next weekend i'll be looking for an army of delicate purple noses poking up

Okay, this is without a doubt, the gayest thing I have ever read on AtBC.

if carlson had shared that it would have been 'using my nose to find an army of purple throbbers to delicately stick in'.  if the stuck in were stuck out, he'd look like a porcupine, etc.

you know what just fits in a chicken?

heheh

Dude, your not even making sense. Put down the pipe, go grab yourself a Mountain Dew, and chill out.

if carlson had as many purple throbbers sticking out of him as had been... well... anyway he would look like a purple throbbing porcupine.

It is cold out, there is basketball on the TV, so it is time to do some cooking.

If you get the chance, try some Brewdog beer. I spent a happy few hours in Edinburgh's Blue Blazer pub last night (which has a good claim to being one of the finest boozers on the planet), and among my explorations I sampled (repeatedly) Paradox - a 10 percent dark beer matured in old whisky casks. Spectacular. It was on tap, but they only sold it in half pint measures.

I'm thinkin' that just about anything would go good with your Paradox from the Blue Blazer ... but my daughter preferred hanging out at the Rush Bar when she went there last Fall.

I made a weird salad*:
A bag of greens ( baby romaine, tango, radicchio)
Pouch of tuna
Soba boiled w/ olive oil, oregano, garlic
Drained can of diced tomatoes
Sliced fresh mushrooms
Soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, touch of EVOO

It's very good!

*those are the only salad ingredients I had in the house

I tend toward 'stream of consciousness' cooking.

Morels are not up yet around here. I've seen none in my ambles through the woods, and the turkey hunters that I know have not seen any either.

We've had plenty of rain recently, but no warm nights. If the forecasts hold I will start looking about the middle of this next week, and I'll report back. If we get a couple of 50-degree nights, I suspect that it will be a great morel season this year!

First batch of the season, along with some found Yellow-shafted Flicker feathers for scale. Note that most of these are the gray morels (Morchella deliciosa, with only a few yellow morels (M. esculenta. That means it is early in the season, even though it is mid-April. Rain and mild temps are predicted for the weekend, so there should be a lot more where these came from!

no the feathers are what you can sell for five bucks a piece in churrkee.  or alternatively you might trade them for a left handed cigarette and a sliced baloney white bread mayonnaise homemade mater sammich up at the grocery.

the fish are something else altogether.

We're about in the peak period for morels here. If we get the predicted rain tonight, there should be a good crop tomorrow as well!

Here's the haul from this morning's expedition.

Mostly we dehydrate them and use them in various recipes throughout the year. Here's what we're cooking tonight; a favorite recipe from Food and Wine mag.
Quote
   Rich, creamy Port and mushroom sauce makes these chicken breasts special. A little more work than a weekday meal, but worth it. Great served with plain rice or simply flavored risotto (lemon or parmesan) to soak up the flavors.

   6 servings;1 hour 25 minutes 1 hr prep

   3/4     cup chicken broth
   1     ounce dried wild mushrooms, thoroughly rinsed under running water,and drained (such as cepes, morels, etc, all one kind or a mix)
   1/2     lb fresh cultivated mushrooms, wiped clean with damp paper towel (button)
   5     tablespoons unsalted butter
   1/4     cup finely-chopped shallots (or 3 green onions, finely-chopped, plus 1 T minced garlic)
       salt and pepper, to taste
   1/3     cup medium port wine
   1/3     cup heavy cream
   6     boneless skinless chicken breast halves

      1. In a small saucepan, bring broth to a boil; pour over the wild mushrooms in a small bowl and let stand for about 2 hours.
      2. Thinly slice cleaned mushroom caps, discarding stems.
      3. In a skillet over medium to medium-to-low heat, melt butter and gently saute shallots or onion/garlic mixture for about 5 minutes (do not brown).
      4. Drain liquid from wild mushrooms and reserve.
      5. Finely chop the wild mushrooms and add them and the fresh mushrooms to the skillet with the shallots (or onion/garlic mixture) and saute over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for about 7- 10 minutes.
      6. Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
      7. Add the reserved mushroom liquid, Port, and cream to the skillet and simmer for about 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
      8. Pour mushroom mixture into a shallow baking dish and arrange chicken breast halves in a single layer on top of the mushrooms.
      9. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper and cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
     10. Bake in the middle level of the oven for about 25- 30 minutes, until chicken is done.

And tomorrow night I may try this recipe, which I just found this year. Looks good!
