i had some smoked pork from a farmer’s market that basically demanded it be used in the dish

it spoke to me

that sounds delicious. it would be madness to deny smoked pork its rightful place in a nest of starchy carbs and savory spices.

I only have excellent ideas
I used to have that same kind of druid mug in highschool, or maybe one of my friends did. I remember whoever owned it keeping acorns in it but then the acorns got bugs. The sauce and the chili oil look so beautiful and I want to eat both of them right away but what I really want is to know whatever happened to that mug, I hadn't thought about those beautiful eyes and that sly smile in so long.

I made fresh hummus today. I don't know how store bought hummus gets it so wrong. I mean, store bought is fine, but fresh made is a whole other level.

I think about this a lot, because the very best store-bought hummus is way worse than lazy homemade hummus. I'm guessing it comes down to the orchestrations that food must be subjected to to allow it to live for months in a grocer's cooler.

I can sometimes eat my store bought hummus a month or so after opening it and I am not sure the white mold that always grows eventually is that harmful.

I would like the general hand waviness of the mint pistou, please. I'm looking for something to do with all this loving mint that survived winter.

a pistou is basically a pesto with fewer ingredients and more olive oil since it's more of a condiment than a sauce

finely chopped mint (or whatever herb you like)
olive oil
grated garlic
salt
pepper

mix it in whatever ratio tastes good to you

that's pistou (not much what's pistou with you)

Barging into the cooking thread because I didn't know we had a cooking thread

Today I made what I think is a pretty close approximation of Gyudon for someone who has never actually had Gyudon, sorta.




I omitted the sugar because I'm coming off a fast and I didn't wanna spike my heart into oblivion and added oyster sauce so it was probably more savory and less caramely than it could have been but I'm happy with it.

I will wait on SWR or Teddy Thunders for an official opinion, but goldang that looks good to me. :eyepop:

I made my own vanilla extract.
I had this dried out old vanilla bean on top of the fridge so I broke it up into bits and put it in a little glass ramekin with maybe about a tablespoon of armagnac and it's been soaking in there for a few days now.
Omfg. I just used like a quarter tsp of it to make some cashew cream to put on a waffle. So much vanilla. So delicious.
Do this. You could use cognac, or even bourbon or aged rum. Get a bean, break it up, put it in a little bit of brown booze, use it for anything that needs vanilla extract.

That looks pretty good!!!! The sugar is kinda important to the overall caramelization and yeah it's kinda sweet but I like the idea of swapping I'm what you've got to fit your diet. Gyudon is the best unfussy just beef bowl meal ever, and yours looks great.

Thank you! I'm gonna try it with a couple of different types of mint and see what works best with this lamb shank tonight

I leave them in granulated sugar to get v-sug, so I'll have to try this as well.

I wonder if this would work with tonka...

Oh I forgot to mention, make sure you have a lid for the container you're making your extract in so it doesn't all evaporate!

Op have you tried just shoving a bean into a 350ml bottle of vodka and forgetting it in the back of your pantry for 3 months because I did and it's real good

Also today is :ducksiren: sous vide duck tiddy day :ducksiren:.

It's almost done puddlin so I'm gonna sear it and then let it rest while I heat up a blackberry-sage sauce I made:

-pureed blackberries, strain for seeds trust me
-a bunch of white or green sage from wherever you can get it, fresh is best
-butter, salted
-cracked black pepper

Boil the gently caress out of the blackberries and sage and pepper. Take the sage leaves out when it reduces to half. This is good. Finish with butter to make it velvety, this is to taste.

Also works well with citrus peel (scrape the pith off) or peppercorns!
