Yep, that flavour combo in the rice pudding is based on a Spanish version, which I am sure is Moorish is origin.

And the Sephardim migrated to Istanbul when the Spanish Inquisition forced them out of formerly Moorish lands! I can (do) spend all day reading about human migration through the lens of food.

Tell me more about this b&r thing - is that the dsa site?

From an absolutely cursory view they are separate but both explicitly committed to progressive politics, which can be a little taxing but I feel sits with the zeitgeist here as GWS has in my 12 years been a very welcoming and deliberately inclusive place both politically and for those just learning to cook.

As long as we leave beans out of it.

Hey SubG I think that’s a very reasonable and welcome take on it; at some point we have to retire even the most storied of jokes when it’s obvious they punch down- see “dead g*ay forum” and the end of FYAD.

I don’t agree. Pr0k’s mom jokes aren’t punching down. I believe that he even told her about them and she was amused. And by this stage the joke is so far removed from a reference to a real person that it’s more of an abstract reference than anything else.

Sure, context is everything, but what about the people who haven’t been posting here for a decade or more who are seeing grossly misogynistic humor propagated and tolerated by the old guard?

5-10% ABV is the range for the ideal slushy texture.

The brix is also a good measure for whether the drink will freeze, between 13-15 is the sweet spot.

I often think of you when I cook Indian food, at which I have become competent at a basic level thanks to you. Every now and again it’s meh, mostly it’s pretty good, and occasionally I knock it out the park.

Thanks for reminding me to pull up Dino’s book on cooking vegan, which I bought to impress a girl I was dating and now I inadvertently eat vegan as often as I don’t and I am linking here-

The publisher does! You get an un-DRM'd version when you get the physical one. Also if you're not in the USA and don't want to wait for it to arrive, Book Depository sells it with free worldwide shipping.

Ah, excellent. That’s the version I have an ebook of, and need to revisit in my new house.

I forget that amazon is often a fulfillment service, like the time I tried to ship a copy of an everlasting meal to a friend in the UK and it ended up shipped from Texas. Fun times. I wonder if he ever got it...

Hi thread! I want to crowd source a question because I don’t think it needs its own thread. This weekend my best friend and I are going to sail out on the Long Island Sound to a little harbor about a half day away and overnight on the boat. Since I volunteered as Steward (in addition to ships chaplain, but hey), I’m looking at good low-effort eats. I think the first move is to update the shooter sandwich since I’m on a bread baking kick these days, possibly as a giant ham sandwich.

Any other fun travel foods? We have access to a grill and an electric oven, but I want to make as much ahead as we can so I can spend more time in the head. What I’m saying is, fiber.

Make a batch of pasta salad with veggies and chicken/tuna, that's always a winner.

I've been having a lot of luck with Squash Tika. Slice and fry squash rounds in butter/ghee, then sprinkle with Tika masala powder. A delicious veg side dish.

Solid. I’ve got some leftover pasta dough from the weekend, and squash is everywhere. Sadly I have to get to a farmers market and the only one near me is on Sunday. Guess I have to brave the subway...

Cooler, I believe. I don’t intend to bring much perishable, which is why I’m looking at cooked. Weather permitting it’ll be two nights, and I love a good pre-cook. Might have to make extra for my lady since she isn’t coming along.

Brazilian-Japanese is probably the result of the large Japanese population in Brazil.

A Japanese colleague of mine learned me on this one- in the early 20th century Japan was concened about over population and chartered ships to take volunteer families down the pacific coast of the Americas. Anywhere the family liked, they could disembark and settle, accounting for the significant Japanese populations of Peru, Argentina, Brazil, etc. This probably oversimplifies the migration of families after the laborers aboard the Sakura Maru in 1899, but it makes for a cool story.

Anybody have a good recipe for gluten free pasta dough, and/or brand recommendations? I was looking for the Brooks Headley stuff but no dice as yet. GF pasta salad for a friends birthday, since I know egg and Xanthem gum can bind the flour in a fashion functionally similar to gluten.
