Do you folks ever put parsnips and potatoes in the same stew/braise/whatever and then you get absolutely thrilled and chilled by the mystery from one pale cube to the next?

Parsnips, turnips, and potatoes, all cut to about the same size. :v:

Parsnip and carrot mash is legit

My Mema used to do this on purpose in her take on a brunswick stew and called it an Adventure Pot. Sometimes she'd put a few random peeled radishes in to see who was paying attention. It always tasted like you were eating stewed compost.

My god I miss that woman.

I had some kind of super whipped parsnip mash awhile ago that must have been half heavy cream by weight given how mousse like it was.

Not to distract from root veg chat, but there's no reason I couldn't use lime juice instead of lemon juice in a ginger beer recipe right?

correct and in fact it is good

Sure, just start with 25% less, then taste and add more lime or sugar as desired. Lime juice starts with a bit less sugar on its own but most recipes have so much added sugar it'll be negligible.

Lemon has less citric acid and more sugar than lime? Why is it more sour?

it’s going to vary by variety and growth season too. for example i did a perfunctory google and got an endourology (i mean. lol clearly they were journal shopping this because it’s barely science) paper with this quote:

“Lemon juice and lime juice are rich sources of citric acid, containing 1.44 and 1.38 g/oz, respectively. Lemon and lime juice concentrates contain 1.10 and 1.06 g/oz, respectively.”

anyway i wouldn’t bother changing how much juice you add

Citrus fruits also contain ascorbic acid too (vitamin C), which lemons are higher in. I don't know how they came to the conclusion lemons have less citric acid though unless they're cherry picking specific types or something.

To crossover both chats, last night we made Greek lemon roasted chicken, but instead of potatoes we used rutabagas and carrots. It was good.

There's also malic acid (tart apple sensation), higher in limes than lemons. Not sure what the natural variation among individual plants / fruits are for each of those, along with sugar content.

Ascorbic acid is there, yeah, but it's not as tart a sensation so I think it's a minor effect.

Also, if you fresh squeeze may get oils from accidentally expressing the zest that'd add another x-factor, hence the gently caress around and find out approach

imo none of the variations aside from flavour will matter in a sugary soda in part because the amount of citric acid so vastly outweighs the effect of everything else. here’s one survey example

I have tried both and found the lime flavour too intrusive, but it definitely still works. It's a matter of taste. (mediaphage is wrong).

Well the lime juice is already in the bottle so its up to fate and yeast now.

At the request of my wife, I made soufflés last night. They were delicious, but now I can’t stop thinking about how a handful of extra ingredients and tweaking some steps turns a cheese soufflé into a plate of biscuits and sausage gravy with cheesy scrambled eggs on the side.

runny cheese souffle with biscuits on the side and sausages is really good too.

I added some orange to the veg I had underneath a sirloin roast awhile ago and it was the worst idea for this reason. I was thinking that the acid would bring up some of the sweetness of the other flavours but it ended up just being a surprise that wasn't wholly desired.

I don’t normally love those baby potatoes but this is an excellent use case for them. I use them when I make viking chicken so that I don’t have to guess what’s apple and what’s tater
