Joe’s Test Kitchen

Well, it is time for another highly anticipated episode of Joe’s Test Kitchen. This is where I take some crazy food concoction, cook it up, and see how it tastes.

If you are looking for some special treat for Easter that will suprise everyone check this out. Honestly I am shocked how well this turned out. It isn’t just something that is OK and edible. It actually tastes very, very good and is something I will be trying again. Watch and see how it goes:

Yep, that is right.  The Cadbury Scotch Egg. Who would have thought a wonderful Cadbury egg covered in sausage, breaded, and deep fried would be so awesome? I have eaten fried oreos, twinkies, candy bars, pie, cheesecake, and nearly everything else you can put into a deep fryer and I have to say this is right up near the top of the list.

And it is very simple to make.  Just take a Cadbury creme egg, wrap it in breakfast sausage (if you are in Spokane go to Sonnenberg’s and get their breakfast sausage. It is awesome), dip it in a beaten egg and breadcrumbs and deep fry for 3-4 minutes at 350. This would be an awesome treat to try out this Sunday for a nice Easter dessert or breakfast or something.  Just try it and you will be plesantly suprised at how good it tastes.

Thanks for the idea Melissa.  Maybe you will get to try one this Sunday.

Joe’s Test Kitchen, Vol 1

in Joe's Test Kitchen

After much anticipation, longing, and requests from my legions of fans I did it.  It is time for Joe’s Test Kitchen.  I am gonna be taking an idea I come up with and cooking it up and see how it comes out.  So take a look below, carve out a few minutes where you can view and study the video away from any distractions and watch the magic happen:

After having some more time to think about the outcome I know this can be improved upon. It tasted good but it wasn’t great.  I think the bacon ratio needs to be higher, somehow figure out how to get the syrup inside, and maybe a couple more modifications.  I guess I would give it a 6.5 out of 10 at the moment but I think I can get it up to 8 or 8.5 with some tweaks.  Leave a comment and let me know what you think.
