i posted a good eating thread but i didn't know that there was this one already. many thanks to the kind yobber who directed me here :)

heres some stuff i made this week-

i made this thai steak salad. it was from a recipe on the food lab which is a good site to get recipes from, especially if u like reading about the scienc behind ur food and what the tastiest science to use is. for this one ill just post the link



i bought to much of everything tho, so i embarked on a mental quest for recipes to use up the ingredients

first i made a panzanella. its pretty simple to do, and is a great thing to eat if ur really high b ut trying to stay healthy, it hits all the key "im high" flavor points

chop up some good ripe tomatoes, sprinkle some salt on them and put in a bowl. cut some crusty bread up into cubes and toss them with olive oil, then put them in the toaster oven til gold and nice and crispy. while those are toasting, chop up some garlic and shallots (or just onions if thats what you have) and mix them up with some olive oil and red wine vinegar, and salt and pepper. chop up some basil too. u want to have about an equal volume of bread and tomatoes, and enough liquid to coat the bread real good. i made 1/2 cup of dressing for about a pound of tomatoes and 3 thick slices of toast.

now u mix everything together, and here is the important part, leave it alone for a whole half hour! yes for that long, u can smoke another lil bowl while u wait. i know what ur thinking, its "dqoa the bread will get soggy" but no thats why u toasted it bicch :8): if u do this perfectly as i have said u get a soft outer layer of flavored bread with a warm and toasty core, its great.



even this didnt use up all the leftover steak i made so later ill post a fritatta i made maybe

I have no idea what the hardcore cooking folks think of food wishes, but to me it's nearly always interesting to watch and usually makes me hungry for whatever he's cooking.

I also once made a pizza topped with lemon slices. I dunno, it sounded exotic. it tasted like total crap, seriously this was a tragic waste of pizza dough. maybe (probably) I hosed it up somehow but yikes.

mostly I use them in soups, stews, tagines, and fish en papillote. they’re good blitzed into salad dressing too though. I have a goofy post in this thread about making em, I use a slow method that doesn’t involve brining though.

i imagine you can put preserved lemon slices or even meyer lemon slices on zaa but maybe I’d do that for like a flatbread with lox, shallots, and capers and not for a peperony and chease.

ah yes tagines are v good I will not succumb to acquisitiveness and buy an actual tagine but maybe I will make a tagine soon

google gives me a recipe for "shrimp and vegetable tagine with preserved lemon" this sounds good to me

I’m a big fan of perfect pantry’s chicken and olives with preserved lemon tagine

by big fan I mean I’ve totally changed large parts of the recipe over the years and no longer refer directly to it, having integrated the concept of the dish directly into my flesh

e: i missed my chance to make hoshigaki this winter but I will not be fooled again

I am curious, have you (or anyone else reading) ever made couscous the "real" way, as opposed to the instant stuff? like steaming it three times or whatever?

I have never gone to the effort but people who write these recipes keep going "omg proper couscous is amazing"

I have a recipe for a sicilian fish couscous that looks like a ton of work but I have always wondered

if u slice em razor thin and just use salt, olive oil, and a couple white cheeses (i like a hard cheese and a sort for the different melts) and some fresh herbs it can be p good. preserved lemon can help since it’s drier (kinda) but then u gotta lose any added salt

yeah I think the recipe I was working with (and this was a long time ago) failed to specify the cheese part and that seems like it could improve things a ton. I sliced 'em p thin but I suspect as you say the thinner the better. but another factor is, I think, high quality lemons is important, and I think the ones I used long ago weren't really top shelf.

heres the frittata I made a couple days ago. originally it was to use up the steak but the. i realized that I had some frozen stuff in my freezer that needed to be used soon so it became a steak and crawfish and random veggies frittata



due to the other stuff i defrosted, i decided its time to make red beans and rice! I can do a post with my recipe if anyones interested- im from New Orleans so im pretty into RBR but i also lived away from the city for many years so i have devised the substitutions when u gotta make it without the real deal sausages and stuff. I don’t wanna post too much for the thread tho so if u want me to post that please tell me :)

man ive always wanted to try shakshuka but for some reason i keep putting it off. if you dont add the egg at the end, does the sauce save well at all? im mostly cooking for 1 rn and i lost my little novelty 1 serving cast iron in a move which would have been the perf shakshuka pan. yours looks really good and might inspire me to make some next week tho!

This case of an intraperitoneal zucchini is unusual, and does raise questions as to how hard one has to push a blunt vegetable to perforate the rectum.
Yeah it's a tomato sauce dude, it'll be better reheated tbh.

yeah youre right, im sure it would be fine. the shakshuka ive had before usually has eggplant which i like a lot but have had back luck reheating, but obvs there are recipes without the ol purple ones so i should try those!

Eggplant reheats great provided you cooked it enough in the first place. If it's got texture to it it's gonna be rubbery when reheated (especially if you nuke it) but if you cook it down, like in an eggplant parm, it'll reheat beautifully.

what tastes good with an almost overwhelmingly large bitter almond flavor because I have a project I need help with

Acidic ingredients in a dish help counter bitterness.

Uhmm... I mean maybe? What is this almond thing you have?

If it's a liqueur or something look at cocktail recipes or maybe baking ideas.

not totally sure but this seems like some dark humor in which case, mix it with the trash which is where you should put it

I found your post and also some online recipes, and started a batch since I had some extra lemons handy. not enough to fill the jar I had for the purpose though, so I did end up making a brine, maybe that will adversely affect the final product, I dunno

I guess we'll see

I haven’t tried doing it and as far as I know I’ve never eaten freshly made couscous. in theory it should be simple, but in practice I’m willing to bet it’s a challenge. I’ve never seen anyone do it either. sometimes I think about trying it but then I forget!

I don’t imagine it’ll hurt. if you think the brine is getting too cloudy at any point, add some more salt. :eng101:

I made a lot of stuff last week but this week has been slow... not feeling too well. I wanted to try doing cochinita pibil with shiokoji but idk. maybe tomorrow.
