Posted: Jan 25, 2012 9:32 am Post subject: Cooking with Rum? |
|
|
| Anyone have any good recipes using rum? I love dark spice rum (Kraken specifically) and want to try including it in my cooking, especially grilling. I've found a couple obvious pork/plantains glaze recipes for it but that's about it (although I haven't really been looking). I trust you guys with awesome grilling stuff. |

I've only done a glaze for chicken and it turned out pretty good. Just found a recipe online. If you're thinking about the baking side of things, rum balls are awesome. _________________ If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular? |

Filets covered in course ground pepper, little bit of oil in the pan, sear about 2-2 1/2 minutes on each side, remove to foil to rest. Reduce heat to medium. Deglaze the pan with the rum (usually cognac) some cream, (can also add some dijon). Stir until the goodness on the bottom of the pan is dissolved and sauce is reduced by half. _________________ If I agreed with you we would both be wrong. |

It's filet au poivre but I've come to enjoy pan sauces hell it's basically the same technique as making gravy and who doesn't like gravy. http://www.reluctantgourmet.com/pan_sauces.htm _________________ If I agreed with you we would both be wrong. |

cooking is about all rum is good for.
Bananas foster. Bananas, rum, cinnamon, a touch of cream and ice cream. _________________

No self respecting man drinks daquiris or mojitos.
If you drink something with mint in it, it better be bourbon and you should be surrounded by hotties in big ugly hats. _________________

| I like to drink rum with a few ice cubes.... It is a sweet change of pace to bourbon. |

Which is why I host a Kentucky Derby party every year. Not so I can have mint with my bourbon, but for the ladies in summer dresses... and big ugly hats. They really seem to enjoy getting to buy things. Plus it might be the only legitimate time of the year for a seersucker. _________________ If I agreed with you we would both be wrong. |

I'm starting to play around with pan sauces, as well. That one sounds really good...going to have to try it. _________________ If love is blind, why is lingerie so popular? |

Carribean Jerk Chicken. Granted this is real spicy and I'm the only one that likes it, but imo it is one of the tastiest and rewarding things I've made:
| Quote: | Jerk Chicken Recipe
Ingredients
1/2 cup malt vinegar (or white vinegar)
2 Tbsp dark rum
2 Scotch bonnet peppers (or habaneros), with seeds, chopped
1 red onion, chopped
4 green onion tops, chopped
1 Tbsp dried thyme or 2 Tbsp fresh thyme leaves, chopped
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
4 teaspoons ground allspice
4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
4 teaspoons ground nutmeg
4 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons molasses
1 (5 or 6 pound) roasting chicken, cut in half, lengthwise
1/2 cup lime juice
Salt and pepper
Safety note. Scotch Bonnet and Habanero chile peppers are very hot and can cause extreme pain if they come in contact with your eyes. We strongly recommend wearing protective gloves while handling the chilies and the jerk paste.
Method
1 Put vinegar, rum, hot peppers, onion, green onion tops, thyme, olive oil, salt, pepper, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and molasses into a blender. Pulse until mostly smooth.
2 Place chicken in a large freezer bag, or in a large roasting pan or baking dish. Pour lime juice over the chicken and coat well. Add the jerk paste to the chicken pieces and coat well. Seal the bag or cover the chicken in the pan with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight.
3 When you are ready to cook the chicken, remove chicken from the marinade bag or pan. Put the remaining marinade into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Set aside to use as a basting sauce for the chicken. If you want you can reserve a little of the marinade (once boiled for 10 minutes since it has been in contact with raw chicken) to serve with the chicken or to mix with some ketchup and a dash of soy sauce for a serving sauce.
4a Grilling Method
Preheat grill to medium high. Sprinkle chicken halves with salt and pepper. Place chicken halves, skin side down on the grill grates. Cover. Cook for approximately one hour, keeping the internal grill temperature between 350°F and 400°F, turning the chickens occasionally and basting with marinade, until the chicken halves are cooked through. The chicken is done when the juices run clear (not pink) when a knife tip is inserted into both the chicken breast and thigh, about 165-170°F for the breast and 180-185°F for the thigh. Transfer chicken to platter. Tent loosely with foil to keep warm and let stand 15 minutes.

Soak a container of cut-up pineapple in 1 cup of dark rum, some cinnamon, and brown sugar over night. Shake it up every few hours to make sure all pieces have had time to soak in the delicious goodness.
Grill it for 2min or so on each side.
You're welcome. |
