Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | Food Thread: Haggis...The Other White(ish) MeatFor every creature's want! We bless Thee, God of Nature wide, For all Thy goodness lent: And if it please Thee, Heavenly Guide, May never worse be sent; But, whether granted, or denied, Lord, bless us with content. Amen! -- Robert Burns If you think that Robert Burns Day is simply a vehicle for a discussion of Haggis, you would be mostly correct. And while it is Scotland's most famous dish, and one that is unfairly reviled, the Scots have a bit of a food tradition, and not just fried candy bars. And yes, I have had one or two, and they are every bit as good as one would imagine! There is a recipe below the fold for "Cullen Skink," which is a marvelous smoked fish soup from Scotland. I have mentioned it before and I will undoubtedly mention it again, because it is easy and delicious. It's easy to make fun of Scottish cuisine because so much of it seems so familiar to us, and that makes sense because a fair number of Americans can trace their lineage back to Scotland and England and Ireland, which share some culinary traditions, though not a common language. But the English are doing wonderful things in their kitchens, and so are the Scots. Maybe not cutting edge stuff that, let's face it, nobody eats, but good quality traditional foods upgraded with some newer techniques and great quality ingredients. Just take a stroll through a farmers market and you will see what I mean. It's happening here also (and has been for years)! But back to Bobby Burns! Eat Haggis. Really. It's fantastic. There are lots of recipes, so poke a round to find one you like. The smoked haddock is easy to make if you have a smoker or a smoke box for your grill, so don't buy it. Hell, you can use cod if necessary, and that is everywhere. Cullen Skink - A traditional Scottish Smoked Haddock Soup It's a perfect meal for a cold and blustery winter night, or July in Scotland. One of the many conceits of much of the professional food world is that simple cooking needs to be upgraded and modified (by them) to rise to the level of excellent. But that simply isn't so. Corn Bread Casserole There is nothing in this recipe that the greatest chefs in the world can get that you can't, and I'll bet that your supermarket frozen corn is better than all but the best high summer fresh corn. This is good food, easy to make, has no expensive ingredients or weird techniques, everybody has the pan you need, so what's not to love? I tried it this morning...Baking Powder Is the Secret to Perfect Scrambled Eggs...and son of a bitch! it works! Obligatory Super Bowl Recipe Queso, Not From a Jar It looks pretty good, although I think the stuff out of the jar or from the Velveeta package recipe is fine eating. Speaking of which... Food and cooking tips, Large-breasted Muscovy ducks, well-marbled NY strips, bartenders who use vermouth in Martinis, crisp bacon (although I am moving toward less crisp), thick and fluffy pita, and good tomatoes that aren't square, pale pink and covered with Mestizo E.coli: cbd dot aoshq at gmail dot com. Any advocacy of French Toast with syrup will result in disciplinary action up to and including being nuked from orbit. And yes, shaking a Manhattan is blasphemy...it's in the Bible! Addendum KT tells me that Bok Choi is actually Brassica Rapa so I was completely wrong about them all being one species. But it serves you right for reading the content. That's for amateurs.

With regard to the "hamburger", at some point, and I've think that picture reaches it, you've transitioned from a burger to meat loaf with some cheese on it. The bread is a doughy garnish.
It's sort of like the pastrami "sandwiches" you see at some NY delis. It's a pile of meat. Posted by: pep at January 26, 2020 04:06 PM (T6t7i) Posted by: Jewells45 at January 26, 2020 04:06 PM (dUJdY) 21

Scrambled eggs:
For the lightest, fluffiest eggs EVAH!.... 2 or 3 eggs, salt and pepper, regular milk and..... put them in a blender and whip for 30 seconds until they froth on top. Personally I use a small Ninja blender and it works perfectly. Final touch (if you have it) cook the eggs in bacon drippings. Posted by: TANSTAAFL at January 26, 2020 04:10 PM (T09ml) 32
Dug up an old cookbook that someone in my husband's family was going to toss out and finally took a good look at it. Italian Gourmet Cooking by "Master Chef Pasquale Carpino whom I have never heard up but looked up. I guess he used to be on TV. It's an interesting book. Some unique recipes, but also fairy easy recipes with mostly common ingredients. It's always fun to find new recipes. The book was published in 1980, quite a while ago. It was one of my husband's great aunt's cookbook who had passed away years ago. The best part are all of the notes she made, and all of the inserts of recipes from newspaper clippings and handwritten recipes and notes stuffed inside it. A treasure.

Wanted to pass this along. I heard another chef talking about this on a video and found a link.
Sprinkling Seasonings from High Up How high you hold your hand makes all the difference when it comes to seasoning. https://tinyurl.com/yxyg7uf8 Ever notice that some chefs season food by sprinkling it from a good foot above the counter? Is this just kitchen theatrics, or is there a reason behind this practice? We sprinkled chicken breasts with ground black pepper from different heights--4 inches, 8 inches, and 12 inches--and found the higher the starting point, the more evenly the seasoning was distributed. And the more evenly the seasoning is distributed, the better food tastes. some picts at the Cook's Illustrated link Just a fun tidbit of info.

I had beef ribs, oxtails and soup bones I wanted to use up so I made one of Lidia's beef stew recipes. Took 4 hours yesterday to get the meat tender, spent the morning picking meat off the bones. It's good but a giant pain in the butt. There was a ton of fat to get rid of and I got to try my new fat separator. Way better than the old style pour types.

Yay! Food Thread!
Here at Chez RMBS (aka The Fortress of Legal Solitude), I can report a perfect sous vide steak experiment last night. In fact, the hot water from my tap was hotter than the desired end temp, so I had to let it cool down before cooking. Go figure. A beef tongue is curing in the fridge for a braised beef tongue and lentils next weekend. And I checked out an amazing local butcher shop, recommended by a coworker, that carries everything from the normal stuff to alligator, wild boar roasts, whole goose, duck and pheasant, and a host of other hard to find items at incredibly good prices. This place will be a regular stop from now on. Posted by: RedMindBlueState at January 26, 2020 04:27 PM (rBtIz) 101

Yeah, the burger thing.
The burger is something that you can hold in one hand and eat while you are driving. It is ok if it is and has to be in a wrapper to do so, but delicious as that thing looks upthread, it is excluded from the Platonic ideal of the hamburger. Posted by: not so at January 26, 2020 04:28 PM (HALdu) 104

The story's told that in merry olde England, a NHS inspector was checking out a hospital. Guided by a resident doctor, most of the wards seem okay.
With one ward to go, the doctor's pager goes off and the doctor prepares to run to an emergency. The inspector decides to proceed, and asks the doctor to join him as soon as is practical. He enters this final ward, and things seem to be okay, but then one of the patients wanders up with a frown on his face and says "Fair fa' your honest, sonsie face, Great chieftain o the puddin'-race!" and then stalks away. The inspector was a bit startled by this, but carries on checking the facilities until an equally grim looking chap wandered up and said "Wee, sleekit, cowrin, tim'rous beastie, O, what a pannic's in thy breastie!" and then he strode away. Beginning to get worried, a third intense man walks up and says "The rank is but the guinea's stamp, The man's the gowd for a' that" so he turns for the door, just as the doctor arrived back. "I thought we'd done the psychiatric wards" said the inspector. "What do you mean? This is the serious Burns unit."

So I asked this earlier and got some useful feed back but would appreciate some more if anyone has any.
1. So, question for the old'uns. In the movie Holiday Inn there is a scene early in the movie where Bing Crosby goes into the dressing room of his fiance and notices that the hooks on the back of her dress are not hooked in the correct order and the hook at the top is unhooked. Soon thereafter Fred Astaire goes into her dressing room and notices the same thing about the hooks. SPOILER ALERT Is there something about the hooks that suggests that she is not committed or that she is romantically flighty since she dumps both Crosby and Astaire? Thanks *I deliberately avoided asking if it meant she was a slut or a whore because I kind of like the movie and did not want to get into that or what the modern day version would have had Crosby and Astaire doing to her in the dressing room. 2. thanks for the info. Not sure if you are familiar with the movie. When Bing noticed he was engaged to the girl to be married that night or the next day. Fred noticed, right after Bing when he, Fred went into the same girl's dressing room to discuss how she was dumping Bing that night to be with Fred. Then about a year later she dumps Fred to run off with a Texan from Texas. thanks Posted by: not so at January 26, 2020 04:49 PM (HALdu) 184

Going to be spending some time there for work and trying to decide where to stay and maybe even buy since there seem to be a fair number of inexpensive properties. I am going to be in and out for weeks at a time, in for a month, out for a month, so one consideration I have is is it safe to leave the home unattended for a month. Any thoughts?

note: what made the Salmon Cakes extra-ordinary was the fresh Avocado-Orange relish that topped it. Fresh orange and avocado chunks with red onion, lime juice, jalapenos and cilantro. Wonderful and light. A Tahini-Yogurt Sauce was drizzled over the Barley with Lentils and Mushrooms. Easy and so satisfying.

My house here is referred to has the frat house. Not the main home. Real estate has cooled off a little bit but is still strong. Around the time I bought if a decent house went on the market it would sell in 24 to 48 hours often above asking. Now not so crazy. There are decent places to live and some areas you really want to avoid. Where depends on where you are working and what you want to be close too.

When I bought my parents' house in 1995 or so, my mom left everything she didn't want to move, including a bootle of unopened Canadian Club whiskey that still had the state licensing seal. As my dad had passed in '92, he must have bought it in the late '80's. He was too sick to drink the last few years but he always bought it to make my mom's Manhattans. I never opened it but I gave it to son Leggy last year who told me it wouldn't have gone bad. I'll have to ask him if he ever opened it.

In honor of Terry Jones (and in keeping with the theme of this thread), here's the poem "Horace," which I believe appeared in "Monty Python's Big Red Book."
Much to his dad and mum's dismay Horace ate himself one day He didn't stop to say his grace He just sat down and ate his face "We can't have this!" his dad declared "If that lad's ate he should be shared" But even as he spoke they saw Horace eating more and more: First his legs and then his thighs, His arms, his nose, his hair, his eyes "Stop him, someone!" Mother cried "Those eyeballs would be better fried!" But all too late for they were gone, And he had started on his dong... "Oh foolish child!" the father mourned "You could have deep-fried those with prawns, Some parsley and some tartar sauce..." But H was on his second course; His liver and his lights and lung, His ears, his neck, his chin, his tongue "To think I raised him from the cot And now he's gone to scoff the lot!" His mother cried what shall we do? What's left won't even make a stew..." And as she wept her son was seen To eat his head his heart his spleen And there he lay, a boy no more Just a stomach on the floor... None the less since it was his They ate it - and that's what haggis is. Posted by: RKae at January 26, 2020 05:20 PM (xXa6+) 280

The baking powder does something to the eggs, but I was advised not to do that. You want soft, moist, creamy curds, and the trick I was told was to make it a bit acid.
for perfect scrambled eggs, break two eggs into a bowl, add salt, pepper and a teaspoon of buttermilk. Mix it up good and it is ready to use. There are two methods of cooking, one is to use a hot-hot griddle that you turn off before you dump the eggs in, and then work the eggs until they start to set, then cover to allow it to cook on the residual heat. The other is to keep the temperature mild, and let the eggs cook long and slow, also covered. Actually, the third method is to use water to mix the eggs, pull out a cold pan, put it on the burner, turn it on high, and then put the eggs into the still cold pan, bitch, and then watch as you get grey scrambled eggs that have BB sized curds. Then wonder why they always come out tough and unappealing. That was an old girlfriend's patented technique. She got the same results every time.

omg sports talker guy went from total emo to extra high dudgeon about twitterers bringing up the Kobe hotel incident.
Jen had about the best take on it in the thread downstairs. I'm of a mixed mind. On the one hand, he was a brute 17 years ago, and handled the aftermath exceptionally poorly. On the other hand, it might not have risen to the level of a crime, and 17 years of not doing that again ought to mean something. Posted by: boulder t'hobo at January 26, 2020 05:22 PM (ykYG2) 288

Found a nice 4-pound pork loin roast for $2 a pound this week. I'm trying Meathead Goldwyn's recipe that's a combo of sous vide and smoking.
Season the loin well. Sous vide at 140 for 4 hours. Chill down well. (I'm planning to refrigerate mine overnight.) Then smoke at 325 degrees until it reaches an internal temp of 120. Idea is to cook it fully in the sous vide and then reheat and flavor it with the smoker. Sounds appealing. I'll report back on results.

One is "What was the price of eggs the year you were born?" Vintage photos and cost of living adjustments. In 1947 a dozen eggs were $.70. Inflation adjusted that's $8.16!!! In 1959, they were $.53 -$4.56 adjusted. Gee whiz, today I generally pay $.59 at Aldi's. Cheap protein. God bless mechanization. Posted by: cfo mom at January 26, 2020 05:33 PM (RfzVr) 323

Easy Bean Dip for Super Bowl parties or anytime:
One 15 oz can Refried Black Beans (black beans are a must) One 16 oz jar of your favorite salsa (I like smoked jalapeno or smoked chipotle ) Mix the beans with one-half up to the full jar of salsa, per your taste. Heat in microwave of small crock pot. Top each portion with chopped onions, shredded cheese, sliced jalapenos, or nothing, as you like. And remember - Never voluntarily fly in a helicopter!

Infidel, I don't have a recipe, but I've found a mix of mayo, sour cream and cream cheese (or any two) works great as a base for just about any dip you want to make.

Made a batch of Jezebel Sauce this week; it's a blend of apple jelly, pineapple preserves, dry mustard, and horseradish (lots of recipes on the web). I've had it at parties poured over a block of cream cheese and served with unseasoned crackers. But while searching pork loin recipes awhile back, someone suggested the Jezebel would pair nicely.
Anyway, as is typical, our youngest son rolled his eyes when he saw the dipping bowls next to everyone's dinner plates. And, in an attempt to jerk my chain, he ate half his sliced pork before giving the Jezebel a try. After one taste, though, he admitted liking it and even asked if he could take some home -- said he wanted to try basting it on grilled ham slices. He and I have been playing this game for years, and it never grows old! Posted by: Kathy at January 26, 2020 05:57 PM (q7uEm) 413

Found a sweet little vintage cast iron cornbread pan at Goodwill last week, one of the eight-wedge types. Reseasoned it in the oven and it has a lovely patina; probably about 50 years old. The same look an old locomotive has, that blue black shine. I made little quiches in it and they were great although awfully small. I have to eat two at a time. Tried cornbread last night and it stuck, I guess I didn't get the pan hot enough with the grease before filling the wedges. I'm still practicing!

Was out of electronic connection and just found out about Kobe Bryant. First, real facts, not ABC News bullshit. First call came into 911 at 9:47 am LA time. The fog was extremely thick. The pilot crashed into the side of the mountain, all died, and a quarter acre brush fire started. There were nine souls on the helicopter, according to the LA Sheriff's office. Rumors are that Kobe, his 13 year old daughter, a friend of hers and a parent of that friend, were on board. Others unknown at this time. He was on the way to a 7th and 8th grade bb tournament that his daughter was in, and he coached. I used to be a true sports fanatic. Still follow some sports, but not like before contracts and politics became more important than statistics and wins. When the NBA was politically stolen from Seattle, I gave up on that league. In the 12 years since, I don't miss it even a little bit, because the game is mostly one-on-one dunks and very little teamwork. But as a Sonics fan, the Lakers were in our division and so Kobe was a part of the news cycle a lot. Kobe was certainly not a perfect person, nobody is. But he was one of the good ones. He didn't have to, but he helped a lot of younger people get involved with positive activities, during his career and especially after he retired. He Paid it Forward a lot. He was an incredible roll model for young urban boys, something sorely lacking these days. He was the opposite of those negative stories we see these days about pro sports players. Kobe won an Oscar as well as 5 NBA Championships. I hate the NBA with a passion, but this Sonics fan will miss Kobe. Kobe Bryant was a lot more than a great NBA player. He was a good guy and a good citizen. Posted by: LeftCoast Dawg at January 26, 2020 06:10 PM (sy5kK) 462

In one of the worst Tex mex places I ever had the shame of entering. They offered Chili con queso.. It was something like hormel Chili with a few sprinkles of Cheddar. Posted by: Quint at January 26, 2020 06:16 PM (n13/j) Posted by: My Pimp Shot My Dealer at January 26, 2020 06:17 PM (QHOuo) 485

the point was they thought Chili Con Queso was chile with some cheese. They had it all wrong, and not even in a funny way. I went to a Tex Mex place in London and the chick called them torte ilas And she had no idea what an armadillo was even when they had stuffed armadillos. But no way would even they think chili con queso was hormel chile with some kraft cheddar bits.

Huachinango a la Vercruzana. Or...Red Snapper Vera Cruz style. Holy Cow! is that one delightful dish. There's a reason it's one of the Big Boys of Mexican cuisine. Served it with Arroz Verde. (that's green rice, y'all) which was a perfect accompaniment. And some Southwest style cole slaw. Yum yum yum yum yum. I used Diana Kennedy's recipes for both the fish and rice. She's almost always the guarantee of a great meal. I believe you can find both online.

I've never seen Slapshot and from the comments I've seen I will never see Slapshot. Even if Paul Newman is really in it. Is he really in it?
Posted by: bluebell I've never seen it either. Around the time the movie came out, I and 3 friends had gone annually to fish in Canada for Brook Trout. The 3rd year, 2 brothers joined us, and they were quickly named "The Hansens". The 1st day, they flipped their boat, and almost crashed into other boats. Of course, we drank beer. But those guys got drunk, and I mean DRUNK the first day. We went in to wash up for supper, and the one brother went to sleep on his bunk with his coat and boots on. Someone remarked on that and someone else said "He wants to be ready to fish in the morning", which sent us into convulsive laughter. The other brother, who at least had taken off his coat and boots, opened one eye and said drunkenly and slowly "Quit pickin' on my brother". Any mention of the Hansen Brothers brings back memories of that trip. Posted by: JT at January 26, 2020 06:46 PM (arJlL) 612

Not a big NBA fan, but I have to give Bryant credit for what he said to douche Chris Collingsworth during the 2008 Olympics. Bryant said he was proud to be American and thought the USA was the greatest nation on earth. Collingsworth said "Is that a cool thing to say? It seems like it's something from days gone by." Kobe replied that it was cool and he wasn't a bit ashamed to broadcast his patriotism.

San Antonio Chili Queens (circ. 1936 and going back several hundred years) were some tough women.
Generally the never used tomatos and beans were always in another bowl. Chilies, onion and some seasonings and suet were used. Pork chunks often rounded out the beef.

The best scrambled eggs are made by whisking in some mayo into the eggs before cooking. It's an old recipe.

It might take multiple readings to wade through the thick accents but be prepared for rapid onset dust allergies:
The Haggis Of Private McPhee by Robert William Service "Hae ye heard whit ma auld mither's postit tae me? It fair maks me hamesick," says Private McPhee. "And whit did she send ye?" says Private McPhun, As he cockit his rifle and bleezed at a Hun. "A haggis! A Haggis!" says Private McPhee; "The brawest big haggis I ever did see. And think! it's the morn when fond memory turns Tae haggis and whuskey--the Birthday o' Burns. We maun find a dram; then we'll ca' in the rest O' the lads, and we'll hae a Burns' Nicht wi' the best." "Be ready at sundoon," snapped Sergeant McCole; "I want you two men for the List'nin' Patrol." Then Private McPhee looked at Private McPhun: "I'm thinkin', ma lad, we're confoundedly done." Then Private McPhun looked at Private McPhee: "I'm thinkin' auld chap, it's a' aff wi' oor spree." But up spoke their crony, wee Wullie McNair: "Jist lea' yer braw haggis for me tae prepare; And as for the dram, if I search the camp roun', We maun hae a drappie tae jist haud it doon. Sae rin, lads, and think, though the nicht it be black, O' the haggis that's waitin' ye when ye get back." My! but it wis waesome on Naebuddy's Land, And the deid they were rottin' on every hand. And the rockets like corpse candles hauntit the sky, And the winds o' destruction went shudderin' by. There wis skelpin' o' bullets and skirlin' o' shells, And breengin' o' bombs and a thoosand death-knells; But cooryin' doon in a Jack Johnson hole Little fashed the twa men o' the List'nin' Patrol. For sweeter than honey and bricht as a gem Wis the thocht o' the haggis that waitit for them. Yet alas! in oor moments o' sunniest cheer Calamity's aften maist cruelly near. And while the twa talked o' their puddin' divine The Boches below them were howkin' a mine. And while the twa cracked o' the feast they would hae, The fuse it wis burnin' and burnin' away. Then sudden a roar like the thunner o' doom, A hell-leap o' flame . . . then the wheesht o' the tomb. "Haw, Jock! Are ye hurtit?" says Private McPhun. "Ay, Geordie, they've got me; I'm fearin' I'm done. It's ma leg; I'm jist thinkin' it's aff at the knee; Ye'd best gang and leave me," says Private McPhee. "Oh leave ye I wunna," says Private McPhun; "And leave ye I canna, for though I micht run, It's no faur I wud gang, it's no muckle I'd see: I'm blindit, and that's whit's the maitter wi' me." Then Private McPhee sadly shakit his heid: "If we bide here for lang, we'll be bidin' for deid. And yet, Geordie lad, I could gang weel content If I'd tasted that haggis ma auld mither sent." "That's droll," says McPhun; "ye've jist speakit ma mind. Oh I ken it's a terrible thing tae be blind; And yet it's no that that embitters ma lot-- It's missin' that braw muckle haggis ye've got." For a while they were silent; then up once again Spoke Private McPhee, though he whussilt wi' pain: "And why should we miss it? Between you and me We've legs for tae run, and we've eyes for tae see. You lend me your shanks and I'll lend you ma sicht, And we'll baith hae a kyte-fu' o' haggis the nicht." Oh the sky it wis dourlike and dreepin' a wee, When Private McPhun gruppit Private McPhee. Oh the glaur it wis fylin' and crieshin' the grun', When Private McPhee guidit Private McPhun. "Keep clear o' them corpses--they're maybe no deid! Haud on! There's a big muckle crater aheid. Look oot! There's a sap; we'll be haein' a coup. A staur-shell! For Godsake! Doun, lad, on yer daup. Bear aff tae yer richt. . . . Aw yer jist daein' fine: Before the nicht's feenished on haggis we'll dine." There wis death and destruction on every hand; There wis havoc and horror on Naebuddy's Land. And the shells bickered doun wi' a crump and a glare, And the hameless wee bullets were dingin' the air. Yet on they went staggerin', cooryin' doun When the stutter and cluck o' a Maxim crept roun'. And the legs o' McPhun they were sturdy and stoot, And McPhee on his back kept a bonnie look-oot. "On, on, ma brave lad! We're no faur frae the goal; I can hear the braw sweerin' o' Sergeant McCole." But strength has its leemit, and Private McPhun, Wi' a sab and a curse fell his length on the grun'. Then Private McPhee shoutit doon in his ear: "Jist think o' the haggis! I smell it from here. It's gushin' wi' juice, it's embaumin' the air; It's steamin' for us, and we're--jist--aboot--there." Then Private McPhun answers: "Dommit, auld chap! For the sake o' that haggis I'll gang till I drap." And he gets on his feet wi' a heave and a strain, And onward he staggers in passion and pain. And the flare and the glare and the fury increase, Till you'd think they'd jist taken a' hell on a lease. And on they go reelin' in peetifu' plight, And someone is shoutin' away on their right; And someone is runnin', and noo they can hear A sound like a prayer and a sound like a cheer; And swift through the crash and the flash and the din, The lads o' the Hielands are bringin' them in. "They're baith sairly woundit, but is it no droll Hoo they rave aboot haggis?" says Sergeant McCole. When hirplin alang comes wee Wullie McNair, And they a' wonnert why he wis greetin' sae sair. And he says: "I'd jist liftit it oot o' the pot, And there it lay steamin' and savoury hot, When sudden I dooked at the fleech o' a shell, And it--dropped on the haggis and dinged it tae hell." And oh but the lads were fair taken aback; Then sudden the order wis passed tae attack, And up from the trenches like lions they leapt, And on through the nicht like a torrent they swept. On, on, wi' their bayonets thirstin' before! On, on tae the foe wi' a rush and a roar! And wild to the welkin their battle-cry rang, And doon on the Boches like tigers they sprang: And there wisna a man but had death in his ee, For he thocht o' the haggis o' Private McPhee. https://youtu.be/QDIJadQovZc https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BHGPQfQgQyg Posted by: Blurrer at January 27, 2020 02:23 PM (W+b1+) 676
