Yakiniku money shots. Ribeye and pork belly, thinly sliced; sautéed, and dipped in sesame sauce, and mixed with shredded cabbage and rice. #chezfaye #fayemade
A new favorite quarantine meal: at-home yakiniku (“grilled meat” in Japanese)—which is essentially cooking bite-sized meat and vegetables on a grill (or in our case, a pan). #chezfaye #fayemade #quarantinecooking
also I made more focaccia
Chinese-style whole steamed fish is probably my favorite Chinese dish (and the only one my Japanese mom would make regularly). Here, steamed black sea bass is topped with ginger, scallions, and cilantro; and then doused in smoking hot oil, which rele
Alert! 🚨The turkey burgers with sriracha and avocado smashed into the meat mix (to help keep ‘em juicy and add some fat) were pretty darn tasty. Served here with salsa macha (chili de arbol + peanut) mayo, red cabbage slaw, pickled onions, and
A silver lining in this shutdown I’ve been delighted by: the resilience, ingenuity, and resourcefulness of small businesses like @osakanabk—an incredible Japanese fish market in Williamsburg now churning out the best delivery sushi I&rsqu
Jared knows how to cheer a girl up, WITH A BOILED WHOLE LOBSTER FOR BREAKFAST 🥰
Tested two methods to cook this filet mignon: Oven (pic 1+2) won over sous vide (pic 3). Gotta use the “reverse sear” method: (1) Salt the meat and let it rest uncovered in the fridge overnight. (2) Roast in oven at a super low heat&mdash
‘Tis the perfect time to start baking bread: it’s impossible to find at grocery stores, and incredibly annoying and time-consuming to make. This was my first stab at focaccia (from @bonappetitmag recipe), which turned out shockingly good.
Isolation activity #1: Perfect my seared duck breast game. You can buy vacuum-packed duck breasts in any fancy grocery store or at your local farmer’s market, which is actually safer to shop at than the store (support the local farms!). 🦆🦆🦆[
Savory dashi oats, pickled cucumbers/radishes, scallions, roasted peanuts, and chili oil. Also lovely with a jammy egg. #chezfaye #fayemade

Christmas dinner! 🎄Seared duck breast, porcini and pea risotto, red wine + duck fat sauce. Some hot tips 4 u: (1) Tested cooking the duck two ways: fully pan-seared on stove-top, and sous vide. Stove-top won; sous vide yielded perfect meat, but it w
Osso buco—a Milanese specialty of cross-cut veal shanks braised in veggies, wine, and broth—with an orange zest gremolata, over sous vide (!) polenta. I’d never made this with actual veal shanks before and was v nervous about messin
The creamiest—and most annoying—hummus I’ve ever made. The secret: overcooked chickpeas, an ungodly tahini ratio, and an infuriating battle with your blender. #chezfaye #fayemade
I’ll forever be a fan of fresh beef tartare for breakfast. #chezfaye #fayemade
