They forgot the goddamed dosa pan onion. > That's why their first one was coming out not so great. You don't grease the pan before putting down the dosa. You grease it after the batter gets laid out. But before that, you put a few DROPS of fat on the pan, and swipe the whole surface with the cut end of an onion. If the onion isn't sizzling, your pan isn't hot enough. If you skip the onion, your dosa will turn out trash. Anyone who's watched me make dosa before will know what I'm on about. I cannot believe they forgot the dosa pan onion. The reason you grease the dosa AFTER putting down the batter is that the fat is meant to sneak between the space inside the holes, and seep down to the underside, facilitating release. If you grease it first, it won't cling just right, and you end up with either too fat dosa like Brad had, or lacy dosas that shred into bits like Sohla had. And that also happens if you forget the onion. Long story longer: don't. forget. the onion.

Could be a bit of both, plus struggling with cabin fever. I've been assuming that some of the weirdness in the At Home stuff is because they're trying really hard to keep the staff from losing it during lockdown, and if they're going to do silly quizzes, they might as well get some content out of it too.

I honestly never used a nonstick because we always had a dedicated cast iron for dosa (a shallow one like Sohla's but we actually seasoned ours) growing up and I inherited it. The thing is at least 50-60 years old, I think.

He tried making it himself, now that I'd spent like two days cooking dosas on, multiple times a day. That thing was wellllll seasoned. He tried. It didn't work. He did the onion thing. Everything was gliding like magic again.

She made popcorn and used the KD seasoning packet. Everyone else, they at least made pasta and made some variation of macaroni and cheese. I can't blame Priya for not using Kraft, she's pretty obviously limited to what her parents are willing to bring into their house. They might be in a spot where Kraft isn't available in the store. She's not the only one, either - I think a couple others were using Annies instead of Kraft.

I find myself gravitating towards Brad and Claire for these challenges because they don't mind admitting that they eat like total trash humans, which is my personal identity. I liked the pantry dessert episode... most of these recipes looked quite delicious and doable! That frozen key lime ball is amazing. Except for Delaney making a freaking cocktail, remind me why everyone in the comments is thirsty for this normcore again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-n9eZlwdx04

honestly her criticism of Kondo makes *way* more sense to me than her criticism of Tiegen. It's almost certainly true that Chrissy Tiegen's career has benefitted from being married to John Legend and being an attractive model but hiring a couple people to help make recipes isn't necessarily the same thing as "a content farm" and she seems to put a lot of work and time into what she does. She sold out but also it's hard to say that anyone who started with a food blog and ended with cookbooks and product lines and poo poo sold out because that's the goal of what you're doing. It's like The Pioneer Woman, who is probably the ideal career path for someone like that. On the other hand, a woman who got famous with "you need to get all of the dumb poo poo you don't use out of your house" all of a sudden making dumb poo poo you don't use is hilariously ironic.

Even then it's mocking a foreign cookbook author's poor English. Since she's with NYT she's probably fine but the backlash is going to sting. She also called out two racialized women as her examples. It's not a great look, but it's pretty much in line with the NYT brand so hey.

I don't think she was being racist. The guy doing the interview said she didn't do any accent whatsoever. It really was a bad reference to some book nobody read. Also I think she was just targeting two very successful women. Who else is there? Gwyneth Paltrow and Martha Stewart are old hat. Mari Kondo is the hip one to take down. I don't know anything about the other lady but she seems fine, no idea why anyone would dislike her.

Her defense was literally that she was mocking Eastern European English not Asian English so it’s fine, lol The only reason she backtracked at all is bc she found out about Teigen being exec producer of her show, she didn’t even apologize to Kondo at first. Her first “apology” was some mean girls nastiness about “I know I don’t stand for tearing down women and I don’t think you do, you would really like me IRL I am sure”. Gwyn literally was brought up in the interview and she didn’t go off like that about her, Marie barely has anything to do with food at all. She called her a bitch without even knowing the concept of her work! That’s not criticism Yakiniku Teishoku fucked around with this message at 08:00 on May 18, 2020 |

Oh, it was way more than three times. You are not wrong in the least. I actually love your chutzpa. I would just like some refuge from accepting your truth for once. Food television is a sacred place, where people go for comfort. This can't be reconciled with the fact that for people who are victims of abuse, they don't have the option to flip on and off their bothered switch, it's a lived reality. So, you are totally right, and righteous, even. Are there some not racist cooks we can talk about instead?
