Do you live in London? There is one with a menu that looks exactly like this in Edmonton Green. The hot mexican chilli one is pretty tasty, but also pretty damp.

Nah. Only about an hour away if you leave from King's Cross though.

Ham hocks an beans are one of my absolute favorite eats. Not runny like soup, but thicker. Add cornbread on the side, and it's perfect.



Ive been vegetarian for nearly 10 years now and this is honestly one of the things I miss the most. Slow cooked, with some good bread, this poo poo is amazing.

I still love bean stews but without the ham hocks they aren't quite the same

I got drunk tonight and my body decided it wanted to try and kill itself with a sodium overdose. I made a prison brick:



Pictured: 2 Ramen soups, crushed up and mixed with a lunchbox sized bag of Cheeto puffs, creating the "brick". Then a healthy spread of mayo, BBQ sauce and Sriracha sauce, shredded cheddar cheese, imitation Skyline chili, and crushed sour cream and onion popped rice cake chip things.

It was delicious. gently caress the haters. :colbert:

sour cream should not be a solid nor be in a state where you can crush it.

"crushed sour cream and onion popped rice cake chip things" is a single item. Crushed, sour-cream-and-onion flavoured, popped rice-cake/chip things.

Elotes are also a thing. A delicious, delicious thing.

You are 100% correct that elotes are delicious. However, those are not elotes.

But whoever thought of dunking a cob of roasted corn in mayo and then sprinkling it with chili-lime powder and grated cojita, that man should be made a saint.

I made a couple of vegan soups for my brother (he's vegetarian atm but has a vegan friend he wanted to share it with) and msg + soy sauce is very helpful for deep meaty flavors, as well as getting a lot of malliard reaction going on the vegetables with frying and oven-roasting

I would also start with those browned vegetables/beans and cook until soft, then strain the solids and blend them. I'd add the blended vegetables back to the stock I just made, which makes a thickened hearty soup! I would then sautee more vegetables and beans to put into that soup, and add pasta and fresh herbs. 👍👍👍

I'll have the opportunity to try a huitlacoche taco tomorrow, with roasted poblano, corn, onion, cotija, and cilantro. It's another one of those things I think is gross, but am willing to power through if it's not really disgustingly :barf: gross. Has anyone here had huitlacoche? Or should I spend my hard-earned money on tacos con cochinita pibil and al pastor instead? (They can call it "corn truffles" all they want, but I remember its time on Steve, Don't Eat It! all too well. Also, I'm not a huge fan of mushrooms/fungus in general.)

All the visible salt on the beans makes me slightly uncomfortable.

Aside from that, probably would. I am sure I probably put together this same combo more than once as a kid at Shakey's buffet.

God I hate canned Green Beans, they taste like how Formaldehyde smells

Which is weird because fresh or frozen Green Beans are okay(if still not my favorite by any stretch of the imagination), so I have to wonder what is it about the canning process that makes them taste like a funeral home?

You do not have to be good. You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.
Huitlacoche is juuuust above balut on my Nope List. I am an adventurous eater— I have literally picked termites off a tree in Belize to try them, and would describe them as “intensely carrot-flavored”— but corn smut hits my gross buttons in ways that other molds like blue cheese just don’t.

If you're making bean or pea soup without ham / ham hock, you can add smoked paprika and seasoned salt to make up for it.

Oh god this is making me recall memories that I had long buried. I can still remember this concoction tasting like how ash smells and leaving an aftertaste that felt a forest was growing out of my mouth, poo poo and corpses and dirt and everything. I thought those little things were like bamboo shoots or some root of some sort Oh god.

Never had it but I understood that canned hutlacoche is basically just steamed button mushrooms. Any corn smuttiness is lost in the canning process.

Which is endorsement enough to stay away unless you got a fresh source since mushrooms cooked to that consistency are the worst.

A few months ago I had a huitlacoche quesadilla at a place just outside Korea Town in Los Angeles.
I liked it. Very smoky in flavor, a not unpleasant hint of mustiness. Really went well with the blend of cheeses.

Not an everyday eating item for me, but yeah. Would again.

Well if it's any comfort by the time it's harvested it's basically mummified and the fungus has taken over every part in the caterpillar, so it's essentially a bug-shaped mushroom.
