Shrimp Dynamite

 Have you heard of Coubiliac? The trick about it is that it needs to show the 6 distinct layers of the filing. And no air pockets allowed.

We saw that enroute to Dynamite Shrimp recipe. I liked this Air fryer recipe. From this for small shrimp, the time chosen on one side was 6 min and 3 or 4 on the otherside in the Shaq air fryer. 

I used the frozen shrimp from Costco which happens to be from Thailand. Although in frozen shrimp recipe, the chef put it in the airfyer directly after marination, when I put the shrimp from the bed f ice into water, I realise dthat the shell was easy to remove. 

Last time I cooked shrimp, it was in the curry style, so I knew it could take a boil. This time making a faux fried apetizer with airfryer, I had to be careful about it.

For the larger ones, a 10 min time with 400F fries setting with a turn over at the half mark is good. My friends who know if shrimp is cooked or not were happy with the juicy tenderness of the inside and the crispiness on the outside. My kid had fun making the mayo hot sauce combo. With the earlier batch, while I was trying to turn after the 6 min, it would go into preheat again and dried the shrimps too much.

Fun experiment.

Can you guess the physics experiments that  potato chips  are put to?  Cake recovery. siphon cake The picture of  algination  looks like people in a line dancing alternately with the next one's hands and legs.

Banana pudding

I went over the roasted banana pudding recipe from yesterday and found it too consuming (shopping time, dishes, baking time), I finally decided on  caramelized banana pudding . And meringue making is merry. Flour is used in making the custard.  all purpose flour plays the corn starch  role of thickening the custard. I used  Parle G  instead of vanilla wafers.

Slices and Stallions

While there are books that are all about just one ingredient like Flavored oils and vinegars there are others that are about a gamut of things. Everything Pizza cookbook has recipes for all the kinds of pizza that there can be with different crusts, sauces, cheeses, toppings. Smoked Salmon Pizza, Polenta Pizza. Cooking for engineers Tasso Ham . When I read that Tasso is also the name of an Italian poet, I wanted to point to his work too. I looked for it but found it in prehistoric language. It so happens that I am reading poems about horses and recognised Tasso's name beneath his poem translated. Second paragraph has life infused in it with equine motions. Another poem that I like in this collection is 'New Foal' by Ted Hughes.
