Kroppkakor are delicious. Sorry about your poor school lunch version. It's salt pork, onions and allspice wrapped in a potato dumpling. Good stuff!

You can fry kroppkakor too, that works. The potato dumpling is made with flour and eggs, so it's sort of like a very large gnocchi in texture. It's boiled in salted water and shouldn't turn mushy at all. There's regional differences too, with bitter fights over the supreme version. Smålandskroppkakor are made with boiled potatoes, and Ölandskroppkakor are made with raw and boiled potatoes. Up north, they eat palt, which is usually made with barley flour and one variety that has pigs blood mixed in with the dumpling dough. It's pork, potatoes and butter, what's not to like?

Zopotantor posted:Aren't those the booger-flavored ones? The "Bean-Boozled" pack have identical booger and juicy pear beans. The difference is that the booger ones are slightly more edible. I don't know what it is, I even like other kinds of pear flavored candy. Just the Jelly Belly Juicy Pear actually makes me gag.

Captain Jesus posted:There's a cheap eatery near where I work that posts examples of their menu on facebook every day. Let's just say the images don't really make me want to eat there. I think I have deciphered this picture. They probably called it 'Chicken Cordon Blue'. It's not actually raw chicken, it's cooked chicken covered by cheap pressed ham and cheese. The kind of ham that's made from scraps pressed together to a log in a giant tin. Restaurants use it for salads, sandwiches and pizza. It's cooked in a steam tray, because that way canteens and cafeterias can cook lots of food fast and with little effort. Layer raw chicken, sliced 'ham' and shredded cheese. Steam until chicken is cooked through. That also explains why the cheese is melted, but nothing is browned.

Steam tray cooking   Dump chicken legs in trays, put in cabinet. The liquid that collects in the bottom of the tray is the sauce. For effort, brown the chicken in an oven for a few minutes before steaming.

death .cab for qt posted:Canned vegetables taste like poo poo, most frozen veggies taste like poo poo, the moral of the story is to buy produce from the produce section and never look back Some vegetables have a short shelf life fresh, and freeze well, like broccoli. Peas go from starchy to overripe in a few days, so that's why you rarely see fresh green peas for sale. With those kinds of vegetables, chances are you will actually get a higher quality from the frozen section than from fresh produce. Also canned beans are convenient and stuff.

Plan Z posted:Chow-chow in other places can have interesting visuals with some complex flavor. In Pennsylvania, it's just a bunch of bitter vegetables. Amish desserts are pretty great, though, I guess. Hey! PA Dutch chow-chow can be delicious. I got some from a farmers market that was crunchy vegetables and soft beans in a sweet pickle. Could eat a whole jar of that stuff. I traveled through PA with a friend who took me to PA Dutch diners, and I got to agree with you on the other stuff. Pretty bland, but hearty. Can see that it works for people who work hard on farms all day.

That shredded radish with mango this could make an interesting kimchi if you added salt and let it ferment. or it could taste like a sweet and sour tire fire.

an overdue owl posted:American butter tastes bad compared to proper British butter. American butter is very pure fat and milk solids, and it has a very neutral flavor.European butter is made with lactobacterial cultures. The traditional method was to let the cream sour slightly before churning, but now the lactobacteria culture is added separately. The culture is what gives butter its flavor, really. In the US, people pay premium for Irish and Danish butter.

You don't need to add sugar to bread dough to make it rise. It just takes a little longer without it since the yeast will have to process starch instead of just fermenting pure sugars.
