When you're craving Frito pie, but your girlfriend wants a fancy dinner.



Made another batch of venison chili, and still had Fritos lying around, so deconstructed Frito pie it is! I had a normal bowl after this.

If you're 'into' reddit there's a sub called shittyfoodporn that has 2 kinds of posts:

1. just lovely ugly food like hot dog weiners without buns slathered in sauce, or salsa chicken in a crock pot.
2. people that do what you did with a deliberately 'lovely' but funny effort post.

This is good stuff.

yeh due to my reputation I didn't wanna call it but they're sausage sizzles in Victoria too. Although even in NSW 'sausage sizzle' is usually reserved for an 'event' usually a charity or fundraising event by an organization (including Bunnings). Not normally applied to a private cooking venture.

Your proximity to sea level probably has something to do with the slight variation as well. Adjust accordingly, it's not hard. A single egg costs what, 50 cents if you're buying super expensive pastured happy chicken eggs?

I might try this but with removing the fat cap at some point to try and crisp it up separately. Seems like such a waste not to try and make crackling out of it.

Do you think mixing in some corn starch to the braising liquid when serving could work?

Combination of having drunk cravings and being on keto means improvising with pizzaburgs.



Speaking from experience keto is more effective and better for you if you eat some vegetables too. Helps with the pooping too. Do you get your dense greens in when not drunkenly craving?

Wiener Schnitzel and fries with mushroom gravy, I was trying to replicate this dish I got once at a german truck stop / motel in the early 2000s


If there's a sauce/gravy I think it's called Jäger schnitzel, though if you actually used veal like a proper wiener schnitzel and not pork then I'm not so sure. Did you shallow fry it in butter/clarified butter?

My wife got home today after being away for a week and a half, which is the longest we'd been apart since we started dating.

I made beef short rib ravioli!
Egg, flour, olive oil dough
Braised the short rib for 5 hours with mushroom, onion, beef broth, and white wine, then after it cooled I drained it and added marscapone and asiago - that was my filling.
Then I made a mushroom and marsala cream sauce to serve it in.

Turned out pretty goddamn delicious. Welcome home :)

Don't believe you.

Sorry, it's just a pet peeve of mine. For how many episodes of Chopped and other cooking competitions I've watched, and these ostensibly experienced cooks/chefs and food lovers of all sorts (including some celebrity types) and they pronounce it "MARSE-kuh-pone", it just drives me up the fuckin' wall.

It's the culinary equivalent of why Brett Favre's name is pronounced the way it is.

My contribution is the broth on the left; made a chicken and pork broth from scratch (chicken wings, pork neck bones, onion, celery, carrot, peppercorns).

Tonight's noms are bacon-wrapped pork tenderloin with steamed asparagus and hominy sauteed in bacon grease. I adore this hominy recipe. It's like candy to me.

Ingredients from that I did tonight:

1 lb bacon, cut into pieces
2 30oz cans of hominy, drained
1 bulb (not clove, BULB. gently caress you "one clove of garlic" motherfuckers) of garlic, minced
4 stalks of green onions, sliced up
Pepper and salt to taste

1. Fry up the bacon on medium-high until most of the fat has become liquid and the bacon is mostly cooked, whichever comes last.
2. Add the garlic and green onions, and stir until fragrant, about 2 minutes.
3. Add the hominy and coat it with the bacon grease. Sautee at medium for 10-15 minutes, stirring regularly, adding salt and pepper as necessary.

Obviously, you're supposed to do about half of that but gently caress it, this stuff is awesome.

I don't believe you made this.

I think with shanghai soup dumplings they don't add water but rather some kind of other liquid that at cold/room temp is more solid but when steamed/heated up becomes liquid.

Skirt steak carne asada.

I typically use flank steak, but went for skirt this time. Problem was, it was crazy tough. Almost inedible. Cooked SV @131F for 8 hours, finished on the grill. I used Kenji's marinade in the SV bag. I'm kind of baffled. Anyone have any ideas?

So pretty

I don't know, I remember having pate from a casing since I was a kid, I guess we were poor! I wanted that kind of smooth pate that comes in a casing, this one was the rustic kind that's a bit overpriced because of what you point out.

liverwurst is cheap and good pate. It comes in plastic casing and is very spreadable.

Maybe the reason you always set off the smoke alarm is that you're using olive oil and also you never clean your pan jesus christ clean your goddamn pan

Also don't put pepper on until its out of the pan and resting.

I generally don’t cook animal protein until it’s fully tempered at room temperature, like 1-2 hours sitting out of the fridge minimum, then you can do the whole thing in the pan and it’s fine.

Depends how thick the steak is. Too thin, then don't bring it all the way up to room temp. Very thick? Might still require some oven time. Or just reverse sear or sous vide it.

quote:

You can try putting the butter in the pan with some thyme and spooning the butter over the steak as it sears. This gives you a better flavor. The fat strip on the outside is the first thing the pan should touch because the rendered fat from it is what the steak cooks in (plus butter right before the steaks go in). You don’t need to add fat to fat (no olive oil).

Just don't do this with a ripping hot cast iron, lest you want burned butter.

Warm water, bit of soap, soft sponge, hand dry immediately and put it back on the heat, let it heat up then oil it. Don't listen to anyone that says this ruins the seasoning. You can skip the soap I guess. There's no lye in modern soap though.
