A cocoa dusted tiramisu in layered into a loaf pan
Hokay. Homemade tiramisu with lady fingers from scratch. It needs to hang in the fridge for a few hours.
Was not a challenging recipe overall, but marscapone is the expensive bit so now i wanna research if i can make my own mascarpone #ChefJay

A bunch of oddly shapes lady finger cookies fresh out of the oven
They are ugly but
A) is my first time
B) they're getting dipped in coffee and buried in marscapone anyway

A swirled and sticky cinnamon bun on a blue and white plate
Had a pound of honey butter still from THANKSGIVING. Decided to use it up in a brioche dough and made cinnamon buns this morning.
It was so much butter I was certain it was just going to melt in the oven. 😅 #ChefJay

Two gallon bags full of dice onions sitting on a messy cutting board
Two gallon bags full of diced onions. I did have another bag of large onions but decided to use those up ad hoc 😭
These freeze beautifully and are easy to break apart so you can grab and go diced onion to cook with. #ChefJay

A plate of roasted potatoes topped with cauliflower curry, yogurt, and dried mint
I made my own curry from scratch! Usually i use a pre-mixed powder but Manfried got me a spice advent calendar so i set myself a challenge to use whatever surprise spice in dinner. Today was coriander seeds! So i made my own masala and put it over cauliflower and roast potato 😍 #ChefJay

Half of an apple crushed into a pancake
A juicer with a cheese cloth draped on it
About a cup of apple juice freshly pressed
Adventures in juicing! Had a couple wrinkly apples so I froze them, thawed them, split them and juiced them! The desire to do this to a lot of apples and make hard cider is looming
Next time I should core the apples and turn the flesh into freeze dried apple bites or apple leather #ChefJay

A fried bun topped with toasted sugar and sesame
The interior of the bun all puffed out and steamed from the butter
Today's journey in fried dough! I know I said I was gonna do savory but it's breakfast I want sweets.
Added butter AND sugar to the interior and sesame to the exterior and I think we got 'em. The interior got a nice cave from the butter steaming out and gosh the sesame is a nice flavor #ChefJay

A chickpea and veggie salad in a colorful bowl
Friendo @mg4h.bsky.social gifted me a meal kit from a mystery farm box she got and I don't think I even looked at the directions until I was halfway through 😂
Also it did not come with tofu, tomato, basil, or green onion, I just thought they'd be nice (I was correct) #ChefJay

A quickbread cheese bun that's been baked in a ceramic cup
A quickbread cheese bun that's been baked in a ceramic cup, with a scoop removed so you can see it studded with flax
Took the leftover cinnamon sugar cheese filling and added flax and baking powder to make a sort of English pudding in the oven. Glazed it with a honey syrup, it's actually quite nice! Having it with a second cup of coffee. #ChefJay

A ball of fried dough that's been rolled in toasted sugar
The ball of fried dough cut open to reveal a fluffy crumb and a dense layer of cinnamon sugar cream cheese filling
This morning's fried dough experiment is stuffed with cinnamon sugar cream cheese filling.
I should have added even more sugar and less binder to the filling so it would be ooey gooey but I'm not mad either.
Tomorrow I think I'm going to try a savory option #ChefJay

A large cambro full of fermenting happily bubbling bread dough in the process of getting fed fresh flour
I might have just decided to keep a large cambro of bread dough alive on the counter this week. Homegirl takes up a lot of space but her and I are learning together how to take up space and breathe. #ChefJay
