemon or lime and some salt (and a whisk or hand mixer or immersion blender to make it easier), no you’re not out of mayo, go look up a five minute recipe, you will have very good mayo once you follow that

anyway, hopefully you have pesto. if so, use a spoon to put a little on each slice of toast and use the back of the spoon to spread it around thinly on top of the mayo. if not, whatever, no big deal, chopped fresh basil leaves will also work well here, but either way sprinkle your fresh garlic and rosemary mixture evenly over top of this. crack some black pepper all over that shit and parmesan if you’re fancy

put some spinach or other leafy green on one side of the toast. this will be your bed for your eggs and also a nice leaf for your body to enjoy. optional tomato/onion here as well if you have and like them

now go ahead and peel your boiled egg if you haven’t, then cut it in half and then each half into halves. do this over the sandwich to make sure no egg drops on the floor or counter or whatever especially if it’s boiled softer. arrange the pieces nicely on the toast, you can add a second egg if your toast is big enough

ok, so we’re almost done. sprinkle a little salt on the egg pieces, pepper too, parmesan if you’re like me, then take extra virgin olive oil and BARELY zigzag it across that sandwich. like a light drizzle at most you know. then do the same with some balsamic vinegar. you can also skip the oil and vinegar and use a premixed vinaigrette

then put your second piece of toast on top and you’re done! if it’s more than 5 inches across i suggest cutting it in half to make it more manageable

this is called jess’s fancy egg salad sandwich

Friday’s lunch: Salmon Loves You 🍣 - a Coho Salmon warm grain bowl with egg, spinach, kale, pickled red onion, avocado, cucumber, and our house made Pesto Vinaigrette. 🥗🌯🍚🔥

[litfeathers]

I was tagged by @fairytales-and-folklore so of course I had to comply <3

relationship status: *Flashes her wedding ring* favourite colour: Red! It's my signature color. favourite food: There is a glorious sandwich at a cafe in my hometown that is so good it sends me into the STRATOSPHERE. It's tomato, mozzerella, arugula, balsamic vinaigrette, and cilantro pesto on chibatta bread that they bake in house. It's amazing. last thing I googled: I looked up the code for adding a link to AO3 so I could just copy and paste it. 😅 dream trip: I have always wanted to see midnight sun and/or polar night, so any place that experiences that would be amazing.

Hmm...let's give no pressure tags to @ashanimus, @a-hobit, @egg-baby-official, and @hobbitistic!

[mariacallous]

Throughout the course of the afternoon, my coworker(s) and I consumed the following:

Salmon croquettes - with chipotle aioli, tartar sauce, and tobiko

Grilled octopus - grilled Portuguese octopus with Mediterranean potatoes, herbed citrus oil, and a roasted pepper vinaigrette

Peking duck tacos - roasted duck in a soft flour tortilla with a Caribbean Coke slaw, hoisin sauce, and mango and pineapple chutney

A few glasses of rose and a hibiscus Margarita, and many many many many many refills of water (I don’t know the last time I was so hydrated).

Duff Goldman’s Kellogg’s NYC Residency Menu

Food AND Drink

Type of Funny Food: Event

Introduced: September 2018

Location: Kellogg’s NYC

Kellogg’s NYC is a now-closed “cereal cafe” that took up residence in Times Square- and then Union Square- from 2016 to 2019. In that short time, the cereal giant-owned cafe hosted a number of events, including one for National Cereal Day, and another for Pop-Tarts.

Another of these events was a two-day residency helmed by famed pastry chef and ‘Ace of Cakes’ Duff Goldman. Goldman created his own cereal-themed menu for the occasion, which included food- main course and dessert alike, and one drink!

The menu options were:

Corn Flakes Crunchy Mac ‘n’ Cheese, a baked bacon mac and cheese topped with Corn Flakes,

Special K Red Berry Yummy Frisée Salad, a curled endive salad with Special K Red Berry croutons, whole grain mustard vinaigrette, and cranberries, served with Corn Flakes-baked potatoes au gratin,

Snap Crackle Poppin’ Matzo Balls with Chicken Soup, Rice Krispies-based matzo balls in vegetable-filled chicken soup,

Kellogg’s Krispie Fish Sticks, Rice Krispies and Corn Flakes-battered cod sticks served in an actual fish bowl with your choice of assorted sauces,

Sunny-sensational Lahmajoun, a Turkish flatbread made with with bran dough drizzled with labneh and mint and covered in date puree, raisins, shredded haloumi, tumeric parsley pesto, lamb and sesame Raisin Bran sausage, and diced white onion,

Big Apple Jacks Bowl, a caramel-drizzled “deconstructed” caramel apple with a “snickerdoodle surprise” and peanut candy clusters, served in an event-exclusive bowl designed by Goldman,

Frosted Flakes Pumpkin Spiced-Up Rompope, a drink filled with Pumpkin Spice Frosted Flakes custard and topped with Frosted Flakes streusel and cinnamon whipped cream,

G-r-r-reatest Banana Kream Pie Ever, a maple-cinammon banana cream pie with Frosted Flakes crust with milk chocolate and Krave inside, 

and the Not So Mini Mini-Wheats Upside Down Cake, a pineapple and Frosted Mini-Wheats cake a la mode with pan-toasted Rice Krispies.

Interestingly, one offering was present in advertising for the event, but didn’t seem to make it to the official menu. This was some flavor (ha) of Froot-Loops-themed macaron and cookie with a color-changing rainbow custard that came out of a toothpaste tube.

Donations made during the short residency were given to the charity No Kid Hungry. Customers could also buy themed merchandise, such as the aformentioned Duff-designed cereal bowl.
