Is there such a thing as a dine packed in mustard that tastes remotely like mustard? Or at least one where you don't feel like the better option is just to rinse off the watery yellow muck and eat it plain?

Having a tin of Coleman's mustard powder on hand is mandatory for fixing cheaper dines. And also for everything else because it is delicious.

^ dumping some mustard powder in with some Dijon always tastes good anyway.

I know some English people like to have cheese with their fish, usually slices of fairly firm yellow cheese (the exact ones escape me at the moment, as I have merely witnessed this rather than partaken of it).

GOOD MORNING
The other weekend I was like gently caress it and made the fishermans eggs for lunch (again). It was bomb, you just take what you have, throw it in that oiled up tiny cast iron skillet and next thing you know its late lunch on a Saturday and you didnt have enough for breakfast so its super hittin' the spot. Dump a bunch of Sambal Oolek on it with a wheat toast heel and all of a sudden you have the strength to get back out there and do whatever you need to do.

What's the diff between sambal and sriracha?

Sambal's thicker, almost a paste usually. Also has some shrimp paste and ginger as ingredients

Huh. I'd say it's thinner, but it's spicier and has red pepper flakes in it.

Like if I spoon it out onto something it will drip down but sriracha keeps it's shape. It's more of a paste.

I greatly prefer sambal oolek over Sriracha for my dine/avocado/spicy stuff/on cracker thing that I eat literally every day. the sambal olek gives better heat

i haven't made fisherman's eggs in forever so I think that will be my thing for tomorrow. gently caress yeah.

It varies depending on which sambal you're referring to though. I think there's hundreds of regional varieties.

The tracks go off in this direction.
Sambal is more like a thick salsa whereas Sriracha has the consistency of ketchup. Sriracha also has a sweeter heat.

it's really nice to be able to eat all these delicious fishes before they go extinct. I've been really enjoying canned eel, I even like it more than sardines at this point bc it's got more spine

Note of caution: It has very little resemblance to fish, and is more a salt delivery vehicle.

It's pretty nice on hot fluffy rice or as part of other cooking tho:

It actually looks pretty tasty, but I can say with conviction I'm very unlikely to ever eat fish from China that, according to the comments was then pulled off the shelves in China for contamination....

I might start experimenting with black beans and 'dines though.

Mackerel in black bean sauce comes in small sardine-size cans and looks pretty similar, but no bones. I like it but oddly I don't get hungry for it very often.

I ate one of these big snails before but I forgot I ate it until I saw a video today



The video

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YR6s-x2KZk

If you wanted to make it but didn't have a giant snail you could use octopus tentacle or maybe squid to get something similar, although the snail had a sweet flavor to it that octopus and squid don't

She got other videos, lotta seafood stuff, if you want to make weird food in a way which you aren't accustomed to

Picked up some frozen sardines at the asian grocery store (and silverfish). Never had them non-canned before, but presumably theyll be better, though maybe annoying to prepare.

I'm thinking I might just scale and remove heads, thwn cook them for a long while to soften the bones, split open and remove them like Id do with canned, and stick them in a slow cooking japanese style curry.

Okay

The ones I had were about seven or eight inches long and I was feeding them to other people and didn't want to risk bad gut tastes so I gutted them, don't know if it was necessary

I left the heads on

What up dine bros, long time no chat.

Went to World Market the other day and they had the Season Savories sardine salad kits, and being a cool dad sardine eating dude, I picked up one.
I got the Sweet & Spicy one and you know what? It was alright!
The sardines were the flaky boneless kind, and you could taste a little bit of the smokiness under the sauce, which was more sweet than spicy. The crackers were kind of bland though, they were brown rice, but triscuits or Ritz would have been better.

I ate them with a lukewarm Budweiser and an old Doug Stanhope special in a hotel room. 8/10, would enjoy again.

Gutted and scaled the sardines, removed the head/tail/fin, and boiled them for a bit, then plucked them out and was able to pull the spines right out. Easy as removing them from canned sardines. The curry is still cooking but is smelling good.

E: it is delicious. The remaining bones arent even noticeable and it is excellent.

That giant snail looked super good, so I watched the horseshoe crab one thinking I might be pleasantly surprised.

loving NOPE. I keep an open mind with food but I got my white boy xenophobic limits, and the inside of that crab is where I draw the line.
