Noo, not Shamash cheeseburger, smash, you know, just smush the beef patties into the pan until they get really nice and brown with slightly crispy edges. Maybe someday I’ll make an actual burger in the name of Shamash.

Sliight improvement.

Thought I’d celebrate the good weather and make summer rolls with a peanut dip, and I don’t know if it’s the smaller wrappers or something, but rolling was much harder than I remembered and I gave up harfway through, dumped everything in a bowl and called it a day.

Tasty either way, no question.

Pretty much the same elements as the vegetable galette, different preparation. Took more care with the dough, keeping everything cold and letting everything rest, and was rewarded with a pie crust that was much nicer and flakier.

At my young ages I spent some time with a group of druids. I learned a bit about herbs and medications. One warm spring day we came across a shrub it has nice white flowers on it and it has the sweetest smell I ever came across. Even 50 ft away one could smell the flower. The druids told me that it is called Elderflower and the showed me how to make a syrup out of. It lasts forever and one can keep the smell for years.

It’s a breakfast sandwich, served for dinner. So what? I’m a free dwarf, you can’t shackle me with lowly food rules, haha!

Going from square to round and applying some of the lessons learned. The perpetual quest to make nice and soft buns for a burger.

Noo, this is not a pizza, if I served a pizza like this Einarr would probably toss me over the next cliff he’d find. The dough is pie crust, topped with zucchini, eggplant, green asparagus and onions. And in a way that seems to be the next conundrum to figure out – how to get a really flaky pie crust.

When it comes to this whole ramen endeavor, Quiz is calling the shots, but nevertheless I got curious about the components involved, one of them being chashu pork. A tightly wrapped pork belly slowly braised in a mix of soy sauce, sake, ginger and scallions, cooled down, thinly sliced and fried. The flavorful sauce and mix of soft skin, fat and lean meat makes for a great dish.
