Thanks y'all. I have a lot of fun making them, and I finally sold one. Plus they give me an excuse (as if I need one) to buy oddball and off-brand dines from Save-a-Lot, like these:

(Yes, that Sol-Mex is a one pound can of dines. :stare: For $2. :catstare:)

The response to my little contest has tickled me, knowing that some goons are actually somewhat disappointed now when their lids are plain. Aww, shucks, guys, you're making me blush. So let's make this fair and fun for all fish-fiending folks.

NEW RULES:
1. As before, first person to send 10 printed lids gets a free dine art
2. First person to send 15 plain lids also gets a free dine art
3. I get to make up more prizes as people send me stuff

Enter, and own a piece made on this dadliest bench

Sprat pate arrived! Naturally, I made a burger and used it as a spread. Holy crap, delicious. Loads of lightly cooked onions, some really strong mustard, riga gold pate, some spinach, and a big meaty burger.

Tomorrow, I'm going to make a banh mi with this pate.

Fork -> tin. Don't remove the lid entirely so the oil drips into the main part of the tin. I bring a plastic bag to dispose of the tin in because whiny co-workers with no sense of greatness moan about the smell.

Number 1 Sexy Dad is awesome, and he sent me some dines to try. They were KOs with pepper, and I initially tried some plain. I wasn't offended by the taste, but they had this odd... metallic, acid-y, strangeness that I don't normally associate with fish. I ate the whole tin on some toast and used my last bits of toast to soak up some of the oil, but I don't know that I'd eat them again unless I was really hungry and there was nothing else in the pantry. I have no issues with albacore tuna and tuna salad sandwiches.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that Number 1 Sexy Dad is cool as hell, and I've failed as an old man. :(

Don't fret, Mr. Bandit. Maybe you just haven't found a dine that's right for you. Fr'instance, recently someone posted that Beach Cliff in hot sauce were terrible, while the mustard ones are their jam. I am exactly the opposite, I thought the mustards were vile and was pleasantly surprised by the hot sauce ones. Different strokes for different folks, as my herring-eating, scotch-drinking grandpa would say.

Speaking of pleasant surprises, let's crack open those Port-Side "packaged for Save-a-Lot" mystery dines that I bought.

So I got two options here, plus some cooked wild rice I got for free at my job.


Let's save the hot sauce one for triscuits, and go with the plain janes. I can always gussy 'em up with hot sauce or soy or something once they're on the rice.


GOOD GOD THEY'RE HUGE


but so loving tasty


As it turns out they required no gussying. They had a delicious, seafoody-but-not-stinky aroma and flavor, the flesh was meaty and not mealy, and if you like bones, these big fellas delivered. For 79 cents, gently caress yeah, A+++ would buy again (and not just because they have lids with blue silkscreen on them for future artdines).

I wanna try some in hot sauce! I'm going to look for some at my local grocery the next time I'm there.

JacquelineDempsey posted:

I think this was also part of my problem with the KO dines. They were small, and the flesh just kind of fell apart when I tried to get em out with my fork. I was expecting something a little more sturdy. On the plus side, I had no problem at all with eating the bones, which I thought might be a problem for me. They were barely noticeable.

I'm not done with my dine adventures yet. I will continue to eat lil fishies until I find some I like!

Don't be afraid of the Beach Cliff fish steaks in hot sauce. They're tasty and the 'dine purists ignore them to leave more for you.

I didn't like 'em either. That's why i gave them away. :shrug:

In cooking things sous vide, a lot of people say that putting pepper in the bag for a long cook can give your meat a nasty funk. I wonder if it's the same for canning. Too much time in the can and the pepper leaches some of its otherwise subtler flavors?

But yeah, poo poo's dank IMO. Please don't feel obliged to eat the other can. Same to the others to whom I sent pepper 'dines.

I find the cracked pepper dines a bit much, if you scoop the peppercorns out and squirt some lemon/lime juice into the can you can pretend they are a better flavor

I have the same rice cooker

I only buy jasmine rice in bulk (to be cheap) or with the Thai ag symbol on it though



Is that what that is on the corner of your bag? I think it is. Funny given the Indian rear end brand name.

Rice cookers rule. I've had my cheap $13 one longer than I've had my wife of 17 years and it's still going strong. Wife says I have an unhealthy attachment to it but what does she know it was around before she was?! My 5 kids know not to go near it upon penalty of an rear end whoopin', I tell ya what.

I bought a high end Zojirushi rice cooker to replace it a few years ago but returned it after seeing that it cooked rice no better than my cheapo one. Sure it had programming and was "smart" blah blah blah but gently caress that. My little one-setting on/off rice cookin' buddy has never let me down and we'll be together forever.

They work through a temperature sensor. Because water is so efficient at removing heat so long as water is present the temperature won't go over a certain number. Once the water is mostly gone the temp spikes and the off switch triggers.

An electric kettle is one kitchen appliance that I would find it hard to live without anymore. Had a few over the years, and you really get spoiled by having the ability to boil like a liter and a half of water in a short span of time. Compared to doing it on the stove or in the microwave it is practically instant. Also helps to shorten cooking time for a lot of things, because you can boil the water in the kettle rather than waiting for it to warm on the stove.
