via deep fried egg

Yes, this morsel is as amazing as it looks. A creation from Ubuntu. A soft-boiled egg with a crisp, well seasoned exterior and delicious remoulade. It is a delicately arranged pile of good things. Ubuntu has recently shared recipes with the likes of Gourmet, Oprah magazine and Bon Appetit. Everything they make is extraordinary.



recipe for deep fried eggs:

sriracha remoulade
1/2 cup mayo
2 1/2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons sriracha
1 tablespoon whole grain dijon mustard
1 tablespoon chopped pickles
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped tarragon
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped parsley
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped chives
1 1/2 teaspoons chopped capers
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
3 large hard-boiled eggs

whisk first 10 ingredients in medium bowl. Stir in eggs.

deep-fried eggs
9 large eggs, room temperature
1/4 cup buttermilk
2 tablespoons sriracha
1/2 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup semolina flour
1 cup panko
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
peanut oil for frying

Gently lower 6 eggs into large saucepan of boiling water, reduce heat to medium and simmer 6 minutes for soft-boiled eggs. Drain. Cover eggs with cold water and cool. Very gently crack and peel eggs.

Whisk remaining 3 eggs, buttermilk and sriracha in medium bowl. Whisk both flours in another medium bowl. Mix panko and coarse salt in another medium bowl. Gently roll one egg at a time in flour mixture, then egg mixture, then panko mixture. Place on rimmed baking sheet.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Pour enough oil into saucepan to measure 2 inches. Heat to 375 degrees. In 2 batches, fry eggs until golden brown, about 2 minutes. With slotted spoon, transfer to ovenproof plate and place in oven 3 minutes to heat through.

Serve atop 1/4 cup of remoulade. Garnish with dandelion greens.

sriracha straight up

I do not want to pin this on Omnivore's Dilemma but the reading of the book has resulted in two nearly immediate consequences.
-The desire to raise chickens (mark my words)
-A craving for KFC

via brussels sprouts

These brussels are simple and delicious, inspired by a side dish at the recently visited and much adored Joseph Leonard in NYC. It was the encounter with these brussels sprouts and the simultaneous receipt of February's Bon Appetit magazine from my dear sister that inspired Sriracha Appreciation Week. I will pay due homage to Joseph Leonard's soggy toast at a later date.

recipe for sriracha via brussels sprouts:

1 pound brussels sprouts, give or take
1 tablespoon sriracha
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
few dashes of fish sauce
salt
pepper

Halve brussels sprouts. Mix remaining ingredients to taste in large bowl. Feel free to omit or add ingredients accordingly to personal style. Toss brussels to coat.

Roast at 425 degrees until desired tenderness is achieved, approximately 20 minutes.

Enjoy!
