Also don't eat rice, even if you think the clot has healed a lot. It was the most nauseating thing having to pick rice grains out of my bloody socket, all the while worrying I'd pop something and make my mouth bleed real bad.

Crockpot or stove top: Pumpkin Curry Soup 28oz of plain canned pumpkin 4C chicken or vegetable broth 1/3C honey 1TBS curry powder (more or less to taste) Stir everything & heat through. Swirl some heavy whipping cream in the bowl when you serve it. It is also delicious cold and one of my favorite summer soups. It should be good when chilled if you are worries about breaking up any clots.

It’s alright, I am here to save you all from the mundanity of boring soups, with the greatest soup of all. I mean, of course, broccoli and stilton.

Wrong actually the best soup is Indonesian peanut soup.

My first week was mainly starvation, but the food I did eat was fermented milk products (kefir, drinking yogurt, etc) and protein shakes. Week two started to introduce barely warm chicken broth but was still mainly the above. I started to think about scrambled eggs after a month or so. If I had been up to cooking, I would have probably gone with cold soups. Broccoli, asparagus, and Brussels sprouts cooked in broth with thyme, garlic, leeks and blended to a velvety puree, then stir some cream in at serving time. Vichyssoise. Gazpacho. You get the idea. Instead, I was busy being passed out on pain pills. Great way to lose weight, by the way. SymmetryrtemmyS fucked around with this message at 23:40 on Apr 4, 2018 |

I was not at all joking about blending regular food, btw. It's the best way to get actual protein, and somehow it makes you feel more like a person. Also, blended hot dogs are not unlike pâté.

Yeah it's definitely more about blending individual foods imo. Entire turkey dinner, no. Turkey and carrots and potatoes all separate, yes.

So I'm making red beans and rice, and the store sells hamhocks in threes. Two went in the pot, but I'm at a loss of what to do with the third.

I don't remember why I bought these cranberries, a long time ago. What do you like to do with cranberries? - Stupid option: I have a food dehydrator, I could shrink them down in a couple of days pretty easily. But I feel like there are better options.

aight y’all I got a bunch of sweet potatoes I’m gonna chop up to bake fries I got: Chopped garlic Chili powder Curry powder Cayenne powder Salt Olive oil Coconut oil Various seasonings/basic cooking poo poo Was thinking I’d toss them in olive oil, salt, garlic, and curry powder; or should I just toss them in oil/garlic and then sprinkle some salt on before I throw them in the oven? I love coconut oil but it’s not summer yet so I’d have to melt it down a bit before tossing in it.

I toss them with canola and whatever I feel like of the following: garlic powder, roasted garlic powder, onion powder, toasted onion powder, black pepper, cayenne, Aleppo pepper, cumin, celery salt, various smoked salts, smoked paprika, just a smidge of cinnamon I think if you do actual chopped garlic it'll probably burn if you have the oven hot enough for the fries to crisp at all.

LPT par boil, cut into fries, and toss in a corn starch slurry. The starch from the potatoes and the slurry combine, create a great ~natural~ crust with lots of surface area. Originally saw this for ATK deep fried fries but I tried both ways and it works great in the oven too. One time I was lazy and instead of par boiling I cut into fries, put in a glass bowl covered tightly with plastic wrap, and steamed in the microwave for 5 minutes. Almost as good and super simple.

Anyone made a jiggly Japanese cheesecake? I made my first tonight and it was s super interesting process. Everything seemed to go just right, but then I noticed after taking it out of the oven A) it smelled a bit like an omelette and B) despite following the directions, it feels like it “separated” and I have a denser “omelette” layer on the bottom. Anyone had one before? Is it aromatically ‘eggy’? And any tips for how to avoid a dense, eggy bottom?

You can also just bash em up in a big bowl after blanching, until the outer layer gets roughed up.

Post your recipe? From a quick browse at a couple random recipes, it looks like you're making a custard as one of the steps. If you heat the custard too hard/not mix well/fast enough when you add the egg yolks, it's gonna scramble and you get a sweet omelet flavor.

I tossed it with 1:1-ish maple syrup and olive oil, tossed some of the minced garlic in there with it. Sprinkled with curry powder, salt, and chili powder then in the oven. Any reason to have tossed any of the powders/salts, or just sprinkle on top as I did? Didn’t have cinnamon but that might have been a good touch. Maybe should use garlic powder instead of the minced?? Starch would have added a nice crust for sure

Mixing them with the spices just means there are spices on all four sides instead of only one. Also, you can lick your fingers afterward. It doesn't matter.

You probably needed to temper the eggs when making the custard. Tempering eggs means putting a little bit of the hot liquid into the eggs before all of it goes in. This stops the eggs from getting basically scrambled and that eggy flavor. Like Casu Marzu said, post your recipe.

Another possibility is that the oven was a bit too hot. When you make creme brulee, you can put them in a water bath in the oven to try and keep the temperature from getting too high, I'm not sure if that would be possible in this case?

Not sure how to link, I just have the Tasty App. Your logic sounds sound, though. Thanks! I tried hard to follow it to a “T”. It said to get really stiff peaks out of my egg whites, which I totally did... but it felt really foamy so maybe that was it? Maybe it didn’t incorporate as well... [Ed] oh here’s the recipe... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=TeoS_fQWvkY Different topic: I got some pork belly. Last time I did a Sous Vide cook that was 10 hours. I just saw a recipe that was 7 hours in the oven. Then pan-frying. Are there any “fast/traditional” cook times for pork belly? (An hour or two...?)

Most red-braised pork recipes are an hour or two cooking. I like this one a lot. Regarding that cheesecake recipe you linked: if it tasted eggy, I'm certain the cream mixture was too hot for the egg yolks. It's a classic mistake with egg custards, especially making simple flavored ones like this or flan.

https://hot-thai-kitchen.com/gai-golae/ I'm planning on making this soon and picked up some dried tamarinds from winco to make the tamarind paste/juice that the recipe called for...and in the process of learning on Google how to rehydrate them I learn there are sweet and sour varieties? How can I tell which one I have?

BraveUlysses posted:https://hot-thai-kitchen.com/gai-golae/ Unless the package explicitly says sweet it's likely the sour variety. Sweet tamarind is grown in a specific province making it more expensive and generally eaten as a snack while sour pods are used for cooking.

Was swapping recipes with mum, and she had a bunch of hand written pages she got from an Indian lady she took a cooking class under ages back. Was pretty straight forward sort of recipes, with the exception that every recipe that called for cumin seeds also called for ground cumin seeds as a separate ingredient. They weren't for separate steps either, it's just for doing the temper. I have no idea why, and google doesn't shed any light. Is this a thing?

I've never added them simultaneously so maybe that lady just really loves cumin.
