Re: Base Camp.......The team that isn't

Glad to see all you Base Campers here at 'The Survivors'.
Sorry for the heat, but it's typical summer in the South.

Where We’re At
Place: The Survivors
Duration: July 20 – July 27
Badge:

It was nice to hear from grumpygrampy in this thread and from Captain RRC_Survivor in The Survivors’ team thread.
It’s amazing there is food for all of us when we see what goes on in stefada’s kitchen

Good Morning Base Campers!
Business
Not so much to report from Georgia, USA
The entire crew is hanging in there, and no new crunchers joined us.
What has changed, though, is the graph.


Chit-chat
Juggling ’spring cleaning’ of two kitchen cabinets
– have to take a bit at a time hoping to finish before next spring comes up rolling eyes
with other chores, Provence travel books, reading club book
- we’re reading ’Brave New World’ at an out of town ’Books in English’
– my local one is expected to go belly up

and all kinds of exercises and a walk.
But, but, but, tomorrow comes a reward.
My French teacher friend suggested she and I went to Louisiana for our monthly gettogether.
A museum of modern art with a beautiful location above the sound separating Sweden and Denmark.
And the name?
The founder was married twice, and both wives were called Louise … smile

Trek

I love this graph ! About 40'000 hours per day. We can watch what I call the "Base Camp touch".

Can we will do more ?

good luck


Cooking

Aujourd'hui : Bisque de homard.

Attention si vous suivez la recette en lien, le piment oiseau, c'est plus fort que le piment de Cayenne.
Je ne répéterais jamais assez ce conseil : Dans le doute, préparez une tartine de pain beurre. Croquer dedans fera partir le piquant.
Ne surtout pas boire d'eau, du lait éventuellement, si jamais le pain beurre ne suffit pas.
Normalement, c'est le goût du homard qui doit ressortir, mais nous n'avons pas tous la même sensibilité au piment.

En vin, un Chablis blanc de 2011/2012/2013. Ceux sont de très bonnes années, et les bouteilles ont des prix abordables.
N'hésitez pas à prendre du 2011 ou du 2013, même si 2012 est un millésime mieux classé. A moins d'être un expert, je ne suis pas sûr qu'on fasse la différence (notre porte-monnaie par contre) .

Prévoir qu'avec la gourmandise, chaque personne va manger 3 à 4 bols. Et qu'il faut du pain pour saucer (quand la gourmandise nous prend) .


recette / recipe . Translator

Today: Lobster Bisque.

Be careful if you follow the recipe link, the bird pepper is stronger than the Cayenne pepper.
I can not repeat this advice enough: When in doubt, prepare a slice of butter bread. Chewing in will make the spice go away.
Do not drink water, eventually milk, if ever the bread is not enough.
Normally, it's the taste of lobster that must come out, but we do not all have the same sensitivity to chilli.

In wine, a white Chablis of 2011/2012/2013. Those are very good years, and the bottles have affordable prices.
Do not hesitate to take in 2011 or 2013, even if 2012 is a better classified vintage. Unless we arre experts, I'm not sure we make the difference (our wallet by cons) .

Predict that with greed, each person will eat 3 to 4 bowls. And that it takes bread to suck (when greed takes us) .

Bon appétit !





Cooker have a question :
(with nibbling for inspiration)



Do you like chilli pepper ? Speak of "piment oiseau" / bird chili pepper ? give me an idea. A recipe from Reunion Island, but we have to like spices.

Re: Base Camp.......The team that isn't

Ahhhh ... lobster bisque tongue
As for me, I like spices when they support the dish - not strangle it.
And yes, I like chili pepper.
I never heard of the piment oiseau, but I had a small pepper plant on my balcony several years ago.
It had a few tiny fruits I bit cautiously in one and my mouth was in flames shock beat up
It must have scored high on the Scoville scale

Re: Base Camp.......The team that isn't

Aujourd'hui : Rougail saucisses réunionnais.

Mais avant de passer à table, voyageons un peu avec les odeurs. Comme dit ma maman, avec la cuisine, nous pouvons voyager sans bouger.

Le rougail saucisses est un classique de la cuisine de l'Ile de la Réunion, ça change de ce que nous mangeons en métropole.
Si vous connaissez un Réunionnais, et qu'il vous invite à manger, vous pouvez être sûr d'y goûter ! Chacun ayant sa recette familiale, qui est bien évidemment meilleure que les autres.


No scale, but a big zoom.

Today: rougail Reunion sausages.

But before going to dinner, let's travel a little with the smells. As my mom says, with cooking, we can travel without moving.

Rougail sausages is a classic of the cuisine of the Reunion Island, it changes what we eat in France.
If you know a Reunionese, and he invites you to eat, you can be sure to taste it! Everyone has his family recipe, which is obviously better than the others.


Une image très connue qui illustre bien la diversité et la richesse de l'Ile de la Réunion.
(nous la trouvons sur des T-shirt, cartes postales, etc)



A well-known image that illustrates the diversity and richness of the island of Reunion.
(we find it on T-shirts, postcards, etc.)


Cooking

Ayant eu la chance que ce soit des Réunionnais qui me fassent découvrir cette recette, je dirais qu'il faut trois choses pour un bon rougail saucisses :

- Des saucisses artisanales. C'est l'ingrédient principal, il faut qu'il soit de qualité.

- Du gingembre frais ! Il faut que nous le sentions bien, mais, il faut faire attention de bien doser, qu'un peu trop, et nous ne sentons plus que ça.

- Du piment oiseau. Un Réunionnais n'utiliserait pas un autre piment, c'est un peu une fierté de l'île.
Je ne maîtrise pas l'échelle de Scoville, mais c'est plus fort que du piment de Cayenne. Le seul piment que j'ai goûté qui était plus fort, c'était au Chili.
J'ai oublié le nom, mais ma belle-sœur m'a dit que c'était le plus fort du monde, et je veux bien la croire.

Le plus souvent, le rougail est accompagné de riz au curcuma. Qui donne une jolie couleur, et permet de faire tomber un peu le piquant pour ceux qui veulent.
Et il y a quelques piments oiseau dans un bol, pour ceux qui au contraire en veulent plus.

En vin, un Faugères rouge de 2012 ou 2013, les deux années se valent.


Recette / recipe . Translator

Having been lucky that it is Reunionese who make me discover this recipe, I would say that it takes three things for a good rougail sausages:

- homemade sausages. This is the main ingredient, it must be quality.

- Fresh ginger! We must feel good, but, we must be careful to dose well, a little too much, and we do not feel that much.

- Chilli bird. A Reunionese would not use another pepper, it's a bit of a pride of the island.
I do not master the scale of Scoville, but it's stronger than cayenne pepper. The only pepper I tasted that was stronger was Chile.
I forgot the name, but my sister-in-law told me it was the strongest in the world, and I want to believe it.

Most often, rougail is accompanied by turmeric rice. Which gives a nice color, and can make a little spice for those who want.
And there are some bird peppers in a bowl, for those who on the contrary want more.

In wine, a red Faugères of 2012 or 2013, the two years are equal.


If you not sure, take a slice of bread with butter. It's for you. If you have to use it, you will thanks me.



Bon appétit !

Re: Base Camp.......The team that isn't

I'm guessing some of our campers must've stockpiled their returns for the trek as everyday after I arrived the stats have steadily fallen. It's either that or we're losing campers. confused

Damon Hill,

Hope we will do more next days.

good luck

Aujourd'hui : Pêche Melba.

Petit clin d’œil à la Géorgie, comme j'ai appris que cet Etat est réputé pour ses pêches.

Ce dessert a été inventé par Auguste Escoffier (un grand cuisinier Français) en 1894, pour la chanteuse Nellie Melba, après l'avoir entendue.
A noter que dans la recette originale, il n'y a pas de chantilly, mais la gourmandise a fait que presque tout le monde en met maintenant.

Today: peaches Melba.

A little nod to Georgia, as I learned that this state is famous for growing peaches.

This dessert was invented by Auguste Escoffier (a great French cook) in 1894, for the singer Nellie Melba, after having heard her.
Note that in the original recipe, there is no whipped cream, but the greed has made almost everyone puts it now.


Bon appétit !

Re: Base Camp.......The team that isn't

@Damon Hill
I believe the stats falling off are my doing. I'm trying to keep the AC from running constantly, so I shut down some computers. I also did stockpile an extra day, so it skewed the stats a bit.

No lost campers (that I know of). Just one trying to survive the heat.☀️🍹
