title: 'Butter-based biscuit and cookies'
author: 'Arnaud Poittevin'
date: 2022-06-29
tags: ['snack', 'side', 'dough']
---
This recipe is some basic recommandations for making butter based biscuits (aka shortbread, sablés, cookies ...). The complexity comes from the presence of butter mostly.
- ⏲️ Prep time: 10 min
- ⏲️ Wait time: 1h
- 🍳 Cook time: 15 min
## Ingredients
- Butter
- Flour
- White sugar
- Eggs (optionnal)
## Directions
### Prepare the dough
1. Mix the sugar and eggs until it gets white
2. Add the "Pommade" butter and mix thoroughly until the preparation is airy. "pommade" is french for ointment, this is a specific state of butter that is nor liquid nor solid.
3. Gradually add the flour
### Let it sit
6. The dough should not be sticky and made into a ball wrapped in cellophane/film
7. Put the dough ball 1h in the fridge (15 minutes in the freezer if you are in a hurry **less consistent**). The dough needs to be cold when putting in the oven to prevent butter from flowing out and separating from the dough
### Cooking the dough
8. Heat your oven to 200 °C with the cooking tray
9. Quickly shape the dough so it remains cold. Most important is the thickness, the thicker it is the longer it has to cook and the more chances the butter flows out.
10. Transfer the baking paper with the uncooked shortbreads on the hot cooking tray
11. Let cook for 12 to 15 minutes to your liking, the brown colour means the sugar has caramelized and it is crunchy
12. Work is not done, when out of the oven, the shortbreads will fill soft and crumbly, they need 1 or 2 minutes of cooling before being solid enough to handle
13. Whenever possible transfer the shortbreads on a grid or "oven shelf" so air flow can circulate **Necessary for the texture of the shortbread** otherwise moisture will remain inside and will be less crunchy

Credits to creator of recipe, Ethan Chlebowski, [(original recipe)](https://www.ethanchlebowski.com/cooking-techniques-recipes/kettle-cooked-chips).
I decided to post it on here to be more available.
- ⏲️ Prep time: 3 min
- 🍳 Cook time: 11 min
- 🍽️ Servings: 1~2, about 1 plate full
## Ingredients
- 1 Russet Potato, or other potato with high starch and low moisture. The amount of starch effects the crunchiness of the chip.
- Peanut Oil for frying (at least 1 to 2 inches in the pan)
- Salt or seasoning of your choice
## Directions
1. Set a wok or pot over medium-low heat and add the peanut oil about 1 to 2 inches up the pot. Set a thermometer to monitor the temperature to reach 315 F (157 C).
2. Wash the exterior of the potato. Using a mandolin set on 2 mm (~1/16th inch), a very sharp knife or a potato peeler cut the potatoes into thin chip slices.
3. Add the potatoes to the hot oil and cook for 9 to 11 minutes while stirring fairly constantly. <br>
Note: The oil should drop to roughly 250 F in the first few minutes before stabilizing and increasing back to 315 F. This may be slightly different depending on the size of the pot and the amount of oil you use.
4. Once golden browned and completely crisp with no bubbling, remove the chips with a slotted spoon and add to a paper towel over a wire rack to absorb excess oil. Seasoning immediately with salt and any seasoning of your choice.
5. Don't throw away your oil! Let it cool. Place a paper towel in a metal strainer and strain it into a glass or plastic container for next time.
## Seasoning suggestion
- Ethan suggests making a special seasoning from jalapeños, onions, garlic, salt and (optional) some MSG. This optional step takes a LOT longer than the rest of the recipe.
1. Dry out the vegetables after cutting and preparing them, sliced quite thin so that they dry out, in the oven at the lowest temperature that it will go to.
2. Leave for about 6 hours to dry in the oven.
3. Once dry and brittle, break the vegetables up into little pieces.
4. Powder them in a mortar and pestle until completely dry and fine.
5. Pour powder into a separate bowl.
6. Add a spoonfull of salt and (optional) a small amount of MSG to the mortar and pestle. Grind to the same consistency as the vegetables.
7. Add the salt-msg mix to the vegetable powder along with about half a tablespoon of sugar
8. Sprinkle over the chips and mix well.
Enjoy!

A basic puff pastry recipe that can replace any recipe that calls for puff pastry.
- ⏲️ Prep time: ~1.5 hrs
- 🍳 Cook time: 25 min
- 🍽️ Servings: 24
## Ingredients
- 5 cups bread flour
- 2 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 2 cups water
- 2 cups unsalted butter, softened
## Directions
1. Before starting on the dough, place the butter between two pieces of plastic wrap. Pound into a flat disc using a rolling pin or other heavy object. Refrigerate until firm, roughly 20 minutes.
2. Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl or in the bowl of a stand mixer with a dough hook. Gradually stir in water until the dough holds together enough to clean the sides of the bowl. The dough should not be sticky, but it should not be dry. Do not put all the water in as you may not need all of it. Let the dough sit for at least 10 minutes.
3. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough into a large rectangle about 1/2 inch thick. Place the butter in the center and fold the two ends over it so that it is fully encased in dough. Roll out the dough again, taking care to not let the butter break through the surface. Once the dough is about 1/2 inch thick again fold into thirds. The butter should be warm now, place into fridge for 30 minutes.
4. Repeat rolling and folding two more times, then refrigerate again until firm.
5. Repeat two or more times until the dough was rolled roughly 6 times, then wrap and refrigerate. The dough can now be used in recipes calling for puff pastry. Roll out thin, about 1/4 inch, and bake at 400 degrees F for best results.

Shrimp fettuccine alfredo is one of the best tasting and low effort dishes.
The recipe i give below yields an alfredo sauce that is a bit on the thicker side.
If you want a thinner sauce, adding a touch or two more milk will thin out the sauce.
This is a great meal for 3-4 people or you can eat one serving and freeze the rest for 2-3 more dinners.

title: Torta Frita Criolla (Argentinian frybread)
tags: ['argentinian', 'fry', 'bread']
date: 2022-06-23
author: "bernardo-slongo"
---
A "merienda" (afternoon meal) that is intertwined with the history of colonization on the River Plate region. Never have it by yourself, instead with friends or family, and a cup/gourd of Mate.
- ⏲️ Prep time: 1h 10min or 2h 10min, (depending on how long you leave it to rest.)
- 🍳Cook time: 10 minutes.
- 🍽️ Servings : 10.
## Ingredients
- 1.1 pound (1/2 kilo) of all-purpose flour.
- 4 tablespoons of lard or butter.
- 1/2 cup of water mixed with a teaspoon of salt.
- Oil or grease of choice for frying. (Modern Argentines use refined tallow or sunflower seed oil, but for the real gaucho way, unrefined lard or tallow is the right choice)
- Sugar, cinnamon, or herbs and spices of choice (Optional)
## Directions
1. Add the flour on a bowl, and the grease in ambient temperature in the middle.
2. Mix flour and grease with your fingertips, while slowly adding the salt water, until you end up with a dough ball.
3. Knead it energically, until the dough forms bubbles on its surface.
4. Let it rest for 1 or 2 hours, and then form little balls, the size you'd do for a chocolate chip cookie, smash them to a disc shape, then poke a small hole in the middle.
5. Fry it on abundant grease until golden brown, remove it with a perforated spoon, then put it on a bowl with paper towels to absorb excess grease.
6. Add garnishes, but it is not essential, due to how rich and filling the dish is.
