A Menu of Future Entrees

Just as a heads up, I thought I’d drop a list of the items I have on the back burner for this blog.

   While I’ll continue to describe the crazy antics of daily work in the kitchen, many of my posts will be on different topics that will likely be of more interest for readers.

    First and foremost will be an introduction to some of the more unusual foods that come through our kitchen…  noteworthy discoveries on our plates recently:  bakwaa, wild boar prosciutto, popcorn sprouts, miracle berries, lychee fruits, and Army issued MREs.  I know, most of us remember college food tasting like MREs, but there have been quite a few changes in the last decade…

   Next, tips and tricks in the kitchen, everything from pairing wines and cheeses to menu design and cutting cakes or safe chopping methods and equipment recommendations.

   I’ll also post a few complete menus when I have the chance (generally with pictures of each course) that we’ve done recently.

   There might just be observations on the current trend of celebrity chefs and reality kitchen shows, as well as my own life’s history (and how it took this odd turn into the food mining business) as wel as more general rants on the business.

   Finally, I might just crack open the Kitchen Bible I maintain and rewrite a few of the recipes for use in household kitchens. 

    If there’s anythign in here that particularly piques your interest, let me know and I’ll make sure to get it out first.
