High Gluttony – Détails, épisodes et analyse

In this episode, Gretchen talks through one of her favorite foods, Duck Confit! and then turns it into duck rillettes.

Due to Gretchen being overwhelmed by making Christmas presents - this episode about Christmas presents is a few days late for the actual day. This spicy oil would be a great gift to yourself any time of year. Pickled fruits are probably a bit more specialized depending on your palate.

Join Gretchen on a journey of a simple laminated dough! So tasty! So Simple- but beware- the rolling takes a while. and maybe let these rest in the fridge overnight? Gretchen liked the results! Highly recommend trying to make these yourself, as they are super delicious. With tips at the end for extra deliciousness from around the internet.

We heard a rumor (from Cook's Illustrated so not really a rumor) that there's a new way to sear steaks. So, we set out to compare the old and new methods and decided to turn this challenge into a classic steakhouse meal. G uses sirloin for her comparison and Becca uses salmon. We round it all out with a baked potato (using G's express method), and a perfect summer salad with a lemon caper vinaigrette. Join us as we learn new tricks, practice old standards, and eat a lot of butter.

We're recreating one of our favorite dishes from last summer. Our first recording never saw the light of day but we couldn't resist making these a second time so we can share them with our Gluttoneers. We are, of course, using a recipe from J. Kenji López-Alt (he's just so good) and trying to recreate a setup from Roam Burger in SF. Join us today to hear how round two turned out (spoiler alert - they're delicious).

We're closing out our Consumption series with a look at tinctures and topicals. Join us as we take a closer look at our endocannabinoid system (also, we learn how to actually pronounce endocannabinoid since we've been saying it wrong this whooooole time!) and continue to compare the process, impact, and differences in how cannabis is consumed.
