It's just oil, soy sauce, vinegar, mirin, sesame seeds, maybe some onion.

I already have high blood pressure and I make it worse with the caffeine I drink, no reason to add sodium to the aggravating factors. I do throw in Nori Komi Furikake.

Hey GWS, I don't do much baking. But my friend, who has wicked headaches, gets even wickeder headaches when she eats sugar, so I decided to whip up a batch of ginger cookies for her, with the sweet ingredients (sugar and molasses) replaced by sweeteners. They were good! Actually tasty, though obviously a little different from the usual flavour. One key problem: I replaced the molasses with brown sugar sucrella. This removal of liquid made the cookies super dry (it was actually kind of interesting - they crumbled in your mouth, but when started chewing, they turned almost creamy). So, is there something I can add to this that will either leave the flavour unaffected or make it better? More butter, some cream, something like that? Remember, these aren't supposed to be 'healthy' cookies or anything like that, she just can't eat sugar.

Ok this might be a stupid question. But i tried to follow a recipie call "boiled water" from "How to cook everthing" and what i dont understand is how to ad the garlic to the water. If i chop it into small pieces the water is still full of garlic and not very nice to eat Inputs?

Saint Darwin posted:So odd questions, but for you folks who work a desk job, what do you do for lunch? I got a bunch of decent ramen bricks and ate them but the sodium kills me and they're not very filling. Today I brought in one of my containers of slow cooked chicken, heated it up with some frozen vegetables I keep here and threw it on instant rice and threw some ginger sesame seasoning on top and it's pretty good. However, I'm weird and can't eat the same thing days in a row. Thermos style bento boxes are great for avoiding stinking out your office by microwaving your leftovers. Also, cheap and delicious are Vietnamese sandwiches if you have one near you. Lunch for me for a long time was a $3 BBQ pork sandwich with misc leftovers from the night before.

fritzov posted:Sorry, I was not sure if those recipies was copyrighted. You're straining it at the end so you don't really need to worry about having huge garlic chunks or anything, i'd just crush it with the side of a chef's knife or a pan or something. That's a pretty weird recipe, but I could see it being good though. It would probably be even way better with good stock instead of water.

CloseFriend posted:Tonight I was reading Ratio and on a lark, I decided to make cookies where I used sesame seed oil instead of butter. I basically ended up mixing together the oil, the sugar, some flour, a splash of water, a banana, a hell of a lot of honey, and an egg. They came out tasting… weird. A bit salty, but with an eventual sweet aftertaste. I got the texture about right (at least fresh out of the oven, which they just exited a few minutes ago), but the sesame seed oil really creates this distracting incongruity between smell and taste. The balance is really wonky between the three "main" flavors. I make cookies with the following ingredients: 1 cup peanut butter 1 egg 1 cup sugar or Splenda Beat eggs, mix all ingredients, and bake at 350 for seven minutes. I'm pretty sure sesame paste could be incorporated, or maybe even replace the peanut butter entirely.

Upmarket Mango posted:I've got some Italian sausage links and sliced Portabella mushrooms that are about to go bad and I was wondering if you fine goons have any ideas for recipes? Thanks in advance. dude... Onion, green bell peppers, some celery all fried up in butter in a pan. Chunk up some garlic then throw it on top of this nice base. Toss in the mushrooms and get them good and cooking. Put the sausage links on top of all this fine hot mess so they get a little browning and start to cook. Mix it all up then add a cup or so of red wine and cook down for a little bit. Throw in some red pepper flakes and salt and pepper. Add a couple cans of stewed tomatoes or one can of stewed and a can of tomato sauce. Heat to a boil, turn down to a simmer and walk away for an hour or two. Come back to fuckoff brilliant sauce to pour over whatever pasta you have around PLUS bigass sausages to guzzle. Oh hell yes.

Unfortunately they probably wouldn't have Italian parsley, and I have no idea how Korean parsley (minari) compares flavor-wise.

The Datil pepper harvest was good this year! Any suggestions/recipes? I use them in salsa but this is a freaking ton of peppers and not the kind you just throw in there by the handful else you will pay for it, dearly. The yellow peppers are the killers, they eventually turn purple and will eat through plastic. Those are the big Ziploc bags too..

I'm trying to make hummus to this recipe. This One I have been unable to find any Tahini, but as far as i understand its just sesame seed paste. Would i be able to substitute it with sesame seed oil? If i could would i need to make any changes to the recipe because of that and what would be a reasonable substitution ratio for the 100ml suggested in the recipe?
