Braised Grass-fed Organic Short Ribs- Starting with 2 1/2 pounds of beef short ribs, salted and rested prior to browning then braised with organic red wine, stock, herbs. Cooked till falling off the bone then cooled and trimmed.
Whole roasted Organic Chicken- rubbed with a smoked fennel and sweet maple salt and left overnight. I then rub the chicken with butter and cook it a little bit more than the usual (which is about 163-165 degrees internal temperature in the middle of the breast away from the bone). I think I will get closer to the 168-170 range just to ensure the legs get a little more done. The idea is the salting process will ensure the rest of the bird stays moist.
Caramelized Onion Home Fries -with chopped rosemary, thyme light garlic, and Redmonds salt. Organic russet potatoes are diced and boiled then set aside to cool while onions caramelized. Once the onion are done the herbs get chopped, and then the butter and olive oil gets melted in a pan. The onions and herbs are then added quickly, followed by the potatoes and salt where they get tossed, heated through, salted and seasoned with the herbs one more time.
1 Quart 100% Organic Bone Broth- Beef marrow bones, chicken bones, and giblets. Simmered and skimmed relentlessly for at least 48 hours (many of the stocks I will be providing will likely be fortifications of other stocks. This means the stock is basically a “mother sauce” past down from generations of older stocks (from the freezer or boiled regularly to kill bacteria. This is a common practice in many Asian restaurants and homes and plays a major role in their culture, cuisine, and in the flavor, love, and passion that goes arm in arm-with food cooked by this method of fortification.
This process enhances and deepens the flavor while building upon the nutrient profile by gathering nutrients from many different animals- many times over, as opposed to a stock consisting of one chicken and part of one cow. The proteins are continually broken down during heating and re-stacked in different ways during cooling due to the newly added protein structures. This makes a very healthy stock appear less viscous than expected, but that is very much on the contrary. The long heating/extraction process versus a three-hour stock also affects these results, as the proteins will again stack differently at cooling due to being less broken down.
The stock will be simmered with fresh and dry organic bay leaves, fennel seeds, and peppercorns and finished in the final hours with organic carrots, celery, onion, garlic, and fresh parsley. It will then be cooled for one hour in the pot then meticulously strained through a fine sieve (I try not to use cheesecloth when not necessary. If I do, I rinse it first and make sure the final rinse is with spring or filtered water) before pouring it into glass ball jars and cooled in the refrigerator.
This nutritious stock is excellent for adding to anything you want to heat up and add flavor and boundless nutrition. Even just a tablespoon added to something is enough to heat it correctly- while adding nourishment and helping you make a nice little sauce instead of using too much butter and burning it.
