Big oil doesn’t want you to know this but you can cut motor oil with bacon grease (stay below a 4:1 ratio if the overnight temp might drop below 65, otherwise 3:1 is fine)

How much grease and waste oil are y’all generating anyway? It takes me several months to fill a soda can with waste oil.

I don’t make much bacon (though BLT season was great this year) so I just keep mine in a little glass Tupperware in the fridge. I use it to make my refried beans mostly

It takes me several months to fill a soda can with waste oil. i cook with it enough where i'm always desperate for some, but i drastically cut back on the amount of bacon i bought after bidenflation. i probably buy two pounds a year now i forgot about salad dressings. if you split it 50/50 with olive oil it makes a fantastic vinaigrette

It takes me several months to fill a soda can with waste oil. i never deep fried stuff because i didnt want to have to dispose of so much oil then one day i realized its not that dirty and now i fry chicken in oil then i save the oil in a jar and fry stuff like tofu for stirfry in that and use the bits of cooked flour for gumbo which i need to start on soon now that its getting cold enough for soup maybe the solution is to change the order in which you fry - cook fish with reused oil from frying tofu rather than the other way around i am harry has issued a correction as of 05:58 on Sep 29, 2023 |

Got a pan with some oil in it? Have some rendered fat from cooking? Remaining oil from other frying? Caramelize onions.

i dont do a lot of deep frying or bacon-grease frying because the recipes we like most can be done pan-fried or baked. keeping that much grease around for non-consistent recipes just doesn't make sense, even though we also eat bacon sometimes

Only quality first run oil for me Mostly it is due to how infrequently I fry foods, by the time I’d get to reusing oil it would definitely be stale and impart an old taste to the food

currently scheming on some piroshky filling ideas. I'm thinking of doing caramelized onions with diced boiled potatoes and grated cheddar cheese with some sort of garlic/paprika spice blend.

I like to keep it classic with ground beef, bacon, onion, and cabbage. Feel free to omit the beef and substitute more bacon. As much as I like sauerkraut I feel like the meatless ones are a cheat tbh

these are a Special Request from my wife who is mostly vegetarian. I'll probably make another batch for me with ground beef and cabbage.

I have a bunch of tomatoes I don’t think will ripen in time as the days get shorter and the cool rainy weather moves in. To that end, I want to try fried green tomatoes which I’ve never made, with a remoulade (also never made). Been reading various online recipes and it seems pretty easy, but wondering if the smart folks in here have any suggestions

put them on a shelf somewhere with normal room temperatures, maybe in a paper bag. they will ripen. not, like, well, but they'll ripen I pick all my green tomatoes right before the frost and I usually have slowly ripening tomatoes for sandwiches over the coarse of two months or so

I made it a couple years ago for similar reasons.

if one has space the entire plant can be uprooted and left somewhere it doesn’t freeze and they’ll continue to vine ripen.

If it's time to cook and I don't know what I want to have when I'm done, I start by caramelizing an onion. You have to start figuring out what you're doing pretty quickly if things are already on the stove.
