Should someone who is not me make a "post your kitchen" thread so all of us are motivated to clean, and post our kitchens?

Flash Gordon Ramsay posted:My go to queso is a little beer +citrate brought to simmer, whisk in cheddar cheese, then add cooked sausage (or ground beef, blah), and a can or rotel. Add a little paprika and cumin and season to taste. Tried this today with a porter beer. Tasted like rarebit. Liked it but felt really trashy eating it.

Hell I need to use this big bag I have anyway, might do that this weekend. Yeah, that's pretty much it. The stuff we served at the bar was white american cheese, cream, diced jalapenos, and a little cayenne.

Invited a friend couple + a single friend to dinner. Told the single person to bring a guest if she wanted. When she showed up, it was with her – surprise! – vegetarian roommate, who we hadn't really met before. You knew she was vegetarian, right? Thankfully, we were making pulled pork tacos with a couple sides, so we just refried some black beans, but drat that could have been awkward.

The Midniter posted:I've read a lot about including baking soda in the brine, which helps the texture. I've never tried it myself but it might be something to consider. Interesting, had never heard the baking soda thing. I usually go the opposite direction, since my Traditional Cookery upbringing predilects me to err towards the french approach, court-bouillon, acid, etc. I will definitely give it the old science go. This weekend ended up just being a drunkfest, so noone cared about the doneness of anything and I threw together a giant tasty as gently caress seafood boil, complete with giant vats of molten garlic tony catcherie butter. Awwww yah

Cooked meatballs for the first time. Gotta say though I didn't really notice them being any tastier than the regular meatsauce. I guess it's really about texture.

I guess it's really about texture. find a good recipe since I learned This One Iranian Trick To Amazing Ground Meat On A Stick (from an iranian friend whose family has a great persian restaurant), I always puree an onion or two and garlic in a food processor until it's basically pulpy liquid, and make sure it's ice cold when I add it with a hefty amount of salt, dash of sugar, tsp or so of corn starch, and a splash of fish sauce. knead to get a primary bind, and something about that amount of liquid and seasoning makes these springy kofta-esque balls that you can skewer and grill, or cook in a pan or whatever, and they're the most delicious things possible. so juicy.

A while back I started grating my onion if making a meatball or rissole. But I agree it's totally not worth it for beef, may as well make a bolognese. Lamb rissoles or koftas are good though. But if making beef mince balls, then you pretty much have to double the salt and herbs you think you should use, and always use a grated onion for moisture. But store bought ground beef mince just doesn't have the flavour to me, so I don't bother any more. E: I might give it another crack if I could wrap something in the meatballs, like some cheese, bechamel or chilli pepper or something. Fo3 fucked around with this message at 13:13 on Sep 7, 2017 |

Speaking of dietary needs, week 3 just ended of my soft diet, and I've got somewhere between 8 and... Forever more weeks until it's over. Outside my apartment I'm pretty limited to congee and various noodles, as almost everything has some vegetable or ginger or something I can't chew, or I'm not familiar enough with to try without possibly causing permanent damage to my teeth. drat you Thailand for having the audacity to have textures in your dishes. At home I'm limited by my tiny one burner kitchen and tiny oven, so it's mostly been making, lol, casseroles and other big leftover monsters that pack on calories conveniently. So far I have done: Mexican Spaghetti (spaghetti, cheese, salsa, ground beef, various veggies, more cheese.) Chili Tuna Noodle Casserole (a pea in which took out my entire upper arch of teeth, woops) Baked Macaroni and Cheese I'm basically eating like a Midwestern housewife, but it's really nice having hearty meals on demand I don't have to inspect for the possibility they'll tear my false teeth out. Tomorrow's a new one for me. I've got some shredded pork I picked up at a market and I'm mixing it with baked beans, onions, and BBQ sauce, all under a cornbread crust. Any other suggestions for big make ahead meals which I can, to quote my dentist, "cut with a plastic spoon"? Loutre fucked around with this message at 20:12 on Sep 7, 2017 |

Lasagna filled with raviolis, covered with bolognese and meatballs. Served on top of a steak. Edit: actually that's gross I don't want to play this game anymore.

Loutre posted:Any other suggestions for big make ahead meals which I can, to quote my dentist, "cut with a plastic spoon"? Do you like polenta? You can add any kind of sauce and/or creamed greens. I like it pretty thick, but you can get any consistency your diet needs. My favorite:  That's "grits with pimento cheese and (not pictured) salsa" from Deep Run Roots. I can dig up the recipe if you like. e: here are some other recipes which are already online. We've cooked all of these and they work well, though some underestimate the time it takes to cook real polenta: http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/grits-creamed-cashews http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/garlicky-mustard-greens http://joythebaker.com/2014/09/sausage-cheddar-grits-crust-less-quiche/ http://asweetspoonful.com/2013/09/summer-in-september.html http://thefirstmess.com/2014/10/16/crispy-eggplant-polenta-bites-recipe/ http://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/pork-ragu-creamy-polenta not polenta, still good: http://www.sproutedkitchen.com/home/2014/2/2/roasted-fennel-and-white-bean-dip.html http://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/cream-of-cashew-pea-soup/amp http://www.bonappetit.com/recipe/caramelized-garlic-spinach-and-cheddar-tart/amp http://www.mynewroots.org/site/2012/09/cashew-corn-chowder-with-cilantro-cream/ BrianBoitano fucked around with this message at 00:25 on Sep 8, 2017 |

Scientastic posted:Scotch eggs aren't a meatball, they're a spherical pie I do love that description but given that they are breaded and not pastry, I'd actually classify them as a type of croquette. Which is, of course, a type of sandwich.
