What would be a good alternative to Rapini? I don't think most stores (if any) carry it and I got a recipe that calls for it.

You can put whatever the gently caress you want on pizza, so yeah, broccoli would work. Or any vegetable would work, basically, as long as it will cook in about the same amount of time.

Well I know but I was curious as per taste wise if there is any alternatives, I never even heard of Rapini until today.

It tastes like broccoli, more or less - a bit milder maybe.

Is bruschetta (toast with tomato/basil/parmesan on top) meant to be served warm or cold?

I keep coming across various japanese recipes that request using both white and regular japanese soy sauce. Is there a substitute I could use for white soy or shirojoyu? The only place I could find it is on amazon for 24 bucks for 12 ounces which seems crazy expensive.

SubG posted:Unless you're trying to pass a culinary class or impress your Italian girlfriend's nonna, if it's warm it's bruschetta and if it's cold it's crostini. "Bruschetta" also only refers to the grilled oiled bread rubbed with garlic. There are many other toppings other than the ubiquitous tomato one. I'm sure you knew this subg, so I'm not really saying it to you but for others, I guess. I dunno, the tomato bruschetta is like, the boringest of toppings, idg why it's like the most popular of all.

I'm looking up recipes for empanadas and need some advice about spices. One recipe uses a 1/2 lb of ground beef and 1 tablespoon each of cumin, paprika, capers and parsley. Another recipe uses 2 lb of ground beef and 1 teaspoon each of cumin and paprika. At the moment I'm leaning towards the ratios of the first recipe more than the second but can anyone suggest if that seems like the right amount of spice for empanada filling? Or if anyone has their own recipe they can post that'd be appreciated, too.

Nearly every similar dish I cook is about 500g meat (that's about 1lb right?), for that amount of meat I usually use 1 teaspoon cumin, and would use 1/2- 1 teaspoon paprika if I was using it. I'd go 1T of capers and 2T of parsley if I was using it at all, not worth bothering about them if you use them in smaller quantities than that anyway.

Yeah, 500g is about 1lb. I'll try 1tsp of spice per 500g and see how it goes. I can always add more spice to taste if needed.

Mr. Squishy posted:What risotto can I make with beef stock? You can make beef flavored risotto Idk, use mushrooms or spinach or anchovies or idk. If you're using storebought stock, it's gonna be so light in flavor you can do anything. If it is homemade stock, I would just do some nice shrooms or something in there. Edit: Also cut out like 12 oz worth of stock and sub in dry vermouth. Your mouth will thank me. Casu Marzu fucked around with this message at 14:04 on Oct 24, 2013 |

Just add fish sauce Casu Marzu posted:You can make beef flavored risotto Spinach and mushroom risotto is one of my favourites for a veggie meal, but I usually use chicken stock. Beef stock would go well with the mushrooms, but I haven't tried it. Good tip with the vermouth, I've often thought about using a dry sherry instead of white wine. I don't think I'll ever have any vermouth in this house though. Dry sherry just as recommended? Fo3 fucked around with this message at 14:10 on Oct 24, 2013 |

I've wanted to make owl cookies forever, and Halloween finally gives me that excuse. I was thinking about cutting out the cookies, and then putting a couple sticks at the base of each for an "owl sitting on a branch" effect. I haven't done much cookie baking however and don't know if the pretzel will char or something in the process.

I am going to be preparing a "Friendsgiving" meal in a couple of weeks. My husband is wanting to do a test run of frying a turkey, so we are going to invite all of our friends for an early holiday celebration. I am usually in charge of cooking thanksgiving dinner and have no problem producing traditional dishes, but I think we would like to go with more unconventional side dishes and desserts since I know I for one am tired of the same thing by the end of holiday season. So, how about it goons, what are your non traditional thanksgiving recipes?

So, how about it goons, what are your non traditional thanksgiving recipes? Well for squash, I like to roast acorn squash with Olive Oil and Kosher Salt. But other than that here are some other things to try: Langos: http://easteuropeanfood.about.com/od/hungarianbreads/r/langos.htm For stuffing what about Chorizo Cornbread stuffing? And Cranberry and Onion Confit with something to put it on?

Other squash idea that I like to do is to stuff the cavity with toasted breadcubes and nuts rolled in melted butter, brown sugar, and stuff like cinammon and mace and cloves. Roast uncovered at 350 until tender, like 30 minutes for both halves of one squash.

What ages in that eggnog that affects the flavor? I'm a little unclear as to what the aging process would actually do to it. Also, that's a LOT of alcohol. Hot drat. I'm not a big drinker; could I cut the alcohol amounts in half and substitute something else instead? What would be a good substitute, more cream/milk?
