Not attractive but oh so delicious! Crock pot pork roasts. No liquid added. Ok well a bit of coconut aminos (carby. I know) Just seasoned and tossed in crock pot over one chopped onion and radishes. I lived on this this week. Well mostly. Fathead Foccia , eggs and bacon and the odd chicken thigh and an excess of coffee rounded out my week
What did you Keto today?
I’ve been meaning to roast radishes - do they really lose their “bite?”
Yes @CandyLindTX they do! I use them all the time now in soups and stews to replace potatoes. I love them drizzled in olive oil, sea salted and then roasted! They lose most of their “red” as well.
Soup experiment - pulled pork (smoked, Sam’s), roasted radishes (@Darlene_Horsley!) & celery, collards, bone broth, bouillon, sour cream, heavy cream. Needs more cream & a thickening agent, but the flavor is nice. Good comfort food candidate. I wanted more protein, but I was a good girl & added fat instead.
Thank goodness you posted this…Just put some chicken etc in the instant pot and forgot the celery!
I guess I owe you a big .
Fideos made with spaghetti squash instead of the traditional angel hair pasta. For kicks I added shrimp.
Not yet but it’s definitely gonna be on the mix. Glad to hear you liked them. I don’t care for the turnip substitute.
It’s March in New England so everyone’s Irish for the month! Even me, a totally non-Irish person lol. So what we get is called Gray Corned Beef, it’s super regional to the Boston area & only available for like, a month. It’s cured with salt instead of saltpeter so it doesn’t look red. It needs some of the salt soaked out before you cook it. I refresh the water every hour for three hours or more. Then it’s simmered in a big pot of water for 3 hours, I use peppercorn & bayleaf. Garlic is good too but I need to avoid garlic & onion most days so I skip it. Now untraditionally, instead of potatoes in with the meat, I roast some cubes of rutabaga in the oven along with a carrot chopped into a few big pieces. At the end of the boil I throw chopped cabbage into the broth to cook up & get salty. SO GOOD. Salty, fatty, savory, the veg taste sweet. Sometimes I make soup with the leftovers, sometimes hash. This year I’m going to try reubens on Keto rye. I jarred the broth to drink hot by the mugfull.
I like the bite of a raw radish but yes. Yes they do lose their bite when cooked. Milder and a nice vehicle for the fat and flavors they’re cooked with. Imo
Cooking this (well not gray but traditional corned beef) right now with cabbage and radishes (instead of potatoes)
