Okay got a friend who was on her anniversary in Italy and got stuck due to the lockdown.

I made a video about how to make shakshuka. She wants to make it, but doesn’t have harissa or Gochujang. No cumin or paprika either, she says Italians apparently don’t believe in spices. I suggested she try an American or Middle eastern store and she says they’re all closed.

She has red pepper flakes. What else would go with red pepper flakes to make a ramshackle shakshuka? Olive oil, black pepper, extra garlic? Soy sauce? An anchovy fillet?

Honestly sounds to me like she should just forget about it in those conditions

I have a bunch of dry pasta. I usually prefer pesto to red sauce and am tired of them both. Any other saucing suggestions? Cooking with a pescatarian so ragus might be off the table, and I don't do milk/cream (cheez is OK).

Planning to try romesco but would like for other unconventional ideas.

Rapini Pasta is dirt simple and delicious when done right

I made a really bad white trash recipe tonight.

1 hamburger patty chopped up (cooked up last night)
1 can of Ranch style beans drained
1/4 cup pickled Jalapeno peppers (all I had left in the fridge)
1/4 cup shredded cheese

Microwaved it until warm then added 2 types of hot sauce. It was not great but not bad.

Covid cooking is not my best cooking. I just do not want to waste food.

What is your shameful Covid Meal?

Microwaved chicken "patties"* on white bread with mayo, mustard(preferably horseradish kind), and maybe some ketchup too

*sometimes substituted with a veggie burger

It's not weird at all. A lot of people with a Type-1 IgE-mediated allergy (anaphylaxis) to tree nuts don't have that response to all of the tree nuts. Similar proteins in the tree nuts group can cause a reaction to the whole group or it can be very specific to a certain tree nut. Also, while peanut and tree nut allergies do tend to cluster, peanut allergies are not really very similar to the tree nut allergies, hence a person who was tested for both peanuts and almonds with a +ve peanut allergy and a -ve almond allergy could happily eat almond butter if it was produced in a facility that does not process peanuts and does not say "may contain" do not try this at home and everyone was very sure to read the labels very carefully.

Distinctly different is cross-reactive proteins, which you find in interesting cases, two of which I will detail:

Environmental allergens can provoke food allergenic symptoms.

1.) In a cohort of Orthodox Jewish patients with dust mite allergies and no prior exposure to shellfish (a prior exposure being necessary for a reaction,) a reaction to shrimp can be noticed after beginning immunotherapy (allergy shots) to dust mites. This likely shows that dust mites and shrimp share enough common proteins to have a cross-reaction. Ramping up the immune exposure to dust mite scat also caused positive skin prick tests in a population fastidious about exposure to shellfish (jab a toothpick in a shrimp then into the skin, compared to +ve histamine reaction and -ve saline reaction.) Shrimp are bugs.

2.) People with allergies to certain trees can develop Oral Allergy Syndrome (or Fruit Reactive Syndrome) in which say, a reaction to cross-reactive birches also causes mild tingling/itch in the face and oro-pharynx upon ingestion of certain fruits (apple, pear, etc.) because of profilin which is a common protein in both. They can eat the fruit cooked with no symptoms, and the proteins are denatured either by heat (by cooking) or by stomach acid so the tingling ends when they swallow. OAS is generally mild but shouldn't be played with as any reaction can be a much worse reaction than the previous one and there is no way to prove what a reaction will be in future.

Latex allergies and banana share a cross-reactive pathway in certain people, although not all; Latex Fruit Syndrome.

Allergies are weird, couple years ago I was diagnosed as being allergic to Walnuts and Salmon, and "borderline" allergic to Hazelnuts and Soy, yet I've consumed pretty much all of those at some point or another since(mostly by accident, though Soy is so common an ingredient I don't even bother to try to avoid it) and have suffered no apparent issues

Ugh I had the worst cooking failures tonight, first was an attempt at cooking some knockoff spam, after a bunch of complications making it, it ended up being disgusting, then I just couldn't seem to handle cooking eggs right either, ended up just heating up some Eggos

Pray tell, what complications were there cooking the ham in a can?

I personally have never tried cooking with it, might pick up a can to slice and fry with eggs while camping.

Well it was some knockoff brand for one thing, then I ended up using too much oil and heat so almost got hit by hot oil several times, and in the end it ended up being inedible and gross

Real Spam is good though, very salty too

Knockoff spam is fun to use in kimchi fried rice.

Well there's good knockoff spam and then there's bad knockoff spam, the kind I used the other day was the latter
