Wanna eat that sandwich. The biscuit looks delicious. I've had absolutely zero luck with buttermilk biscuits, can I get your recipe?

I spent most of my weekend cooking. Tabbouleh - I made it with couscous instead of bulgur wheat, and it turned out to be pretty tasty.  Tzatziki  Roasted tomatoes, sauteed mushrooms and marinated artichoke hearts tossed in olive oil and lemon.  Swedish meatballs  Pork tenderloin - the sauce was a mix of hoisin, orange zest, lime zest and juice, and lemon juice. Despite the fact that I screwed the recipe up a bit, it was still delicious, especially with a bit of tzatziki.

Honestly, I don't see how someone saying they wouldn't eat something is being a douchebag, but okay. The bacon-wrapped pseudo-scallop sounds like a good idea, but its the foam and the gel that makes it look unappetizing to me. That's not to say that you shouldn't keep playing around with different techniques, and please keep posting so the rest of us can see how you're coming along (serious).  edit: fixed spelling errors Unexpected Road fucked around with this message at Sep 26, 2011 around 05:19 |

SLOSifl posted:The foam was actually really good. Lots of flavor, probably used too much. It had most of the seafood flavor in the dish, but I agree that it's not super appealing to look at. If I could make a couple of suggestions: if you're going to use a gel next time, don't cut it in half, and use a bit less, so that it looks a bit neater on the plate. Maybe instead of putting foam on top, try putting it underneath the potatoes? Although I think your best bet might be to just eliminate them from the dish altogether, and try playing with other foods to complement the other items. Also, no one is saying that the dish wasn't edible (quite the contrary, if you re-read mediaphage's comment). What we're saying is that the presentation was less than appealing.

two_beer_bishes posted:Can you please post your recipes for these? I really need to find a good tzatziki recipe! Yeah, absolutely! Tzatziki 16 ounces plain greek yogurt 1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded, and finely chopped Pinch salt 4 cloves garlic, finely minced 1 tablespoon olive oil 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar 5 to 6 mint leaves, finely minced Place the yogurt in a cheesecloth lined mesh strainer. Let strain four hours at least. Place the chopped cucumber in a cheesecloth and squeeze to remove the liquid; discard liquid. Combine the drained yogurt, cucumber, salt, garlic, olive oil, vinegar, and mint. It stays good in the fridge for about a week. The tabbouleh is kind of a family recipe, so I never had exact measurements regarding the couscous -- I usually had some left over after making the tabbouleh. You can make your own couscous or buy it and prepare it accordingly. Tabbouleh 2 cups diced roma tomatoes 1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded, and diced 3/4 cup freshly chopped parsley leaves 1/2 cup freshly chopped mint leaves 1/4 cup chopped green onions Pinch of salt and black pepper 4 tablespoons olive oil 1/4 cup fresh squeezed lemon juice At least a cup of prepared couscous Mix the tomatoes, cucumber, parsley, mint, green onions, salt and pepper in a bowl. Add couscous until you are satisfied with the ratio (should still be more vegetables than couscous in the end). Add the olive oil and lemon juices, toss with fork to blend.

 Swiss chard soup with homemade pita chips and a bit dollop of greek yoghurt stirred in it. I added some crumbled hot italian sausage and a bit of sriracha to give it a big of heat. It was absolutely delicious.  Turkey burger with homemade tzatziki, because I am addicted to it. I mixed a little olive oil left over from tomato confit that I made into the ground turkey before cooking it, and it added a nice flavour. Tzatziki on turkey is as delicious as I knew it would be.

Hawkgirl posted:What's your tzatziki recipe? I tried making it myself once and found it a little too thick and flavorless. Too much yogurt, I guess, but do share. I've already been asked for it once in this thread, so here's the post http://forums.somethingawful.com/sh...8#post395972924

It's been a slow week in the kitchen. Reuben with homemade sauerkraut - on marble rye, which is the best rye if you don't have time to bake the bread yourself  By far the laziest pizza I have ever made, but still pretty delicious. I had leftover flatbread so I threw on some fresh tomato sauce and sliced bell peppers, portobello mushrooms and sweet onion.  And my halloween breakfast baking project: mini-muffins. Chocolate chip (pink), fresh blueberry (blue), and banana-walnut (yellow).

 Shawarma! I made this for ICSA, but I'll be honest, I was too distracted by Skyrim to make a decent entry. I made my own pickles, flatbread, tzatziki and tahini. The boyfriend is coming over for dinner tomorrow, which is the best excuse for making it again.

Cell phone pic because my camera crapped out on me: I made soft pretzels, topped with sea salt. They were ridiculously easy to make and oh so delicious. Gravity, everything you make looks so amazing jesus christ

More crappy cell phone pics, I am so sorry. I really need to get my camera fixed. I made some challahs. I can't stop baking lately, send hungry people. GrAviTy84 posted:aww,thanks I wouldn't mind a few of those pretzels myself. I've never made them, but it seems like homemade pretzels may be the next brownbuttercookie in GWS. They are ridiculously simple to make. I followed the recipe from smitten kitchen and replaced the pretzel salt with sea salt.

I've been baking a lot the last couple of days. Today, I made blueberry crumble bars. I bought six pints of blueberries at the farmers' market and needed something to do with them. I love tart desserts so much.

One day I might make an actual meal instead of just making random things on a whim and snacking on them. Yesterday was not that day:  I had a bunch of cucumbers left over from making a ton of tzatziki, so I made pickles.
