Made a simple dish for this week’s and it came out amazing! Braised Beef with some tomato and onion over a bed of rice. Got a boneless chuck steak on sale, seared it off with some simple seasoning. Then added my onions to sweat a bit with the meat before throwing in the remaining ingredients and some water. Then we let the dish dictate when it’s done by the level of reduction, in this case it reduced by about half or slightly more. Remember when doing slow braises or reductions to add seasonings sparingly, the flavor will continue to concentrate and while you can always add some salt you can’t take it out. Focus is going to be shifting to more instruction based posts instead of food on a plate. How did we end up there? Can’t wait for next week, look forward to some photos of another gig on Saturday!
