Dreamwidth and LJ

Just to clarify - I'm mamadeb at both places. I'm crossposting pretty consistently, but LJ is probably going to stay my default (that is, if I forget to crosspost, that's where I'll be), and since I use Semagic to crosspost, which so far doesn't give me the ability to automatically redirect comments to one service or the other, there will be comments in both places.

I'm reading both the lj flist and dw readiing page (which is currently MUCH smaller.)

Knives and Fire Internship Day 12

Day 12

I began by chopping onions. Three gallons of onions. Chef saw me stretching out my right hand, which had woken me up the night before, and suggested Ben Gay. I bought some today, and it helped. I was much faster, though, because I stopped being super careful and just *chopped.* Also, I used a more comfortable knife with a smaller handle.

Then I washed and chopped a case of scallions. Afterwards, I made the cheese part of the mac and cheese sets - grating and mixing the cheese, adding it to the containers, then finishing them with flour and butter.

And then I made the salmon reubens. This is multigrain bread, mustard on both sides (just a smear, or, as I taught A, a "shmear"), gruyere on both sides, then a layer of smoked salmon and a bit of saurkraut (the saurkraut cooked with caraway and mustard seeds.) These are covered and wrapped in plastic, and dated. They'll be placed in a panini machine at service.

And that was that.
