Danny and the boys woke up early the other morning to go fishing, and brought these back for lunch:

That's 2 catfish and 2 perch. My first time to have perch actually. My son caught the first catfish after less than a minute (it's the one in the middle). <3
Omelette: mozerella, turkey, jalapeños, cayenne peppers, diced yellow onions
Bacon: maple glaze

Vegetarian taquitos! They're made with beans, sauteed onions and bell peppers, cumin and chili powder, and Morning Star fake chicken. Oh and cheese... lots of cheese. Plus sour cream and pico de gallo:

Cookiesss! Made with almond paste and I also made the almond paste from scratch because I never tried before. Chocolate ganache in the middle. These were ridiculously good:

I think I have a pic of them all done, I'll see if I can find it..
edit: Here it is. First we dip them in caramel, then chocolate so we can sell them in cellophane bags without them sticking. Then I drizzled whith chocolate on them, and added sprinkles. It's all about the sprinkles :P

I already grossed everyone out in irc with this pic, but I thought I'd post it in here too :P
This is aspic, or gelée: (It takes all day to make, but it's a component for a classic french recipe that I'm working on, Chicken Chaud-Froid. It's a 3-4 days project, and I'll post a pic of that too when it's done. Following the pic of aspic I made are a couple pictures that depict the various applications for aspic. I didn't make any of those, just the cubed aspic in the first picture.)

This beautiful vegetable terrine uses aspic to hold everything together, and make it shiny. It also acts as a preservative:

Aspic can also be used to decorate a plate, so that the food which is served on top won't disturb the design:

Finally, and this is what I'm using it for, aspic can set certain sauces for a more meticulous presentation, as in a chaud-froid sauce:

So I gotta be the first to triple post in here?
