What did you cook or eat today (July 2023)?

[The Late Night Gourmet]

I’m still in Omaha with my mom, and she wants me to cook. When it comes to food, Nebraska is known for two things: beef and corn. Of course, I had to combine them. And, then, add more things to them.

First, I dressed the steak and potato wedges with a mix of oil, savory, and roasted garlic:

Then, I put the potatoes in the oven. I'd normally wait until the potatoes were halfway done before starting the steaks, but these were absolute monsters, so I put it on a lower heat for a longer time:

Look at how beautiful they are. Can you believe that these sirloin gems only cost $7.99/pound? Nebraska loves their steak.

Next, I sautéed mushrooms.

My mom wanted peppers and onions, so I sautéed some of those, too. And, of course, the corn was boiling while all this was going on. The potatoes were a little bit before the steaks, which took a LONG time to cook through, even to medium rare.

Still, it was worth the wait.

This looks tasty. How spicy was it?

Just right in this case, I used szechuan peppers and it made it feel like something was glowing in your mouth without burning.

Kung Pao Brussels Sprouts. I made this with my mom today. I’m going to have to post the recipe, but I’m making an adjustment: she can’t take spicy things, so I will have to update that part of the recipe. Still tasty, however.

Very inventive. But, I thought Nebraskan's were known for their spicy foods.

Winn Dixie had New York strip steaks as 1 of their loss leader sales for the weekend at $6 a pound. We got a pretty decent sized one that was almost 2 inches thick. So, I used a third of it for carpaccio with arugula, ParmR, a Dijon aioli and capers. The other 2 pieces were individually wrapped and frozen for beef tataki or more carpaccio.

Pasta salad with bocconcini, zucchini, roasted red bell, and very thinly sliced red onion. Dressing was a creamy vinaigrette/pesto thingy. New dressing to us but pretty good.
