Six Degrees of Eggs and Bacon by Wild Bear, Ty Ødin, King of Spain, clown face

June 9th, 2010 5:56 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Take your favorite recipe for a food usually served at dinner, and change it one step or ingredient at a time until it qualifies as a breakfast dish. Cook and serve the intervening steps.



Ty Odin here with the first step of this Praxis! I decided this needs to be a team effort, and so I would make the first step, change it, and send it off to a team mate who would make the second step, change it, and send it on its way. This would continue until it was breakfast!

I made spaghetti.


*Ingredients:
tomato sauce
whole grain spaghetti

basil

garlic

*Instructions:
1. Bring large amounts of water to a boil
2. Place spaghetti in water.
3. While spaghetti is boiling put sauce in a medium saucepan and simmer. Chop, crush, and mince garlic and add roughly 1/4 a clove.
4. Put basil in sauce to taste.
5. Check on the pot to make sure wild bear dosen't use her demon magic to make it boil over in approximately 6 seconds.

6. Once spaghetti is limp drain it and place it back in the large pot, then add the sauce, stir, and serve.

It was delicious. Wild bear and I ate it for dinner after a long day of tasking.

This is what I sent to King of Spain
*Ingredients:
tomato sauce
bread
basil
garlic

I left the instructions blank.

Step two, guys. Tomato soup and toast. Admittedly, I cheated a bit because in my heart of hearts I truly believe that a soup is nothing without butter and loving seasoning. Leaving rosemary and thyme out of the soup broke my heart a tad. The photos down at the bottom tell all.

To clownface, I sent the cryptic message:

tomato sauce
bread
basil
eggs

to see what he might make of it.

I received King's mail with a slight smirk. Seeing the raw and unadulterated list of raw and unadulterated ingredients got me thinking. What wonderful, terribly things could i make with these?

main_390123.jpg

Ty Odin lent me his kitchen and we made Egg ramekins with basil and tomato sauce. They were alllllmost a breakfast, but fell just short and ended up as more of a brunch.

So for the last bit of this task, i hand over these ingredients to Wild Bear.

Cheese
Bread(toasted or not toasted)
Basil
Eggs

______________________________________________________________________

Odin here to wrap this task up.
I stayed the night at Wildbear's den and we made the most delicious fries for breakfast. Remembering this task we continued to create an omlette monster out of the above ingredients, the last step in this meals transition from dinner to breakfast.

main_2a91297.jpg
It began innocently enough. As wildbear posed for a picture of cracking the first egg into the pan she suddenly realized that the cap was on the cooking spray and, in a fit of panic and rage, struck the can against the counter, sending the top flying into the far reaches of the kitchen. I knew, as I heard the plastic land on the linoleum that what we would soon create would be a monstrosity.

main_891302.jpg
The Basil coated the eggs nicely, and the little bits of cheese and breadcrumbs were all well and good, but upon folding the omlette we saw the horrible underside. Not wanting her presentation to be ruined by blackened eggs, wild bear tossed a few slices of cheese on top of the blackened mess.

main_991303.jpg
All better.

Wild bear finished the egg-tastrophy with some red food coloring and presented it on a paper plate that said "I Hate Cooking". Knowing the sins that we had committed against this food, we thought it best to spare it the trouble of being digested and send it straight to the trash; one step closer to freedom.

So, with a tear, we ended the epic struggle to turn dinner into breakfast. Let it be.
