There are always loads of recipes I'd like to try but lose them before I do. This is where I can record recipes I find interesting and keep notes on my experiments with them.

I have a system that I've adopted for working through recipes:

1 - New recipes are saved to the Experimental Mouffette and is labeled : Untested
2 - As I'm working out the changes I'd like to make (if any) it is labeled : Testing
3 - Once I think I've got the correct formula it is labeled : Test 1
4 - IF I am able to reproduce the effect a second time it is labeled : Test 2 - if I am not able to reproduce the effect, it remains Test 1
5 - The same process as step 4 is used to graduate it to Test 3
6 - Once I have been able to reproduce the effect successfully 3 times, it graduates to my main blog, La Mouffette Gourmande

Milk Braised Pork - Testing

Saving this here - it's on LaMouffetteGourmande, but is an older recipe that needs to go through the testing phases to clarify how I've done it. For example, the timing is way, way off.

May 4 2018 - in remaking this, I noticed that the time is way off. I wonder if I need to pay more attention to the internal temperature of the pork? How would it work in a slow cooker?

March 23, 2024 - This cooked so differently. I've reverted the recipe on La Mouffette as a draft. The recipe currently says to cook at medium, but from my experience cooking at medium does not allow for enough of the milk's water to evaporate to get to the golden curds before the loin is cooked. It might have been the size of the tenderloin I used? Anyway, I can't keep this recipe available until I figure out the rather important details of getting to the results I had before. I thought of maybe using the slow cooker with the lid off, which likely would represent a lot more milk to braise the pork, which might be fine because the cheese it creates really is wonderful.
