Nice looking prime rib!
I have been trying new things whenever I get a chance lately. This time it was lamb chops. I got the full rack from costco, cut them into chops, marinated over night in olive oil, minced garlic and minced rosemary. Tossed them on the grill, and a little salt. I was expecting to eat them myself, my kids are 9, 6, and 4... I was mistaken. I only got one bite, the kids devoured these things. My 6 year old ate 2 chops and then asked 'is this cow?' I said no, its lamb. She replied 'I don't want to eat a cute little lamb...but its SO good (and she took another bite)' |

Drinks and Dinner over the weekend. Amazing bartender. Martinis were perfect. Chargrilled oysters and steak were sublime.

I did a preparation that I have read about but never seen done.
These are Branzino (european sea bass), I put slices of lemon, slices of shallot, and a sprig of rosemary in the cavity. The interesting part is making a salt dome over the fish and then putting it in the wood oven. This is a great way to cook a fish, the moisture is locked in, but you have to be careful to not drop pieces in the salt. Next time I will do a bigger fish, a little less surface area to the volume of the meat (I intended to get red snapper, but it was out). Two other things I will do, give the pan a coat of olive oil, or better yet a piece of parchment paper (Cleaning the pan was a bitch), and give the fish a coat of oil before packing it with salt. The skin did come off nicely, but I could see that being a potential problem. |

In related news, I have been feeding a sourdough culture for the last few days, I think its about ready to produce some delicious loaves of bread.
Its a lot like having a pet, feeding it every 12 hours and such. But once its fully active, you can slow it down in the fridge. We'll see how it goes, I have done loaves of bread in the wood fired oven before, but not from a 'natural' starter, I did a poolish (for anyone whis interested). I also think I have a good idea on how it 'inject steam' We shall see. |

I did something similar to your link, twice. The first time it just did start, I think I kept everything too clean, you are supposed to get your hands in there, and let it be exposed to the air. I kept it pretty covered up because we have a cat running around the house. The second time I was 'less' clean and it started but got funky and I threw it away. Knowing what I know now, I think it was doing what it was supposed to be doing, but I didn't feed it often enough. This time I bought a dry package of (what is advertised as) Original San Francisco Starter, the procedure is basically the same and it takes about 4 days to a week it get it going. Feeding it twice a day etc. I would be more confidant doing one myself again, now that I know what I am looking for, and what it should smell like etc. My understanding, from reading a couple books on this stuff, is that eventually "local" yeasts from wherever you are will take over your culture. Maybe just one opinion, but it makes some sense. |

Looks like it’s well on it’s way! BTW, I thought this was especially well done:
