L-l-look at you bar-bartender, a-a pa-pathetic creature of meat and bone, un-underestimating my l-l-liver's ability to metab-meTABolize t-toxins. How can you p-poison a perfect, immortal alcohOLIC?

9 calories per serving is basically adding textured air to your meal. That's not pasta, it's pretending to be food.

It's konnyaku, it's popular in Japan and parts of China. Made from a starch powder of some weird flower root. People eat it for the weird rubbery texture but also has the benefit of being essentially zero calorie since it can't be digested.

I seriously have yet to experience this fish stink. The texture is more like meat.

Konnyaku is flavorless so it often has seaweed added to it to give it something, that's where the fishiness comes from. That's the more greenish-gray kind, the white kind doesn't have any additives.

One more "don't waste anything" recipe from 1936




There are more recipes that are unusual, but I'm not sure whether they fit this thread - things like sea moss blanc mange, sauteed cucumbers, spaghetti souffle, peas-and-lettuce - is there another thread where they'd go better, or should I put them here?

So you're saying that if I oversalt something I can just add a bit of sugar to nullify it?

It can help some, but generally no. It's more that if you are serving something salty, such as say an oyster, you can use sweet elements to balance it out.

The trick i know that helps if you oversalt something is to add some potatoes to it. They suck up some of the salt. It wouldn't work with like a salad but it works with soups/stews/sauces and it only works kinda well.

Continue adding potatoes until desired result is achieved.

Years ago when I moved out of my parents house my Grandmother gave me a wonderful gift. She knew I liked to cook so she gave me a beautiful, Collector's Edition book:



With over 1600 "kitchen tested" recipes its full of wonderful things. For your sake I've opened it to an arbitrary page and selected the two most wonderful items on there:




What could be better than cornish game hens microwaved for 45 minutes while coated in a mix of cinnamon-sugar and french onion soup mix?

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME loving BRANDING, AMERICA!? I really want to see the worlds best chefs try and make something good/passable from lovely name brand food kits/products.

Can imagine this cheese never melting in, just sitting there sweating. Sweaty-mac becomes an overnight sensation in Kansas or some poo poo.

I need to know what the turkey curry recipe is, because you know a cookbook with such powerful boomer energy would never use a Terrorism Spice like curry powder.

Amazingly enough it calls for an entire tablespoon of it! Only the best for your cubes of BUTTERBALL turkey

I'm actually kind of surprised they make you cook the sauce instead of buying Name Brand (tm) Jarred Bear sauce or whatever. Still sounds kind of gross though.

It's just toast cut corner to corner instead of side to side, with the crusts removed before toasting.

French onion soup mix is incredibly versitile actually. One of my only dinners I ate when I first moved out on my own was beef roast with a can of coke and a pack of french onion soup mix in the slow cooker.
