What kind of blender do you use for the emulsification? I’ve always made coarse sausage and wouldn’t know where to begin making a paste.

Yeah I don’t, I use a food processor and do it in small batches. Typing “blend” was a misnomer. But you have to purée that poo poo in the food processor forever while adding ice to keep it cool.

There's roughly 4 names I trust from SE:

Kenji, Daniel, Sohla (now at BA), and Stella.

Anyone else and there's a solid chance the recipe is fundamentally broken. Even more so if the recipe is older than 2014ish.

Kenji's risotto recipe is so good but then he folds whipped cream into it at the end. Guy can't help himself.

His cassoulet's great but I think the piece he's missing is that it should be cooked in a dutch oven lid on under a broiler. Unfortunately my broiler is broken so I can't prove it.

I will go to my grave saying that Kenjis' vegan risotto (using miso and sake) is better than most 'standard' risottos, up to and including his regular one. It's so loving stupid good and I could eat it like six days a week for a year and never get tired (the one day off is the 24 hours straight I spend sleeping from my all-risotto diet)

You can get a weed torch for like 20 bucks, attach that bad boy to a full size propane tank and broil everything forever. And organic weed control.

that's just going back to their roots, when A Hamburger Today, Slice, and all the others had local writers in many cities doing reviews and restaurant writing. honestly, that's as much what SE was founded on as recipes/cooking content. (then they brought in some big "consultant" and got rid of all local verticals and forums)

I don't particularly care about those cities they're covering right now, but in general you can trust their writers for that kind of coverage. and I believe the "sponsored" stuff really doesn't affect the content much on this one, except maybe they can only list places that accept credit cards? I dunno

Cranberries were a staple for the native populations before European colonists arrived, and they were associated with the Pilgrim diet as far back as the earliest written records of the Pilgrim diet, which are from the mid-17th Century, around a century before George Washington issued the first National Thanksgiving Proclamation.

In the bog

I saw a creature, naked, bestial,

Who, squatting upon the ground,

Held his cran in his hands,

And ate of it.

I said, “Is it good, friend?”

“It is bitter—bitter,” he answered;

“But I like it

“Because it is bitter,

“And because it is my cranberry ”

Like SubG mentioned, cranberry consumption goes way back. It is a fruit native to the northern US alongside blueberries. In late fall in Massachusetts, cranberries are ready to eat. Seems a natural fit with Thanksgiving imo

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

Don't forget they were made much more palatable in the 17th century when we had cheap sugar being imported from the Caribbean where it was literally more efficient to work slaves to death rather than treat their medical needs.

yeah i don't doubt natives ate the things. I've been baffled since childhood that cranberry sauce is served with thanksgiving dinner, though. Like, even as someone who's been familiar with it for as long as I remember, it makes so little sense. It doesn't work with anything else on the table, IMO, and I've never understood why it has persisted for 250 years.

There was probably hardtack and deer liver and weird little bitter gourds and poo poo on pilgrims' tables. Why was cranberry a better survivor?

And I didn't realize that sugar was so plentiful so early in new-world history. I know that cranberries as we know them are like 2 parts sugar to 1 part cranberry. I wonder how natives prepared them before colonists came along.


I bumbled across this
https://www.smithsonianmag.com/arts-culture/this-man-made-the-first-canned-cranberry-sauce-180947862/

It's not super informative, but it at least explains where the corrugated cranberry log-in-a-can came from (the 1940s when everything was getting the can treatment)

they're actually not bad when very ripe and fresh. don't get me wrong, they're still tart as hell but they're edible, especially as an ingredient in a larger dish

You don't see how a sweet, tart, acidic, cold side works alongside hot roasted meat, buttery mashed potatoes, and thick savory gravy?

It's a great palate-cleanser for everything on the rest of the plate.
