3 nuts veggies and sausages.

A raid to the pantry, a stop at the fridge .... tonight I grabbed all I could find and combined it with nuts and soy sauce.

I sliced the potatoes, carrots, sweet potatoes with a mandolin, a got them to steam cook for about 20 minutes.

In the meantime, I cooked the breakfast sausages and once fully cooked, I took them out of the pan.

While the sausages were cooking, I chopped the onion, shallot, garlic and the nuts.

In the same pan, I threw the onions, shallots, garlic and a mix of nuts ( cashews, pecans, pine nuts) and roasted / cooked them.

When cooked, I deglazed the pan with gluten-free soy sauce, and let it reduce a little bit. I added 1/4 cup of Mirin, a little bit of Hoisin sauce, and 2 tablespoons of peanut butter. Combine everything and added the steam-cooked vegetables.

I laid the sausages back into the pan and ..... served.

Tenderloin grass fed beef with shallot sauce.

Being French, I was raised with good food, flavours, and a certain attraction to onions, and shallots..... I bought this half cow of grass-fed beef, excellent meat, the only thing is: it's a brand new way of cooking. The grasse-fed meat is lean, therefore, if cooked at a high temperature, it becomes chewy. It's been a long learning process for me, I almost gave up on the type of meat, then I discovered Sous-Vide cooking. That changed my life !! For the sauce, you will need : 6 shallots peeled and thinly sliced 1/2 cup of white wine 5 tablespoons of sour cream Olive oil Butter Salt and pepper For the steak 2 tenderloin steaks 1 shallots Salt and pepper to taste. Sauce : Peel and slice the shallots, and cook them in the pan with olive oil and butter. When browned, add the white wine and reduce for a few minutes. Add the sour cream, salt, and pepper, and reduce to thicken. The tenderloin steaks : I use sous-vide for tender...

Sous-Vide chuck roast beef

I buy my meat straight at the farm, and I like knowing how it was fed and where it comes from. Last year, I bought a cow that was exclusively grass-fed. If the meat was lean and tasty, it definitely lacked fat. I cooked it, and we ate it, but more than once I was disappointed with the result. It was chewy, very chewy ..... I asked on some forums what my solution could be to avoid this fact, and one person came up with the idea of trying sous-vide cooking. I ordered a water circulating device, took a large plastic container, and gave it a try. I must say that I was not disappointed, and I decided to explore that method of cooking a little more. We finished that cow, ate it all .... and I went to another farm to buy half a cow that was grass-fed BUT grain-finished. Today I tried to make a chuck roast, using the sous-vide technique and finishing it in the oven. That was a success !! Steps : I used a frozen roast. Put it (still frozen) in a bag ( a ziploc...
