Providence

I had convection turned on!

Thanks for the tip! I should be partaking this weekend and was wondering about the heating given what I’ve seen on the other at-home heating instructions where maybe you and others commented on the prescribed heating instructions not being quite enough. Can’t wait! :yum:

My sister got the takeout menu, and I had her add on a pound of the A5 Wagyu for me. Cooked it Wednesday night, and wow, it was just as if not more delicious than any A5 I’ve ever had at a restaurant. The Wagyu comes with cooking instructions, which we modified slightly. Here’s what we did:

(0): Cut off and eat a tiny sliver of the raw meat.

(1) Liberally season with salt and pepper. Massage in on both sides.
(2) Heat a bit of oil in a cast iron pan on the stove.
(3) Wait until absurdly hot.
(4) Plop on the steak.
(5) 45 seconds, flip, 45 seconds flip, 30 seconds, flip, 30 seconds, done.
(6) Tightly wrap in tinfoil for 3 minutes.
(7) EAT!

Has anybody tried the uni pasta kit or the hot-smoked striped bass cheeks and collars? The cheeks and collars sound great in a donabe. @attran99, @TheCookie, @J_L, @NYCtoLA, @CiaoBob, @butteredwaffles

No surf this week but still very good. Highlights were the perfect cavatelli, polenta and bomboloni.

I wish!!! But I’ll settle for celebrity soup (they have their own soup), scallop dumplings, maine lobster stuffed w/peaky toe crab (whatever the heck that is) and summer fruit dessert!
