Work should be illegal on Funday.

This suggests that this has happened often enough that they felt it necessary to specify this.

My wife's chicken ginger soup. Really comforting.

Middle Earth is flat. When they sail to the Undying Lands, they actually just fall off the edge.

Why keep them if no one can read?

Everyone should watch the movie Waiting at least once. And not just for the penis showing game.

Great suggestion. Def do this if you need more variety.

95% of the time I eat the exact same breakfast every day which I think would bore most people.

It takes a while for me to get sick of things, but yes, I def mix it up. Sometimes I'll do burrito bowls, other times I'll do "fried" rice (not much oil if any - mostly lean meat, rice, veggies, and spices). Sometimes I'll do pasta with meat sauce. I go through phases for sure.

Chili! I make a big pot of chili every week and have it for lunch and/or dinner. I call it quick chili because it's really easy to throw together without much fuss - 2 bags of frozen onions and peppers, 2-3 cans of beans, lean ground meat, a big jar of salsa, BBQ sauce, powdered bullion, granulated garlic, and chili powder (and maybe also cumin and oregano - depends on how lazy I am that day).

Also, I will cook up a batch of rice for the week, and also several proteins (chicken breasts, burger patties, pork loin, etc). I combine the proteins and rice with frozen veggies and/or beans to make quick meals.

Useful meetings? Yes. Useless? No.

Virtual Chopped? (lemmy.world)
submitted 2 weeks ago* (last edited 1 week ago) by TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world to c/cooking@lemmy.world
 

I used to play a game with fellow home cooks and chefs way back in the MySpace days (but we called it Virtual Iron Chef... I feel like it's more like Chopped, but I guess the name doesn't matter).

Anyway, the way it works is you are presented with a list of ingredients. You create a tasting menu using those ingredients. Each ingredient must be used at least once, and each course must contain at least one of the ingredients. Menus can consist of 3 to 6 courses. Anyone who posts a menu gets to compete. Voting takes place over 2 days. Obviously the sooner you get a menu in the more potential you have for up votes.

Note: Rule above about number of menus and time limit were modified to better accommodate people submitting menus and giving people time to vote.

People vote by upvoting the menu they like the best. After the alotted period of time a winner is selected. The winner then gets to select a list of ingredients (the winner cannot compete during this round) and the game continues.

Would anyone want to play? Here is an example:

  • Lamb
  • Trout
  • Ketchup
  • Rice
  • Tarragon
  • Egg
  • Blueberries
  • Caramel
  • Spinach

Amuse: Onsen quail egg. Togarashi. Hollondaise.

Appetizer: Yuzu cured trout. Tarragon and sesame oil. Crispy shallot.

Main: Spicy lamb lap chang. Sichuan dusted lamb chop. Ketchup fried rice. Fried spinach.

Dessert: Custard ice cream. Blueberry sorbet. Soy sauce caramel. Tarragon crumble.

 

I saw that our front door camera detected motion, so I looked at the video and saw this. I genuinely thought it was some sort of goblin or something running down the stairs towards our gate.

Easily one of if not the best chocolate ice creamy things I've put in my mouth, including other chocolate ice creams. I made my batch with water so that the chocolate flavor would be more "pure" and added a shot of espresso. It turned out great in my Ninja Creami.

 

Potato starch noodle recipe: https://www.chinasichuanfood.com/handmade-potato-noodles/

For my chili crisp:

  • 1/2c vegetable oil
  • 1tbsp soy sauce
  • 1tbsp black vinegar
  • 1/2tbsp brown sugar
  • 1tbsp sichuan peppercorns, ground
  • 1tsp ground cumin
  • 1tsp chicken bouillon (or just use salt and some msg)
  • 1tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1tbsp ginger, minced
  • 2tbsp gochugaru
  • 4 chile de arbol, coursely ground (adjust up or down based on how spicy you like it)
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 6 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • Note: chopped peanuts are a great addition to this - I am allergic, so I leave them out, but you should consider adding them

Mix together gochugaru, ginger, brown sugar, and spices in a heat proof container. Heat oil over medium heat. Add garlic, cook and stir often until you start to see some color, then strain them out and put them on a paper towel to drain. Add onions to oil and repeat process. Heat oil to 375F or until smoking, then pour into the rest of the ingredients and stir. Add the onion and garlic to it when the mixture has cooled off a bit.

For the main dish:

  • 2tbsp oil drained off of the chili crisp
  • 1tbsp soy sauce
  • 1tbsp black vinegar
  • 1/2tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 to 1/2lb protein of choice
  • Boiled potato starch noodles
  • veggies and chili crisp to garnish

Heat oil over medium high heat. Add your protein and cooked to desired doneness. Add the soy sauce and vinegar and cook til it reduces. Add the noodles and just toss to coat.

We had this with some veggies we had on hand (cucumber and radish) and garnished with cilantro and chili crisp.

I used Kenji López-Alt's recipe, but did it in my BGE and smoked it a bit. Here's the final product:

When I do this again, I would make two adjustments. One is that I'll cook it to an internal temp of 175F to make it more tender (Kenji's recipe called for 165 which I feel is too low). The other adjustment l'll make is to crisp/puff up the skin a different way. It was too difficult to crisp evenly using the rotisserie, so next time I may pour hot oil over it or take a Searzall to it instead.

 

Or maybe you still love it, but now you have a different perspective.
