I got a big batch of blue crabs. Anyone have a recipe that's not just steaming? If nothing sticks out they're going in a dry curry.

Are you talking about Rancho Gordo https://www.ranchogordo.com They have a lot of different beans on their site. Definitely on the expensive side, but I assume they're good beans?

It was the Purcell Mountain Farms site, but thanks for the other one too! I've had too many bad experiences with hard old supermarket beans so I'm willing to pay a little extra.

Crab cakes. Steam them, then pick them.

For every pound of crab meat, mix in:

4 teaspoons of bread crumbs
4 teaspoons of mayo (make your own if you want, it's better)
1 tsp dried mustard
2 tsp fresh chopped parsley
1 egg
salt and pepper to taste

In a mixing bowl, mix it all together, then pack it into a biscuit cutter (if you've got it) or hand-pat the cakes so they're about 3" across and 1" high. Put them onto wax paper on a baking sheet, and toss them in the refrigerator for an hour to help them firm up.

Melt a little butter or oil in a skillet and fry them until golden brown on each side.

Take the claw meat with with the claws still attached and batter and fry them. Otherwise crab cakes, just on’t yuck them up with Old Bay. Apparently nobody outside with Gulf Coast knows about fried crab claws?

Raw crab (even marinated in something acidic) just sounds like a really good way to get a nasty bug. Those dudes eat garbage and live in estuaries where every city’s sewer system overflows.

I remember eating a lot of fried crab claw when I was a kid, vacationing on the gulf coast. it's like a fried treat with a handy handle. That said, if I've gotten lucky enough to get fresh blue crab these days, i generally do a crab boil or crab cakes because I don't have enough of them to really do a good mess of claws.

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.

Yeah, my current one is probably approaching 7-8 years. It's fine for most stuff but a whisk attachment and something that doesn't gas my entire apartment when making chili powder is why I'm considering an upgrade.

Anyone got a cheesecake instant pot recipe they like? I’ve made one twice now, and the texture is fine (a little more light and custardy this second time, perhaps overbeaten?) but despite the batter having that right sour tang, post cooking, it’s really muted. I like a cheesecake to have that sour, New York style tangy, creamy rich profile.

Anyone have any go to season salt with no sugar they prefer for chicken/pork/meat? I was using Johnny's Seasoning Salt for a while and it tasted fine, but the 2nd ingredient is sugar. Sugar is fine for bbq or whatever, but I don't need it on all meat I cook. The other issue I have with some seasoning salts is a lot of them put things in that tend to burn, I don't know if they expect you to put it on after you cook or what.

I don't actually know but:

I would guess that baking a cheesecake allows for some reduction of moisture that pressure cooking does not, thus intensifying flavor.

What's your recipe? You may be able to replace milk with a lesser volume of cream, or sub buttermilk for something, or something else.

Cream cheese
Sour cream
2 eggs
Cornstarch
Sugar
Pinch of salt
Vanilla

I even add lemon zest and a bit of juice this time. (Wonder if the juice affected the texture..? It was about a tablespoon)

Have you tried making your own? Aside from sugar the ingredients list salt, paprika, garlic, and "spices" which judging by the picture is flat parsley, allspice, and maybe onion powder. Buy those cheap little spice baggies from the Latino aisle, mix up to your preferred taste, then store in an empty pepper shaker or something.

Tesco does some really delicious slow roasted tomatoes and mozzarella that come in a convenient package that's enough for two meals (my goto is to have it with hummus, some olives, and pitta bread, it's really filling). I bought a bunch of different cheese though to have with these small meals so I don't want the mozzarella. I bought some on the vine tomatoes and would like to try my own hand at making slow roasted tomatoes. Any recipes you guys would suggest? The Tesco stuff comes in an olive oil and oregano (or something) drizzle and it's delicious, so I'd like to incorporate herbs into my homemade version too.

Smell test it but it's highly unlikely to go bad. If it smells bad or appears somewhat slimy, don't chance it.

Kimchi is designed for long term preservation and storage.

We just did tomatoes, 1/4 inch thick, olive oil and thyme. 325°F, flip after 30 minutes, remove when done (color change, not yet dry), about 45 minutes longer. Finish with salt and pepper. All you need really! Panini tonight with them.

The slow roasted tomatoes turned out great. I threw them into a mason jar and covered them with oil and stuck them in the fridge, but a few of the tomatoes keep floating up so a tiny bit of them sticks out into the air, is this alright? I also threw a bunch of chilli flakes into the oil. Will I be able to take spoonfuls out and use it to cook things with, cause the thought of throwing all this oil out kinda feels bad.

Even without submerging in oil these will last at least a week. Do you need them to last longer? Because you'll get the usual warnings of anaerobic killer botulism if you're trying to store long-term.

I'll be sure to eat a lot this coming week then. I was hoping to get at least 3 weeks cause I made a real large batch, but I'm not complaining. I love this poo poo.

Only thing I'm not happy with is they didn't dry up as nicely as I was hoping. They were still a bit wet, even after being in the oven for 2 1/2 hours at 140c. Should I cut them into quarters instead of halves next time?

Looks like I'm learning to make cajun fries, thanks.

So now:

The fries cook for 20 minutes at 450, but the chicken is, iirc, 20 minutes at 400. Is there anything I can do other than cooking them one after another?

Edit: nope, the chicken is 425 for 25.

I like 1/4 inch slices at 325°F / 162°C for ~ 90 minutes. Bonus they store and lay on sammies easier than halves.

When the light turns green, you go. When the light turns red, you stop. But what do you do when the light turns blue with orange and lavender spots?
I survived eating the fermented pepper sauce, and celebrated with a pack of boneless beef short ribs that were on sale.

I had planned to put in chili but all the recipes call for bone in, they should still work ?

And what would be a good way to cook a couple of them up to put in congee?

e: I made some incredible chinese short ribs with my instant pot and put it over the congee.

Next I'm going to do a more traditional flavor with blended vegetable gravy over polenta
