I just had a pancake revelation. I added about a tablespoon of mawa powder to a single-egg batch. So good. It adds this creamy, rich, slightly tart, decadent flavor like cream cheese, and it softens the crumb. They do brown a little faster, so turn down the heat a bit.

Just looked up mawa powder. Milk powder with fat included yeah?

Livestrong posted:

Milk mawa powder is also likely to have a different texture than regular milk powder. This is due to the fact that mawa powder may be curdled before it’s evaporated, giving it a final texture that’s rough or granulated. While nonfat milk powder and low-fat varieties can clump up in extended storage, they tend to be smoother and have smaller granules.

Looks like I'll try this with nonfat this weekend, adding some extra butter to counteract the lack of fat. Thanks!

It has a different flavor, but adding milk powder should be nice too. Try cultured butter or creme fraiche instead for the tanginess.

TBH I use a mix of light red kidney beans since they keep their texture well and the great northerns because they don't and make it kind of creamy. Beanless chili is fine it's just preferences.

Paging dino.!

My son (7) recently started eating dinner with us. He used to eat a lot of foods we ate but now whatever we cook has to work for him. For a 7-year-old he has a pretty adventurous palate, but he is 7. He doesn’t really like spicy heat so he’s never had the Indian food I make.

I just made us a red lentil dal for dinner. Having read dino.’s book and made a few versions I don’t use a recipe anymore: I just cooked cumin and mustard seeds until they popped, added an onion, then garlic, ginger, turmeric, and coriander*, then lentils and water. I served it with rice and turmeric- and cumin-roasted broccoli. The little fellow loved it.

Cooking for people is so satisfying, and cooking for my son, when he enjoys it, particularly so. I love knowing that I’ve made something tasty and nutritious and that he’s really liked eating it. (When he eats something he enjoys, which is often, he makes little noises of satisfaction, which we call happy eaty noises). Cooking good food for other people is profoundly gratifying on quite a deep level.

* I love your expression “blooming the spices”. It’s so evocative.

Oh man, everything about this post is so great. I’m thrilled to bits that you don’t even bother with a recipe for daal anymore. That’s the biggest compliment someone can pay me. Also, great on getting the little one eating variety. That’ll keep him in good standing all his life.

Also, I’m keeping an eye out for NoSmo posting about his family.

MC: good on you! Keep us posted. We’re pulling for you.

Spatchcocking poultry is so great. Nice job on the efficiency.

My family is all getting together in Minneapolis for Thanksgiving, leaving me alone for the first time in ten years or so. I'm taking the opportunity to experiment with things I've been wanting to cook but haven't had the time. On the menu for tomorrow: ghormeh sabzi with goat and a caramel pear tart. Friday will be mapo tofu, using the recipe from Land of Plenty. Saturday I'm going to smoke a couple pounds of beef shank and make smoky osso bucco (mostly because, while house sitting, I have access to an awesome smoker and wouldn't be able to forgive myself if I didn't use it for something). Sunday is hassenpfeffer.

Vegas folks: the Mob Museum is doing a Prohibition Repeal Day celebration at their speakeasy on December 5th. $99 per person, open bar, "heavy tray passed hors d’oeuvres," jazz band, etc. It looks like it'll be a pretty good time, especially if you care to go in costume (I don't, fat person clothes are expensive enough as it is). There are tickets still available if you're interested in doing a mini-drunken-goon-meet thing, possibly with dinner before (I suggest Esther's Kitchen).

Also Vegas folks: George Racz, the owner/founder of Las Vegas Distillery, passed away unexpectedly on Sunday. He was an amazing man. He moved from Hungary to the US, learned English while earning a film degree in New York, moved to Vegas, wrote the legislation that allows craft distilling in the state and guided it through the State Legistlature, and founded the LV Distillery in what would become the Henderson Booze District. He was a massive, towering man with an even bigger personality - a devoted father, fanatical consumer of all things locally crafted, and just a fuckin' hell of a guy. The cluster of three great breweries we have in Henderson wouldn't exist without him; hell, maybe none of them would individually. Those of us who knew him will miss him. He was also the distiller-in-residence at the Mob Museum, so I'm using this whole Repeal Day thing as an opportunity to pay him a little tribute while enjoying some of the product he poured his life into crafting.

e: Modernist Cuisine at Home is absolutely worth $90 to non-vegetarians. I'd caution those with dietary restrictions to reconsider, because like 85% of its content is meat-based. But it's really good content, with legendarily great photography.
