Marta Velasquez posted:Welcome back, Nooner! hi thanks (: and it was pretty good, I think next time I would use a different cheese than ricotta but it wasnt bad just like a good idea of where i could take the idea and make it even better in the future. I might also have gone too hard on the olives too, i used 12 in it so 6 per breast which seemed like a good idea because me and gf both love them but it might have been a little over powering of the ricotta also idk

Maybe feta with the kalamata olives, that's pretty classic.

Its what happens when you have a heated argument about whether to have cake or just some sandwiches, and someone insist on finding neutral ground.

I know there's no substitute for Saffron. But if a peasant like me wanted to anyway, what would I use? The closest I've heard is blending turmeric and paprika together.

Safflower is the traditional "I don't have saffron but I want that color in my food" substitution. It won't work for flavor but it tastes okay and the color will be very similar.

If you're going for color, achiote (or paprika if you don't have achiote) and a bit of turmeric will almost get you there, but there's nothing that tastes like saffron. I had assumed he wanted to make a flavor substitute but I guess some people just like the color (which is understandable). SymmetryrtemmyS fucked around with this message at 19:31 on Jun 28, 2016 |

I guess if there were a flavor substitute though nobody'd go to the trouble of buying saffron.

I think I am losing my motivation to eat out alone. I travel all the time for work and used to love trying a new spot every night, but over the last six or so months I just cant seem to work up any excitement for it. I am in Vegas for the week and cannot get excited about going anywhere. It's lame as gently caress and I don't know whats going on.

Get your rear end to Chada Street by any means possible and order the crab fat fried rice. Pair it with whatever non-Riesling white is on the per-glass list - not because the Riesling won't be a good pairing, but because Banq is an amazing wine guy and whatever the non-Riesling option is will be fascinating and great. If you have room after the crab fat fried rice have the crispy duck panang (better than Lotus of Siam, and that's saying a lot), or the fish curry in banana leaf, or the crispy pork belly, or just the $3 side order thing that is peanuts flash fried with chiles and lemongrass and onions. Head to Zen Japanese Curry (Spring Mountain just west of Decatur) for the kind of restaurant that does one thing and does it better than anyone else. Then walk across the parking lot to Raku Sweets and have a three-course dessert tasting menu where you get to watch the chef make everything in front of you and it's all amazing. Get a table at Japanese Food By Omae for multiple-Michelin-starred quality in a four-table dining room that seats only twice nightly. The food oscillates between traditional Japanese and trippy as gently caress chef-playing-with-food dishes you'll never see the like of again. Some lunch head up to The Goodwich (LV Blvd and Hoover, just north of Charleston and get the Street Corn Sandwich. It will change your outlook on life, and it's the cheapest sandwich on the menu. Another lunch go to Flock and Fowl and have some of the best simple chicken-and-rice food ever made. Take a longer lunch and go to the extreme Southwest of Vegas to Due Forni. Order the Tartufo pizza - mozzarella di buffala, mushrooms, truffles, with a raw egg put on top of the pizza a minute before pulling it from the 1200-degree oven. They bring it to the table and smear the egg yolk over the pizza with the back of a spoon. Eye contact costs extra. For still more lunch go to Monta Ramen in Chinatown (or the other location in the southeast, but trust me, go to Chinatown instead) for the best tonkotsu ever. Want to stay on the Strip? Secret Pizza in the Cosmopolitan. Bouchon in the Venetian. Both will serve you well for the price. For the expense account, Jaleo in the Cosmo or Bazaar Meats in the SLS. But seriously, hop a cab/Uber and get off the Strip. It'll make things way better. For drinks, in order of best-ness: Atomic Liquors, Frankie's Tiki Lounge, Herbs and Rye, Golden Tiki.

All of that sounds amazing, but like, I kinda just want to sit in my room and watch Shark week and masterbate. Not to the Sharks, I mute it first. But, the crab fat fried rice does sound appealing and I will head there tomorrow to see if I can get my groove back. That being said, where does a crab have fat? I have eaten many a crab and never noticed anything that seems fat-like.

I hate it when a good, informed discussion about psuedoscience gets derailed by memes.  but thank you subg, wiggles, etc.in unrelated sane not-contentious talk - I am flying to san sebastian tomorrow. I have a reservation at martin berasategui, and on hold for arzak. it's been like 8 years since I was last there. my gal and I plan on renting a car for at least a couple days - anyone have any food/wine/tourism tips for the region? we'll stay in bilbao a night too - otherwise not much set in stone, other than "relax". and watch die mannschaft destroy italy in the quarterfinal on saturday...

mindphlux posted:I hate it when a good, informed discussion about psuedoscience gets derailed by memes. I'm developing a college course right now on pseudoscience. I probably won't get to teach it until Fall 2017 but have to get a syllabus together by Spring 2017 to get vetted by my Dept Chair etc. I have a couple of non-food related topics I wanted to touch on (known causes of autism/ vaccines risks real vs perceived, homeopathy, etc etc). There are a lot of food / nutrition related topics that also would be useful to discuss and I can reach out to a professor in Nutrition to help as well but figured this might be a good place to get some ideas as well. For food related stuff I'm thinking of covering "Diet and pH", "Fat, cholesterol and human genetics" and maybe spend 1 lecture going over a bunch of dietary fads that looked good on paper but haven't necessarily panned out, ie Oat Bran, Atkins, Fat-free, etc. Purpose of the course is for freshman/sophomores from all areas (actually hoping for more non-science majors) to get a general understanding of pseudoscience topics since these are people that generally become 'at risk' to believe many fads/ bullshit on social media. Any other pervasive food / nutrition things yall run into that is bogus?

I'll probably spend a little time on gluten, going into celiac disease and legitimate issues. That's a part I will need to talk to a nutrition pro about as apart from legitimate celiac cases I know of no reason / benefit for being 'gluten free'. I don't think there is one, but want to be certain before getting to the topic.

bongwizzard posted:Whats wrong with Oat Bran, that stuff gives me powerful poops, which I assume is what is is supposed to do? In the late 80's / early 90's it was heavily marketed as heart friendly etc. There was a big craze about it being super beneficial for heart disease / cholesterol issues. Turns out there wasn't really much going on there. Just using it as an example of a fad diet that was later disproven. It's not bad for you or anything, but you don't see people advocating it strongly as something you need to be eating.

Oat bran is good fiber. Fiber is good. Sometimes I add it to bread for "rusticness".

I don't like most of their menu compared to other places but they have a totally bitching herbal salad which is my hangover cure of choice.
