Pork Bulgogi  Serves 1 My first attempt to make bulgogi with a limited amount of ingredients. Day 1 Here's what I have: * Marinade 1/4 cup tamari  2 tbsp brown sugar  2 tbsp sesame oil  3 cloves of garlic - pressed  1 tbsp Ginger 1 tsp red pepper flakes  1/4 tsp pepper  6 oz pork loin Frozen for 45 minutes and thinly sliced. The pork was marinated overnight, the recipes I found stated you could do so for an hour or two and be just fine. For this recipe I am missing red pear and red pepper paste. I'll make a second attempt when I can get those and compare.  Day 2 Prep your finishers, I'm adding shitake mushrooms to the meat. Today I'm doing rice and red cabbage as sides. What I have: Marinated pork  2 green onions sliced  1 tbsp sesame seeds  1/4 cup green onions white/green 1 cup red cabbage  1 cup shitake mushrooms  1/4 cup rice When your rice or other sides are nearly done heat...

Roasted chicken leg and vegetables Serves 1 **Preheat oven to 425 degrees Here's what I have: One chicken leg  To season: Paprika  ginger powder  pink sea salt  pepper 1 tsp butter cut in half 1 cup of asparagus  1/2 cup potato  1/4 cup onion  1/8 cup sweetie pepper 1 tsp honey  1/4 tsp Minced garlic  To start I combined all of my spices and season the chicken and then set that to the side. In a cast iron skillet I took half a teaspoon of butter and added the onion and other vegetables. These were cooked for about 5 minutes and then pushed one side of the pan. The remaining butter was then added until melted and the chicken placed on the other side of the pan. The chicken and vegetables were then cooked for 30 minutes. At the 25-minute Mark add the honey garlic mix to the top of the chicken and let brown. At the end I decided to add some homemade fermented shredded beets.

Reviewing: Balsamic Pork with roasted green beans and rosemary potatoes. Serves 2 Here's what you get: Shallot  Yukon Gold potatoes  Green beans  Chicken stock concentrate  Rosemary  Pork tenderloin  Fig Jam  Balsamic vinegar This recipe is largely oven based which is nice if you have a day where you need to multitask. Like the first recipe from this box ingredients were pre-prepped and only one serving was prepared for this recipe. You can find the original recipe on the Hellofresh website. The potatoes:  While all of the potatoes were cut right out of the box I only used about a cup for tonight's dinner. Cooking is fairly easy you just pre-heat your oven,  get them prepared and put them in for the allotted time. I prepped and cooked the potatoes with a bit of shallots until mostly done in a cast iron skillet and removed them to continue on to the next step. *The rest of the prepped potatoes are refrigerated in water to be used ...

Reviewing: Hellofresh Baja Rockfish with yellow rice and salsa fresca. Serves 2 I only prepared a half serving for the salsa in this recipe but cooked all of the rice and Rockfish incase that didn't keep well uncooked. The chili pepper wasn't used because I'm a large baby about spicy stuff.  You can find the full recipe on their website.  Here's what you get: Grape tomatoes  Cilantro  Chili Pepper (not used) Jasmine rice  Sour cream  Cumin  Scallions  Lime  Turmeric  Mushroom stock concentrate Rockfish The instructions, were pretty easy to follow. I did some pre-prep once I received the box so most of the ingredients that needed to be cut were ready to go. If you don't have a lemon zester, a cheese grater that has a spice grater section will work just fine. The rice: The package you receive will be about half a cup uncooked. This was pretty easy to prepare and should be the first thing you make per instructions, that way it ...
