It's a point of policy that Wikipedia is Not Work Safe. I learned that in relation to the page Human anus, the talk page for which is my favorite page on the internet, especially the phrase "I'm not convinced that more pictures of anuses are needed." I've been following the human anus page for years. There's an eternal battle over the image/s. It's the most Wikipedia thing in the world.

Is making spaghetti carbonara with leftover Christmas ham instead of pancetta acceptable, or am I unwittingly committing one of the Great Sins of Pasta?

The only sin for the Italians I know would be to go out and waste money on pancetta when you already have perfectly good ham to use.

SubG posted:The oldest recipe (from the early 19th Century) calls for lardo, and after the Second World War it was apparently common to use bacon (because of the American servicemen stationed there). The insistence on pancetta or guanciale---lest the histrionics of the `purity' gods be invoked---appears to be an almost entirely modern creation. I suspect the same is true for the pesant dish chili that some wierdos insist can absolutely consist of nothing but good quality beef and chili peppers with absolutely no cheap filler like beans.

You know what is even more delicious? Replace the peas with mussles, and maybe add a dash of white wine. Carbonara with some form of smoked pork product, cream and mussles is the greatest.

You can suspect what you want, but the facts don't back that up. quote:Various savory compounds, swimming in firey pepper which biteth like a serpent. This is a compound of chopped meat and pulverized red pepper, stewed until the meat has been thoroughly saturated with the pepper The original Chili Queen recipe contained no filler. quote:2 lbs beef shoulder, cut into ˝-inch cubes The important thing to remember about original chili is that it was more of a combination between soup and sauce. Mexican cooking is real big on sauces, all the "filler" was in the items on the side, which were actually more of the main course, tamales and beans and such. The chili itself was an accompaniment to that meal. Edit: Note, that I'm not saying you can't make chili with beans, or vegetarian chili, or whatever. Do what floats your boat. I'm just saying that in this case, the purists are technically correct when they say that originally the recipe had no filler in it. And technically correct is the best possible kind of correct.

Chili is two things. Meat, and chiles. Period. Beans do not go in chili. Calling a chili a 'peasant dish' isn't quite right either. Mexican cooking isn't like European cooking. The entree isn't the focus, its the (much cheaper) sides. In Mexican cooking you have rice, beans, and a thing to put on a tortilla or on the rice. Tex-mex has ruined the proper idea of Mexican food.

That Works posted:That sounds more like tex mex But yeah if you asked me to list quintessentially Mexican dishes I'd go to mole (and specifically mole poblano, even though I don't think that even makes my like top five favourite moles) and tamales and poo poo like that that totally doesn't fit the `rice beans tortilla' model of Mexican cooking. But you know, whatever. Food purity arguments are basically the dumbest poo poo, especially since food history (that is, independent of concerns about purity or authenticity or whatever) is such great poo poo.

I'm willing to accept that the closest thing we have to 'authentic' chili contains no beans, but please, do not refer to beans as "filler".  Beans are nature's most perfect food.

Find Bill Buford and make him finish writing his drat French book. I spent Christmas there a few years ago, staying with friends. Seems like a cool town. If you'll have a car there's a lot to explore nearby too. sweat poteto fucked around with this message at 07:44 on Dec 29, 2015 |
