Is yellow squash good in curry? I’ve run out of carrots and thought I might try to substitute

Probably, I think any starchy veggie friend works in there.

Kabocha is good in it so other squash are prob also good.

im on the net me boys posted:Is yellow squash good in curry? I’ve run out of carrots and thought I might try to substitute There's two kinds of yellow squash, both would be good. Softer yellow summer squash usually looks like a yellow zucchini and would be good in a curry but you have to only cook it for a few minutes - probably sautee it with the onions before you add the curry roux. Overcook it and it'll either disintegrate or be really mushy. Hard yellow winter squash is big and has a hard outside. That's awesome in curry but you have to treat it like a potato - either simmer it for a couple of minutes before you add the roux or roast it before you add it.

In the last year my local grocery store sushi offerings changed from passable tuna and salmon nigiri and maki entirely to california rolls with weird gimmick toppings like the cheetos one.

Anybody who want's a new Chicken recipe owes it to themselves to try this Shoyu Chicken https://www.justonecookbook.com/butter-shoyu-chicken/ It's become an absolute staple in my diet, and made me remember how much I love Braising as a technique. Every single Time I've made it it's been delicious, and cheap as hell. Easy to adjust the ratios too depending on how much saltiness or sweetness you want. It's a true no frills dish that's great to make in bulk for the whole week. Only advice I'll give is if you;re using skin on Thigh's I'd use less oil then it asks for otherwise you're gonna be mopping it up before the final step.

Butter shoyu is one of my favorites. I usually do it with squid and/or eringe mushrooms.

It's insanely easy, just dump it in some butter, sautee for a minute and a half, spray on some shoyu, toss and done. Frozen works fine as long as you defrost it completely.

First attempt at takoyaki today, except I can’t find octopus to save my life so I substituted shrimp like a scrub. Also substituted okonomiyaki sauce, though I’m not sure there’s a huge difference. Tastewise it came out great. My biggest hurdle was my pan. It’s a $50 Amazon affair and I had an insanely hard time finding the edges of each divot to flip the balls. At first I overfilled everything and it was just a complete disaster so I disposed of that batch entirely. Second batch I filled just below the top, dropped in my ingredients and that went well enough, but any time I had to separate the batter from the divot next to it I had such a hard time. In the end it worked out well but definitely wish I’d bought a pan with all the holes in a row instead of circular.

That's awesome, I think I made takoyaki at home once years ago but it is kind of a whole project to do so I haven't done it since. You should take photos next time if you do it again! Also I have never thought about doing it with shrimp but that sounds tasty either way.

I was fully intending to do photos but I was so frustrated with my first garbage batch that I ended up being in a grumpy mood until I started monching down on the end result which ended up making the frustration worthwhile. I think part of it was this was literally my first go at making them in my life and wasn’t expecting the pan problems so that just kind of threw everything for me. Now that I know what to expect I’ll totally do a nice effortpost with end results next time The batter was really easy to make but I’m a big proponent of just using dashi powder and I never make it from scratch, which probably saves like 90% of the prep. I’d say it was probably literally two or three minutes of prep which puts it just over okonomiyaki as far as effort goes. Have a feeling these will become a staple now though. Also I’ve been making a super simple udon soup lately. Dashi, mirin, sugar, salt, and soy. Green onion garnish, and maybe a shiitake if I can remember to pick them up at the store. Simple and filling. I was hoping to find some inari age but it’s really hard to locate here, even in our big international food shop. I can find chinese fried tofu but I’m pretty sure that’s not an equivalent.

Technically tonkatsu/okonomiyaki/takoyaki/yakisoba sauces are different, but they're all the same vibe so subbing with whatever one you got is fine. I'm sure you're offending somebody by doing that but whatever.

Shrimp takoyaki sound good anyway and probably miles easier in terms of prep.

I will eventually figure out how to DIY all these sauces but I’m so accustomed to the taste of otafuku’s that I hope I haven’t prejudiced myself against whatever I make.

I started doing stuff like this a while back although I haven't been posting it. I'll just mix whatever leftovers are in the fridge with some kind of basic sauce, teriyaki, miso, kasuzuke or something. It's basically a 1:1 equivalent of the way you'd throw together pasta with random stuff and tomato or cream sauce. Works great. Stringent posted:I've been thinking about how as far as I know there isn't much in the way of soupless noodle dishes in Japan the way there is everywhere else, so I figured I'd try out a few things in that line. This is my first experiment, teriyaki udon and it came out p well. Did a couple chicken thighs in the pressure cooker with teriyaki and a bit of thin sliced onion, pulled the chicken and chopped it, reduced the sauce and stir fried in some snap peas and the udon. If any of you can think of anything along these lines I should try, or try it yourself that'd be cool. Thought I might like to try something based around yuzu kosho next.

I saw a cheap cake pop maker at aldi and bought it for 15€ on a whim because I was thinking "this should work for takoyaki maybe". I turned out that there is a whole lot of people on the web making takoyaki in cakepop makers. So unless you want/already have a pan, a cakepop maker is a really good alternative.

I can’t believe I’m asking this shameful question but.. What the heck is the secret to using all the kewpie in the bottle? Am I supposed to inflate the bottle after I squeeze it and store it upside down so it all settles on the bottom or what? Seems kind of weird that I’d be blowing up a condiment bottle like a balloon after each use. Otherwise I’m always left with a ton in a wrinkled crumpled up bottle.

Hold it by the base and flap it back and forth vigorously to shake it down! This is why it’s made of such soft plastic

after learning that style of shaking from kewpie bottles, i've found it works well on most standard squeeze bottles of mustard and ketchup. really good at getting rid of air pockets

Yeah I would try it but am more neutral on natto also. On the other hand... Tarako pasta is extremely my jam.

Does anyone outside of Japan actually enjoy naporitan? I've tried it both home made and at a restaurant and it's less tasty than the most mediocre of Italian chain restaurant dishes.

I made some nikujaga following JustOneCookbook's recipe, and it turned out pretty good, although I feel like it came out rather sweet, and that's even after I used a teaspoon of sugar instead of the recommended tablespoon. I've never had the dish made in an authentic way to compare it to. Will make it again though!

It's generally going to be pretty sweet. Most nimono definitely are compared to something like western stew. Embrace the sugar.
