Butcher paper is just cheap heavy duty paper. If you don't need the non-stick or heat resistant properties of parchment, waxed, or freezer paper and just want to wrap something, butcher paper is way cheaper.

Well i believe its either waxed or coated somehow to stop juices from leaking through.

Butcher paper is uncoated. If it's waxed or has a poly coating, it's freezer paper.

Yeah, I see poly coated freezer paper way more often than I see actual butcher paper these days, at least at the meat counter. Butcher paper shows up more frequently, at least in my experience, in places like sandwich shops, bbq joints, and that kind of thing.

I've posted this recipe in here before. I like it because its not as firm as a New York style cheesecake, it's more custardy. It's a two layer deal, with with a sweet custardy base topped by a thin tart sour cream layer.


Crust

9 graham crackers
1/3 cup butter
1/4 cup sugar

Crush the crackers (I do it in a zip lock baggie with a rolling pin). Stir with sugar and melted butter until well mixed. Press in to 9 inch springform pan and bake for 10 minutes @ 350 (or until it just starts to brown around the edges). Make sure the crust has cooled completely before pouring in the next step.

Cheesecake layer:

16 oz cream cheese, room temp
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla

Cream the cream cheese and sugar well. Add eggs, one at a time until incorporated well. Add vanilla. Pour into cooled crust and bake @ 350 for 20 minutes. Remove and add sour cream layer.

Sour cream
16 oz sour cream
1 tbsp sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla

Mix all ingredients well. I pipe it on the top with a ziplock to get it on evenly and then smooth it with an offset spatula.

Put back in oven for 10 more minutes at 350. Cool on the counter for one hour, then refrigerate. This will take a minimum of 6 hours to set up in the fridge, but chilling overnight is preferred. It is a very creamy/custardy cheesecake. The dairy:egg:sugar ratio is just about 4:1:1 (the sugar is a little higher, but cream cheese also has some tartness to offset it).

Just wear the fucking mask, Bob

I don't care how many people I probably infected with COVID-19 while refusing to wear a mask, my comfort is far more important than the health and safety of everyone around me!

I use a variation of the one on the boxes of Kraft Philadelphia Cream Cheese. Take out 2 egg yolks, add 1 tbsp corn starch, add 16oz of sour cream, add a good amount of lemon zest and the juice of half a lemon whisk the living poo poo out of (or use an electric mixer), bake it at 300 and then turn off the oven and let it go for another hour.

I also like using Oreos or chocolate graham crackers for the crust.

Put orange zest in your graham cracker crust. It goes really, really well with the creamy richness of the cheesecake.

Anyone have a tested recipe for a no-bake cheesecake? Not a pudding type one, but this restaurant near me serves this cheesecake that I think is just cream cheese, whipped cream, and sugar all mixed up.

My aunt makes the one off the Cool Whip package at Thanksgiving and Christmas. 8 oz softened cream cheese, 8 oz whipped cream, 1/3 cup sugar. Cream the sugar and cheese then stir in the cream. Dump it in your crust and refrigerate for a few hours. It's alright, nowhere near as dense as a regular one.

I don't think it's crema. Maybe it is traditionally, but at places like Rubio's and taco shops in Southern California is what I'm thinking of. It's got more flavors in it and a different viscosity.

Might be a good base to start with though

Lots of various recipes online, not a ton of consensus. Kenji just uses mayo and hot sauce.

sour cream loosened with water -> lime juice -> lime juice & cilantro -> lime juice & cilantro & spicy

crema / creme fraiche -> etc

Yeah a lot of the recopies online are like that, or sour cream and mayo. Thats why I asked in here thought someone might know better.

I mean, I guess I could just try a few and see what works.

Back up, what kind of brown rice are you buying and where are you getting it? Brown rice will get rancid and go bad way faster than white rice. That's probably what's up if it tastes terrible and not just boring.

I think you will get similar results as long as you use sour cream/yogurt, crema, whatever else and add some lime juice and seasoning. So yeah...try a few, basically. I don't think anyone here works for Rubios.

But post your results please because I have been trying to replicate Rubios fish tacos for years with varying levels of success.

My solution is to run it through a non-bullshit rice cooker with a pinch of MSG and salt. Mine is the zojirushi np-nvc10, but there are other less expensive cookers that can reliably unfuck brown rice.

Good brown rice from a store that sells lots of it is the way to go. Also try giving it the pilaf treatment: a light toasting or frying with a few aromatics and seasoning before you steam/boil it.

Why have I never microwaved potatoes? So drat easy. Nuked a bowl of small yellow potatoes for 5 minutes, added butter and seasoning and mashed. So simple and it doesn't take up a burner on the stove.

Was re-watching The Sopranos and in the middle of an episode one of the characters advised that, after draining pasta, you should toss a bit of sauce & a slice of butter in and keep it on heat for a bit under a minute to infuse the sauce flavor into the pasta. I know it's a TV show but I found a few blogs and cooking places recommending a similar technique..does this make an appreciable difference or would the quality of sauce be more important?
