Trying to think of other things to do with squid besides deep frying. They are tasty and cheap enough. Cleaning them is a hell of a biology lesson for kid#1.

I get squid tubes more often than a whole squid that needs to be cleaned, and one trick that should work with the tube part of a whole squid is to drop them in boiling water for 60 seconds. Drop them on top of a salad.

I made some temaki and it was surprisingly easy even without adding vinegar to the rice and just using imitation crab

the nori and perfectly Zojirushi neuro fuzzily cooked rice got me like 75% there in flavor and smell and texture to high quality stuff I've had and was honestly better than the average restaurant even on my second attempt

I got some dried "jiri" tiny anchovies, they just really stood out and I'm pretty sure I can mix it into sauce for pasta, which i always put canned anchovies or mackerel in. Any other ideas? This is the most exciting thing that I've found in my life in a while

Note I'm completely ignorant of kind of cooking and most eating east of Tehran and I don't have any equipment like a wok or similar.

sautee em with garlic, rice wine, soy sauce, sesame oil and either honey or gochujang (or both I guess) for a basic myeulchi bokkeum. Great on rice or mixed with fried shishtos (or similar) as a side

bought some pre-made Chinese five spice blend because last time I ground star anise my family complained that the house stunk for days.

whatever. I'm just trying to make delicious concoctions for you.

Made a boiled dinner tonight.

Took some discounted beef, cut it into large chunks, then simmered it for 2.5 hours or so. Had the water well salted and seasoned with thyme and rosemary. Then I added shallots, potatoes, and celery. Let it simmer for another hour.

The broth I strained and served as a first course, after putting it in the broiler for a bit with some croutons and cheese. The beef was tender and tasty and the veg was great as well.

Delicious. Really easy too.

those are some drat fine loaves

my wife asked for takeout for dinner but I protested and instead re-heated some pulled pork in the broiler, roasted some parboiled carrots, and re-heated day-old white rice in the microwave.

in the end she told me it was better than takeout if only because it saved us $45 or whatever dinner for two costs now. felt good.

I made this pulled pork recipe (maybe I got it from here?) with Chinese five spice blend and a honey/ginger/soy sauce/garlic marinade. it's a real hit.

next time a fried egg on top though.

do you happen to have the recipe for this still? even the most mediocre of pulled pork (the one I make) is still wayyyy better than most meat dishes to me, and this looks a cut above that.

for tonight's dinner I did something my Mexican family never does: added greens to the beans. i roasted a hefty amount of carrots and onions, added some recently-cooked beans and their juice, then finished it with a bunch of kale and simmered the resulting stew for 20 minutes. a nice change of pace after a lifetime of plain beans with crumbly cheese, or spicy beans with bacon.

I know this is going to sound super obvious to anyone who knows anything, but it's shocking how much better the results are when you get a quality cut of meat from a local butcher versus whatever is wrapped in plastic at the grocery store.

like even with cuts of meat that aren't fine in any sense and are typically meant for long slow roasting or braising, the difference is astounding.

I made the exact same pulled pork recipe two times and when I made it with a pork butt I bought at the farmers market, it was melting into its own fatty renderings by the fourth hour. when I made it with a grocery store pork butt it took way longer and even then I had to chop the pieces up with a chef's knife because it wasn't nearly as tender as it needed to be for shredding with forks.

thank you! I don't have a slow cooker either so that works for me

I made this caramel/chocolate/pecan tart because I just had too many leftover pecans and chocolate chips. The caramel was suprisingly easy and delicious, just a bunch of individually wrapped caramels and a splash of heavy whipping cream. I'll definitely incorporate that into some turtle brownies at some point. The crust had that pleasant combination of salt and nuttiness that all my favorite dark chocolates have, too

hell yeah eating less and better meat feels better as well as tastes better.
when I was living in the uk I’d often walk home and stop at a nice butchers to get something for dinner.

I found that the combination of rice noodles and fried chili oil can convince my brain I’m getting that meaty texture in a vegetable stirfry
