I made cacio e pepe tonight. Never tried to make it before. I know it's notoriously tricky but I wanted a challenge. It ended up working out alright. I think I used a bit too much pepper but the sauce actually emulsified and which is the hard part. It wasn't behaving at first, but I decided to ditch the utensil I was stirring with just toss it and it just started to work. E: I made it again and improved. Except for tossing half of it out of the pan and onto my shoes. Dog was appreciative. Resting Lich Face fucked around with this message at 02:43 on Feb 19, 2020 |

I was too but when we got new carpets a few years ago my wife insisted we go shoeless (well, wear house shoes/slippers) inside, and now wearing shoes inside feels barbaric.

Goons over the years made me think that Japanese Kewpie mayo was amazing so I finally bought some and it's meh. It's closer to miracle whip but not as bad. I'll stick to homemade 2 minute method mayo. Fuckin goons

Also I just realized part of Kewpie's allure is the rich yolks but I buy pasture raised bug eating chicken eggs so that's pretty much what i expect now so maybe I'm just a snob. Fine have your stupid mayo. Also dino I'm not high! I'm at work you silly. Croatoan fucked around with this message at 16:23 on Feb 20, 2020 |

Kewpie mayo is perfect on top of okonomiyaki, which I make just often enough to keep a bottle in the fridge. Other than that yeah, it's too sweet and nowhere near as good as homemade. And I grew up in a miracle whip household. Mom still makes coleslaw with miracle whip, sugar, and celery seed and I can't bring myself to hate it.

SymmetryrtemmyS posted:Oh hey yeah it's about okonomiyaki time isn't it I've been using some sort of korean (I think) veggie pancake mix that I just add water to. Although I also add dashi powder and sometimes start by rehydrating dried shiitakes and using the liquid for that in the pancake mix (along with the shiitakes of course). Last time I made them, I had no okonomiyaki sauce, so I mixed up some hoisin sauce, l&p and a touch of soy. And frankly I think I liked it better than the okonomiyaki sauce. So topped with that, kewpie mayo, nori flakes and bonito flakes.

As a southerner (and therefore mayonnaise expert) Dukes is fine but overhyped. Hellman’s is the best off the shelf mayo imo.

My local grocery store started carrying Dukes a few months back, and I wanted to try it because of the hype. It tastes pretty much just like Hellman's to me? So now I just buy whatever one is on sale

I usually have a jar in the fridge because it lasts for effing ever and home made only lasts a week or so before I get skeeved out. I'm sure that's more that I store it in tupperware but whatever. Store bought is still largely trash though.

Mayo chat: Hellman's is the gold standard, but the Restaurant Depot store-brand mayo is very good value in terms of quality/price. But the only mayo I ever liked as much as Hellman's is definitely Sir Kennsingtons. They have a really good vegan mayo, too.

I buy Sir Kensington's solely because of the entertainment I got from that one Condiment Expert thing on Epicurious so their PR there definitely worked on me

I grew up in a Hellmann's household and it was the gold standard for me, but having lived in the south for a dozen years now, I'm a Duke's man through and through. It's just a lot more pleasantly tangier than Hellmann's, which is absolutely still a top-tier mayo but just nudged down into second place.

I keep Hellman's and Kewpie around. And I make my own mayo when appropriate. Mayo is delicious and people who act like it's gross are food babbies who should be shunned.

I love mayo, I love ranch powder as a seasoning, I love buttermilk. But somehow I just can't bring myself to enjoy ranch dressing. It is always too sweet and weirds me out, or at best I just wish it were blue cheese dressing instead. Like it's literally my one food ick. Chicken feet? Century eggs? 140f sous vide chicken? durian? I'm happy to eat any of these, but ranch dressing I just can't do. idgi

Any ranch in a bottle I find is kinda gross, but I love making fresh stuff, even just with Hidden Valley seasoning packets.
