No, he/she was naked, headless and... empty? Maybe? Anyway, we had this "home invasion" dinner where a bunch of chefs trussed up our house and charged money for it, and hired servers and poo poo. I am not sure why, I stayed out of the house for the night. In any case, they left the quails, the rabbit confit and also, for some reason, a lot of empty bottles of Gatorade.

Also, sorry about the weird derail, here's some chicken, maybe:

Yo, so tapenade. It can be done very well, but gently caress up even slightly (or buy the lovely store brands) and it's literally vegetable diarrhea in four of the five senses: smell, sight, feel, and probably taste are all functionally the exact same level of acrid and diseased as literal poo poo from an rear end hole.

I love olives but goddamn, a bad tapenade is like opening up a baby's diaper and scooping pita chips in.

I'm back. I don't think there's much to this story, but here you go. Basically, two months ago, my roommate asked if it would be alright if some of the guys from Insomnia came to our house, used our kitchen to make some fancy food and then charge acquaintances something in the neighborhood of $70 CDN to attend. I asked if I had do anything, and she said no, so I agreed. I forgot about this completely until a man rang my doorbell at 9AM, and pointed to his van. The side of the van read "PARTY SUPPLIES", and he asked me where I "would like it". I had no idea what he meant, and told him to leave "it" on the porch ("it" turned out to be chairs and glasses). I got home later, there was a new table and a bunch of strangers in my house, so I went to the pub and got drunk enough that I couldn't tell good from evil, and by the time I got home they'd all left. Voila.

Anyway, here's the quails sticking they legys out real far:



"Mole negro" sauce is apparently the brown goop on them.

I skipped to the end where he laded out the stuff, and there's someone else there!

Also, nice fire hazard with the curtain of power strips behind him as he prepares the green stuff.

Partially out of boredom and partially out of an effort to get over some depressive funk, I have decided to post about the wonders of cooking that I faced growing up with recipes sure to horrify that I will periodically post when I remember to. I think that I will start with a nice, simple dish of hamburger gravy and mashed potatoes.

Hamburger Gravy
Ingredients:

1 one pound roll of ground beef
1 small yellow onion
1 stick of unsalted butter
1 package of cream cheese
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
Around 2 cups of whole milk

First, brown the ground beef and add onions, cooking until they're almost tender. Add the package of cream cheese and stick of butter and stir until melted into a greasy mass of gritty milk fat and meat. Stir in the can of soup and slowly add milk and simmer until it reduces into a thick slurry. Do not spoon off the grease that forms at the top, as it "removes the flavor".

Mashed Potatoes
Ingredients:

8 or so large russet potatoes
2 sticks of unsalted butter
Around 12 oz. of sour cream
2-3 tbsp. Miracle Whip
Onion and garlic powder
Enough milk to moisten

Poke several holes in the potatoes with a fork and place in microwave, heating for about 10+ minutes, until soft enough to stick a fork in with minimal resistance. Peel the skins from the potatoes and mash by hand along with the sticks of butter. Add the tub of sour cream and Miracle Whip, then mix, adding a very light dusting of both onion and garlic powder. When the mixture comes together, add milk until well moistened, then return to the microwave and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the potatoes lose their moistness. Top with loose sweet corn and hamburger gravy.

Its the socially acceptable way to add MSG in a way that isn't scary chemicals.

e. Also fat and lactose. The three necessary food groups, MSG, fat, and sugar.

Alot of canned soup is just seasoned stock or cream, so whatever? It's lazy, yeah, but it makes sense.

Funny part is how ultra processed food like canned soup has more chemicals/preservatives the average consumer has never heard of, than just pure MSG.

Moist is a good word to use for most of their recipes. Except those potatoes, I don't know how they got them so dry and lumpy with all of those wet ingredients.

Edit: Expect to see "moist", "greasy", and "oh god, why is it grey?" in future recipes.

Can an American/Canadian please explain to me wtf is up with General Tso chicken?

I followed a recipe that apparently did some poo poo to cut through the sweetness a bit and even then had to add more soy sauce to cut through it even more and make it actually palatable. And this was a recipe from J. Kenji Lopez-Alt, who afaik actually knows his stuff.

So what gives, how is it that you've essentially taken Mongolian sauce and over sweetened it?

So apparently, this is just what I've heard and have no way to back it up but, the reason General Tso's Chicken is so ubiquitous is that the two chefs who basically put Chinese food on the map in America both happened to go to the same restaurant in Taiwan where General Tso's chicken was created, and both took the recipe with them back to the US. The guy who invented it actually died last year.
