What did you Keto today? Part Deux!


(Running from stupidity) #2358

Pickled eggs with bacon. The perfect breakfast.


(Jane) #2359

Homemade bacon. Going to let it cool and then stick it in the fridge overnight. Tomorrow I’ll freeze it for an hour and then slice it.

I have to slice by hand and it’ll be easier if the slab is slightly frozen.


(Jane) #2360

Ok, I couldn’t wait so I sliced one strip off and fried it up.

Yum.

Just a little charcuterie to chew on.


(Sophie) #2362

Cooked chili in the crock pot today. It was a cold, rainy, nasty, overcast kind of day…but all that luscious fat kept me drooling every time I checked on the stuff! :drooling_face:

Pork belly & Asparagus Stirfry and 2 egg cheese omelette. Salad w/ caesar.

I just bought some pork belly this week and I am not sure how to cook or prepare it. Do you have any suggestions or tips?

You & your beautiful tables again :smile:


(Karen) #2368

It was pretty. My husband cooked the meal and set the table. He’s retired now and I was at work. I found these lovely Christmas dishes At the local thrift. I get a 20% discount on Tuesdays for being over 60. This set for serving 12 was $20. Couldn’t resist.

I can see why :slightly_smiling_face: Very nice table indeed.

Hi Iced.
I keep it simple. Ample salt & pepper all around. 425f for abt 45-55 mins for color, then down to 325f for another 60-75 mins.
Should be golden crispy outside, some fat rendered (save it for stirfry) and lots of fat still in the belly. Cool and it keeps in the fridge for at least a week. Cut off what you want and pan fry it as needed. Easy.

Umm, just re-read what I wrote for breakfast but delete pickle references.


(Mike W.) #2372

Had a couple friends over for dinner and a bourbon tasting. Didn’t tell them the food was “Keto”. Everyone loved it. Sous vide and smoked chicken thigh with a creamy Marsala mushroom sauce over a garlic mashed cauliflower and charred asparagus with truffle. Pot de creme with fresh whipped cream and berries for dessert.




(Running from stupidity) #2373

Steak. Just steak. Well, with a bit of Wasabi paste. But really, just steak.


(Mike W.) #2374

Is that like the appetizer?


(Karen) #2375

Pot de creme with fresh whipped cream and berries for dessert.

It all looks so inviting. How do you make your dessert?
