Remember this food trend from 10 years ago?



Fast food places were popping up that got one of those spiral potato cutters, and would deep fry it. It was mostly relevant to this thread for the name, they would call these "pornados". A lot of the reviews from this place are people hung up on that name for obvious reasons https://www.yelp.com/biz/hurricane-spud-seattle
I saw a version of that with a spiralized chicken breast. Kicking myself that I didn't try it, now that place is closed and demolished.

Amazingly enough, Americans are actually using entree correctly in the traditional French way. Entree is short for entree de table and look it's really long and dumb but basically Americans copied the French, who were already like 5 steps removed from the literal "entrance" meaning, and it's only in the last century that the French finally gave up and dumbed down their own terminology.

here's a bit on it from Modern French Culinary Art:



... which reminds me that I need to post more pictures of incredibly carefully prepared French food that looks like poo poo bc photography

You're supposed to grate the beets, the cheese should be sharp, maybe even add some garlic and crushed nuts, and then it's super nice.

Or you could just accept that language changes and you're being kind of weird about it.

I'm an English teacher and I actively enjoy quirks of language, and regularly teach my students (many of them French) about the changeability of language and how it isn't set in stone. This is a very lighthearted chat and I regularly poke fun at weird terminology in British English and other dialects and languages I know, and if i hadn't brought it up itt I wouldn't have learned something new about the etymology of entree. Don't take it so seriously.

The only thing I take seriously on here are the pizza rules. And all this talk has taught me is that can't tell you what an entree is supposed to be anymore. If someone asks me I'm going to tell them it's not the starter or the main but it's definitely one of those things.

You have just broken math with this post. If there are no entree rules and no pizza rules, then that means pizza is an entree, which is both a pizza rule, and an entree rule, and we've just divided by zero.

I have eaten blocks of dry ramen, and had the occasional sip of ranch left in a dipping cup. Never have I thought the two would go together before now.

But someone tie me to the loving mast because that siren song is calling me for some goddamn reason.

I'd be extremely surprised if there wasn't some sort of concept restaurant that does this already.

I had to stop doing this because they're more filling as soup and they're 500 calories per brick

apparently they dry the noodles by deep-frying them?
