Prime rib is the dish you can make with a rib roast.

Sous vide is fine if it's like 2 bones or smaller, but reverse sear is just fine.

Edit: here's the reverse seared one I did last week



It was Kenji's guidelines. Salt and on the rack the night before, roasted as low as my oven could get until it hit 130, rested for a half hour and then in the oven at 500F for like 6 minutes.

Stores that have an actual meat counter can usually cut you whatever size you want, just gotta ask.

Heya thread, are there any good suggestions for low carb breakfast foods? My brother wants to get together once a month for breakfast (homemade for now cause, you know) and he’s been doing a low carb diet so I’m kinda struggling to think of much that isn’t just, like fruit salad or maybe quiche?

Microplanes are trash for softer cheeses like mozzarella.

I have a oxo box grater and it does the job just fine for carrots and mozzarella


Edit: for large amounts I use the shredding tool on my food processor

May I please just vent like a crazy person for a minute about how annoying it is sometimes to find basic numbers on google?

I just wanted to know a temperature for safe sous vide chicken breast and got so many paragraphs about "coming in from a crisp fall day" and "how my grandma used to eat food before her mind finally went."



You really should be prepared for that with any The Food Lab article. Kenji has never given a short straight answer to anything in his life. You'll get 15 paragraphs on the what the why and the many different hows that you could do for a given subject. Especially with things like sousvide cooking.


Edit: also what Anne Whateley said.


It's a valid complaint about a lot of things in the cooking world, but for things like sous vide cooking or canning or curing, you really should not trust the first random quick answer you get off Google. None of what you quoted was the bullshit "on a fall day" or "my grandma's favorite" or "On 9/11 I was"

I understand and even appreciate the long stories about the family recipe from an ownership standpoint, my biggest issue with these recipe sites is that between the long stories, pop-ups, long white gaps where ads should load but don't, and ads that load late so scrolling gets messed up, these sites are absolutely hell to use on mobile, which is what you're most likely using unless you drag your laptop to the kitchen, filled with dust and liquids.

A local Hmong grocery posted that they got these fruits in, and apparently it's very popular with Hmong/Lao people.






Apparently it's txiv kub nyuj, or cow/bull horn fruit. They're kind of fascinating. The texture reminds me of unripe mango, or maybe a very crisp apple or celery without the strings. The flavor is reminiscent of granny smith apple and rhubarb, with a very dry, astringent finish.

After thinking on it and eating another one for breakfast, they definitely remind me of a super underripe crabapple in flavor and texture.

Mmm, sounds great. Are you sure it was ripe?

I'm not sure if they ripen further, but the lady selling em said they are ready to eat, and the videos I've seen of ppl eating em, it looks pretty much the same as what I have.

It makes sense to me that its popular, a lot of Hmong dishes are to the extremes of flavor, there's gonna be dips and dishes that are insanely sour, or salty, or blow your rear end off spicy, and they're meant to be eaten in small amounts with piles of bland, like sticky rice and steamed or fresh veg.

Food chat: what's your favorite camping food? I tend to camp heavy, with cast iron dutch oven that I love to do either beef stew or sausage and beans in. Just got a lighter weight Stanley cookset. I got a book on making dehydrated camp meals, and want to try stews utilizing dried meat and veg. Any excuse to poke a fire while drinking box wine from a tin cup...

For car camping and having a cooler around, I love doing foil packets of veg/taters/meat, as well as tossing a huge stack of tortillas and eggs in and having breakfast burritos and pb wraps all day.

For actual backpacking, I mainly survive on tortillas, peanut butter, instant oatmeal, a flask of bourbon, and some sort of sugary candy like skittles or m&ms. Last fall I found some instant bibimbap rations online, and that was pretty fuckin delicious after a long day of hiking. Some of the freeze dried brands are getting to be pretty edible, esp if you pack a bottle of hot sauce along with.

I'm a p big fan of impossible meat. It doesn't scratch the same itch as a standard classic burger w/ like onion, pickle, ketchup, mustard or whatev. It has a not-meaty enough flavor to be noticeable. But, if I want something stronger like a mushroom swiss or a pile of burg sauce or something, impossible has been great. The texture is spot on and when paired with other strong flavors, it's a good enough meat substitute for me.

The Sandwich Scandal at the Heart of the World’s Greatest Golfing Event

:lol: I love people being super petty over recipes

quote:


The greatest event in sports history is missing a vital recipe: that of its original pimento cheese sandwich.


The problem began more than 20 years ago, when the Masters chose not to renew the contract for the tournament’s longtime pimento cheese vendor, Nick Rangos. Afterward, the caterer refused to share his private recipe, taking its secret to his grave in 2015. Although Ted Godfrey, Rangos’s replacement, worked tirelessly to approximate the original masterpiece, he also withheld his recipe after the Masters replaced him with in-house catering in 2013.

According to Godfrey, his quest to recreate Rangos’s original took months. “I can’t tell you how many 35-dollar cases of cheese we’d been through,” he told ESPN. After countless attempts failed to satisfy the concessions committee, a tournament worker stepped forward with a frozen batch of Rangos’s original pimento spread.

Then in 2013, the Masters changed course a third time, taking all concessions in-house—again, for reasons we cannot confirm. And again, the embittered pimento czar withheld the recipe from the Masters.

My girlfriend has never had wagyu so I was thinking about ordering an A5 ribeye so she could experience it. What would be the ideal way to prepare it? Just searing it off as a whole ribeye seems unexciting. I’ve seen videos where they cut it into smaller pieces and sear those on all sides. Is that the way to go? Just S&P? Salt and togarashi? Soy sauce while searing? If I do this I’d rather not gently caress it up.

The fancy teppanyaki style stuff is a pretty good way to serve wagyu.
