That sound really good as well. I need to try the banana leaf. I’m not familiar with Hawaiian alaea salt. I use the black lava salt really for its color since it gives the pork that charcoaled/ash look.

https://balancedbodyhealth.wordpress.com/2016/03/03/5-reasons-to-use-hawaiian-red-alaea-salt/

I'm not saying I buy what the article is claiming about the benefits of alaea salt, but it does have a subtle mineral character than kosher salt (my everyday cooking salt) lacks. It won't have as much smoky punch as black lava salt.

Banana leaf definitely imparts a flavor. It's kind of a woody, earthy thing. Hard to describe if you've never had anything steamed and wrapped in leaves, but if you have you'll know what I'm talking about.

I didn't get a chance to watch the video when you first posted it, and almost forgot about this. I'm glad it wasn't what I thought it was going to be.

Then you know what I'm talking about! We tried it once without the banana leaf, it just wasn't as good. We get ours from the grocery store in frozen food section by the Latino foods.

Well I'm in Florida so I'll just head outside and get one off one of the trees! Thanks for the idea of using it with the pork! Gonna do that soon!

Congrats Dave! That dish sounds (tastes?) awesome.

Yeah, it tasted as good as I had hoped, maybe even better.  The veal braises in onion, carrot, celery, tomatoes, and wine for a couple of hours.  Not only does it taste good, the house smells incredible.

  I'm pretty pleased, I made osso buco, with porcini risotto. 

Osso Buco is so good! I had it for the first time this year down at Pinehurst. I need to find a place around my area that sells the cut of pork needed for it. I think I could make this in my Instant Pot.

Traditionally osso buco uses veal shank, but I'm sure you could use pork shank or even lamb shank with excellent results.  Other than the initial sear of the meat, I'm sure you could make this in a slow cooker.

Queens diner makes an Arnold Palmer donut. Orange glaze on a frosted donut looks like?

Article says it's covered in iced tea and lemonade glazes, which makes more sense.

I'm guessing the iced tea glaze is the brown glaze the donut is covered in and the lemonade glaze is the orange stuff drizzled on top. Might just be the color in the picture, maybe it's yellow?

I don't know much about wine, but I got this bundle below - anyone know if these indie wines are good?

Figured, 12 bottles for $80 (got a coupon) is a decent deal, even if it's passable wine.

No clue, but wine is one of those subjective things. You might like something I hate and vice versa. Just write down which ones you liked so you know for next time.

I don't know any of the other ones but the Richard Bruno Cab is top shelf. I would buy a case of that by itself for $15 a bottle.

@billchao Just an update. I made the pork again and used your banana leaf advice....wow. I mean, wow. It was awesome! I still went with my black lava salt but the leaf really made a difference. Thanks for sharing that.

      Day 113: 4/18/24 Stack training progress check after finishing my 6th program, and 4th Full Speed Spectrum Training session, which is recommended for my next program.     Gained 1 mph with driver, 195 g, 95g. Maintained with 280 g , and gained 2 with 145 g. Lost 1 mph on both lead and trail arm. Felt like I lost distance in my last round…

      My Swing (billchao)

      By klineka ·

      I'd agree that 4w seems like the right play here. I'm not a course designer or anything but that hole looks like it could be so much more fun if everyone played from those front 2 tee boxes that are right outside your shot cone and they cut down most of the trees down that left side of the fairway. That would give risk reward to long hitters who want to try and push it up to that left fairway, allow more players to reach that second fairway, and still allowing it to be perfectly playable for someone who only hits driver like 150yds off the tee.   Yeah it looks like 4iron aimed at that inside edge of the right bunker is the play there, especially if you don't expect a 20mph tailwind again. If it is down wind again, 5iron would be just fine too, it'd still get you inside 150yds for your approach.  Keep in mind tee marker locations too, you measured that one from the back so if those tee markers are moved all the way towards the front of that box then 5 iron is probably best just to be sure that right bunker is never in play.

      Best Shot of the Week

      By billchao ·

      Hit my tee shot just into the penalty area and barely found it. Swung hard just in case I hit it. It was slightly downhill with a heavy tailwind. I don't actually hit my 9i 170 yards.
