Bromelain is an enzyme found in pineapples. It breaks down proteins into smaller chunks, and is used as a meat tenderizer. Also the reason why your mouth feels raw after eating fresh pineapple.

Probably the least scary part of the $1 steak. Worst part is the factory farm.

a) Neat!

b) Regardless, it still makes it sound like a lot of consumers would be really intimate with that knowledge and it comes off like an old-timey Sears ad for some mysterious green liquid that comes in a glass bottle and promises to grant users "vitality and proper vigour".

Too much fat, not enough flour. Common mistake for gravy newbies.

zedprime posted:

I made similar looking "gravy" this past Xmas because it was the first time using pan drippings from a turkey with the skin stuffed with butter. Turned out a lot of the pan drippings were clarified butter and after reducing the broth portion, that ratio was even worse. Flour ended up thickening the broth layer while leaving the clarified butter on top, and trying to emulsify the concoction together just caused the thick gravy layer to turn grainier looking than Bristol type 6.

Next time, buy one of those fat separator cups. Works like a charm.

Wasn't that the "vegan" Biscuits and gravy recipe someone posted several dozen pages ago? And that was just some really loving weird mashed oats and oil concoction with soy milk?

One day vegans and vegetarians will realize that it is better to play to veggies' strengths than try to turn them into things they are completely unsuited for.

The Kitchn just resposted the thing about chickpea packing liquid being an egg white substitute. You can make vegan meringue with it? I'm almost tempted to try it, honestly.

I don't know if people make roux with vegetable or olive oil, and I don't care if they do, but I'll still say it's wrong :colbert:. If I had done that in culinary school, the chef would have drown me in the deep fryer.

Yeah, I make a stuffed roasted squash dish for thanksgiving that's delicious and can easily be made vegan if needed (I usually use some egg to bind the rice and bean stuffing). Works as a main dish or a side.

Veggie dishes can be great if they're not pretending to be meat or cheese.

I actually like vegetarian stuff like black bean burgers and quorn nuggets and would eat them all the time if they weren't more expensive than the real thing for some stupid reason.

I will never understand this. It's so easy to make a vegetarian mushroom gravy that works great over biscuits, but the most common recipes you'll see are trying hard to emulate sausage gravy.

My wife is a vegetarian and I'm the primary cook, so I learned a long time ago that vegetables are not meat. Don't try to make them meat. Veggies can't do what meat does. They'll always lose. On the other hand, meat can't do what veggies do, so why not try to emphasize that as much as possible?

You can make black bean burgers for super cheap! It's pretty much just black beans, additional veggies of you want, bread crumbs and an egg.

I still buy the Morningstar Farms frozen kind because they're stupid easy for when I want a meal.

I like this one, there's a story here.

Sally is preparing for the Church potluck, green bean casserole recipe laid out on the counter, an unused Pyrex 9x14 greased and ready. Her beautiful children take their sack lunches - ham and cheese for Heather and peanut butter for James - and a kiss for the road, and head to the bus. A loving hug from her husband flutters her belly as he runs out the door to see his perfect children before they get on the bus.

"I need to pick up corn flakes for this casserole" is the last thought before her life changed.

The brakes on the bus were broken before it left the depot that morning. A recall for the cooling fan of the hydraulic pump was to be issued the following day.

Sally was still thinking of corn flakes when the bus hit the curb. She was still thinking about corn flakes when the police and fire trucks poo poo off their lights.

"I told them I would bring a casserole" she thought vaguely. All that's left is a half bowl of uneaten Cheerios and maybe 40 long years of futile life.

Supposed to be corn flakes.

"Supposed to be corn flakes" she said, placing the dish on the fold-out table.

She could have just had one of the firemen pick up some corn flakes for her. The blame still falls on her for being lazy.

What about creole cooking? Olive oil roux is pretty essential to making a good gumbo. Cook it black.
