I don’t mind “this apple tart recipe is in honor of my grandfather, the gardener. Let me tell you his story...” pages so long as they have the “jump to recipe” button easily visible at the top of the page that I will invariably miss until I visit the site at a later date

Texas got hosed by ice and the grocery stores are getting back in shape, but absolutely nowhere stable enough to plan on ingredients being on the shelf. This shopping trip will be a good test of my ability to shop by my gut and make a good meal without a recipe to follow.

VelociBacon posted:This is interesting to me because I never make a shopping list and always just see what looks good or is on sale etc when I'm there. I assumed most people do the same but maybe I'm in the irresponsible minority. Eh, different strokes for different folks. I’ve always gone recipe->shopping even after I got to a point where I’m comfortable in the kitchen. Shopping based on quality is probably smarter, but it’s not something I’ve worked on. Plus I’m always dumb and shop on weekends, so I like having my route planned out so I can zoom through the store and avoid crowds

I’m officially a boomer retailer and didn’t realize the power of social media influence. One of those recipe tiktok accounts posted a baked feta pasta video and that week’s feta sales jumped 175% above trend.

At the request of my wife, I made soufflés last night. They were delicious, but now I can’t stop thinking about how a handful of extra ingredients and tweaking some steps turns a cheese soufflé into a plate of biscuits and sausage gravy with cheesy scrambled eggs on the side.

Hopdoddys has an impossible burger on their menu. I got it and thought it was good, but then I had a bite of my wife’s normal cheeseburger and it blew the impossible burger away. The impossible one tasted like a “beef” burger you’d get at a summer camp cafeteria.

Hawkperson posted:I made this recipe last night except instead of bothering to grate a garlic clove I added an entire head’s worth of whole cloves and basically I just don’t understand why italian-ish recipes that are roasted just don’t say “throw in a bunch of whole garlic, it’s the loving best” Their immortal vampire overlords look unfavorably on the liberal use of garlic.

Veritek83 posted:There's also research in the last ten years or so about gas appliances being linked to measurably higher rates of asthma and other respiratory issues, particularly among children. I've been thinking about replacing my electric range with gas, but having read through some of the stuff, I'm thinking I may just get an outdoor burner to use occasionally and go induction in the kitchen. I’ve seen this bubbling around, which I hate since we’re full gas. Ideally we’d switch to an induction stove/electric oven, but that’s going to spill into a full blown kitchen remodel and those are hard enough to do when the supply chain and contractor markets are normal.

Yeah the oven switches on and off to regulate heat, apparently there’s a switch that only releases gas when it senses a metal bit in the electronic igniter has gotten enough amps to be hot enough to ignite the gas. Since the wires used to heat the metal bit failed, the gas switch won’t operate let gas out. Or something like that. No pilot light from what I’ve seen. Regardless, it’d be a pain to get everything disassembled enough to light the oven if I could get the gas going. Pie can wait, it’s Girl Scout cookie season and I have thin mints in the freezer.

The food poisoning I got from a pizza place was a monkey paw situation because I thought “I’m trying to lose some weight, I’ll order a salad and a slice instead of 2 slices.” I did look rather trim after the 48 hours of body cleansing and limited eating that followed.

Has anyone else run into bad chicken breasts? Setting aside the “yes, every time I eat a chicken breast  ” joke, every so often I get a breast with extreme rubbery texture issues even though it was cooked the same way and to the same internal temp as breasts that come out perfect.

Gross. Thanks all. I never really noticed it until Covid, but that’s also when we switched to curbside services so I haven’t picked out my own chicken in years. Maybe the meat plants also stopped pulling out obvious bad breasts due to staffing issues and the fact that it won’t stop people from buying chicken.

Shooting Blanks posted:The two hot sauce brands I will always shill for are Humble House and Yellowbird. I haven't had anything from either that was heavy on the vinegar, and neither one is on the Scoville express elevator, which I appreciate. Yellowbird is great, I always have a bottle in my fridge. Secret aardvark has a more unique flavor but it slaps in a big bowl of pinto beans.

I’m choosing to willfully suppress the stupid cooking poo poo I did when I was younger and instead going to remember how my roommate would tell people I was a great cook because it always smelled great when I was making dinner. Everything I cooked back then started with butter, garlic, and onion.

We had a similar-ish experience with a recent meal train. Most meals were tasty enough and much appreciated for giving us time back with our newborn, but we preferred our normal cooking. Then a mom dropped off a meal where one bite was enough for us to go “Oh. Ohhhhhhh. That lady can cook.” It wasn’t anything extravagant, just chicken, rice, and green beans done exceedingly well. She’s the local curve buster for potlucks as well.

I’ve slept on homemade falafel for too long. The hand cranked processor substitute I use couldn’t blitz everything fine enough to hold a shape, but we eventually got solid pan fried patties after tripling the flour in the recipe. The cooling rack examples went from Fail, Awful to passable falafel by the time the mix ran out. Exponentially better and cheaper than the falafel options at nearby salad chains.
