In the end I went super simple; slice the carrots, quick blanch to get them about half-way cooked, and then a light dressing with rice vinegar, salt and pepper. I think I'll try some kind of butter poaching for the rest of them, similar to that radish recipe. I like my carrots rare, though; I've been to Ireland, and if I never eat another mushy carrot again it will be too soon.

A few weeks ago (6?) I poached some chicken thighs with celery, onion, garlic, salt, etc. After removing the thighs and aromatics I reduced the liquid for a while until I got what I guess is concentrated chicken stock. I then put that into a mason jar (washed, not sterilized), closed it and put it in the fridge once it got cooler. How long can that last? I had forgotten about it until my wife mentioned it last night.

I would throw that poo poo right out unless you pressure canned it or froze it.

Yeah that's way too long for just the fridge, don't do it. Portion it and freeze next time.

If it's like 10% salt it might be okay but it's just some boiled chicken bones and root vegetables. The dollar you're pouring down the drain isn't worth the risk of vomiting while also making GBS threads during the vomiting for the next three days.

I'm putting together a eating challenge for a Christmas party, consisting of military members and their spouses and the prize is going to be a Playstation 4. I'm am planning 7 rounds with varying odd and challenging foods each person needs to eat and the last person to finish per round doesn't go on. I'm thinking a big dog biscuit for round 1 and a whole jalapeño as the final round. I need help coming up with other ideas and I figured you amazing food nerds would help me with some crazy food ideas that I can hopefully get on amazon or even local to Raleigh, NC area.

Baking question! I'm making this recipe https://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/brioche-au-sucre and have put it away to sit in the fridge per instructions. My question is technical about the next part: "Butter cups of a standard 12-cup muffin pan. Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface and roll out to a 15x15" square. Sprinkle ½ cup pearl sugar evenly over, pressing gently to adhere. Starting on the side closest to you, lift dough with a bench scraper and tightly roll away from you into a log, brushing excess flour from the underside as you go. Press or roll log to an even thickness. Cut dough into 12 pieces, then cut each piece into thirds. Lightly press 3 pieces into prepared cup, arranging side by side in the 12, 8, and 4 o’clock positions. Repeat with remaining pieces. Place muffin pan in warm, draft-free area, then lay a sheet of plastic wrap or waxed paper over. Let dough rise until light and doubled (dough should rise almost 3" above top of muffin cups), 1–1½ hours." I'm not sure how to interpret that. I could: 1. press the wedges into position like pieces in a trivial pursuit game piece 2. press the wedges, large end down with the peaks sticking straight up 3. I don't know, kind of press them along the side? with the wide edges smashed into the bottom? 4. forget about the wedges, and roll the three pieces into little tight balls and then just drop them into each cup. Which way is correct? Am I being a bonehead and just reading something wrong? I'm getting really hung up on that "side by side in the 12, 8 and 4 o'clock" thing

SubG posted:All of these things are good and aren't even particularly weird. Gusanos are rich but don't have that off iodine taste that a lot of edible insect-based poo poo does. Eating grasshopper covered in chili powder is like eating any other crispy thing covered in chili powder. And century egg is like, holy poo poo if you're making congee add extra century egg please. You can throw in huitlacoche into the seems a little weird but is actually good and not that weird pile as well. I remember as a kid the first time we tried chapulines. My little brother brought some to school and made some money betting other kids he'd eat a grasshopper. Edit: I brought some chapulines to work and only one person out of 7 ventured to eat some. rgocs fucked around with this message at 21:04 on Nov 3, 2017 |

If you're gonna do a pepper, make it 5 of them or something, and they must each be chewed for at least 5 seconds before swallowing, otherwise someone will just take it down in one go.

Personal favourite: banana onion juice. Never tried it myself, but it seems interesting.

Seconding the recommendation to find an Asian market if possible. They'll have lots of stuff like chicken feet that can be quite good (ed: if prepared correctly) but *sound* like they'll be unpleasant. Also, please update us on what you end up choosing and how it goes.

I mean sure I bet you would freak out some people with it and I'm not trying to do some `your food isn't really weird' one-upmanship or anything. I'm more just kinda worried that someone just lurking is going to see something like chicken feet or gusanos and be scared off trying 'em themselves even though they're really tame for `weird' foods. If that makes sense. Like they're totally in the if you didn't know what they were you'd never bat an eye side of things (like, say, brains and eggs and most random critter game meats).

How about doing something with Vegemite or Marmite? I’m guessing you and your guests are American so are unused to the salty goodness of this heavenly spread. Maybe ask them to eat a certain amount or for a set time or see who can empty a small jar of it?

TychoCelchuuu posted:You might just be hanging out with extremely white people or whatever but a whole jalapeño is basically a joke for anyone who eats even remotely spicy food. That's like eating a whole apple or something. You should probably start at something like a habañero if you want to rule out people on some basis other than "can't handle anything spicy because I'm very white" or something like that. You have no idea how right you are on this, I made some chili with fire roasted jalapeños in it and it just about blew half the people away with heat, was sad and funny at the same time. I like the ideas of weird textures and foods not commonly found in America, I'm honestly contemplating cat food for the final round because that would be hilarious. With a PS4 on the line I could probably get away with it. I'm looking to start at a dog biscuit for round one speed eating and working my way progressively worse from there. I have a good month and a half to plan this and I do have a small Asian food store in town too. I would love a terrible texture round, followed by super sour, salty and hot would all be great. What happens to cooked spaghetti after it sits in water for hours? Edit: I love chicken feet, heart, liver, kidneys and just about every part of the animal and if I ever talk about it at work I get lots of queasy face and these are dudes in the military. My 5 year old will destroy a plate of chicken feet with me and the avid hunter types haven't even tried venison heart, they leave it behind unless I ask for it.

In that case find your local Little Saigon and buy a couple orders of ox dick and tripe bún bò Huế and just make sure to keep mentioning it contains animal penis and guts. Edit: With the bonus being that you get to keep it all to yourself when they freak out, because that poo poo's seriously good y'all.

Rough estimate on what percentage of a whole chicken is meat and skin? I've heard 60%. So a whole chicken at $3/pound is about the same price as boneless chicken pieces at $5/pound. We regularly buy a whole chicken for roasting as a main dish. We also buy boneless breasts/thighs for other dishes. We think it might be cheaper to buy another whole chicken and cut it up than to buy the boneless bits. We're trying to quantify it. So what percentage of that whole chicken is actual, tasty meat?

Chicken bones also can be made into stock along with other veggie scraps that you can then use to stretch other foods.

Rythe posted:What happens to cooked spaghetti after it sits in water for hours? It will keep absorbing water and expanding, eventually turning to mush and disintegrating. I added pasta to chicken soup once, and when I took the leftovers out of the fridge a few days later the paste had absorbed all of the soup's liquid.
