波特兰吃喝团九月聚会——做新菜

来源: 2014-10-08 10:26:14 [博客] [旧帖] [给我悄悄话] 本文已被阅读:
热闹繁忙的暑假结束了,我们波特兰吃喝团又要开始有规律的组织生活了。聚会了这么多次,大家私藏秘方都晒过了,互相学习交流经验了,不过自己的to do list估计还是只增不减哈。
 这次聚会,什么主题?大家集思广益,最后说那就“Something new…”每人至少一道菜Something new。这个Something new,是有要求的,不光是new to yourself, 也得new to the group。有团员就说了,这次Something new, 以后是不是可以Something old, Something blue, 然后Something borrowed。这四样都全了,估计我们某团员家的小美女也就该嫁人了。


 先来一张局部全景:




主人Pino为大家准备的开胃水果:







秋收的季节, 从农场到饭桌, 吃喝团聚会少不了 something newly picked。大家边尝鲜边感叹,农场摘来的水果青菜吃起来比店里买的好吃太多,聚会之后,好几家都去果园摘果子去了。

cherry tomatoes,是我团美女赛东施一大早顶着露珠用她那双纤纤玉手摘来的:




concord grapes, 味道胜似玫瑰香,出自我团资深劳模深深海洋之手:




深深海洋还为大家采摘了苹果:





为了pk, Pino帅哥和赛东施美女深夜赶制绿豆糕, 这一款晶莹秀雅的是帅哥版的:

 

做法:去皮绿豆泡过夜,上锅蒸40分钟直至软烂,取出用food processor打成粉末,炒锅中放入麻油,把绿豆泥放入用小火拌炒均匀,
放入细砂糖和麦芽糖继续小火拌炒。还加了糖桂花,放凉后用模具压出形状即可!想再丰富些,里面可以包些豆沙馅儿,简单又好吃!

再看美女版的绿豆糕。赛东施为了跟Pino帅哥pk吃了一点苦头, 最后的成品很出彩。大家借着评判的机会左尝一块,右尝一块, 尝来尝去直到尝光也不好打分。 但从本次聚会的主题来考虑,美女的这一款绿豆糕出线 - 通常我们吃到的绿豆糕是黄色的, 象祖母绿一样的绿豆糕确实更贴近something new:




川妹子不仅麻辣出名,也擅甜点,红模仿的Souffles,吃起来入口即化,舌尖上留下浓浓的巧克力香却让你久久回味:

 劳模不是吹滴, 深深海洋还千里迢迢给大家搬运来家乡特产 - 湖北麻糖和香茗酥:






主人Pino从家乡带来的红枣,甜到心里了




Pino的家乡风味手抓羊肉饭, 终于吃到了,油汪汪滴,那叫一个香:



羊肉抓饭  by pino

做法:

原料: 羊肋条肉,洋葱,胡萝卜

1.炒锅放油,放入一些花椒,待出香味后,将花椒捞出,放入羊肉煸炒,放入少许盐,可以加一些孜然,熟至8成捞出

2.炒锅放多一些油,放入胡萝卜和洋葱一起炒,加一些盐。等胡萝卜炒软了以后捞起来。 
3.蒸饭:这一步可以用电饭锅,也可以用高压锅。把肉放在最下面一层,然后加入米,在米上面加入炒过的胡萝卜和洋葱,加少许水。如果是电饭锅,就按照正常烧饭的程序烧。如果是高压锅,等冒气以后,火关小,烧15-20分钟即可。

这里加水的多少比较重要,切切不可加多,因为胡萝卜和洋葱都会出水。


玉米, 也是深深海洋给大家摘来的,同她摘来的葡萄和苹果一样, 鼓励大家连吃带拿:




葱香花卷,被小家伙们吃了一大半,有的小朋友打包回家还没吃够, 要求妈妈跟赛东坡阿姨订购(注意不是赛东施啊,一字之差, 两位美厨娘)。这个花卷的独到之处在于葱花是先用油爆香加榨菜的:




饺子再传统不过了, 但深深海洋对馅的配方有something new,青椒西红柿馅, 大红大绿是绝配, 味道小清新,不信你试试:





谁最能抓住小朋友的心? 抓住了小朋友的胃, 自然俘获了小朋友的心。 Smilley阿姨年轻漂亮,她做的菜最合小朋友的味口,看看这让人垂涎欲滴的泰式沙嗲烤的烤虾串和烤鸡串,小朋友们左手一串虾,右手一串鸡,吃了一串又一串:







泰式风味烤串方子如下,把盐减少了点。

蒜肠吃来很方便, 做起来可没那么容易, 从切肉到灌肠,都是赛东坡手工完成的:


做法参见此方:
http://home.*****/recipe-153633.html


Smilley 煎的土豆饼因为用料特别, 也大受小朋友们欢迎:


土豆煎饼做法: 

这可是中西结合的产物,我家小朋友的最爱, 已经被爸爸打入不能做的挡。因为,做了它,小朋友即不吃蔬菜,也不吃肉,只吃土豆,没营养,跟不上3小时的足球训练。

把土豆煮熟烂,切成小丁。加入炒好的咸肉,(bacon),葱,盐,一点糖,一点酱油,一起炒5-10分钟,压成饼的形状,中火到大火,煎到底下变焦黄。喜欢cheese就加一点。土豆吸收了咸肉的香味,一下子华丽转身,不再是质朴的土豆了。


对鱼儿的期待, 没有最高, 只有更高!
游走四方的鱼带来秘制高汤,现场为大家煮面。味道嘛,只可意会不可言传:




羊肉面做法:

主料:带皮羊肉,乌冬面

调味料:豆腐乳、韭菜花、酱油、糖、八角、山楂片、花椒、葱姜蒜、桂皮、(以上是必须的调味料)丁香、桔皮、砂仁、草果、新鲜的薄荷叶子、新鲜的九层塔叶子(这些都是可有可无的)

制作方法:

1,先将带皮的羊肉过水去掉血泡,然后捞出来。

2,锅中放入羊肉 ,酱油、糖、八角、山楂片、花椒、葱姜蒜、桂皮、丁香、桔皮、砂仁、草果,豆腐乳和韭菜花。豆腐乳我用的是块状的需要用水先调散。需要注意的是这时候调的味道要稍微淡一些,后面炖煮会损失水分,不过也不能太淡了,这个只有自己感觉了,而且因为要煮面,所以我把汤放多一些。
3,煮开以后加薄荷叶和九层塔叶子,用小火焖煮。
4,两个小时以后羊肉闷烧熟,把调味料都捞出来,放入水煮过的乌冬面,煮透就好了。


川味凉粉, 你能再正宗一点吗?!

红模仿的miso烤鱼, 外表的美来自一颗追求美的心, 如果你想美貌永驻,先从美食做起:



Nobu's Miso-Marinated Black Cod Recipe
1/4 cup sake
1/4 cup mirin
4 tablespoons white miso paste
3 tablespoons sugar
4 black cod fillets, about 1/2 pound each 
Two to three days beforehand, make the miso marinade and marinate the fish. Bring  the sake and mirin to a boil in a medium saucepan over high heat.  Boil  for 20 seconds to evaporate the alcohol.  Turn the heat down to low,  add the miso paste and whisk.  When the miso has dissolved completely,  turn the heat up to high again and add the sugar, whisking constantly to  ensure that the sugar doesn't burn on the bottom of the pan.  Remove  from heat once the sugar is fully dissolved.  Cool to room temperature.
Pat the black cod fillets thoroughly dry with paper towels. Slather  the fish with the miso marinade and place in a non-reactive dish or bowl  and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Leave to marinate in refrigerator  for 2 to 3 days. 
To cook the fish: Preheat oven to 400°F. Preheat a grill or broiler. Lightly wipe off any  excess miso clinging to the fillets but don't rinse it off. Place the  fish skin-side-up on the grill, or in a broiler pan, and grill or broil  until the surface of the fish browns and blackens in spots, about 3  minutes. Flip and grill or broil until the other side is browned, 2 to 3  minutes. Transfer to the oven and bake for 5 to 10 minutes, until fish  is opaque and flakes easily.


 主人Pino的盛情, 全在这盘高大上的羊腿里了:



Braised Lamb Shanks  by Pino

http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/anne-burrell/braised-lamb-shanks-recipe.html
Ingredients

Extra-virgin olive oil
4 lamb shanks (each about 1 1/4 pounds; 1 shank is a portion)
Kosher salt
1 large Spanish onion or 2 small yellow onions, cut into 1-inch dice
3 carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
3 celery ribs, cut into 1/2-inch dice
4 cloves garlic
1 (12-ounce) can tomato paste
2 cups hearty red wine
2 tablespoons finely chopped rosemary leaves
10 to 12 thyme branches tied together in a bundle
3 to 4 cups water
4 bay leaves
Gremolata, recipe follows
Gremolata:
1 orange, zested
1 lemon, zested
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley leaves
1 small garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons freshly grated horseradish

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Coat a large Dutch oven generously with olive oil and bring to a  high heat. Season the shanks generously with salt and add them to the  pan. Brown well on all sides. This is an incredibly important step; do  not rush it.

Meanwhile, puree the onions, carrots, celery and garlic in a food  processor until it becomes a coarse paste. Remove and set aside.

Remove the shanks from the pan to a sheet tray. Discard the excess  fat from the pan. Add a little more oil to coat the bottom of the pan  and add the pureed veggies. Season with salt, to taste. Saute the  veggies until they are very brown and aromatic, about 20 minutes. The  brown veggies should form a sort of crust on the bottom of the pan, do  not let this burn; it is where a lot of the flavor is! Don't rush this  step either, since this is where you will develop the brown color and  flavor.

Add the tomato paste and brown for 5 minutes. Stir in the wine,  chopped rosemary and thyme bundle. Stir frequently and cook until the  wine has reduced by about half.

Add the shanks back to the pot and pour in 3 to 4 cups of water. The  shanks should be submersed, if they are not, add more water. Add the  bay leaves to the pan, cover and put in the preheated oven. The cooking  time will be about 2 1/2 to 3 hours. Turn the shanks over about halfway  through the cooking time. Check the shanks every 45 minutes or so. If  the liquid has reduced too much add more water. Defat as you go.

Remove the lid during the last 30 minutes of cooking time for  maximum browning. When the shanks are done the meat should be incredibly  tender and flavorful. Transfer to serving plates and garnish with  Gremolata. Serve with Hard Polenta Cakes, if desired,

Call yourself a superstar!!!
Gremolata:

In a small bowl, combine all ingredients and set aside until ready to use.
