Cooking with Michael – A Liveblog: How to Make Brown

Today I got bored while cooking, and decided to liveblog it.  It was hilarious and lots of fun was had.  For posterity, here is a summary ((And by summary, I mean the whole shebang.)) of the liveblog.  Exciting!

Julienneing some tomatoes.Yes, I felt the need to tell that I’m having dinner tonight, even though I’m not in Africa, so it doesn’t exactly yield bragging rights.

Not only that, I also felt the need to let you in on the exact nature and shape of it.

Next up: I’ll open an Instagram account and get a pair of statement glasses.

More exciting news about my dinner: frying some asparagus in their own fat. Yes, they have their own fat when they’re wrapped in bacon, and why wouldn’t they be?

Dinner-trick: sausages can work as a delicious tasty alternative to meat. Especially when fried in duck grease do they add flavor texture to any meal.

Mystery pot is boiling. What’s in it? Well, if I knew told you, it wouldn’t be a mystery. Add a couple of left-over drink-ingredients whole lemons and a dab of wine vinegar for taste, and soon the fridge is empty of suspicious stuff dinner is ready.

This dish, like any dish that’s not just a lump of cheese, needs more cheese!

Finally, some spices. And by spices I mean a Leffe Brune and a cup of whatever’s on tap (which happens to be Liefmans Kriek).

I’m like a von Neumann machine of cooking: I started with a 2 liter container of brown and ended up with a 2 liter container of brown and dinner for two days.
