TV and Foods

最近迷上電視影集 History Channel 的Viking 和 HBO Game of Thorn 權利遊戲 尤其Game of Thorn甚是口味腥辣 其中權力鬥爭的黑暗 人性的複雜 是Lord of Ring加甄嬛傳 再好看十倍 劇中對白更是絕妙 好的牑劇 真是成功的一半
這篇食物與GOT結合 很幽默 至少成功引起我的興趣 想試試其中一些食譜


What to Eat While Watching Game of Thrones

BETTER TV DINNERS


null

I have a confession to make: I eat dinner while watching Game of Thrones. If you watch the series, you probably know it's not exactly the most appetizing of TV shows, but nonetheless it happens. I have discovered, however, that there are some dishes better suited for sudden gore or lewd scenes. So if you too find yourself watching HBO on a Sunday night, here's my guide to choosing the right meal.
The key to eating while watching Game of Thrones is not eat anything too messy, too healthy, or meat that's too rare. Keep things simple and hearty and you'll be set. As should be expected, there will be a lot of meat going on in these dishes.
I've broken down this guide into menus based on the main families or people inGame of Thrones, so whether you're a fan of the Starks or the White Walkers, you'll be able to find a suitable dinner.

Starks

The prominent Stark family is a group of smart warriors. They're Northerners that deserve a meal that keeps them warm, but something a little more special than a stew. Try these hearty lamb shanks with root vegetables, and finish with elderflower lemon cake (duh).

Lannisters


null

You only get to drink red wine for dinner. Sorry. That is all.

Targaryens

If you're a fan of the mother of dragons, you're going to need something with lots of protein. While I wouldn't recommend eating a horse heart like Khaleesi did, thissteak with burbon butter will honor her. For dessert? Chocolate cake. Decadent and essential.

Baratheons

In honor of the onion knight and the red lady, keep things spicy and cozy with thisbraised French onion chicken with gruyrère. Add a simple side salad if you must, and end with this vegan gingerbread cake. Make the lord of light proud.

Tyrells

Oh, the Tyrells, what do they have up their sleeves? A meal worthy of this family should be sophisticated but strong. For your main course try this turnip soup with chickpea croutons and end with this blueberry pie.

House Arryn/Littlefinger

Littlefinger is possibly the sneakiest person in this series, and his refined and sophisticated exterior requires a meal of a less hearty dish. This grain salad with blood orange is a must, followed by blackberry cabernet granita. Both should be eaten cold.

Greyjoys

The Greyjoys live on the Iron Islands, so start your meal with some oysters and then move on to a a hearty fish stew like this creamy dairy-free fish chowder. No dessert for you.

Martells

The Martells are an energetic, powerful bunch that keep the Lannisters in check. For dinner try this orzo with vegetables and ginger and for dessert try these mysterious dark chocolate walnut cookies.

The Night's Watch

The men of the Night's Watch aren't fancy. In protecting the Wall they deal with lots of crazy stuff and deserve a warm, hearty meal that isn't very expensive. Make thisvegetarian Shepherd's Pie for dinner, and drink lots of homemade beer.

Army of the Free Folk

It's tough out there for a Wildling. North of the Wall is a cold, harsh place, but south of the Wall isn't safe either. You have to take what you can get in terms of food. You only eat scraps of stuff: take a couple spoonfuls of some brown stew and then try a handful of this garlicky roasted broccoli followed by this bacon beans with pineapple.

White Walkers


null

If you're a fan of the White Walkers and want to support them on their secret plans of world domination, all you should eat for dinner is some one-ingredient banana ice cream. Cold, strong, forceful. You don't need real food to survive.

Holiday is coming...

一接近Holiday season 雜誌上就開始教人烤東西 烤火雞 烤鴨 烤牛排 烤餅乾 烤派 烤蛋糕 反正食物只要簡單調味 送進烤箱 出來就會是美味的節慶餐點
今天就來試試橘蜜烤鴨 成品顏色烤得不錯 鴨胸肉也保持得鮮嫩多汁 不過原本是想烤成脆皮鴨 沒成功 鴨子真肥 烤盤下都是鴨油 接了一大碗  下次來炸薯條
五磅的全鴨擦乾 內外抹鹽胡椒 鴨肚塞切半的橘子
400F先烤20 mins上色 再350F烤60-90 mins到熟 中間查看不要烤焦了 也要途中翻面烤均勻
最後塗上橘子蜂蜜烤5-10 mins

土鍋燉飯 秋刀魚雜菜

這是從台灣搬回來的土鍋 這次開鍋養鍋很成功 內層養得白嫩細滑 (em...我是在說鍋子嗎?)
照著Harumi Kurihara (她在日本主婦中地位 大概像台灣的傅培梅 美國的Martha Stewart)的食譜 烹出這種日式燉飯 雖然片秋刀魚除魚刺有點麻煩 但成果真的很美味 又營養均衡 而且重要的秘密武器是梅子喔 除了可去魚腥味 微酸的口感 還可促進食欲

也賀烘培再次成功的作品 這次所有都是自製 包括底層芒果蛋糕 芒果慕思 中間的草莓果醬 上層芒果果醬 加上外圍的手指餅乾 其實烘培 料理最enjoy的是設計 構思 執行 收尾的整個過程 可以把腦中的一丁點的靈感 轉換成可以與大家分享的實體 這是很好玩的挑戰 唯一不好玩的是中間洗不完的器具 不停要整理的廚房 我是主廚兼清潔老墨呀...
加映中午的pasta QQ的耳朵pasta (Orecchio) 配黄瓜番茄雞蓉玉米栗 上桌前灑上新鮮的羊奶乳酪 pasta的熱會把乳酪融入麵裏 好吃 這是第二盤 所以拍得有點醜
