And, just in case the Angel of Death DOES stop for a visit, it's "Shrooms, Dude"
Briskuits!:
While this particular batch went over about as well as the Hindenburg going over New Jersey, it was conceptually beautiful if not physically. It was an experiment delving into an area of cooking that I have lots of practical experience with, but barely any creative experience because I'm not completely on my game when it comes to the physics and chemistry of baking.
* non-Jewish lentils
Ingredients:
1/4 cup lentils
1/4 cup barley
4oz ground turkey
2tbs wheat gluten
1 egg white
1/4 cup wheat germ
1/4tsp baking powder
1/4 cup wheat germ
1/4tsp baking powder
season to taste
Muffin pan
Cook barley and lentils until tender.
Pop barley and lentiles* in a food processor and pummel into a thick cream and season to taste.
Fold in wheat gluten, wheat germ and egg whites.
Season turkey to taste and form into small balls
Mix baking powder into what should now be a doughy paste and let rest for 20 minutes.
Grease the muffin pan and press dough bits into cups, making sure to cover the sides as well as the bottom, leaving a deep pit behind.
Press meat balls into pits
Cover with remaining dough and bake @ 425F for 20 minutes.
Remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes. Remove from pan and eat cautiously. You won't be impressed. The meat is tasty, but the "biscuit" is kind of wrong. In many ways. I'm on the right track, though. I'll continue the experiments until I have reached perfection. PERFECTION!
Shrooms, Dude:
5-6 large white mushrooms
1/2 cup egg whites
2tbs breadcrumbs (I was out of chick pea flour)
basil, oregano, onion powder, touch of salt
jalapeno
red pepper
turmeric
Smash mushrooms, add breadcrumbs, add egg and seasons, turmeric jalapeno and red pepper and mix well. Spoon out onto a greased baking sheet and bake @ 425F for 20 minutes.
End result is a trippy and colorful tasty, spicy and crispy treat!
