Apparently Olivia Wilde has some amazing recipe for salad dressing, one so good that when she made a salad to take to her new lover Harry Styles, her boyfriend Jason Sudeikis laid down in front of her car to prevent her from leaving with it https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11299523/Jason-Sudeikis-tried-prevent-Olivia-Wilde-seeing-Harry-Styles-fight.html

In my experience a cabbage salad kind of thing does wilt a little bit after dressing it, but maybe that's because I'm usually salting it a bit. It's definitely not a lot and pretty delicious for a while afterwards and doesn't wilt much more after the first day or so. I find it to taste best when it's fresh, but it's still good afterward. I like doing it super thin.

God bless Costco. Rotisserie chicken still $5. Bigass pumpkin pie still $6. A dozen croissants for $6. Hot dog and coke still $1.50. Chicken thighs $1.69 a pound. 18” pizza still $10 At first when it was announced they would start owning their own farms I didn’t see the point but now because they own the farms they can mitigate inflation

So a buddy gave me about 12 habaneros, which seems like too few for hot sauce, but exactly the right about for a nice big batch of mango habanero jam. Does anyone have a go to recipe? I'm seeing recipes calling for anywhere between 1-4 peppers per 2 mangos, which seems like a hell of a variation in spice levels.

Can't help with the jam but you can make a great wing sauce out of that many peppers, if you were looking for uses.

I'm kind of committed to the jam now, what with the buying of stuff and promises to share the bounty. I guess one habanero per jar might be the way to go? Its been forever since I've used them for anything. All the mango and sugar should cut the spice, but I still want to it be a very enthusiastic good morning to anyone putting it on their toast.

You're going to slice the habs before adding them to the vinegar, sugar, pectin, and whatever else you're using to make the jam, right? Taste a slice or two. Or just the leftover flesh you're left with on the stem end after cutting them. Me, I wouldn't go under four or five habs per ~1 1/2 cups of vinegar myself, and usually go more around 10-12, but I like hot things. If you don't like hot things (and for some reason are still making hab jelly) then use less. There's no magical "right" number here.

Yeah I think I'm just going to have to taste as the jam heats up and figure it out from there. Lord knows what all that sugar, mango, heat and pressure is going to end up doing to the spice levels but I guess we'll find out. I wonder if chili peppers are high in pectin

Another Sunday, another day of cooking. Chocolate chip banana bread, potato curry, Chinese-inspired potato salad, kimchi fried rice, spicy chickpeas and a couple of boiled eggs.

I did most of my weekend cooking yesterday to get some meals prepped and in the freezer. Black beans & rice, roasted veggies, and some microwave cobbler I spent too much time and energy figuring out. Today I just made a loaf of bread in the bread machine and chilled.

The ritualistic dancing to herald new life born forth by spring, chanting to our gods to pray for harvest, only drinking meal replacement shakes on Sundays. These are our ways, learning them is a way to honour your ancestors.

I just made a steamed pudding for the first time. Ginger. Absolutely delicious and extremely easy recipe (to make the batter just throw everything into the food processor). It was GF but I’d never have known had I not made it - very light and fluffy. I added a bit of extra stem ginger. It didn’t have quite enough sticky moist bits on top but other than that was excellent. For a first attempt I was very pleased (with it and myself). This was the recipe. https://recipeland.com/recipe/v/steamed-golden-syrup-pudding-gl-56645

I hadn’t thought of lemon curd though, which is a masterstroke. Do you just use shop-bought and put a few spoons in the base of the basin? Speaking of easy and cheap puddings, do you ever make rice pudding? Really delicious, especially with a bit of cinnamon, saffron and lemon zest.

I really started making steamed puddings as a way to use up eggs, the chickens lay more than we can eat, and I don’t like my neighbours enough to give them any. The recipe I used was very similar. I loved how easy it was: weigh ingredients, chuck them into the magimix, mix for a few seconds and pour into the basin. I’d totally used shop curd too; it’s meant to be easy. Like if I make lasagne now it’s such a loving faff that I use readymade tomato sauce. Steamed pudding is good enough to serve to guests, I reckon, and because of the steaming time works really well as one can make it in advance. Happily my son LOVES rice pudding. He loves most food, but RP is definitely among his favourites. Are you sure it’s too late?
