Working on finding my first REAL mountain bike. I sold the ol' trek 2100 and will now enter the realm of mountain biking and rock hopping. Hopefully this will lead to some great new material for the site which I have lacked contributing to.

Not me. I think it's rad though. I was gonna post the Ben Harper interview, but they cut out the part where he says the good shit and left the part where everyone else talks.

Receipts are FUN!

Receipts are FUN!

Nicholas Gann Saturday, January 28, 2012
Discovering how fun it is to lose accounting files, I am in the process of recompiling all of my business receipts from last and budgeting for the coming year... Lesson learned, never use the backup hard drive for anything, even to test a windows install that "shouldn't create any problems".

Almost done though. Getting a good idea of my ROI.

I was going to rework this and never finished doing that. Wrote a new soundtrack and meant to fix the poor cropping, but here it is.

Can't believe it ended so quickly. It feels like the buildup to this really huge event in a movie, you know the important part that makes everything make sense, only we never got there. I need more man. Can't wait until Jacob Estes is a name on a movie other than the one the other JE made.

A bit squirrely

Nicholas Gann Thursday, December 29, 2011
A friend, Tad, shot some squirrels and one made its way into my hand. This marks my first official squirrel butchering.

Field dressed and ready for the skin to come off.



Sometimes I think jokes should be off the plate when concerning nature and the consumption of it for my own livelihood. But here the squirrel is beside himself.



All of that said, it was a great experience which I have decided I want to perfect and understand on a deeper level. I haven't yet consumed the meat but soaked it for two days in coconut milk to see if I can mellow out its gaminess without using buttermilk, not sure because of its fat content. Anyhow, it is stewing now and will quickly become a really nice dinner I feel. Reports on that later.

Deer Dumplings

Nicholas Gann Thursday, December 29, 2011
The dumpling bread was made from almnds ground into flour and egg washed.

The filling is deer, carrots and cabbage all fried in bacon fat. All of this formed into a dumpling and deep friend in a wok with vegetable oil seasoned with bacon fat grease.

The sauce is made from coconut milk and almonds. A close dairy and gluten free alternative to Thai peanut sauce.

Crackers, Shrimp and Remoulade

Nicholas Gann Thursday, December 29, 2011
Homemade almond flour mixed and rolled into crackers which instead of baked were deep fried.

Shrimp, carrots and onions pan fried in coconut oil. All of it topped with a smoked remoulade.

Fucking delicious.

Pretentious Food Time

Nicholas Gann Wednesday, November 30, 2011
So it's been way too fucking long, and I have a plethora of excuses, all of which make it look like I had nothing to do with not posting. But hey... ITS AMERICA!

Started a new Chef gig in Nashville TN, working with some great dudes and learning alot. These are some of my creations as newby as they may be.

In layer from bottom to top: Cornmeal Cracker, Ribeye, Roasted Red Pepper and Raspberry puree, Bias Cut Scallion, and Sriracha.


Smoked banana slices, Heirloom tomato, chocolate sauce, Roasted corn, and for garnish very cute little carrot ribbons.


Raspberry reduction, Potato balls, Chocolate/Snickers ganache, smoked salmon rosette, micro greens and lemon twists for garnish.


Made this one at home, a dairy free Chocolate sauce.


Cornmeal crackers make a reappearance, the lighter colored spheres are chicken liver mousse, between them is a red onion marmalade garnished with white and yellow shredded cheddar....more.
