The Midniter posted:Went out to dinner tonight with my boss while we're both here in Detroit for work. Hit up a New Orleans style restaurant whose menu looked good. I got the chicken jambalaya and it was suuuuuper disappointing. I'm in love with andouille and if I did a blind taste test, I would have bet that what they served was a chopped up hot dog. No spice, and springy as a mofo. The peppers and onions were cooked to within an inch of their lives, and the rice was mushy. I hate to break it to you but this place's menu did not in fact look good.

Casu Marzu posted:I accidentally made double the amount of stuffing needed for a roast, I need ideas for the leftover. For regular stuffing at least, I'd do something like mix it with leftover mash, maybe an egg, make little fried potato cake patties? Or mix it with butter and garlic, do a chicken kiev kind of effort.

Pookah posted:I thinks it's highly modified version of indian curry which has been heavily modified by its passage through postwar Britain (very mild, very bland, add sultanas and probably turnips), 1950's Ireland (even milder and blander) to its final home - Irish chippers. I like it, but it's only for making into a thick brown sauce to slop over some chips; it's not even a nodding acquaintance of an actual indian curry at this point. Surprisingly similar to Japanese curry though (they got it via Britain too albeit in the 19th century)

Eat This Glob posted:Airbus indeed does a ton in france, spain and germany. aviation in italy is weird as they're in bed with the UK to make the next gen fighter jet. the uk is also out of the EU loop on aviation as well, so I'm not exactly sure why they're lumped in with the Airbus countries. Also, Airbus is headquartered in the Netherlands. Are they exempt/included? I don't recall ever having bought Dutch goods outside of a six pack of Heinekenq Airbus isn't an EU project per se, the UK is one of the partner countries in it Brexit or not, and the wings on every Airbus plane are made in Wales.

OMGVBFLOL posted:in this hypothetical, are we assuming here that the tariffs will eventually drag up the consumer pricing of domestic goods? Because "imported butter" and "european cheeses" aren't exactly staples of my fridge either If people switch from buying those products to domestic products because of the price rise, supply and demand means the price of the domestic products will also rise, meaning you will have to pay more for them.

explosivo posted:My family has a recipe for "filling balls" that has been made at thanksgiving for my entire life that's basically baseball sized wads of bread cubes, celery, onions, and a few eggs baked in the oven so they get a nice crunchy outside but warm, soft innards and for like 15 years I thought this was what filling/stuffing was. They are so goddamn good still warm and cut in half with gravy on. For what it's worth stuffing often comes in balls in  . More usually golf ball size though.

VelociBacon posted:Is this not due to it coming from a store bought tray and being served with an ice cream scoop though? Err, nope? Like if you go to a restaurant it'll usually come in balls. If you buy the dry packet stuff it'll tell you both how to do it in a tray or make your own balls. The idea is you get more surface area with the latter and thus more crispiness I think. I would give Very Strange Looks to someone who served me cooked stuffing with an ice cream scoop.
