Food Thread: Nuts! Anthony McAuliffe Would Be Proud
I have extolled the virtues of the Brit's "Sunday Roast," and have recommended that we embrace it and improve upon it here in America. The Ritual of Sunday Roast
The classic meal is a gray-weather-soothing, all-day-eating, then veg-on-the-couch-in-a-food-coma affair (think Thanksgiving, if it came once a week), and the communing around slabs of roast meat is a remarkably sturdy tradition—one that’s survived mad cow disease and the new appreciation in Britain for healthy (even vegan) eating and remains a nostalgic bulwark against the spread of American-style brunch.Yup...The Sunday Pub Roasts I have attended were conspicuous in their overindulgence of wonderful, fatty, rich, alcoholic comestibles, and even more conspicuously short on healthy alternatives. It's almost as if people like to eat good food and drink good booze and have a good time, and are less concerned with the politics of food (because that is what veganism is: pure politics). I don't appreciate the shot at American brunch though. It's not that big a deal in many parts of the country.
I like looking at these sorts of things because they are usually total crap, and this one stays true to form. My first hint was the incorrect conversions for weights and volumes. But it is, as you have probably already guessed, just clickbait. But a six-month Gold Membership with Ampersand utility for anyone who can find three glaring errors. 152 Things You Must Know In the Kitchen -- Ultimate Guide Hat Tip: Misanthropic Humanitarian (although I think he was trolling me)
Arby's Makes Meat-Based Carrot in Response to Fake-Meat Food Trend
“Arby’s is not one of the restaurant companies interested in working with Impossible Foods,” Arby’s said in a statement this May. “The chances we will bring plant-based menu items to our restaurants, now or in the future, are absolutely impossible.” In fact, Arby’s is so opposed to the idea of plant-based meats, that they’ve decided to essentially troll the entire fake-meat industry by creating a fake vegetable, called a “megetable.”
Hat Tip: Bitter Clinger
I absolutely love when market forces are unleashed to fix a problem.
Putting purple sea urchins on the menu could save California's kelp forest
But because it is California, it gets stupid:
The reason for this growth in numbers of the purple sea urchins comes down to rising sea temperatures, but also a disease that affected the sunflower sea star, the urchins' predators.When in doubt, blame global warming! Never mind that there is another perfectly reasonable and far simpler explanation for the increase in the sea urchin population. I spent an amazingly painful few hours in the ER, having a bunch of their spines removed from my heel. They went through my fin strap, through my bootie, and deep into my foot. So anything that knocks down their population makes me a happy (and vengeful) abalone diver.

One reason I'm kind of passionate about learning to make a lot of tasty things at home that I can get from other places here, is because I have a hunch that when I finally get to (or have to) leave CA, I'll end up somewhere with significantly fewer fast food and restaurant options.
I especially want to teach myself to make great pizza, wings and Chicago dogs at home.

One of the DC area's attractions is that formerly exotic ingredients are now commonplace. I've got both green and black cardamom, and they're really cheap at the local Asian grocery (H-Mart), as is a far better selection of produce than at the local Giant (*spit*). I've definitely switched to Wegman's, and will only darken Giant's door if I need one thing, since they're much closer. At this point, they're a glorified 7-11.

Lots of fancy cattle farms (they are not ranches!) in the midlands,and the border country with Scotland. Saw plenty of a wide variety of cattle on my recent train trip from Edinburgh to London.
Some Angus, some short-horn, and a few dairy cattle: those were mostly Holstein, with a few Jersey cows.

Pep, what did giant do? I'm not up on this.
Every experience I have with them is negative.
I judge a market on three things, and they'd better have at least one of them.
1) Price
2) Selection
3) Service
Giant flunks in every category. I think the thing that irks me the most is that the cashiers now don't even put the groceries in the cart. I have to direct them to do it every time. Could I do it myself? Sure. But when your prices are high, and your selection is low, it's a poor business strategy to suck at service.
Wegmans: pricy, but good service and selection
Costco: cheap, but limited service and selection
H-Mart: awesome selection and low prices
Giant: LOLGF

Butter + mayo. Butter for the bottom piece, and it toasts up nicely while it does 80% of the cooking. The mayo is for the top part, because it toasts it up while finishing the melted cheese, without burning.

You may be surprised. When I left a metropolitan area and went into the boonies, I found plenty of great restaurants. There are practically no mediocre ones and never any bad ones. The locals won't keep it going in the off-season.
Also, if your local community college has a culinary arts degree, you can find good food in the vicinity.

Serving the beans on the side is like giving someone a cheeseburger with a a slice of lettuce, and tomato on the side, that they are necessarily going to eat with the cheeseburger.

That dish is called "chili mac", or at least it is when the chili is served over the mac. It seems to be a Midwestern phenomenon...there used to be a chain in Chicago called "Bishop's Famous Chili" which offered it as a menu option and I don't think they were the only ones because everyone I knew in that city seemed to be familiar with the concept even if they had never been to Bishop's.

FWIW, I did make the apple-upside-down gingerbread recipe from King Arthur Flour this week. (Moki--I'll try Ina's recipe next time.) Liked the apple in gingerbread, but we both decided we'd prefer chunks of spiced apple mixed in with the gingerbread instead.
And this is completely a personal idiosyncrasy I know, but I hate hominy with the heat of a thousand suns. Partly the taste but largely the texture. Even in covered up with all of the other stuff in posole and menudo.

Stuff green chilis with Monterey jack and sharp cheddar, layer in pan and then add eggs/cream mixture. Bake
I think the technical name is Chili Jose.

Not much. It's a red sauce. make a rue, add water and small can of tom puree, bunch of cumin, oregano, chili powder, little oregano, chili's of choice, sour creme just before assembly. bake 325 or so till bubbly and melty Fried egg or dolop of sour creme on top. BEWARE, it comes out hot out of the oven.

You know what? I'm a total outlier on that. If I've eaten before I go food shopping, nothing appeals to me and even if I have a list, I think no, we don't really need that. And then I get home and I've barely gotten anything.
I will say that I do have pretty good willpower when I go to Costco. I see tons of stuff that I would love to buy but I don't.
Now, if they would be giving away chocolate or something, my willpower would sail right out the window. But so far, they haven't done so.

I just looked in my old Joy of Cooking, and for an entire chicken they use 3/4 cup chopped onion (or 1/2 cup pearl onions) plus 3 minced shallots.
I think that's probably way less oniony than 14 oz. of shallots would be. I'm intrigued, though.

The casserole was pretty good, flavor-wise. However, it needs tweaking--a lot of tweaking. After it finished cooking, it was literally swimming in grease, most of which probably came from all the cheddar separating, but also the butter and cream (definitely too much butter.) I drained the grease off and served it up because it was all I had at the ready, and it did smell great, and like I said, it tasted pretty good.

For pot roast try arm roast, we used to use Chuck but my wife prefers arm. I think it's because it's better marveled not just big chunks of fat. We never tried round roast for pot roast as it's not fatty enough. Maybe that's just our Midwestern taste. Always used to be Chuck but now we use arm roast it's great. Now I'm hungry for some.

I saw a recipe for chicken n dumplins that used mashed taters as thickening agent. Was a depression era recipe. It was good.

Mom's version of this:
Beef brisket, potatoes and/or turnips, carrots, onions.
Pressured cooked because plain brisket. (Cheap! back in the day...)
Don't know what spices she might've used, if any besides s&p. No matter what-all veggies she put in, it tasted the same. Not bad, but rather bland.
At least there was protein and enough of it to go around.

Looking more closely, the original looks like it might be a little dry, which is why she added the cream and the butter. But you're right, 1/4 cup cream and 1/4 cup butter along with 1 cup cheese sounds like too much for two people. And you made it bigger, so it must have been swimming in it!
I'll try the one you did, but cut way back on the goo.

Not advisable, Ben.

I wish no harm to the young man and it is why they call it basic training. Best thing that ever happened to me. I hope he looks back with pride as I do.

What do you recommend for Thanksgiving dinner for only 2, possibly 3 (4 at most) persons, besides cornish hens?
I'm so so so tired and don't want a huge production, but would like something *special* and semi-traditional...

Couple of fancy places come to mind, should check and see how early reservations must be made, if not too late already.

Why not just do an Oven Stuffer Roaster. It will look like a tiny turkey and arguably will taste better. Plus, you can stuff it as well. Leftovers will be a manageable amount, and there' nothing like a chicken/stuffing/gravy sandwich for lunch on Friday.
Posted by: IrishEi at October 13, 2019 09:33 PM (sGotD)
Suppose our guest(s) probably don't get it as often, so this is a likely alternative.
Not a real fan of Turkey anyway, and gosh even the small ones are still so huge!
