Gann Jerrod posted:I’d be interested to see what people think is in a California Burrito. Well, I don't know what a California burrito is, but I do know what a California roll is and I know what a burrito is so I think I've got this. So the first thing is the wrap. Obviously these aren't proper Mexican tortillas, but this is a California burrito so I assume we're not aiming for authenticity and I already had these in the house. Now aside from the seaweed there are three ingredients in a California roll: rice, avocado and crab stick. So we'll obviously need all three of those. I also assume that every American dish includes ranch dressing, but I don't like ranch so I'm going to use mayonnaise. I bought the fancy Japanese mayonnaise because people go on about how it's so much different and better than normal mayonnaise, but it actually tastes exactly the same. But this isn't maki, it's a burrito, so it's going to need some salsa. But I don't think we want the normal Mexican style salsa for this particular combination of foods so I'm just going to make something I think will work with these flavours. Also some cheese. I may have overfilled it just a little bit. It's 3pm and I hadn't eaten yet today, so maybe it's just the hunger talking, but that was actually not terrible? Like, not something I'll bother making again, but not something I regret either.

The weirdest/most adventurous thing about it was that I baked the potatoes in a micro-convection oven for the first time (since I just got one) and they turned out pretty well. I just guessed the cooking time and temperature (30 mins at 200°) and I think I got it pretty much spot on.

bob dobbs is dead posted:very salty, the bacon jam + lobster combo. Well, that was a direction I never would have imagined taking with that. Partly because I already knew what a jam roly-poly is, and partly because I had no idea that savoury jam was even a thing. Also, although I have heard of slaters being called roly polys before, the association doesn't immediately leap to mind.

I just realised that I forgot to give my impressions of the food! The whisky soaked straight into the cake and made it soggy and taste of whisky. The rocky road mix had a bit too much coconut - is rocky road even supposed to have coconut in it? - and the mini marshmallows aren't really of any value whatsoever, but the chocolate and nuts were chocolate and nuts.The berries were also fine. So if you enjoy soggy cake and cheap whisky (and who doesn't?) then you're onto a winner.
