    I made some wings... dusted with Dizzy Dust and cornstarch, smoked in Traeger 350F about 40 min, dunked in bbq sauce and cornstarch sucked up the sauce like sponge...


    Pale in comparison to swmbo's salmon head curry from scratch... she collected pointers from multiple sources, ingredients include tomato, tamarind and coconut milk...


    ive never done anything with the salmon head other than the cheeks.  do you braise or bake the whole thing down and flake out the meat or fillet it off first

    Funny how Pete’s largely MIA since then.  I wonder if he’s tending to his liver.
    Yes chef! Oh wait, Dr! 

    But then again, you actually have the credentials.😜

    swmbo did all the work. 
    Clean head, split, leave the brain whole and bone in, set aside. Prep the spices and gravy, kind of runny like thin pea soup. Mix head in gravy, bring to boil and simmer. Deal with the bone as we eat B)

    The students are the only ones who tend to address me that way, and even there, “Prof.” is much more common.   I’ve never insisted on it, and really couldn’t care less.

    swmbo followed this recipe more or less. Omitted okra and eggplant (didn’t have), substituted lemongrass with lime leaves. It was not a well planned cook, still quite good.

    Which part was the acknowledgment?  Saying I actually have the credentials, or describing me as pretentious?

    I have been called a master ... baiter... from time to time, it's true.  Internet is serious bidness as we all know.

    Did not mean to derail the thread by highlighting the humour of the title and it's refrence to previous forum shenanigans.  In radio we refer to that as a "callback".

    The cooks in here are amazing and in one easy thread.  Maybe we could post recipies or links with all the cooks?
