Grilled salmon head

The New School's second annual New Urban Grilling Society Vegetable and Meating was held this past friday. Among many dishes (braised spareribs, bacon/ chorizo/ apple chicken breasts, fillet mignon shish kabobs) by far the most esthetically interesting dish was the grilled salmon cheeks... Kick ass.

Pinto Lamb Masala

Radiating out from center. Gallo pinto, ground lamb, and homemade masala (tomato paste, lentils, and curry powders). Thats what you get when three people bring miscellany to a potluck

shrimp shumai with roasted garlic

Shumai came in a bag of 50 for $9 from Sunshine Mart. Garlic found in fridge... Need I say more.

Lamb burger stuffed with feta and topped with hot pickles

To celebrate the subletting of Stanton street (and the hopeful prospects of a road trip to New Orleans) lamb burgers were made with a fantastic and very inexpensive local feta. The lamb's mild gaminess was excited by the stringent salty feta. Recommendations were also made to infuse the meat with cardamon; however, these were disregarded. No ketchup was needed.

Morning after eggs, sausages, & onions

Morning after eggs have to be cooked to perfection, as these four definitely are. Contrasted against Sausages, bought on clearance at a Dollar Tree in Flemmington, New Jersey last September, brought a syncretic undertone to an already classic dish. Onions browned in olive oil.

Garlic Butter Shells

Attempted return to, (highfalutin ization of), a childhood favorite. Baked Garlic whole and then cut in two; could have baked the garlic for another few minutes.
