News Junkie & Vagabond

i am too lazy  to cook today and am not nearly as fabulous as kthread while channeling julia, anyway :)

seaweedbutter:

PBS is asking for your Julia stories (submit: http://tr.im/v9WA)

and I made eggs for Julia (I monologue at the beginning because I adore her)

recipe:

begin by making mayonnaise by processing one egg for ten seconds, then slowly drizzling in 1 cup of vegetable oil while the machine is running. add 1 teaspoon lemon juice and season to taste; it will keep for a week chilled.

dice mushrooms (I use black trumpet here) and cook with 1 teaspoon of oil on med-high heat until they release their juices—about 5 minutes.

remove from pan, turn heat to medium and add two eggs, whisked (reserve one eggshell), and a tablespoon of heavy cream; gently fold eggs until softly scrambled—2-3 minutes.

spoon eggs back into eggshell and then around it on the plate; serve with mayonnaise and with potatoes, if you like (I sautéed baby potatoes and amaranth leaves with garlic).

Bon Appétit!
