Chicharrones (Fried Pork Rinds)

11.28.2009

In my world, there is no finer snack than some chicharrones, a.k.a. fried pork rinds. It’s something I’ve been eating since I was a kid, and Filipinos love it with sukang sili (chili vinegar) and beer. Over the past year, chicharrones have been embraced by the “mainstream” through the efforts of chefs like Ryan Farr [...]

Cook the Book: Momofuku – Roasted Rice Cakes

11.20.2009

Momofuku Week ends with this recipe for Roasted Rice Cakes, but I’m pretty sure I’ll be posting more recipes from the book very soon. Roasted Rice Cakes I had little interest in Korean food until a few years ago. My experience had been limited to the plethora of grilled meats that most people associate with [...]

Cook the Book: Momofuku – Fried Chicken

11.19.2009

Momofuku Week trudges on with a fried chicken recipe that’s my new favorite because it’s super easy and—as David Chang might say—fucking awesome. :) You might assume that this would be a recipe for Korean fried chicken (KFC), especially since Noodle Bar offers a bountiful platter of both Korean and American fried chicken for up [...]

Cook the Book: Momofuku – Pork Belly Buns

11.17.2009

It’s Day 2 of Momofuku Week at Inuyaki and today’s post on Pork Belly Buns is a great way to use the Pork Belly I wrote about yesterday.

Cook the Book: Momofuku – Pork Belly

11.16.2009

Momofuku Week is a new series I made up yesterday after realizing an epic post I was writing about cooking from the Momofuku book was going to be too long. I decided to break up the posts over the next week since I’ve made enough dishes from the book to cover about a week’s worth [...]

Cook the Book: Momofuku Week

11.15.2009

I’ve had Momofuku on my mind and in my stomach the last couple of weeks, so I’m declaring this week Momofuku Week at Inuyaki. It’s kinda like Shark Week, only tastier (unless you’re really into shark meat). After getting my feet wet making the bacon dashi that inspired my Bacon Agedashi Tofu post, I went [...]

Bacon Agedashi Tofu

11.03.2009

David Chang will be the first to admit that both he and his Momofuku restaurants (Noodle Bar, Ssam, Ko) are overhyped and overexposed. The release of the Momofuku cookbook last month isn’t helping matters much since he’s making the rounds promoting the book around the country, and he’s actually doing book signings in the Bay [...]

Cook the Book: Ad Hoc at Home – Asparagus and Steak

11.01.2009

I’ve never been genuinely excited about a new cookbook release, but Ad Hoc at Home marks the first time I’ve had a real personal connection to the recipes in a single cookbook. Inuyaki readers know that I’m a fan and regular diner at Thomas Keller’s casual dining restaurant, and the Ad Hoc Menu Archive is [...]

The Twitter Chocolate Chip Cookie Smackdown 09

10.13.2009

I went on a baking spree last weekend because two of my favorite bloggers, Alice of Savory Sweet Life and Ashley of Not Without Salt, started talking smack on Twitter about who had the best chocolate chip cookies. Since they both live in Seattle, there was no way I was going to be able to [...]
