I kinda of wonder if anyone buying cauliflower rice has ever touched a head of cauliflower before cause man that poo poo falls apart so easy the idea of pre-mincing it seems about as necessary as pre crumbled chips. You don't even need a knife, minced cauliflower is what happens when you're not careful enough with it. Actually writing that out I wouldn't even be surprised if that was the origin, after the sliced and diced stuff you find in frozen packs of vegetables they sweep down the shoots and package "cauliflower rice".

Yes Gaius Marius posted:I never understood people's obsession with trying to make one food another. Cauli rice sucks, Zucchini noodles suck, Tufurkey is god awful. Make loving roasted Cauli, Zucchini bread, or Mapo Tofu. You can make 'em good but not if your trying to make them something else No ShowTime posted:So many opinions about the cauliflower rice. It's cauliflower boys and girls. And it's frozen. Face it, you aren't eating cauliflower rice for the flavor, you are eating it because you don't want to stuff a bunch of calories down your face. It's good for that reason. It doesn't require buying a head of cauliflower, mincing it and cooking it yourself. Exactly With a strict calorie budget you can get eat a lower % of carbs if you use cauliflower rice instead of rice, and about 130 calories fewer as part of a meal vs rice., that's about as filling. It certainly isn't as nice as rice but it's amazing for what it's actually for. I love it.

You can make bocadillos with the meat or serve it as a tapas (so basically deconstructed sandwich ingredients of break, cheese, olives, etc). You could also shave a bunch and share with friends/co-workers cause you're probably not going to eat 8-9 lbs of it.

You can hang it above your front door so everyone knows what church you really belong too. You can barter with it. 1 Jamon ham is worth approximately 6 sea shells or 25 bottle caps. You can wear it for a winter scarf. It's quite fetching, really. You can sacrifice it to Cthulhu. He's a ham lover. You can mail it to me.

luchajones posted:So I bought one of those Costco Jamon hams. Besides eating it by itself, what else can you do with it? I bought the ham and have been eating ham for like a month now. I basically cracked down and froze a lot of it in foodsaver bags because its sheer size made me confront my limits as a human being. That said, I cut off some slabs along with the slices that I can use to put into pasta dishes (e.g. carbonara) or to chop up and toss with some glazed brussels sprouts or the like. More or less it's a passable bacon replacement for your cooking needs.

What happens if you try cooking with it? Like, I love ramming prosciutto into my mouth. But every time I try cooking with it, it sucks. I had no bacon the other day so I tried frying up some as a bacon replacement in an omelette and I ended up throwing the whole thing away.

might be good in something like carbonara, where it's not the star of the dish. you might have to add some fats to cook it in.

Prosciutto wrapped scallops are really good, could also wrap cod with it. Make sure the prosciutto is really thin.

In Barcelona you can buy little paper cones of ham with crunchy breadsticks to eat while you’re walking down the street so I would say cut the ham into cubes and put it in a paper cone with crunchy breadsticks

You should really just put it on some white bread with a slice of american cheese and some mayo and call it a day. I joke, but I bet some Jamon ham on two slices of Dave's with some Kerry Gold Dubliner and some Kewpie mayo would be the best sandwich we've ever had. Which speaks to what we all love about Costco: You can buy some really artisanal, gourmet poo poo at great prices. You may have to buy a pound of it at once, but it's not marked up like crazy. It usually costs 300% as much at Whole Foods because they sell it in 12oz jars or whatever. A 12oz jar is definitely more convenient but i'll find something to do with 3lbs of cheese.

ShowTime posted:You should really just put it on some white bread with a slice of american cheese and some mayo and call it a day. The enormous quantity is not always desirable. I bought some fancy mayonnaise that separated before I even opened it - had to throw away the entire giant jar. (I tried to re-emulsify it but it was futile) But yes, in general I agree. If it’s shelf-stable or frozen the size doesn’t matter as much. I went through an entire flat pack of canned organic mushrooms in like a month because it was so convenient to throw them in to a bunch of stuff I made.

I just bought 3 of these LED shop lights for my garage, they're really nice. https://www.costco.com/koda-46%22-led-linkable-shop-light-with-motion-sensor-and-remote.product.100658326.html They're super bright (4600 lumens), they have a remote and they have motion sensors that can turn on when you walk by. You can link up to 6 of them as well and use a single plug. They're pretty light and there's a lot of plastic but at only $20 they're a steal.

FCKGW posted:I just bought 3 of these LED shop lights for my garage, they're really nice. They are very nice at $20 and for the right location they're great. I put one in the basement, so there is a light for the cats when they use the box. I had to put it on the smallest sensor zone or it turned on all the time. Maybe from the flexing of the joists it's mounted to? Without a doubt it was the easiest shop light I've ever solid mounted. It has little clips that go on very easily. The Feit lights I bought for the garage require precise locating and if the ceiling isn't flat it doesn't work well. I'd like a bunch more, but I don't need the remote and sensor stuff. I'd buy the same without that for $20 honestly. I have seven of the Feit lights in the garage and I'd like to mount 4-6 more. I'm considering these but they go on sale often enough I'll see what the next generation brings.

I usually put 3 plants in a pot in the spring and within three weeks I have more bail than I know what to do with. Cut it all back for lots of pesto, and a week later it looks like you never touched it. And I loving suck at growing anything. I always forget to water my plants.
