#farmingfeast

If you haven’t seen the anime Silver spoon have you really missed a great anime, watch it now! Silver spoon is a comedy, slice of life anime about a boy who starts on a argiculture high school. I think it’s really funny, but the best of all, they eat a lot of deliciuos looking food in the anime.

One of the thing they eat are pizza, and everyone is overly excited about it. The pizza is made with vegetables that they have grown on the high school farm, bacon from the pig there and cheese from... lets not talk about that.

I made one pizza with gouda cheese like they used in the anime and one with mozzarella since Hachiken (the main character) said that you should use mozzarella on pizza. My favourite was the one with mozzarella, but both were really good.

Recipe for 2 pizzas:

25 g fresh yeast (or 4 g dry yeast)

2 1/2 dl water

2 msk olive oil

1/2 tsk salt

6-7 dl wheat flour

1 can crushed tomatoes (400 g)

1 tbsp dried basil

1 tbsp dried oregano

3 tomatoes

a hand full of asparagus

4 slices bacon

400 g mozzarella 

3 dl shredded gouda cheese

Note: I use the measurment dl, 1 dl is 100 ml. (1 cup is 2,5 dl)

Note: I like to use just crushed tomatoes and some dried basil and oregano as a base on my pizzas, but you can use tomatoe sauce if you like that better.

Start with making the dough.

Warm the water to 37 degrees celcius. Mix water and yeast in a big bowl of a stand mixer (if you have one, otherwise just mix it in a big bowl) until the yeast has melted.

Add the salt and oil and start mixing while adding the flour, a little at a time until the dough stops sticking to the bowl. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes by hand and 6 minutes using a stand mixer. The dough should be smoth and elastic when it is done.

Cover with a kitchen towel and let is rise until doubled in size, 1-2 hours depending on room temperature. 

When it has risen, turn it out and a floured work surface. 

Knead the dough a little to get out the air, then roll it out in a circle, about 3 mm thick.

Slice the tomatoes as mozzarella, cut the bacon and asparagus into smaller pieces.

Spread a layer of crushed tomatoes on the pizza and sprinkle on some dried basil and oregano.

Lay on the bacon, tomato, asparagus and lastly the shredded gouda cheese. I added a little mozzarella too, just to make it extra cheesy.

Bake the pizza on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for 5-7 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the crust and cheese is a little bit browned.

Oh wow, another recipe so soon!

My Time At Portia is such a pretty game, you wouldn’t think it was set in a post-apocalyptic world at first glance. Hailed as the successor to Stardew Valley/Harvest Moon, you can get it on Steam, which is why I chose this Steamed recipe for #FarmingFeast month over at @theancientcook with the Fandom Foodies.

(Bad pun, I know)

The in-game recipe calls for 1 pumpkin, 1 rice, and 1 other ingredient. Not meat or lobster meat though, which is a shame, because I had a traditional pumpkin rice recipe calling for dried shrimp.

Anyway, I went with ginger and ‘bladefish’! (Yes, I know they said one ingredient, but anyway you can leave out the fish if you’re vegetarian). This is a pretty simple recipe which can be cooked in one pot or with a rice cooker.

Ingredients (for 2)

1/4 of a kabocha/pumpkin

1 thumb ginger

~1/4 cup “bladefish” a.k.a whitebait/silver anchovies

1-1/4 rice cup (225ml) white rice, uncooked

Dashi (~280ml) or according to the rice cooker

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp mirin

Method

1. Cut the pumpkin into large chunks/cubes.

2, Cut the ginger into slices, or mince it if you want to eat it.

3. Wash the ‘bladefish’.

4. Mix the dashi, soy sauce and mirin in a bowl (and ginger, if you minced it.)

5. Measure out the rice and put it in the rice cooker.

6. Pour the dashi over. (Note: the rice must always be covered with liquid)

7. Put the ‘bladefish’, ginger (if sliced) and pumpkin on top. Set to cook.

8. When done, remove the ginger (if sliced) and mix well with a rice scoop!

Serve and enjoy, restoring 22 stamina in the process. Gift to Emily and Sophie for maximum ‘Like’ points.

My first recipe for #Farmingfeast month is a complete breakfast from Stardew valley. It consists of pancakes, hashbrowns, fried eggs and a glass of milk and after this breakfast, You’ll feel ready to take on the world!

This Is a two In one recipe (I dont count a fried egg as a recipe) since you have to make both pancakes and hashbrowns, although It Is pretty easy to make It so I hope you try making it yourself!

The ingredients to make hashbrowns in stardew valley is oil and potato but I added som onion since I think that gives it a better taste.

Ingredients for hashbrowns: 

3 peeled potatoes

1/4 yellow onion

salt to taste

Oil for frying

Grate the potatoes and onion, mix with salt and let sit for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes heat about 1 cm oil in a frying pan.

When the oil is hot att the mixture and fry on medium high heat in 2-4 minutes on each side or until it is crispy and golden brown on both sides.

Done!

Crispy and golden-brown!

The description of panncakes are, A double stack of fluffy, soft pancakes. So this is a recipe for super fluffy and soft panncakes. The recipe in the game is just an egg and wheat flour but you need some more things irl, atleast some milk.

Ingredients for pancakes:

1 1/2 cups flour

2 tbsp sugar

1 tbsp baking powder

1/2 tsp vanilla powder (or 1 tsp vanilla sugar or vanilla extract)

1/2 tsp salt 

1 1/4 cup milk

1 egg

50 grams butter (plus more for frying)

Mix all the dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl.

Melt the butter in the frying pan you are going to fry the pancakes in. (This gives you butter left in the pan that you can use to fry your first pancakes in)

Add the wet ingedients to the dry and mix carefully, the batter should just be combined, it dosen’t matter if it is lumps. To get soft and fluffy pancakes is it important to not overmix!

Now its time to fry the pancakes.

Heat the pan that you melted the butter in and add about 1/3 cup of batter in the middle of the pan and spread it out.

Fry the pancakes on medium low heat in about 2 minutes on both sides.

Serve with a nob of butter and maple syrup!

To make the fried eggs simply fry two eggs in butter, sunny-side up.

Ingredients for complete breakfast:

1 Hashbrown

1 double stack of pancakes

2 freid eggs (Sunny side up)

1 glass of milk

Put the hashbrown on a large plate.

Add the pancakes on the hashbrown and but the eggs next to the panncakes.
