The Hungry Cupboard: September 2010
http://hungrycupboard.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
A nerd and her cookin'. Thursday, September 02, 2010. The view from the kitchen. Summer in a hotel pan. Engraved Gray Kunz spoons and Togiharu slicer- gifts from my rad boyfriend. For my recent 30th birthday. My mise en place. Herbs ready to go in the spring lamb set. That's a big-ass steak. My cross-hatch is pretty good these days. The ubiquitous wedding gallette a la Jay-bar. A busy Sunday night. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What it is, y'all. Portland, OR, United States.

The Hungry Cupboard: June 2013

A nerd and her cookin'. Sunday, June 23, 2013. It's a whole thing, you guys. It's a whole thing. It's 3AM, I'm on the ass-end of four 15-hour days in a row, and I can't say in all honesty I ever imagined I would be where I am today. Marinated olives in some yummy shit. Preserved lemons. Jack's recipe. I want to get there, but it still feels like a long way off. Am I not giving myself enough credit? Am I too hard on myself? Not many, my friends, not many at all. I constantly find myself flabbergasted ...

The Hungry Cupboard: January 2015

A nerd and her cookin'. Wednesday, January 14, 2015. Things no one told me about being a chef, part one. There are a bunch of things that I've discovered about being a chef that no one told me about being a chef before I actually became a chef. Here's one of them:. You are basically making it up as you go. Fish en papillote. A moderately successful dish. Cured salmon and smoked oyster board. I really liked this one. I have yet to have someone tell me "No," and the most frequent answer is "All the time!

A nerd and her cookin'. Tuesday, June 01, 2010. In the meantime I will leave you with the most ridiculous 25 seconds of your life. Leave it to a cat lady to post something so ludicrous on a food blog:. Thanks to my dear friend Tonya. For sharing this one with me!

A nerd and her cookin'. Wednesday, February 13, 2013. Staging Like A Pro. I've been itching to write lately, and I found the following post in my drafts folder while sifting around in my blog archives. I'm warming up to write about what's been going on in my present life (Kitchen managing! I'm gonna do it anyway. How to conduct yourself during a stage. As told from the point of view of an observant rookie with decent intuition for reading people). Put together a decent resume. Keep your mouth shut. Frien...

A nerd and her cookin'. Wednesday, March 23, 2011. To You, Restaurant Worker. It's well into 2011, and I can't help but notice that I let the yearly summary for 2010 fall by the wayside. It seems cheap to try now (o hai late March! Nice to see you! So instead please let me take a minute here to give thanks. And for everyone else that I've failed to call out specifically (and I know there are a lot of you), thank you thank you thank you. You know who you are. Links to this post.

A nerd and her cookin'. Wednesday, February 10, 2010. My relationship with burger cookery got off to a rocky start. Until suddenly it was. Like anything in the kitchen, I just got to it. Fake it 'til ya make it, as they say. I started to get a feel for temping burgers, and fortunately my first day as burger lady wasn't insanely busy so I didn't go down in flames. I did, however, go home that night and cry myself to sleep. Don't tell anyone, okay? I had a lot of burger anger. Links to this post.

A nerd and her cookin'. Monday, March 29, 2010. Pushing through, with apologies in advance for rambling. Has it really been a month and a half since I last wrote? I feel pretty sad about that. Dear neglected blog and whoever is out there reading this, you deserve better. And can I just say I feel really fortunate to be working at a place that's staying so busy? What is "stuff" anyway? Okay This incoherent rambling probably means my ass is ready for bed. I promise I'll make more sense next time.

The Hungry Cupboard: October 2010
http://hungrycupboard.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
A nerd and her cookin'. Friday, October 15, 2010. The new dorade set: eggplant caponata and coriander tomato sauce. The fish in this photo was only the second one that I did with this set, which is why the saucing looks kinda wack. Still love this plate though. I'm determined to work all the stations, however, and the one station I haven't worked yet is saute. Saute is a killer station at my work: it's fresh pasta and. Of culinary school, and a little expounding on The Fear. Should be interesting. Patty ...
