#cooking experiments

So I'm doing a thing. I was watching about a place in France that's an experimental archaeology site building a 13th century castle. The historian on it was talking about cooking in one show and she parboiled, roasted, and then fried a pork roast. It has been living in my brain rent free since I saw it, so I decided to try it. I made a really flavorful broth and boiled a pork tenderloin (and my house smells amazing!). Now I'm "roasting" it. (Yes I know that roasting is technically over an open flame and an electric oven is actually 'baking' it. I don't care.)

Yo guys! Guess who made something crazy in the kitchen today...

So you see... We got these awesome purple carrots! And if you cook them in say a curry it goes purple!!!

So I made purple curry XXDDD

I made a seafood Thai green curry and I chucked in a bunch of our awesome purple carrots and watched it slowly go from green to purple!

Turns out I've been making myself Monte Cristo sandwiches for years, but until today I didn't know they were an actual thing...

Like I'm a horrible cook, but I like to experiment with what I can make successfully, and I can make grilled cheese and I can make french toast and I can make ham and cheese sandwiches, so I figured why not combine them all and make an ultimate brunch meal.

And now I find out this is an actual thing? How many of my other experiment meals are actual recipes too? Do other people combine quesadillas and omelets to make another ultimate brunch meal? Do other families make hot chocolate porridge for breakfast every morning? I don't know anymore...

For my LARP, since our faction is drow-like cave people, I’m infusing mushroom liquor! Trust me, it tastes better than it sounds.

I’m using a brandy base, and trying out oyster, crimini, and chantrelle mushrooms. Once I settle on a mushroom I may experiment with herbs.

I am going to attempt to make coffee syrup so I can make fraps.
