Why is creating soda ash difficult? One just bakes baking soda in the oven, right? Did you wear gloves when handling?

Doing the full amount in the recipe takes 2-5 hours. We only baked 30g and it still took like 2.5 hours to get to the right weight.

Started the noodles (https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2020/04/easy-ramen-noodles.html) last night, then tonight made a soup base from turkey stock made with thanksgiving's bones, dashi, miso, etc. Cooked some pork belly sous vide then crisped and glazed it in the bag juice, agave and soy sauce. Also started some soy eggs the other day for tonight. Had some mushrooms that needed to be used so sauteed them with some onion and seasoned with togarashi. Not exactly authentic, but tasted great. Mad props. Ramen at home including the noodles is some hardcore poo poo. Good job

mystes posted:Coincidentally I failed to make some bao last night (I think there was a mistake in the amount of flour in the recipe I was using and they were a bit too doughy after steaming). I used this recipe and it worked out OK, but the dough was very sticky and hard to work with. Not sure if that’s how it’s supposed to be but it worked out OK.

I made some vaguely bulgogi-ish tofu: It would have been nice with scallions and kimchi too but I was in a hurry! The pickles are from last week, just basic with the addition of some szechuan peppercorns and a little bit of star anise.

That tofu looks great. Is that a whole rear end cherry tomato on the sandwich, or just cut side down? Aloo shimla mirch ki sabzi, aka potato and green bell pepper still fry:

I, too, am preparing the ingredients for ramen. Including noodles, just baked some sodium bicarbonate in the oven to kitbash some kansui. I used the offcuts from the chashu cook to make chashu fried rice, as is appropriate. I’m approaching the point in my quarantine grocery cycle where the fresh veg is wither consumed or turning so I may be out of green onion when the ramen is ready.

I made braised chicken drumsticks with onions, mushrooms, capers, and carrots in a white wine sauce. Seasoned with garlic, lemongrass, thyme, rosemary, and lemon. I seasoned the chicken with salt pepper and ancho chili powder. It could have gone better. I should I used more lemon. The chicken skin wasn’t crispy enough because I smoked my basement apartment out and took it off early. The carrots were sliced a little big. It’s fine, whatever. It was fun to make! I’ve been watching poo poo loads of iron chef and chopped during quarantine. This is my first time braising and the recipe is based on like 3-4 I found online and random poo poo off my spice rack that sounded good. Oh and I tried to thicken the sauce with cornstarch but it didn’t work because ???? I’m not sure if I didn’t use enough or reduce for long enough or what. Was still soaked up great by bread.

THE MACHO MAN posted:this looks great, got a rundown of what you did?? Sure, lately I've been really enjoying tofu with various kind of sticky, thickish glaze-like sauces since it gets loss soggy and requires very little effort if I'm cooking for my wife and me in the middle of the day. It's kind of loosely adapted from Chris Morocco's soy glazed tofu recipe here. He has you pan-fry the tofu but I prefer to bake it before finishing it off in a pan, I think the texture is just a little more dense and hearty, but if you like a really nice dramatic crust you can follow him more closely. Basically I press it for a full hour then slice it thin enough that it's mostly surface area with enough depth to be a little chewy in the middle, then toss it with a little bit of salt, tamari or soy sauce, then toss it in the oven at 390-400 for fifteen minutes, then five more after being flipped. The sauce is a big healthy glob of gochujang, some gochugaru, about 1/2 tsp of brown sugar, and then whisk in water a little bit at a time until the sauce is thick without being viscuous. Then I dump everything into a pan with whatever neutral oil is out, heated enough so that the tofu immediately starts to sizzle a bit. If the sauce is still a bit runny I'll shake in a little corn-starch, otherwise I mix it all together with a pinch of ground szechuan peppercorn, spooning the sauce over the tofu as it thickens. This is pretty adaptable-- I've messed around with versions with adobo sauce, harissa, and Bryant Terry's pomegranate bbq sauce and I've been really happy with it every time.

Tonight I present a breaded chicken tender sandwich with honey mustard on my semi-pretzel roll, and coleslaw. I wanted both red and green cabbage, so I bought both, and now I have an ENORMOUS, HUGE, UNBELIEVABLE amount of shredded cabbage in my refrigerator. It fills a 2.5-gallon Hefty freezer bag. If anyone in the Detroit area wants fresh, pre-shredded cabbage, hit me up. Hell, you can have the rest of the dressing I made, too.

I also have an absolutely massive box of baking soda so the conversion wasn't exactly onerous. Don't have a pasta cutter so it's all going to be hand cut as well. Roghin' it!

I used to go to the movies at a little arthouse cinema and their popcorn nook always had a thing of curry powder, which was revelatory for me. When I make popcorn now I either go with curry powder or a few shakes of Tajin or whatever other brand of chile lime seasoning I have around.

I COULD order from Penzeys, but then I'd need to get like 5 other things for free shipping. When there's one right in town 15 minutes away but closed cuz of Everything. Dangit.
