Makin a pot roast in an instant pot. I browned the meat and then deglazed the pan with some beef broth but I don't have a very good tool for scraping so I only got most of the bottom clean. No big chunks of stuck on poo poo but if I poured the broth out I wouldn't call it clean. Do I have to worry about whatever is still stuck on a bit burning to charcoal when I actually start cooking the pot roast?

No. Because you’re adding liquid to the pot, it’s certain to dissolve in the cooking.

Wooden spoons/turners/spatulas are pretty much indispensable for scraping on pots/pans of any material that you don't want to gently caress up.

Looks like you can order online from at least one of them too if you need an extra option other than Amazon. I like both of these links, thanks! I'm not particularly close to Brighton but I'll give the online store a look and see how the prices compare to amazon. Completely agree about River Cottage, I find Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall quite irritating but he does know food. Thanks for the other replies too.

I have a recipe calling for "granulated garlic". Is that just garlic salt, or garlic powder, or something else?

# ? Oct 17, 2018 21:27 |

Dried garlic and nothing else. Should be roughly sugar sized granules or slightly bigger Garlic powder can be subbed I think, I'd roughly guess 1 volume of garlic powder = 2 volumes of granulated garlic Steve Yun fucked around with this message at 21:38 on Oct 17, 2018 |

So no, it's not garlic salt, or garlic powder, or anything else. Granulated garlic is a thing in and of itself.

Steve Yun posted:Is garlic powder not the same thing delivered in smaller particles? It can, but the flavor is sharper and more one-dimensional. Since they're both dried, the difference isn't tremendous. I wouldn't double the volume of garlic powder though, maybe x1.5.

A few times it's been mentioned that an easier way to make rice is just boil it and pour off the water. I decided to try it, following a video that may have been posted here, or maybe YT recommended it. Washed the rice and soaked for 15 minutes. Boiled for 10 minutes, Drained and put in a serving bowl. It was saturated when first drained but after a few minutes it dried a bit and had a nice texture. The grains were larger than my usual way. I will probably switch to this way for awhile and see how it goes. How necessary is the soaking?

Is there a vegetarian thread? I'm trying to go meatless (not full-on vegan; don't take my cheese from me) one day a week. Also, what to put into rice and lentils? Rice and beans or rice and lentils are hearty, healthy, filling, and a great blank canvas for spices and veggies. They're my go-to veggie main dish. Do you have any preferred recipes?

Mustard/Collard/Turnip greens are amazing mixed into beans and rice. I recommend doing the greens up soul-food style - sauteed with some onions and garlic until the onions go transparent and the greens are wilty, then simmer them in a vegetable stock with crushed red pepper and hot sauce to taste. Mix that in with the beans and rice and get a dose of vitamins and minerals with the carbs and protein.

Vegetarians are allowed to eat vegan food, so you can check out that thread. It of course won't have posts about all the food you can eat, but then again, even a vegetarian thread wouldn't accomplish that.

After thinking about it some more, I'd also suggest you just make some vegetable stock and can/freeze it for future use if you're going to be doing lots of beans/rice and a vegetarian diet. Vegetable stock literally is transformative when used as a liquid for making beans/rice. It's also best to make your own to control the amount of salt in it. If you keep the salt down, then you can use a 50/50 veg. stock to water ratio when you're cooking beans and not have them get tough on you, and infuse them with amazing flavor during the simmering.

Thanks for the rice/lentils advice. Now, how to spice up (pun intended) chicken pot pie? I grew up on chicken pot pie and love the basic recipe: A roux of butter and flour to thicken chicken stock, plus chicken, carrots, celery and onion, all baked in a pie shell. My wife, who didn't grow up on it, thinks chicken pot pie is bland and watered down. She's only had store-bought frozen pot pies. I want to make chicken pot pie for her, and I'd like to break from the traditional recipe. My current plan is just to mix curry powder with the chicken. She likes curried chicken salad, so she might like curried chicken pot pie. What other spices would work with a creamy chicken sauce? Rosemary? Thyme? A little more exotic, like coriander or sumac? Maybe some cheese added to the sauce? Or bacon (we make our own bacon)? I'm brainstorming here.

Going to try making gumbo from scratch this weekend, including making my own roux. The only big soup pot that I have has a non-stick coating on the inside, but I feel like every video I watch of roux-making using a pot without a non-stick lining. Is that non-stick lining going to be a problem for my roux?

Just keep it moving. Bagheera posted:Thanks for the rice/lentils advice. Now, how to spice up (pun intended) chicken pot pie?

I was gonna suggest the same. The only reason chicken pot pie is bland is if it's underseasoned. Getting some good flavor in the stock and adding some classic herbs and spices should remedy that.

Bagheera posted:Thanks for the rice/lentils advice. Now, how to spice up (pun intended) chicken pot pie? I'd say adding mushrooms may be good, they can add a nice savory flavor in. And make sure it's all properly salted too! If she thinks the homemade version is bland compared to a pre-packaged one that may be code for salt; the commercial versions will almost always be heavily seasoned. Don't over-do it, just make sure it's sufficient. A lot of stuff will taste not very good until you get the right salt content then it's great (like refried beans).

I don't have any recommendations, I got a cheap one 5 years ago so I'm interested too. But sometimes they're called "immersion blender" or "stick blender" as well. There's also a Kitchen Equipment Thread but I'm sure most of the people reading that are reading this anyway.
