House-Cured Pancetta, Egg Yolk, Avocado, Tomato, and Hearts of Palm
Tomatoes from Mindy! That’s the pancetta I’ve been working on for a month resting on top of a quick poached egg yolk….when the yolk is broken it flows over the other items on the plate. The pancetta is rendered then I worked that fat into the avocado puree. There’s more to it but I won’t bore you with you details. Eric

Scrambled Egg, Chorizo Sauce, Breakfast Burrito…..YES PLEASE!!!!f
Had a little chorizo left over from the other day so I decided to put it to good use. I don’t think there is a bad use for chorizo. Chorizo lip balm, chorizo pants, chorizo light-rail system, chorizo large hadron collider, chorizo long division, chorizo chorizo (a new boy band)……. Yeah, chorizo works with everything, especially breakfast burritos! Saute up yellow and red bell peppers with a bit of onion and clarified butter. Season with smoked paprika, salt, and pepper […]

Fried Duck Egg over Ham, Leeks, Carrots, over Fingerling Hash with Green Peppercorn Glace de Viande Sauce

I started by grating fingerling potatoes then cooking them in a cast iron pat with lots of clarified butter, salt, pepper, and tarragon filler. On the stove for […]

Dry Aged Steak, Scrambled Eggs, Pickled Shallots, Yellow Bell Pepper, with Sherry Vinaigrette
Had a few nice sizable chunks of that 15 day aged steak so I decided to eat it again, this time for breakfast. Excellent way to start the day! I’m experimenting with the shallots to see how they react to different fats after being pickled. Lose taste in butter, duck fat, canola? No. Caramelize a little bit with saute? Yes, this is ideal. Sherry vinegar tastes a little sweet to me so pairing the sherry pickled shallots with yellow bell […]

Parmentier of Oxtail with Foie Gras and Quail Egg ala Rover’s
The Chef in the Hat (Chef Thierry Rautureau) visited my blog a week ago so I decided I would try to tackle one of the recipes from his book. My execution of this dish is nowhere near his but I think it’s a step in the right direction. I won’t post the recipe because I think you should go buy his book, it’s amazing. However, here are a few steps from the 3-4 hour process…….all worth it. I will do […]
