I picked up some pork ribs from Meijer earlier today, and I've got them marinating with some chipotle bacon seasoning and a bit of liquid smoke right now. I plan on throwing them on the grill later, but I've heard that when grilling them, it takes a fair amount of time. About how long will it take? I've heard about 90 minutes, or just an hour, but flipping them about every five minutes. I've got a gas grill; my current plan is to turn the heat to low, put the ribs on, and flip about every five minutes for roughly an hour. How wrong am I?

So I've been using some flat rice noodles and the package says to put noodles in a bowl and over with hot water to cook for like 12min. Every time I do this though a good portion of the noodles end up being stuck together as if super glued. What am I doing wrong or how should I be cooking them?

So I was at a wedding this weekend and at the end, there was loads of buffet food left over including approximately 1.5kg of chorizo, salami, Parma ham and a stunningly good air-dried sliced lamb. The couple getting married aren’t going to be in the country for a couple of weeks and I was one of the only people with a car, and I hate seeing food go to waste, so I’ve scavenged loads of leftovers, including all the meat and some low-tier wedding wine. I’m sure I can find a use for the wine, but does anyone have ideas of what to do with over a kilo of cheap but decent charcuterie?

Are you gently separating them while they are soaking or just leaving them? Sometimes the noodles are ‘stuck’ together in the packet and need moving about a bit as they soften.

Thinking of finally getting off my rear end and growing herbs like thyme and parsley at home instead of buying. Would it be worth it to start this late in the year (I'm in the California bay area) or should I just make a note to do it early next year?

The bay area has like an 11.75 month growing season. If it somehow gets cold, you can plant em in planters and bring em in for the night.

You ought to be fine starting them now if you're in the Bay Area. These are plants you want to plant in pots or small planters so you can bring them indoors during the winter, so if you get started now, you'll have nice healthy herbs going into the fall. My advice would be to get live plant starts instead of starting from seed, and make sure to get the plants from a decent nursery/garden shop. The little pots of herbs that you see in the produce section at the grocery are notoriously sickly and I've never seen one that thrived.

Thyme is a plant it once and you've got thyme forever deal unless you go out of your way to dig it up or something. Same with rosemary.

The summer heat (in SJ, different in SF obviously) kills everything so you end up with two growing seasons. The wet season in the winter kills plants by overwatering. I had a real hard time growing cilantro last year. Gotta start it early.

This weekend we made this ATK pad thai recipe which calls for drying out some shrimp in the microwave to replace the tiny dried shrimp commonly found in Thai cooking. It didn't really do much for the recipe, IMO. We picked up some shrimp paste at the store that I'd like to use instead when we make it next; my question is, at what point should we add it, and how much? I was thinking like a tablespoon, added around the time the scallion/garlic is cooked down. Any suggestions?

ineptmule posted:I’m working on it. Yeah. I'm salt sensitive as well, so I feel the pain. The best advice I can give is to freeze it and use it as seasoning meat for other dishes, and go light on the salt when you're making them. Things I'd use them in: Greens - when pressure-cooking a batch of kale or collards, I'd toss in ~50 to 100 grams of cured meat per kilo of greens along with my other spices to give them some richness and depth. Beans - Same sort of idea - about 100g to the kilo of soaked beans, and use a salt-free chicken or beef stock to boot. Frittatas / Omelettes - Chop some in along with the veggies when you whip it into the eggs

I’ve never used a pressure cooker, so I may be completely wrong about this, but I suspect this is one where you’d be better doing it in a regular pan: fry the meat on a low heat to tender out some of the fat, bloom your spice and possibly fry some onions before chucking in your greens to wilt them.

Anyone have a pulled pork instant pot recipe they like a lot? I was going to do the usual sugar + Worcestershire & spices that I used to do in a crockpot, but this recipe also looked pretty good: https://thesaltymarshmallow.com/instant-pot-pulled-pork/ I dont usually cube the pork when I did it with the crock but it looks pretty good? I have a 2.8lb 'petite pork shoulder roast' I got on sale. Also looking for good instant pot recipes for kale, this sounded quite good: https://www.cookwithmanali.com/instant-pot-kale-garlic-dal/ but I also enjoy them cooked like collard greens. Most recipes I saw were on vegan sites for just steamed kale (and it seemed dreadfully underseasoned) but that's not my jam. I eat just about everything so gimme whatcha like.

If you are sautéing them that is totally valid. I usually do my greens “southern style” which is more of a stewed process and results in really tender greens, especially for stuff like kale which can be really tough. The result is basically Appalachian Saag. 2 lbs of chopped greens (kale, collard, mustard, or turnip. Spinach gets too mushy, I’ve no real experience with beet greens) 3 oz of a seasoning meat (bacon, ham, sausage, whatever) 1 medium onion chopped 2 big cloves of garlic minced 1.5 cups of broth or stock (I use no salt added) 1.5 tsp cumin 2 tsp dried mustard 2 tsp flaked red pepper 1 tsp black pepper If it’s a fatty meat I start sautéing that without oil, if it’s lean I’ll add a little oil to help. Once it’s browned and rendered some I’ll toss in the onion and sauté until clarified. Then add garlic and spices until they’re fragrant. Deglaze the bottom of the pressure cooker with the broth, then add the greens. Lock the lid bring it to pressure for 20 minutes then let it cool naturally. If you’re doing it in a regular stockpot, it takes a few hours at a simmer, and you’ll need to add water a couple times to keep the liquid level up. You can also add in two cups of soaked black eye peas or hominy for the true Appalachian poverty experience. Just add an extra half cup of liquid.

I don't know if your shrimp paste is like the one I use but a tablespoon sounds like quite a lot unless you're cooking for maybe 3-4 people, it might make things very salty. I use it mostly in nasi goreng and for that I dry-fry it separately from the other ingredients until it's nice and crumbly, and I do this long before I plan on eating because it is very smelly, and it's not a good smell - it's kind of a 'low tide on a hot day' smelly. It's totally worth it though, because it tastes great Pookah fucked around with this message at 13:29 on Jul 16, 2019 |

Stringent posted:It's not just Appalachia, I'm from Piedmont North Carolina and greens, creamed rice and a pork chop/chicken thigh was a very standard meal for my family. For sure, this basic preparation of greens is sort of a pan-southern poor folk's food. I tend to associate it a lot with the Blue Ridge of Virginia, just because that's where I'm from - and, within my own lifespan, beans'n'greens served over crumbled cornbread was still a staple dish at least three nights a week. A lot of people laugh when I say I was pretty much a vegetarian as a kid, but culturally speaking, meat was almost more of a seasoning that added depth to otherwise vegetable dishes. I don't have any data to back it up, but I'd wager one of the biggest differentiations within "southern greens" isn't the overall method of preparation, but rather what kind of greens were used. We were heavy on Kale and Mustard greens, but I've got friends who lived in South Carolina and Georgia that have family recipes that leaned more heavily on collard and turnip greens.

I recently discovered jowl bacon at Walmart. It’s half the price of normal bacon at $3/lb and makes the perfect seasoning meat. I slice it thick and freeze the slices and so it’s easy to just grab a few slices to throw in a pot instead of a whole ham hock or whatever. I’m from south Alabama and it’s mostly collards and turnip greens here (and no cumin or garlic! Which I’m sure is good, I’ve just not had them that way) and mustard greens when they’re in season in the winter. We never heard of kale until like 5 years ago. Mustard greens are by far my favorite, followed by turnip greens. I use frozen turnip greens a lot and they seem much more tender than fresh, and no dirt. Summer tends to be more of the thousand kinds of peas (purple hull are the best) and fresh butter beans and squash than greens. Why isn’t there a southern food thread?
