afternoon of cooking :)

here is the much requested follow up to my day of morning prep for this dinner party w/ @teds_zaza including a very brief look at the entire dinner party. if you want a little breakdown of the dinner, we served 3 pizzas and 3 pastas (you can see the full rundown on my recent video a couple weeks ago) and i was in charge of all of the pastas which i kind of ideated and just made on the fly this day. my personal favorite of the three was the mushroom on mushroom on mushroom pasta (mushroom sauce, mushroom breadcrumbs, pickled mushrooms, crispy oyster mushrooms) followed by the pesto pasta and then the pea pasta, though i did think all of them came out very well. usually for dinner parties i like to just think of a dish i am really excited about making and then use it to theme the rest of the meal typically with seasonal produce in mind, but at the end of the day as long as you cook food you are happy with, there is almost no way the dinner will go poorly. i hope you all enjoy this video, something fun and relaxing to watch for your afternoon and as always if you have any questions feel free to comment below or message me directly :D

How to make chicken stock w/ @lecreuset

Today we are making the backbone of hundreds of recipes, chicken stock. To specify, this is white chicken stock (compared to brown chicken stock) which is when the bones and vegetables are not roasted yielding a very clean, subtle, but highly versatile stock that is used in most restaurants. A few key notes to making stock are to always start with cold water. Cold water allows all of the ingredients to heat up gradually and at the same time, which means the chicken has time to release all of its impurities and fat and improves the end result of the stock. We also never boil our stocks because all of the fat that collects at the top would continuously mix into the stock making it impossible to skim off and would give us a fatty murky liquid. For those of you that want to use vegetable trim, and old herbs, you absolutely can adjust whatever ingredients you put into the pot, the flavor will just change accordingly. For me using a large pot like the Le Creuset Deep Dutch Oven also makes the entire process super simple to follow, the cast iron is great at maintaining a consistent heat, and if you wanted to make a darker stock of any kind, that same enamel coated cast iron develops the best sear and fond on vegetables and meat for soups and stocks. I also like how I can use it for all of my other tasks that require a deep pot like blanching, braises and of course baking whenever I need it!
