Upcoming culinary projects:
The Great Gently-Masturbated Chicken Roast-Off, as previously chronicled, hopefully taking place this weekend.
Caramelized pork belly. I think first I'm going to do a more traditional Vietnamese-style version of it, and then if that goes well I'm going to see if I can actually candy it in a slightly savory hard caramel. This is predicated on me getting my hands on an extra-large cast iron skillet, as currently I only own a small one, and also finding a butcher that will custom-slice pork belly for me. I guess I'm off to the Italian Market, unless anyone knows a good pigmonger in the area they can recommend.
The Double Down. Yes, I want to do my own version the infamous KFC "sandwich". In case you've been hiding under a rock, it's bacon, mayonnaise and cheese stuck between two deep-fried breaded chicken cutlets. Mmm! I know some of you are thinking that that sounds like a vulgar, disgusting example of lard-gilding the cholesterol-lily, but that's only because you lack any sense of adventure. And also, you're right.
