Cooking instruction summary:

Procedures 1 For the black chile mayonnaise: If using a gas stove, turn one of the burners on high. Hold one of the chipotle chiles with a pair of tongs right over the flame and char it on all sides. It will puff up slightly, and then turn black. Set the chile aside, and repeat with the second chipotle chile, and the ancho chile. If you don't have gas stove, set a cast-iron skillet over high heat, and char the chiles on the skillet. When the chiles are cool to the touch, discard the stems and remove the seeds from the ancho. 2 Toss the chiles into a food processor and finely grind. Transfer to a bowl and pour in the 1 cup of oil. Stir well. Without cleaning the food processor, add in the egg yolks, garlic, lime juice, sugar, salt, and two tablespoons of water. Process until combined. With the motor running, slowly drizzle in the chile oil in a steady stream. The mayonnaise should be thick and creamy. 3 For the steak sandwich: Season the steak with salt and pepper on both sides. Pour the teaspoon of oil into a cast-iron skillet set over high heat. When just beginning to smoke, add the steak. Cook until well-browned on the bottom, about five minutes, and then flip. Cook until well-browned on that side, about another five minutes. Check its temperature with a meat thermometer; it should register about 140 degrees. If so, set aside and let rest for five minutes. (If it is below 140 degrees, cook for another minute or two on each side.) Then thinly slice the meat against the grain. 4 Scoop out some of the middle of each piece of ciabatta. Spread one tablespoon of the black chile mayonnaise on each top half. Divide the steak, cucumber, ginger, and cilantro between the four bottom halves. Drizzle each with lime juice, and season with salt. Place the top halves on each, mayonnaise side down. Serve.

Food Trivia

Death row inmates in Texas don't get to pick their last meal.

Food Joke

Jack goes to the doctor and says "Doc I'm having trouble getting my penis erect, can you help me?" After a complete examination the doctor tells Jack, "Well the problem is that the muscles around the base of your penis are damaged. There's really nothing I can do for you unless you're willing to try an experimental treatment." Jack asks sadly, "And that would be?" "Well," the Doctor explains, "What we would do is take the muscles from the trunk of a baby elephant and implant them in your penis." Jack thinks about it silently then says, "Well the thought of going through life without ever having sex again is too much, let's go for it." Jack went under the knife, and, after a period of recovery and healing, returned to the Doc for his blessing. Following the examination, the Doc pronounced Jack "healed and ready for action". Eager to use his experimentally enhanced equipment, Jack planned a romantic evening for his girlfriend and took her to one of the nicest restaurants in town, anticipating a happy conclusion to the evening. In the middle of dinner he felt a stirring between his legs that continued to the point of being painful. To release the pressure, Jack placed his napkin on his lap and unzipped his fly. His penis immediately sprung from his pants, flipped the napkin on the floor, went to the top of the table, grabbed a bread roll and then returned to his pants! His girlfriend was stunned at first but then, imagining the possibilities, said with a sly smile and a gleam in her eye, "That was incredible! Can you do it again?" Jack groaned, "Probably, but I don't think I can fit another roll in my ass."
