My trip to Ireland, as mentioned in my posts about Virgin Atlantic, started out in London visiting friends Darren and Ian. The next leg was getting to Dublin to meet up with Kevin. I booked British Airways CityFlyer from London City airport to Dublin. Even though it was a short flight (less than 1 1/2 […]
Christmas Day, 2017 You all may remember our couple of posts from last year here and the one where we sous-vide our prime rib which I thought turned out great, Kevin was a little less pleased than I. So this year we got back to basics by slow roasting. Both, the sous vide and the roasting […]
July 26, 2017 In my prior post about the Virgin Atlantic Upper Class Experience, I talked about the trip to London from Seattle. I also want to give a little more details about our return, from London Heathrow to Seattle. We booked into Upper Class for our return home at the end of a whirlwind […]
July 11, 2017 Another new airplane adventure! Virgin Atlantic, just this year, took over Delta’s route between Seattle and London. After years of flying exclusively British Airways on this route, I thought now was a great time to try something new for a change. Besides, I could snag an Upper Class (they’re version of Business […]
September 19, 2017 It’s chicken dinner night! Last weekend we caught an episode of The Barefoot Contessa on Food Network. I know it’s a stretch of the imagination, but she featured yet another take on roast chicken. This time featuring Chef Dan Silverman’s Million Dollar Chicken from The Standard Gill in New York City. After […]

April 25, 2017 Another sous vide adventure this evening. I got home just before Kevin, which is unusual as we typically leave work at about the same time, but his work is 1/2 the distance from home than mine. I took the opportunity to lay down in bed for a quick bit. Before I had […]
A couple weeks ago we were up at the local Asian grocery store, Uwajimaya, and found a nice slab of pork belly (the actually called it pork side). Our first thought was “Sous Vide!” We got about a two pound piece to bring home. This weekend, we finally got around to throwing it in the […]
Who doesn’t love bacon? (Sorry vegetarians and the pork-adverse!) Well, we love bacon. But we don’t love cooking bacon. Granted there are worse smells you can have in you home than bacon, but it’s does tend to linger and permeate the house. We’ve found a better way: sous vide, thanks to chefsteps.com and Joule.
