This sushi joint I'm going to tomorrow has Camembert Tempura on the menu. I'm gonna try making my own batch but I dunno how I'm gonna keep instant-melt cheese contained in tempura batter. None of the recipes I've found say to freeze the cheese first so :shrug: we'll do it live

pretty much anything you are going to fry can be prepped and frozen ahead if time. theres no way a restaurant is breading and frying anything to order unless it’s dead simple.

Alright goons, I got my tax return, so I'm wanting to get a bread maker and possibly a good book of bread recipes to go with it. Any suggestions?

not sure how much you plan to spend but rather than a bread machine i would suggest finally throwing down on a good stand mixer. other posts have suggested a good dutch oven and while that should be a part of your kitchen you can get the same effect for bread baking by putting a hot water bath in your oven.

there’s a lot of good books out there but the one i would suggest for someone new to bread baking is The Bread Baker’s Apprentice by Peter Reinhart. the first 100ish pages of this book are basically a textbook so you can get a good grasp of the entire process and it also has a lot of good illustrations if you find the directions unclear.

when it comes to flour king arthur is worth the extra cost although you should be able to find it for less than a dollar a pound.

i grew a bunch of hot peppers but now i don't really know what to do with them other than drying them for future use. i can use maybe one fresh pepper a week for cooking, but i'm hitting the limits of my repertoire here.

you can lactose ferment them in a 3% brine. you can then blend it all together a few weeks later with some vinegar and you have a nice hotsauce.
