Just inherited a 70's Le Creuset cast iron casserole, so much casserole, many stew and all kinds of cassoulet will be happening. Anyone got any favourite recipes?

Beef with carrots ftw.

Do not put it anywhere near a dishwasher or aggressively clean it.

It'll be naturally non-stick by now due to baked-on oil.

We the meat people need timings! Pm me and I'll do some meat scavenging there on my own and your behalf..

beautiful.

Breakfast, lunch, supper or dinner,
vitriol's always a winner!

He wrote the tasting notes at Grifter?!? Lori and Erin know the guy who started that brewery, Cook Suck is in the circle... How exciting...

Am wheezy laughing at this:

Now we’re talking - I truly want to meet the fucking MONSTER who thinks they could get away with pulling this cake out as a Valentines gift. Like it would take a truly special breed of horrible person to even contemplate it. I love how Woolworth’s don’t even fucking care anymore as well, they just underpay some school kid to draw terrifying hearts on these fucking disgusting cake flavoured sweetened flour products and dump them in a box for emotionally vacant animals to give to people they don’t give a shit about.

my all time fav

ox cheeks thinly sliced floured and seasoned
Quickly fried both side laid on top of your fav root vegetables (mine are parsnips,carrots turnips rough chopped) pour in the contents of one can of Guinness. Cover and slow cook for four hours. When ready serve with horseradish and gnocchi..

This is my ultimate comfort food in winter.

Today however I'm making Ajiaco. Every Colombian know this dish and its a faff to make but epic. Need a big pot

Whole chicken skinned with 1.5 pint of water, start slow boil
Stock ingredients chopped small and blended:-

• 4 sticks of celery
  
• one med size potato (peeled)
  
• one onion
  
• coriander (save some leaves for garnish)
  
  

Add blended stock into pot then
Cassava (Yucca) peeled chopped
White potato peeled chopped
Sweet corn on cob cut into thick discs

Cook for one hour
Serve into large shallow bowl pour thick cream, topped capers and coriander garnish, fresh avocado wedge of lemon or lime

Damn those ox cheeks sound amazing.

Gonna do that this week.

Yes, after four hours the meat falls apart. Ox cheeks are really tough hence slow cooking. I use a large tagine dish. Shop around sainsbury do them occasionally, but don't go anywhere upmarket and pay more than 4 quid.

The other colombian stews I do in a large pot are:-
Mondongo - when i find tripe
Sancoucho de Cola - when I find ox tail

Tested cooking short ribs in Gochujang and beer this weekend - served on St John buns and with Endive, butter, lemon and anchovy.

Been experimenting with roast Cauliflower recently - made this roasted with garlic and brown butter with a parmesan and white wine sauce (not in picture) to make a kind of cauliflower cheese.

Which brings me to my next and most important question.

Pickles. Gherkin type things. What are you favourite brands, forum? Salty or vinegary? Sweet or sour? Soft or crunchy? Big or little? Which jars should we be seeking out?

I really fancied some ox cheeks yesterday, went to the shops and they've stopped doing all the good stuff like oxtail, tongue, heart and cheeks... Bloody shame that...

Mrs Elswoods, but only the dill spears. They are sweet and delicious and somehow both soft and crunchy.
Krakus - not so heavily flavoured. More salty than sweet, but just. Light and crunchy.

I think you've just described all the soups at El Rancho de Lalo, thanks so much! Been dying to know the tripe recipe, now I can find it online!

iceland. land of ice. and reason.

I couldn't get ox cheeks so did it with beef shin instead. Forty five minutes to nom nom time.

Mmmmmmm.

Ajiaco

Had this in Bogota, so nice. Basically anything South American with corn in it gets my vote.

So pretty much everything... ☺

Exactly. You really can't go wrong in a country where everything has corn in it and comes with plantains.

Started to make cachapas at home ... so quick and easy, so nice.

What recipe/spicing did you use? They look great.
