今天下班一時興起,看到冰箱裡有兩盒豬排,突然腦袋裡浮出了日式炸豬排的畫面@﹍@
雖然身在美國,在這邊要吃炸豬排其實是一件很方便的事。(就像在台灣出門轉角7-11買御飯糰一樣方便吧!)拿起電話打給佐治(Saji)或Cafe Swish,二十分鐘豬排就會送來了,好像也不需要大費周章動手親自下廚。不過兩盒豬排在手,在加上記憶中的和風炸豬排一直跟我呼喚讓我口水直流,想想Rachel Ray的名言:「A great meal is only 30 minutes away!」我還是自己動手吧!
材料:
豬肉片(Pork chop - butterfly cut) x 4
麵包粉
麵粉/pancake粉
蛋 x 2
醬油
鹽
糖
沙拉油
作法:
1. 先用刀背或著鎚肉的鎚子把豬肉拍軟拍扁。肉片因為是butterfly cut,會有一條「脊」,請對準多拍幾下,拍軟拍扁才會好炸+好吃。
2. 醃肉:把醬油、糖、鹽、少量沙拉油跟肉片放在碗中混合,放到冰箱冰二十分鐘(或更久,看你有多少時間)。
3. 打蛋。加入一些麵粉,會有一些麵粉塊,所以要花點功夫打均勻。
4. 拿一個淺盤子倒入麵包粉,如果沒有麵包粉,可以用超硬的美國麵包拿去用果汁機打碎,我就是這樣做的。
5. 肉醃好以後,燒一鍋熱油吧。
6. 夾一塊肉片沾滿蛋汁,裹上麵包粉,放到鍋裡炸,口水不要滴到油鍋裡喔:-)
7. 過給分鐘將肉片翻面,炸到金黃。
8. 重複6-7 直到肉片用完。假如油不夠請記得再添加。
9. 起鍋。
註:
1. 材料比例份量請隨意。
2. 豬排可以配自己喜歡的醬,例如泰式酸甜辣醬。
3. 可以配高麗菜絲跟檸檬。

Mussels 食譜
某一天肚子餓心血來潮做的菜,從開始食物下鍋到上菜滿快的,大概20分鐘吧,也不太花功夫。這到菜很好吃,只是還沒有取名字(暫定為Mussel大燴吧??)。不管了,我只知道再不寫下來就會忘記作法了。
原料:
1. 一包去殼的mussel,我是用韓國產的冷凍mussel「註1」。
2. 青蔥,切成數段。
3. 玉米粉,調勾芡用。
4. Brown sugar(黑糖)。
5. 鹽少許。
作法:
1. 準備材料之前為了省時間,先用frying pan燒淺淺一鍋水「註2」。
2. 把材料準備好,將mussel丟入滾水內煮。
3. 等到mussel差不多解凍八成時(請用眼睛、筷子、跟鼻子判斷),將mussel撈出放在盤子或碗中(A),另外找一個大碗(B)把煮mussel的水倒入留著。
4. 把frying pan稍稍沖洗一下,擦乾淨水分後熱鍋加入少許沙拉油,油熱後加入蔥爆香,倒入(A)中的mussel煎/炒。
5. 加入黑糖跟少許鹽,攪拌一下mussel確定有均勻上色。
6. 把(B)碗中的水(mussel湯)倒回炒鍋內,煮沸調入勾芡即可上桌食用。
註:
1. 包裝上都是韓文,根據我用韓文手寫輸入法,加上Google跟日文Yahoo翻譯機(韓->日->中)的結果,好像是說對女性很補!?
2. 用別的鍋子也可以,不過水不可以太多,燒水的目的雖然是要讓冷凍的mussel解凍,但是mussel解凍時流出來的美味湯汁一定要留著等會用。假如用太多水到時候就變成海鮮湯了。

One if by land, two if by sea
紐約餐廳週終於開始了,利用這個機會,我們終於有機會到這家傳說中紐約最浪漫的餐廳朝聖「註1」。
坦白說,這家餐廳的外表真是一點都不起眼,畢竟它是之前十八世紀的carriage house改裝的「註2」,位在Barrow Street的入口,很容易經過而完全沒有注意到。不過裡面的裝潢,真是古色古香,壁畫跟火爐讓人有暫時離開了吵雜髒亂紐約的錯覺。
A picture is worth a thousand words. 我想還是用照片讓大家感受這家餐廳的氣氛吧。
古典的壁爐跟裝潢。
進門後就是吧台。
這就是一樓華麗的dining room「註3」。
現場的浪漫鋼琴演奏。
今晚的菜色,還不錯吃「註4」。
註:
1. 因為浪漫,所以這家餐廳也是紐約無數情侶求婚、定情處。
2. carriage house就是以前以馬車為主要交通工具時,用來放馬車的地方。看大門入口的照片不難想像吧。
3. 當然,餐廳週時每家餐廳都大爆滿,One if by land, two if by sea也不例外。它餐廳內分為兩層,樓下是照片中有美麗燭光跟吊燈的dining room,樓上(還是算做balcony?)則是「稍稍」擁擠,兩桌之間間隔不到40公分的小房間。樓上一樣有壁畫跟燭光伴你共進晚餐,但是假如你沒有坐在靠一樓dining room的balcony窗戶,很有可能你是完全聽不到美妙的現場鋼琴伴奏。所以訂位時請盡量訂一樓的位置。
4. 這家餐廳印象中視沒有a la carte(一道一道菜單點)的服務,完全是套餐(prix fixe)的形式消費。一套套餐最低$75大洋,這就是為甚麼我們要趁餐廳週趕去利用$35大洋的折扣價湊熱鬧了。
餐廳地點:
One if by land, two if by sea.

Beef noodle soup - 清燉牛肉湯麵
不久之前心血來潮做了清燉牛肉湯麵,照了照片但是一直沒有寫blog紀錄。其實以前這道菜也蠻常做的,但是今天我想說萬一以後哪天做菜的點子用盡,臨時想不出要做什麼菜,我可以翻翻自己的blog,抽籤決定要做什麼給自己吃。
準備材料:
義大利天使麵線(angel hair)
牛肉(chuck steak)
蕃茄
洋蔥
糖
鹽
黑胡椒(可有可無)
馬鈴薯(可有可無)
作法:
1. 為了省時間,燒兩鍋水(A,B)。
2. 等水滾的時候,牛肉切塊,切洋蔥、蕃茄,準備鹽跟糖。
3. 於A 鍋川燙牛肉,川燙後移到另一鍋(B)繼續煮。
4. 將蕃茄、洋蔥、馬鈴薯等等加入B 鍋,煮到滿意為止(請用眼睛、鼻子跟筷子判斷)。
5. 在4.進行時,把A 鍋洗好,燒水準備煮麵。
6. 麵煮好之後,放入B 鍋的牛肉、菜跟湯,上菜!
註:
1. Angel hair是一種超級細義大利麵,煮久一點,會變得很Q,口感很像麵線。我不曉得紐約哪邊有賣麵線或者是好吃的(中式)麵條,我也不太想花時間去找,巷口(其實是好幾個blocks away)超市賣的Angel hair是我心目中最合適做湯麵的No. 1。
2. Beef chuck在超市都是一片一片牛排的包裝,他的口感比起超市賣的beef for stew不知道好幾千萬倍,會帶有一些牛筋,也不會吃起來乾乾硬硬的。
3. 我做菜對於食材的量相當隨性,大家做菜高興加多少牛肉、幾顆蕃茄或洋蔥自己衡量,高興就好。

New York Winter Restaurant Week 2008

今年紐約的冬季餐廳週終於開始了。從Jan 21到Feb 1,星期一到五,紐約許多知名餐廳將會提出「相對」便宜的套餐,讓你可以以較低的價錢,享受到平日每人動輒七八十塊美金的西餐廳用餐的樂趣。
所謂比較便宜的價錢是什麼呢?這個價錢每年都會隨著物價波動而改變,根據餐廳週網站的說明,今年的公定價錢為:午餐$24.07,晚餐$35.00。午晚餐都是三道菜的prix-fixe套餐,不過因為晚餐價格稍貴,晚餐菜單的內容可能會包括比較不同的選擇「註」。
有興趣的朋友可以先到各大美食評論網站(雜誌)參考一下各家餐廳的評價。我通常會去紐約時報的Dining & Wine版,或者是New York Magazine的Restaurant版,利用他們的搜尋功能找到行家們對各家餐廳的評價,以及各餐廳註明的菜色。舉例來說,紐約市有一家知名的日式餐廳Nobu,假如用New York Magazine來搜尋,我們可以發現這個餐廳主廚Nobu Matsuhisa的招牌菜是那幾道:
his miso-marinated black cod, rock shrimp with spicy mayonnaise, and tuna tartare with a bed of crushed avocado all have stood the test of time
這個網站也會順便跟你說這家餐廳的價位如何,有哪幾道菜是非點不可的,以及從1到10一般消費者的評價。例如:
Recommended Dishes
Kumamoto oysters with Maui onion salsa, $10; black cod with miso, $19; Omakase dinner, starts at $80 per person
當然餐廳週菜單不一定會剛好cover推薦的菜餚,不過總是可以幫忙抓個方向,知道哪些菜可能比較特別。如過要更仔細的做功課,當然還是要去把餐廳的menu調出來,用Google好好研究大家的評價囉!
想要抓住這個罕見的機會到紐約高級餐廳看看嗎?請到opentable.com訂位。
註:當然小費是不包括在內的。請自行加入計算。

自己做yogurt
剛剛跟朋友聊天,他提到他最近的新嗜好:自己做yogurt。
方法聽起來很簡單,只需要牛奶跟一罐超市買的yogurt。跟我們實驗室養酵母菌(或其他菌類)一樣,只要保有一些yogurt菌,就可以不斷的繼續製造新鮮的yogurt。新鮮的yogurt早上加蜂蜜吃應該是一大享受。
這邊是我查到的詳細作法,理想中有一個yogurt maker應該會比叫好控制溫度:
1. Sterilize the milk. Even though your milk has been pasteurized, it will still contain bacteria. Pour a quart of milk into a pot and use a metal spoon. Heat the milk until it is almost boiling. You'll see small bubbles form around the edges and steam beginning to rise. Checking the temperature is a good idea. It should be around 180-185F (82-85C). A candy thermometer comes in handy. Remember to heat slowly and stir often to prevent scorching. A double boiler may also be used.
2. Cool the milk to grow the yogurt. Allow the milk to cool at room temperature or place it in the refrigerator. Stir frequently in order to accurately check the temperature. It should reach 112F (45C). Don't proceed until the milk is below 120F(49C), and don't allow it to go below 90F (32C). 105-110 (41-43) is optimal.
3. Add nonfat dry milk, if desired. If you wish, adding about 1/4cup to 1/2 cup nonfat dry milk at this time will increase the nutritional content of the yogurt. The yogurt will also thicken more easily.
4. Add the starter. All yogurt needs "good" bacteria. The easiest way to do this is to add some existing yogurt. The first time you make your own yogurt, use store-bought plain yogurt. Be certain it has "active cultures" on the label. For each quart of your cooled milk, you'll need 2 tablespoons of yogurt. Let the starter yogurt sit at room temperature while you are waiting for the milk to cool. This will prevent it from being too cold when you add it in. Alternatively, specialty stores may carry freeze-dried bacteria cultures, which are more reliable as starters.
5. Allow the yogurt bacteria to incubate. Pour your milk into clean individual containers. Cover each one tightly with a lid or plastic wrap. Keep the yogurt warm to encourage bacteria growth (between 105F and 122F (41C and 49C) is ideal). Your oven is a great place, just make sure the thermometer is accurate. You'll need to use your candy thermometer and perhaps turn your oven on and then off again periodically or keep the oven light on to warm. Most ovens don't have set temperatures this low. To check the oven temperature, place your thermometer into a bowl of water inside the oven. Wait until the yogurt is thick, about the consistency of pudding. (A simple solution for good results is a large thermos).
* Important: Keep the yogurt still during this process. Jiggling won't ruin it, but it makes it take a lot longer. It can take anywhere from 8-14 hours to incubate. The longer it incubates, the thicker and more tangy the final yogurt will be.
6. Refrigerate the yogurt. Place the yogurt in your fridge for several hours before serving. It will keep for 1-2 weeks. If you are going to use some of it as starter, use it within 5-7 days, so that the bacteria still have growing power. Whey, a thin yellow liquid, will form on the top. You can pour it off or stir it in before eating your yogurt.
7. Add optional flavorings. Experiment until you develop a flavor that your taste buds fancy.
Tips:
* Next time, you can use some from this batch to start the next batch.
* Try whole milk, 2%, 1%, skim, pasteurized, homogenized, organic, raw, diluted evaporated, dry milk powder, cow, goat, soybean, and more!
* Other methods for keeping the yogurt warm are available and numerous. Just use your thermometer and best judgment. Options include hot water in a sink, stove burner, crock-pot, warming tray, heating pad, a sunny window, in your car on a sunny day, etc.
* Placing your yogurt into the freezer to cool it prior to moving it to the refrigerator will result in a smoother consistency.
* If you use skim (or nonfat) milk, add some nonfat dry milk powder for a better, thicker consistency.
* A trick to maintain a consistent low temperature in the oven is to leave the oven light on after preheating it to the desired temperature. The heat generated by the light will usually be sufficient to maintain the temperature.
* Pie filling in a can makes great flavoring.
* Jams, maple syrups, and ice-cream fudges are good choices of flavorings too!

美國的柚子
很多人以為美國沒有柚子,中秋的時候假如不去Chinatown買就沒有辦法享受吃柚子賞月的樂趣。
其實呢,這是不正確的。在美國超市是買得到柚子的,只是他的形狀跟顏色都和台灣的柚子差了十萬八千里。更不要說看到柚子的英文名字(pomelo/ pummelo/ pommelo)你可以反射想到:「哇!有賣柚子ㄝ!」
這邊我買過的柚子都長得跟保齡球一樣大,標準的圓球狀。賣相絕對比Chinatown那些醜不啦嘰又扁的進口柚子漂亮。口感也不輸記憶中的台灣柚子。
Anyway, 去看看家附近超市有沒有賣pomelo吧!
烤栗子

先把栗子用水洗一下,再用毛巾擦乾淨,然後用小水果刀往栗子圓圓滾滾的那邊刀尖刺一下,然後小刀向旁邊轉一轉,這樣子栗子殼就開口了。放入烤箱烤到熟之後拿出。怎麼樣是烤好呢?聞到栗子香味就表示好了。
不過這次買的栗子好像不太有味道ㄝ。在Chinatown買的,長得大顆,烤的時候香氣逼人,可是吃得時候就是沒那麼甜。下次還是去Fairway買好了。

Moon Festival
Time to have some moon cakes.
住在紐約,雖然擁有四十分鐘內到達Chinatown的便利,但是要找盒好吃的月餅還真是不容易。好不容易今年在朋友的推薦下,興沖沖地跑到Flushing(法拉盛),買了一盒好吃的手工月餅。
酥脆的外皮
裡面是可口的心型蛋黃
有一點咖哩味的
棗泥月餅就是這一家糕餅店,老闆不太裡人,態度有點跩,可是東西真的很好吃!店名是一美芳,Main Street地鐵站出來轉個彎就到了。

Ramen noodles
山頭火拉麵---不是火頭山喔~ 跟古中文一樣,日文也是會從右邊寫到左邊的。
住紐約住好幾年了,一直想去這一家有名的日式商場---Mitsuwa。
聽說這商場內,可以找到所有你夢想中的亞洲食物跟商品,拉麵、豬排、紅豆餅等等應有盡有。
身為貪吃鬼,到Mitsuwa當然要找一家好吃又有的餐廳吃囉。
Mitsuwa最有名的,大概就是這家山頭火拉麵了。我們在一個週末,從紐約曼哈頓四十二街的port authority,搭乘shuttle bus前往Mitsuwa「註」。
山頭火拉麵的菜單很基本,到這邊就是吃拉麵囉,你只要選想要的湯頭(鹽、正油、味增),要加辣與否(辛?),以及你想要多少肉(e.g.特選的話你會有一整盤的肉,一般的話就只有兩三片)。另外還有幾組套餐,可以讓你加小菜跟滷蛋。
反正我自己會滷滷蛋,就只點了拉麵。在經過漫長的等待(大約三十分鐘~沒錯,先去逛逛超市或商場吧!),終於等到了。照片中的正是這碗得之不易的正油拉麵。
正油就是醬油,跟所有我在日本吃的拉麵一樣,這家的拉麵湯頭也會稍鹹。不過他的麵跟叉燒肉都是一級棒,薄薄的肉有入口即化的感覺。

原來bagel是麵包馬鐙啊~
老闆消失了一個月, 原來在維也納過逍遙的日子. 跟他一塊去的R 回來group meeting沒報告什麼正經事, 到放了幾張會場附近維也納廣場的照片.
大家七嘴八舌的討論維也納哪邊好玩, 突然老闆用他近視加老花的雙眼, 瞪著廣場照片, 問了今天meeting第一個問題: 「廣場中間那是什麼雕像?」
R的視力好的很, 照片看得一清二楚, 但是不敢得罪老闆, 小聲說道:「I think it's a horse and a general.」將軍加駿馬勾起了老闆的回憶, 老闆兩眼一亮, 篤定的說:「那一定是Prince Eugene! 他當初帶領軍隊擊退了土耳其人!」
這位Prince Eugene是誰啊???土耳其跟維也納有什麼關係啊???我歷史從來沒有好好念, 臉上頓時冒出三條小丸子麵線. 隔壁的兩位猶太人好像也不知道這位偉大的公子, 露出一臉茫然的表情.
原來古早以前, 土耳其還是偉大的顎圖曼帝國(Ottoman Empire), 勢力達歐亞非三大洲. 統治者曾經兩度攻打維也納, 第一次在1529年, 因為寒冬天氣惡劣不得不放棄. 第二次進攻發生在1683年(即有名的Battle of Vienna), 鄂圖曼派出14萬大軍圍城, 但是因為奧地利的友邦聯軍插手, 反遭到大敗, 也因此終止了鄂圖曼帝國在歐洲的擴張.
但是... 是Prince Eugene率領大軍的嗎?
波蘭裔的P 看不下去了, 開始嗆聲:「不是吧!!是波蘭王Sobieski帶領大軍的!是他拯救了維也納!」
OK, 當初波蘭、德國、奧地利三國一共派了七萬大軍來解救被圍的維也納, 波蘭王帶領大軍也不是什麼稀奇的事。
他繼續說道:「就是因為這場戰役,才有我們今天吃的bagel。」
啥?這是什麼推論啊?是因為為了打仗方便, 發明這種中間有一個洞, 可以用一根繩子串起十個, 方便拎著行軍殺敵的麵包嗎?
P 看大家下巴紛紛掉下, 趕快解釋, 因為維也納居民對波蘭王很崇拜與感激, 戰爭結束後軍隊勝利遊街時, 百姓爭先恐後要摸英勇波蘭王的馬鐙. 麵包師傅趁機開發出馬鐙形狀的麵包, 造成大暢銷, 流傳下來就變成今天我們吃的bagel了.
看來有這麼好吃又方便的bagel, 真的是又謝謝英勇的波蘭王囉...
註一:請不要問我甜甜圈是不是波蘭王發明的, 謝謝!

Easy lunch
I'm totally sick of the food at the med center. I seriously doubt how people there can survive eating the same food over and over again. Famiglia pizzas, Wendy's, the Korean deli, Mike's bagel, it was basically my menu Monday through Friday during the past two years, with one random day spent at Subway, some Mexican deli, or Carrot Top. I'm not saying the food is lousy. But it's definitely time for a change.
For a long while, I managed to have lunch at home before coming in to the office. In the morning I would read papers and use VNC to work on my lab computer. But I've really got a lot of work to do lately and have to come in earlier in the morning. Sandwiches are now handy to me. See some basic sandwich recipes below:
Grilled Ham Sandwiches
INGREDIENTS:
* 1 red onion, sliced 1/4" thick
* 1 yellow onion, sliced 1/4" thick
* 1/2 lb. ham slices
* 2 Tbsp. honey
* 1 Tbsp. Dijon mustard
* 1/2 tsp. dried thyme leaves
* 3 Tbsp. butter, softened
* 8 slices whole wheat bread
* 1/4 lb. Cheddar cheese, sliced
PREPARATION:
Preheat dual contact grill. Combine honey, Djon mustard, and thyme leaves. Brush on onion slices. Grill onion slices for 3-5 minutes until tender and marked with grill marks. Remove from grill and set aside.
Grill ham slices for 3-4 minutes until heated through. Spread butter on one side of each piece of bread. Make sandwiches with the grilled onions, ham, and cheese, assembling sandwiches with buttered side out. Grill each sandwich for 3-6 minutes until hot and cheese is melted. 4 sandwiches
Italian Grilled Cheese Sandwiches
INGREDIENTS:
* 8 slices whole wheat bread
* 1/4 cup prepared pesto
* 8 thin slices mozzarella cheese
* 1 tomato, thinly sliced
* 8 thin slices Provolone cheese
* 2 eggs, beaten
* 1/3 cup milk
* 1/8 tsp. white pepper
* 1 Tbsp. flour
* 3 Tbsp. cornmeal
* 2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
PREPARATION:
Preheat dual contact grill, waffle maker, or panini maker. Spread one side of each slice of bread with pesto. Make sandwiches, enclosing a thin slice of tomato between two slices of cheese, one mozzarella and one provolone.
On shallow plate, beat eggs with milk and pepper.
On another shallow plate, combine flour, cornmeal, and Parmesan cheese. Dip sandwiches into egg mixture, then dip into flour mixture.
Cook for 4 minutes on grill until crisp and golden.

Blueberry pie
從Ann Arbor採了好多好多的藍莓, 本來想說在BY家做果醬, 做個十瓶帶回來, 可是又怕坐飛機時果醬被沒收, 一猶豫之下果醬又沒有做了. 回到紐約打開一大袋的藍莓, 想說這麼多藍莓一定夠做果醬, 結果沒想到我一邊查做法, 一邊吃著藍莓, 等到食譜查到時, 藍莓已經沒有剩那麼多了...
查果醬做法的時候看到了這個藍莓派的食譜, 雖然這次的藍莓幾乎都跑到肚子裡, 沒有辦法做派了, 我還是在這邊把食譜貼上來, 下次有機會再做一個新鮮的藍莓派...
Filling ingredients:
3 pints of blueberries, cleaned and stems removed
2 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup all-purpose flour (for thickening)
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 Tbsp unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Egg wash ingredients:
1 egg
1 Tbsp milk
1 Prepare crust. If you have made dough, on a lightly floured work surface, roll out half of the dough to 1/8-inch-thick circle, about 13 inches in diameter. Drape dough over a 9-inch pie pan and put into the refrigerator to chill for about 30 minutes. If you have purchased frozen pre-rolled circles, allow them to defrost and place one of the circles on and in the pie pan.
2 Whisk egg and milk together to make an egg wash and set aside.
3 Combine blueberries, flour, cinnamon, lemon juice, and sugar and place in the chilled bottom crust of the pie pan. Dot the top with butter pieces. Roll out the remaining dough to the same size and thickness. Brush the rim of the crust with the egg wash, place the other piece of dough on top, trim to 1/2 inch over the edge of the pan, and crimp the edges with a fork or your fingers. Transfer the pie to the refrigerator to chill until firm, about 30 minutes. Heat oven to 425°F.
4 Remove from refrigerator. Brush the top with egg wash. Score the pie on the top with two perpendicular cuts (so steam can escape while cooking). Bake for 20 minutes at 425°. Reduce heat to 350°F and bake for 30 to 40 minutes more or until juices are bubbling. Let cool before serving.
