How do you guys store your rice? The bags they come in are quite ponderous. Should I go for giant square Tupperware?

just fill up a delitainer/readytainer or two and leave the rest in bag

Is this gochugaru? This seemed to be the only coarse Korean pepper option at the New Grand Mart I went to for the first time today.


this looks like fine powder, not the coarse stuff

can you maybe post a pic of your setup? im having a hard time picturing it based on your description (is the fire behind the food?)

however my assumption is that you could try making something like this (or buy this)

i have a pair of these for my bge and they work really well and i think they could work as a heat barrier if you want

I unsubscribed from penzy’s when the owner continued sending multi-paragraph emails about how screwed our country is because of Trump.

Everyone’s entitled to their own political beliefs, but I don’t feel like you should continue to broadcast that in emails to your customers. I really liked it when he would send an email having zero to do with any products, but he’d just talk about the state of the nation.

lol

(Side note: the magazine incorrectly reported that Penzey’s apolitical sister, a competing spice merchant, reached out to conservative media in an attempt to sell politics-free spices from the same family. I reached out to her first, and posted about it here. She responded later by inviting readers of my blog alienated by her brother’s nastiness to buy apolitical spices at The Spice House — which I’ve done, and which I, as a former Penzeys customer, recommend to you. Especially their Bavarian Seasoning.)

I made turkey stock today and it is super cloudy. Doesn't really matter because it's going in dressing and gravy, but how would I go about clarifying it into turkey consomme? I think there are egg white and ground meat involved? Thinking of trying it just for kicks because I never have before and it doesn't matter if I fail.

did you make it in a pressure cooker?

i used to get a lot of the cloudy, emulsified fat in my chicken stock until i read an article somewhere that said you should let it release naturally to minimize that cloudy fat that can appear in the stock.

I take this thread for granted and immediately run here whenever I have a question related to cooking, cause sometimes you lot knock it out the park with your replies and it's like having a wisdom infusion directly into my brain. I did some googling and I'm not meant to be adding sugary stuff to the marinade, that should be added right at the end. So marinades need to be either acidic/briney and then you finish by adding the sugary stuff like mirin. But then adding lemon for acidity has sugar in it and can burn easy so I dunno.

in general yes things with sugar will burn off quite easy. especially if you're cooking in a pan (as opposed to grilling, where you have flexibility to cook over the coals and then move to indirect heat to reduce charring or overcooking)

but one thing to consider is that marinades dont really penetrate the meat very much so you're better off wiping off right before cooking. it also helps with browning to have less moisture on the outside surface.

Anyone have good ideas for sprucing up canned tuna? I usually add a chopped onion, half a lemon, garlic salt, soy sauce, some good brown mustard, a bit of hot sauce and lots of mayo, and it turns out really good, but there is always room for improvement.

I use shallots, celery, lemon, mustard, mayo and a hefty glug of fish sauce.

but now I'm curious about these options using sesame oil

are you sure you cooked them through enough? chicken thighs at undercooked temps are really unappealing. if you overcook them they will be fibrous and dry, not rubbery.

So I have a killer craving for some halal-style chicken over rice with white sauce, and no places around here that do that kinda thing. Taking matters into my own hands, I now have rice, chicken, and spices, but no decent recipe for a white sauce. I know there's a recipe over at Serious Eats, but looking at the comments people were saying it's way too mayonnaise-heavy, and that's not my jam, so I was wondering if any of y'all happen to have a decent recipe for some homemade white sauce. Thanks in advance.

kenjis recipe is good except for the white sauce.

I haven't made it yet but I dug through the comments on Reddit about this recipe and this was suggested
