I have a 20 oz angus sirloin waiting, but I'm out of potatoes. What should I serve it with? I've got shallots, red onions, chickpeas, rice, kidney beans and barley.

Psychobabble posted:I'm going to go with food processor. Using a mixer is going to incorporate more air which will make it rise higher and crack more. I use my mixer to make cheesecake and this isn't ever a problem if you cook it right. I don't have a food processor big enough to handle an entire cheesecake worth of stuff though.

Barley or rice with the caramelised onions stirred through. Probably rice. Whenever I mix cooked veg like that (eg roasted with Harissa) with a grain (quinoa, barley, bulgur etc) I like to soak up the oil from the pan with some of the cooked grain so it picks up all that flavour as well as the lovely unctuousness.

If you cook your cheesecake low and slow and cool it slowly, cracking shouldn't happen. I use one of those paddles that scrapes the sides in my mixer, and it's awesome because it brings the ingredients together much more quickly, limiting how much air gets whipped in.

Doh004 posted:It wouldn't be proper grilling without this happening. Grill every vegetable. Grilled brussesls sprouts, grilled fennel, grilled romaine, whatever, just grill vegetables all the time. Also grill fruits for dessert and serve with greek yogurt sweetened with honey and with a little lemon zest; change it up depending on the fruit. Grilling is the best thing.

Edit: It's excellent, I caramelized the onions in a nutty browned butter, it's so good. Edit: Meal consumed. I added some carrots sautéed in butter to the rice. It was A+++ would eat again.

Salmon is best with a gastrique of some sort(I like blackberry), or a sweet chutney(I like mango)

Or with greek yogurt thinned out with lemon juice and mixed with a ton of chopped fresh dill. I think my last few posts are starting to betray the fact that I use greek yogurt to make a poo poo ton of sauces for various thing.

I use greek yogurt a lot too. I keep it on hand to add to oats or smoothies at breakfast. Sometimes for meals I use it as a dressing, adding lemon or lime, spices like cumin, and herbs. Good for curries, dals, soups, stews, flat bread wraps etc.

astoundingly amazing, I can't even put it into words how good (and varied) the hawker food is. I've had 8 different dishes I'd never heard of before, they've all been amazing, and I've only been here a day. the price of alcohol though ![]() hi would you like to buy a 750ml bottle of woodbridge chardonnay for $35? in a supermarket? ![]() ![]() ![]()

The food is solid and they have that place set up so that every employee either knows or can easily look up absolutely anything about any dish they prepare. They also have a well-thought-out wine list with lots of stuff by the glass.

Know folk in South NJ who hated all the food on their trip to Italy, because "It's not authentic like the Olive Garden." For the sake of the USA, I hope they never travel again.
