Wednesday June 3
We scored a couple of pounds of V-burger (venison) at JoDee and David's, and decided to make an actual chili version of the dreaded Cincinnati chili. So first we made a batch of red chili flavored pasta (1 1/2 cups flour, 2 eggs, 1 TBSP oil, 1 TBSP or so of chili (not chili powder) and a shot of fine salt: all whirled up in the RobotCoupe. While that was resting, we cooked up the V-burger with garlic and onions, lots more chili, and the dangerously ripest of the tomatoes. Ran the pasta through the rollers and slicers to make a nice fettuccine and topped it with the sauce. Thought about beans and bright orange cheese to make it a five way.* Then we thought again.
*Recently the nearby corner two painted wooden plaques went up under the 4-Way stop sign. One depicted a steaming plate of Cincinnati chili, the other a group of naked men involved in improbably athletic sexual activities. Alas, we didn't go back to get the camera, for the installation lasted only a day even in our pinko-homo-commie neighborhood. At least the chili's still there.
