i bought a 1lb package of active dry yeast at the beginning of the pandemic. it has sat in my freezer since then because i don't know the conversion of this presentation of yeast to packets/stuff that comes in little brown glass jars.

mediaphage posted:what do you like to make? for a standard loaf of lean bread or pizza dough i will do: yeah mostly everything is lean-dough centric in my mind. i learned how to make bread from the cartoon illustrations in molly katzen's enchanted broccoli forest. it's very hippy dippy, very 1982 alternative lifestyle, very just do it by feel.

Jonny 290 posted:bread terrifies me. I have never once been able to successfully make anything involving flour and yeast. I just can't do it and i can't be hosed to keep trying b/c its so disappointing every time. i follow the instructions exactly and things never rise, or its burnt outside raw inside, or whatever. this is a ways back, but i'd recommend molly katzen's enchanted broccoli forest. it has lovely illustrations of breadmaking it's been updated from it's extremely alternative lifestyle 1981 origins with things such as salt and somewhat less dairy, but you can still hear and feel the hippy crunch in every page.

pointsofdata posted:I add some salt, advice about when to do it in the cooking process seems to be mixed (and obv when making dhals etc. I add other spices/seasoning as appropriate despite the jokes up thread) - normally I just follow the instructions on the packet when I'm having them as a side. Stuff like this has a great texture with nothing other than salt, I'm convinced they do something differently, like use a pressure cooker or something: https://www.bio.coop/lentilles-vertes-450g-rc0834-000.html puy lentils take a little bit longer so maybe you need a bit more water and cook time. i usually do lentils in a pressure cooker rather than on the stove. bittman's basic braised lentil preperation is: 2 TBS olive oil 1/2 onion chopped 4 celery stalks with leaves, chopped 1 carrot, chopped 2 tsp minced garlic 1 bay leaf 1/2 cup dry white wine 2 c stock (chicken, beef, veg) or water 1 c dried brown lentils, picked over salt and pepper parsley for garnish sauté your veg in the olive oil add bay leaf, liquids and lentils bring to a boil cover partially, reduce heat to simmer, stir occasionally add liquid as needed and cook until desired tenderness (25-30 minutes) season with salt and pepper garnish with parsley

bob dobbs is dead posted:that one is just sugar and rice wine but its actually quite a distinct minority of uses of mirin where the quality matters a lot hon-mirin is hard to source and expensive. i honestly don't think you get a lot of bang for your buck out of it over using sake + sugar or aji mirin.

the nice thing about dosa batter is you can just make up a batch and after overnight fermentation (instant pot set to yogurt ~12hours with glass lid, or in the oven if you have a pilot light, or just on the counter if you live someplace warm), put it in the fridge and use it for the next 3-4 days. if you don't have a giant flattop/tava for majestic dosa manufacture, an uttapam is the same batter just in a different presentation, so it's a little more suited for your average frying pan.

AnimeIsTrash posted:Yeah wtf, this is the first i'm hearing of it to. I'm going to get a jar and start using it excessively. I use better than bullion or some bullion powder I get from the store for my lentils and beans normally. amazon has it too if you can't find it in your store. it's like eight bucks and change for a jar, but you get a lot of value out of it. better than bullion is quality overall other than the beef, lobster, and ham bases. those are meh to yuck in my opinion.

I did the confit pork shoulder and every fragment of meat is 100% done to perfection. helen rennies criticism of roasting and braising pork shoulder were spot on. the vast majority of the fat rendered out and all the meat was basted. it should have been more strongly spiced/seasoned, but my pork shoulder was a two pack so once I work my way through five pounds of confit pork I can experiment with increasing the seasoning.

do a no knead dough or let the dough come to temp and and relax for 15 minutes. if you knead it before rolling it out it's going to tighten up.
