Bacon wrapped pork tenderloin with a Riesling pan sauce and crisp sautΓ©ed spΓ€tzle. Marjoram, browning, and a warm skillet give it its German heart, with every slice soaking up the sauce the way it should. #TheOutpost #Cooking #Cooksky #Foodsky #Recipe #Dinner #Pork

Topping up my Snackleboxes for the weekend ahead. Keeping these in the fridge stops me from making and eating too many cookies or eating a large bag of chips. Gotta do what ya gotta do. π½οΈππ§π₯π« #snacklebox #losttogetheracres #snacksonthego #whatscooking

This pie layers crisp pecan crust, bourbon chocolate custard, sticky caramel glaze, and whipped cream into one dazzling dessert. A holiday centerpiece that invites awe, indulgence, and second helpings. #TheOutpost #Cooking #Cooksky #Foodsky #Baking #Bakesky #Recipe

Making a Terry's choco orange cake for my BFFs birthday today. Keeping this idea for my Christmas baking. Thanks!
First attempt at Scottish tablet made for my BFF's 60th bday. I must say, I'm proud as punch with how it turned out. Is it purdy? Nope, it's tablet. It's not supposed to be pretty. Fingers crossed she loves it. π½οΈππ§π¬ #losttogetheracres #scottishtablet #birthday
Canadian prices: Campbellβs Cream of Mushroom (515 mL) costs about $4.29.
My homemade batch costs ~$5.52 total and makes ~6β7 cups.
515 mL β 2.5 cups, so my homemade portion costs $2.00β$2.30.
Homemade is ~half the price.)
soup after adding a cup and a half of 10% cream (it's all I had, would have preferred heavy cream) with the addition of a heap tbsp of corn starch. Some will be used for my meat loaf dinner tonight the rest will be put into 2 cup batches and put into the fridge. π½οΈππ₯« #homecooking #losttogetheracres
Me giving #campbellssoup the big ol' middle finger. Making my own cream of mushroom soup. First pic is of the base pureed mushrooms, onion, garlic, chicken stock, flour, corn starch, a very small pinch of thyme and two bay leaves. Second pic is the finished
Posted this to my other account by mistake. Super happy with how my antipasti mini platters turned out. #losttogetheracres #capresesalad #roastredpeppersalad #pickledveg #cheeses #charcuterie
@futuretime.bsky.social My apologies for the lateness I can't post links for some reason. Still trying
For the paste, I went a little bit off script and the flavor profile is incredible. 10 cloves garlic, 6 root ends cilantro, 2" pc ginger, 3 tbsp fish sauce, 1tbsp dark soy sauce, 1 heaped tbsp of honey, 1 lg Asian pear, 1/3 cup gochugaru & 1 heaped tbsp gochujang. Now I wait. π½οΈππ«π₯π₯¬

A dense, silken flourless chocolate cake layered with brandy-scented fudge sauce and finished with a snowfall of unsweetened chocolate shavings. The bitter finish balances the lush sweetness beneath. #TheOutpost #Cooking #Cooksky #Foodsky #Baking #Bakesky #Recipe

It's been a long time coming. Been working on this recipe off and on for years. When I want cinnamon raisin bread I want it loaded with both. Finally I figured out the magic touches and deemed this one perfect (for me). Cinnamon Raisin and Maple. #losttogetheracres #raisinbread π½οΈππ
Last batch went faster than I ever could have imagined. My take on giardiniera. This time I used my girls honey for the sweetener instead of sugar. In the fridge for a few days before diving in. #giardiniera #losttogetheracre #sandwichpickle π½οΈππ₯π₯
And thank you for the compliment! I'm proper chuffed about them
Master is quite simple. 1000 g bread flour (or strong all-purpose) 750 g water (lukewarm, ~25Β°C) 20 g salt 10 g instant yeast 20 g honey. If using sugar instead of honey I would go 10g.
48 hour master dough used as a pre-ferment to make roasted garlic and everything bagels. So far, I'm loving having a master in the fridge, these are springy, just slightly dense with a great chew. Up next Brioche #bagels #masterdoughbaking #losttogetheracres π½οΈπππ₯―
Also made a quick (and ugly) roasted garlic and parm baguette using 400g of the master. Shaping skills need work. 2/2 π½οΈπππ₯― #breadbaking #masterdough #baguette #madefromscratch #losttogetheracres
Experiment of the day (month? year?). Created a master dough which will be used as often as needed until it reaches 200 g of the master then "fed" with flour, water, yeast. As it ages it will take on sour notes like a sourdough without having to feed a starter. 1/2

My take on giardiniera that I call wrap pickle. Batch is radish, cucumber, carrot, celery, onions, garlic, red peppers & a wee bit of hot peppers for a bit of a kick. After I've salted the veg for 1/2hr to release the water, & I make the oil vinegar brine I add in some sliced pickles. π₯π½οΈππ₯π«
Hubs is training for a half marathon so coming up with nutrient rich breakfasts post 5k runs (he does 5k every day). Overnight oats with hemp hearts, bananas, Blu berries. And mini egg muffins with bacon, sausage, quinoa and veggies. He can pick whether he wants savory or sweet. #losttogetheracres
