Cod with Brown Butter Sauce

Tuesday, August 04, 2026, 07:35 PM

We made White Fish with Pine Nut Brown Butter [New Food Fast] using (very, very old) frozen cod and pecans. Perhaps because of the age of the cod or because it was different thicknesses, we overcooked it and it was very tough. But the recipe was easy enough. We will try it again

Mexican Chicken Salad on Zucchini

Monday, July 27, 2026, 11:35 AM

Meredith (and Isaac) made Mexican Chicken Salad (not sure where the recipe was from) and a zucchini and cheese "bread" thing.

I poached chicken breast in water heavily salted with table salt and Lawrys salt. I shredded it in the mixer.

The zucchini and cheese "bread" thing are thin slices of zucchini with crisped cheese to hold it together.

Vietnamese Grilled Chicken

I would NOT MAKE THIS AGAIN. I made a brine of:

• 2 Tbsp Soy
• 2 Tbsp Fish
• 1 Tbsp brown Sugar
• 1 tsp Pepper
• 1 Tsp Corn starch
• 2 tsp Ginger (cube)
• 2 tsp Garlic (cube)
• 1 Tbsp Oil

and let trimmed thighs sit overnight. It wasn't horrible but nothing like what I've had at restaurants. It was based off a few sources. Next time, I will look in a cookbook!

BBQ Sauce Grilled Chicken

I trimmed, salted, then dry-brinded chicken thighs. After about a day, I grilled them, painting on the Baby Rays (no sugar added) BBQ sauce towards the end. Pretty good!

Protein Egg Bake

Another High-Protein Breakfast Egg Bite Bake based on the in-development High-Protein Breakfast Egg Bite Bake. I have actually made this many more times with different veggies. I will make it its own recipe soon.

Plain and Curry/Indian Beef Jerky

Thursday, June 25, 2026, 08:48 PM

These recipes were made with the help of ChatGPT and lots of iteration. I then packaged them in approx 1 oz small vacuum seal bags. I will store these in the freezer and let them thaw for snacks. It made about 12 oz from 32 oz beef but that does not account for what I ate in the process.

I let these marinate overnight which was probably more than needed for ground beef.

Plain

• 1 lb (454 g) 93% lean ground beef
• 1 tbsp ice water
• ¾ tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt (or ½ tsp Morton kosher salt)
• 1 tsp coarse black pepper
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• ½ tsp smoked paprika (optional)
• ¼ tsp MSG (optional)

Curry / Indian

• 1 lb (454 g) 93% lean ground beef
• 1 tbsp ice water
• ¾ tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt (or ½ tsp Morton kosher salt)
• 1/4 tsp MSG (optional)
• 2 tsp Kashmiri chili powder
• 1 tsp mild curry powder
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp onion powder
• ½ tsp ground cumin
• ½ tsp ground coriander
• ¼ tsp ground ginger
• ¼ tsp turmeric
• ½ tsp sugar
