We went to Paris! It was incredible. The museums, the architecture, and of course... THE FOOD. We simply had to cook French food when we got home. So we made:
Quiche Lorraine: A pie crust filled with a custard ( eggs + milk + heavy cream ), that's filled with shredded swiss cheese, scrumptious bacon bits, and sautéed onions. Oh, la, la!!! Creme Brulee: A dessert made of a cold, smooth custard bottom and a hard top of blow-torched sugar. Divine!!!Enjoy!

Luscious Lamb Chops. Decadent Pasta. Simply, divine!
We pulled these recipes from Carla Lalli Music's, 'Where Cooking Begins'.
Herbaceous grilled lamb chops: Lamb chops marinated in olive oil, red wine vinegar, crushed coriander seeds, mint, rosemary, and basil. Pasta all'amatriciana with confit tomatoes: Fusili pasta with confited tomatoesk pancetta, red onion, grated parmesan cheese, and crushed red pepper.It's a great recipe book. There are specific recipes, but also guides on methods of cooking, like confit.
Enjoy!

We made Loaves & Fishes! Well, a loaf & a fish. We received a wonderful cookbook as a gift: Ottolenghi Test Kitchen. We cracked it open. The two recipes that stood out to us were spiced soda bread and tahini salmon. So, we got into the kitchen and got to it.
The spiced soda bread was insanely delicious. The tahini salmon tasted great and gave us a lot of ideas for the future.
Enjoy!

Patatas Bravas

Pinchitos
Lots of potatoes, eggs, and meat skewers! We enjoyed all of what we cooked, however the seasoning for the Pinchitos stole the show. Later in the week, we used the same spices & marinade with Pork and Lamb.

We try our hand at Brazilian food. For this edition, we cooked three dishes: Picanha, Camarão No Leite de Coco, and Arroz e Feijão.
Picanha is top sirloin cap, a delicious cut of beef. Camarão No Leite de Coco is shrimp cooked with peppers in a coconut milk sauce. And, Arroz e Feijão is rice and beans -- a classic!This was a great meal and did not require too much labor. Thank you, Brazil!

This episode brings us to CHINA! We're trying our hand at two delicious recipes from two different provinces: Soup Dumplings ( Jiangsu Province) & Hunan Beef ( Hunan Province )
We labored for hours prepping the dough, folding the pleats on the dumplings, reducing a soup into delicious gelatin, frying up marinaded flank steak -- suffice it to say, this was a lot of work, but a lot of reward too! A most enjoyable meal.
Nothing like some hot dumps on a wintry evening to warm your soul.

We made Indian food! This was our first time cooking Indian food. We made three dishes for our meal: naan bread, punjabi chana ( chick peas in a tomato-based spice sauce ), and butter chicken ( also known as: murgh makhani ).

A change of pace on this episode: A BOOK REVIEW. We go over Dr. Ted Naiman's, 'The P:E Diet' which illuminates the levers one has to pull both to lose weight and build muscle. We dig into the WHAT of eating, the WHEN of eating, and the HOW of exercise. When we recognize how to exercise properly, when to eat vs. when to fast, and what foods to choose we improve our health with east. The cliff notes are:
Prioritize eating Protein ( protein is your friend ) Minimize frequency of eating Carbohydrates ( become fat adapted! ) Eat added Energy sparingly ( don't drown your food in oils ) Be cautious of Fats and Carbs together ( these drive overeating ) Exercise Intensely and Consistently ( workout efficiently 5X/wk )Find the companion article to this podcast here: https://jilliansnutritionnook.com/the-pe-diet-a-book-review/
