Since every one already covered the cheeks I'll share the recipe :)

Ingredients:

  • 1.2 kg of pork cheeks
  • 50 cl of okay-ish red wine
  • 40 cl of veal / beef stock
  • 200 gr of smoked pork belly
  • 2 carrots
  • 2 shallots
  • some celeri
  • 5 cloves of garlic
  • 1 ts of tomato puree
  • thyme, laurel

Instructions: It's actually super simple. Lightly salt the cheeks and let them in the fridge for a while (preferably a night) to dry. Then pat dry the cheeks and brown them HARD then set them aside. Then you mince carrots, shallots, celeri and garlic and you heat them in the same pot in which you roasted the cheeks till shallots are translucent. Add the tomato puree, cook a bit. Deglaze with the wine, let it boil so alchool gets removed and then add the stock. Add the thyme & laurel, shove the pot to the oven for 3h at 145°c.

Once done, remove the cheeks, mix the sauce & reduce. Once reduced enough remove from the heat and add a bit of butter to make is brilliant and absolutely delicious.

It's one of the cheapest meat around these days (about 10€ a kg), seemingly not popular but cooked long and slow it's super nice.

As a bonus, the next day you can super easily turn the reminders into a shepered's pie of some sort by layering pureed potatos with the cheeks in sauce.

    What I don’t quite get is how does this work with the increasing amount of proxy inventories of those platforms. If the small package is sent from a local storage, is it exempt of the fee? If so this is just punishing small foreign players :(

    That’s not helping… IMDB is a link aggregator what’s your basis for chalking it as unreliable ? Why are you compelled to explain me that you don’t need to know everything the second there’s a rumour? That’s unrelevant to my question. Are you implying something ?

    Eventually that leaves the load to the source event if it’s differed. And the load would still grow along the growth of the fediverse. So this would likely be pushing the issue to tomorrow. Signing content checksum isn’t exactly like reinventing a wheel, it’s something done in many contexts. And it removes the load from the source entirely.

    One of my employees is following bakery courses because apparently data governance is not hype enough anymore.

    She shared with me some recipes and daaaaaamn those are delicious.

    I’m torn between losing her as an employee once she launches her bakery and enjoying her newfound expertise.

    We call these babies « croustillons » and those are typical carnival donut here in Belgium.

    Making the dough is super simple;

    250gr of flour 150ml of tepid milk
    1 egg
    7gr of dry yeast
    20 gr of sugar
    20 gr of softened butter
    4gr of salt
    1 small pack of Vanilla sugar

    Beat the crap out of it for about 5 mins

    And after a while it has doubled its volume:

    Deep fried for a couple of minutes

    And then add a lot of icing sugar -------

     

    Not legit karaage as I did a batter, not quite tempura either but a mix of both.

    Chicken was marinated about 2 hours then floured before being dipped in liquid batter tempura style.

    Then for added crispy goodness I dipped them partially in panko

    Before deep frying them till cooked

    Rested and served with a mayo tweaked with soy sauce, lime, sriracha and some cucumbers on the side :)

     

    Now is time for some panicky wait time. I’m really hoping I did not forget anything critical. If everything goes to plan we’ll be 4 to man the gigantic pump I requested and reel the cement mix in place. I have some shovels, rakes and I rented a vibrating ruler to help the finish.

    weather is back to seasonal normals at around 25 after too many weeks over 30+.

    Still I’m pretty sure I’m forgetting something.
