Extracts

January 17, 2012 by ericriveracooks

What do you need to do this?  Use vodka or better yet, everclear.   Depending on what you choose you can simply weigh it all out, can it cold, and place in the refrigerator for a few days then strain and you got yourself a nice bit of extract for sauces, marinating, baking, or whatever.   Some lend themselves better to going sous vide for about three to four hours.  So get to work, there are tons of crazy extracts […]

January 16, 2012 by ericriveracooks

Then pack them lightly in salt, reserve them in an airtight container, rinse, and make something fun. Take the heads and spines and make a stock with them then add a great tomato sauce and fold into rice. Pretty damn good, I grew up on that. Eric

Fried Skate Wing, Preserved Lemon, Fermented Chili Flake

January 3, 2012 by ericriveracooks

Needs a lot of refining in the presentation department but all of the flavors are there. Hope to do this a few more times this month and have it look up to snuff. Eric

Fermentation Projects: Orange/Cream Liqueur

January 3, 2012 by ericriveracooks

Saw it on Gizmodo, thought I would give it a try. It’s equal parts sugar, vodka, and whole milk. It’s flavored with two oranges and a meyer lemon.  Takes a couple of weeks to be amazing. Eric
