Reet Roaf.....going in the oven..

They look like big crawfish so I cooked them like big crawfish. In a spoon-dissolving inferno of triple strength crawfish boil, boiled 5 minutes and steeped for 20 more. They came out delicious. You never ate a lobster like these in Boston.
One of the dishes that can be served for breakfast, lunch or a fast, informal dinner:

Semolina porridge
With cinnamon, sugar, raisins and butter.

Lean beef burger, half pound, seasoned with Slap Ya Mama, quick seared and braised in tawny port til medium-well, on ciabatta roll grilled in butter with Clausen pickle plank, Creole tomato, and sweet onion sliced thin. Accompanied by an 8.4% ABV homebrewed ale. By the time we finished these, our plates were filled with juice. The port or sherry braising makes them crazy juicy even at well done. The flavors are much more developed once you go past medium, and the braised finish keeps them juicy.
Ive always preferred crab over lobster and shrimp over crawfish. That being said,I can eat crawfish as good as any man and the idea of Lobster done up as such intrigues me. Suckin the heads of those baby's has got to be an experience indeed. It would seem as if it might be very rich.I also like the idea of two worlds colliding. Cajun spice meets the butter bath hmmmmmmm...............I'm game! And now I'm thinking Lobster Etoufee maybe or even Cajun Lobster roll ?! New horizons in a most delicious sort of way.:angel:
Dessert on the weekend was this maple tart!
Wife and I celebrated our 35th first date and I only snapped this quick pic.

Twas tasty as it looked.
One of the nice things with Semolina porridge / Cream o wheat is that leftovers makes it simple to make

Semolina pudding (with raspberry sauce).

Some very nice frozen ahi, dusted with wasabi powder and dredged in flour seasoned with red pepper and annato, with no egg or milk or batter. Fried in a smoking hot skillet with olive oil until medium rare. Not bad.

Ventured out for some groceries. Nothing left in the produce aisles, or paper products.
Lots of empty shelves, but a good dinner none the less.

Just made some Dutch oven bread...seeing that I couldn’t buy any. Thanks Covid 19 for bringing out the baker in me !Attachment 317675
I bet it tastes better than the store bought.
I'm looking forward to hearing how the 'Taste Test' goes--:tu
There’s nothing like homemade bread....my first time .....tasty too. I think Iam going to be making this all the time. Pretty easy...flour ,salt,yeast,hot tap water...and a Dutch oven...oh ...and parchment paper
It sounds pretty much like my 'Italian Bread' but the Italian uses just a bit of sugar and isn't baked in a Dutch oven, just on a tray and yes it is tasty.
It is very satisfying to make bread, it helps when it tastes like you think it should.
When I was at Benz's place on my ride I showed him how to use his Kitchen Aid stand mixer to make bread and he was very pleased. He has a bread machine but when he told his harem of widows and divorces that he was making bread without the bread maker he scored lots of points with them! :tu :rofl2:

So Ive been on a curry jag lately and making them up with the help of some homemade curry spice which is nice because I can break some traditional rules. Here's two recent ones. And yes there is no rice present(DB2...NO CARBS OR SUGARS PLEASE) so they've been more like stews.
1)Black bean curry with beef,bacon and collard greens.
