Kedgeree Fish Cake Eggs Benny

March 27, 2022 2 Comments

I think brunch is the most difficult meal to pull off. I know that may sound surprising but I think any meal centered around eggs becomes a race against time. Cooking is a lot like comedy, it all comes down to timing. And this is especially true when it comes to brunch. Poached eggs, fried eggs, bacon, and pancakes. All of these classic brunch items have different cook times and are difficult to make in bulk on a four-burner stove. Perhaps this is why we have to wait in those ponderously long lines for brunch at our favorite spot. Pulling off a delicious brunch at home can be a delicate operation but it is certainly not impossible. So let me show you how to make Kedgeree Fish Cake Eggs Benny at home while maintaining your sanity.

Irish Soda Bread – Overthinking Classics

It’s time for another installment of Overthinking Classics. If you’re new here, and I think many of you are, Overthinking Classics is an ongoing video series where I develop a temporary obsession with a classic dish. I tend to do a lot of non-traditional dishes on this blog. But trust me when I say, most of my food cravings are as pedestrian as the next person’s. So Overthinking Classics provides me with an outlet to make whatever classic dish I happen to be craving that month. Oh, and I get to generally nerd out about each and every facet of that dish, which, I’m sad to say, qualifies as a very good time for me. And this month’s subject is Irish Soda Bread. So let’s dive in!

It’s been a while since we’ve brunched on this blog. I still regret that I didn’t manage to work a holiday brunch into my content calendar this year, but I suppose that’s what next year is for. But enough about regret, let’s talk about today’s Huevos Rancheros Brunch Burger, a real looker if I do say so myself. What you’re looking at here is a refried bean and wild rice burger patty perched on top of a bun slathered with a simmered tomato salsa and blue corn tortilla chips topped with a sunny-side-up egg. There are some avocado and jalapeño slices in there as well for good measure. Sound good? Good! Let’s dive right in.

Latke Platter with Gin-Cured Salmon and Spreads

I really struggled to arrive at a title for this particular recipe. Mostly because this isn’t really a single recipe. It’s actually five, which admittedly is a little over-the-top. But I am nothing if I am not that, so really this Latke Platter is very on-brand for me. This platter features a lot more than just latkes. There is Beet Horseradish Hummus, Dill Labneh, Gin-Cured Salmon, and Vanilla Bean Applesauce. Yes, there was absolutely no way in any universe that I was going to pack all of that into a clean title. But hey, grazing boards are by nature difficult to cleanly explain or sum up. The format is all about variety after all. Clearly, there’s a lot to cover here, so let’s get to it.
