Boiled beef, eh?
Made a fantastic braised beef shank last night for today's lunch. Basic veg, but a ton of tarragon. Added a bouquet garni of juniper berries, too. Served it over a nice herbed polenta. I'm in a very pleasant food coma right now. Posted by: RedMindBlueState at November 03, 2024 04:05 PM (Wnv9h) 7

I was honored last week to have my write-in about clarified butter featured. I didn't participate in the thread, but I did read it.
One late commenter who signed his comment GROSS said that separated milk solids are a great culinary ingredient in their own right. Makes sense! Those solids would be lactose and whey; sugar plus protein plus heat equals...Maillard reaction! You can buy ghee at the store. In ghee, the milk solids are "toasted" and retained in the oil. Ghee will stand as much heat as any other oil, and it has a rich flavor from the converted sugar and protein. Pure butter oil is shelf-stable and has a mild, almost neutral flavor. For some reason, I'm kind of hung-up on stability. Milk solids coagulate at a higher temperature than the oil, so this temperature trick of mine should work to get a clean, efficient separation of the solids from the oil. But I've only seen it happen once, and it was an accident. Whether it's worth exploring the trackless depths of the Butter Geek Forest is a matter of personal preference. Thanks to everyone for your ideas. Posted by: Tom Perry at November 03, 2024 04:11 PM (MX0bI) 17

I bought that last month because I had never heard of it, and really, that's how one finds good bourbons that aren't stupidly priced. But it was crap. Oaky, dusty, without any of the sweet balance that those flavors need to make a well rounded bourbon.
On the other hand, the older brat tried it three weeks after I opened it and said that it really wasn't bad! I wonder whether that little bit of oxidation was enough to improve it? The sweet stuff must have settled out. You should store the bottle upside-down. Posted by: mikeski at November 03, 2024 04:12 PM (DgGvY) 19

I'm partial to authentic Pennsylvania Dutch Chicken Corn Noodle soup. The authenticity is debatable, but includes chunks of hardboiled egg, quarter sized homemade dumplings, white shoe peg corn, spring onions, chicken of course (white meat only), white onions, celery, carrots thinly shaved, parsley and a couple bay leaves, garlic, Kluski egg noodles, and the secret little flavor trick to offset the savory:
Keep some fresh corn to the side to run through the blender to add a little sweetness for balance to the stock. Good stuff. Posted by: Orson at November 03, 2024 04:14 PM (dIske) 23

Speaking of fall/winter soups I have to recommend the Serious Eats recipe for beef and barley soup. (Yes, I know there's a lot of hate for Kenji whatsit, but it's not his recipe.)
I made it with beef shanks last year because I had them but this year I made it with chuck roast (as in the recipe). It was amazingly addictive, even during warm weather. Posted by: Art Rondelet of Malmsey at November 03, 2024 04:26 PM (FEVMW) 55
I think liquor store salesmen just tout things they're trying to get rid of. The Total Wine guy talked me into a silver tequila that didn't even taste like tequila (he didn't say that, just that a lot of people liked it.) Drank every drop just because, but was happy to get back to Exotico.

"I think liquor store salesmen just tout things they're trying to get rid of."
When we're undecided about what to order at a restaurant we narrow the choices we ask the server what he/she would choose. It's always very telling about both the restaurant and the server. If they say, "Lots of people like the salmon," they are promoting what the restaurant is trying to get rid of and you can't trust them. If they say, "the salmon is my favorite" or "the chicken is the best thing on the menu," that's an honest recommendation. We tip accordingly.

I have an interesting pumpkin pie going in the oven right now. It combines the very old with the very new. The entire recipe (Ladies Improvement League of Columbus, N.D., 1916):
One cup stewed pumpkin, one-half cup milk, one-half cup sweet cream, two-thirds cup sugar, salt, two eggs, spice to suit. And then, Im combining it with the pie crust from Rose Levy Beranbaums Baking Bible, which goes into incredible detail, and which I couldnt follow completely anyway because she recommends the room temperature be around 62° or so. I refrigerated the flour, froze the cream cheese and butter (unsalted, naturally), kneaded it in a ziplock bag, removed it and wrapped it in plastic wrap for the fridge, rolled it out on two lengths of plastic wrap arranged crosswise to each other, with another length on top, removing occasionally to turn over and dust each side with flour It did, in fact, make for the easiest transfer of pie crust from rolling to pan than Ive seen before, but its going to have to be pretty amazing to make the extra work worth not just mixing some flour, butter, and beer, rolling out, and baking.

78 This thread is timely. I had the best vegetable soup ever last night! It had sweet potatoes and fire roasted tomatoes, and chick peas, and…vegetables! It was so good I have to ask for the recipe. I actually won’t mind prepping the sweet poatoes to make this delicious comfort bowl.
Posted by: kallisto at November 03, 2024 04:34 PM (srk4T) You'd probably enjoy thanksgiving leftovers soup if you like sweet potato...use your leftover turkey stock, your mashed potato and sweet potato, your cran sauce, and all your veg (as in start with your fresh carrots, celery, onion for the base and then later add all your cooked veg)...it's pretty great. I've even tossed stuffing in... Posted by: Nova Local at November 03, 2024 04:49 PM (exHjb) 124

I've never had Jameson Black Barrel, which will likely be significantly different, as it is finished in American oak, sherry, and charred bourbon casks.

Fantastic Posted by: nurse ratched, garbage at November 03, 2024 05:04 PM (ytBBc) Take the leftovers and blend with chicken or veggie broth, sauteed onion, garlic, celery and carrots, and if you are so inclined, add a dash of heavy cream and heat, and you have a sublime roasted root vegetable soup!!

Funny thing.
Irish Whiskey was the most popular whiskey bar none in the world at one time. Winston Churchill's fave as well. IIRC it lost its place as the premier adult beverage around 1920 becuz...you guessed it, they changed the way in was made (distillation I believe) and no longer tasted quite the same. Or maybe it was when they started adding neutral grain alcohol to stretch the whiskey as a blend. The 100% pot still Irish you see these days like Red Breast is a return to the halcyon before times. And really is super stuff. Posted by: naturalfake at November 03, 2024 05:22 PM (eDfFs) 199

Yesterday was cloudy, with temps refusing to budge north of 63. Perfect day to simmer sumpin' on the stove for a few hours, and here at Casa Sin Problemas, that means gumbo!
Had a half dozen chicken thighs, so I pulled the skins, heated a tablespoon of oil, and proceeded to fry the skins over medium heat, to render the fat. After about thirty minutes, I had about a half cup of chicken fat and a handful of fried chicken skin. I rewarded myself with a short Manhattan and munched on these as the rest of the gumbo came together. A cup of flour went into the rendered fat, and after 25 minutes, I had a nice mahagony roux. Added the trinity (I used poblano peppers rather than bells because that's what I had), once everything cooked down, I seasoned and seared the thighs. The liquid was two cups of water and 1/3 cup of sherry, fortified with two teaspoons of tabasco and three tablespoons of whatsdishere sauce. Diced up the remains of a smoked beef sausage that I had and added this to the gumbo along with a couple of minced garlic cloves, plus a serrano chili or two, since no one was stopping me. (1/2...)

Itinerant, you can use the cabbage in an Asian stir fry! Chop it up and add veg, meat, adobo seasoning, soy sauce, fish sauce, garlic, ginger seasonings, etc. serve it as is or over rice. It's really good and then it's not just a pot of mush.
I've also had Irish stuffed cabbage leaves with parsnips, corned beef, carrots inside. So good. Posted by: LizLem at November 03, 2024 06:09 PM (p9CE1) 272

Just half the cabbage, then quarter, for 8 pieces (12 if it's really big - keep a touch of core with each piece). Then brush both sides with olive oil and sprinkle s&p (you can add a different herb, like thyme, if you want). Cook at 375 til you like it - 30-45 minutes. You want to see some charred edges and you want it soft. It's glorious this way - you'll never boil cabbage again...and it's less than 5 minutes of effort...

well, it is boiled beef, but the hard way
I am on my second shot at pickled beef. Traditionally you salt it down by putting it into a salt and sugar pickle, and let it sit somewhere cool for at least a week. I have been vacuum sealing it with sugar cure and some pickling spices for a couple of weeks, then cooking it in the crock pot for 8 hours. It still needs to be sliced and then simmered to get the extra salt out before eating, but it is tasty in sandwiches, or hash, or if it is the fatty end, chopped fine and put in with beans the steeping water can also be used as a stock to cook beans in, too. Rice and beans is a complete protein, but cooking it with protein makes an even tastier protein. Posted by: Kindltot at November 03, 2024 06:21 PM (D7oie) 291

I decided to not let the eggs in the fridge evaporate any more than they already had, so I scrambled them with a generous portion of shredded dill havarti and seasoned them with salt, pepper, and garlic powder while uncooked.
It went quite well with the box couscous with chicken (and dried jalapeno bits and garlic powder and salt and pepper) added. And the portions I divided out will be lunch for the next couple days. Posted by: FeatherBlade at November 03, 2024 07:03 PM (cSS7r) 329

I'm glad you mentioned soups. I love to make a big batch of bean-and-hamhock soup. A bag of mixed soup beans and a couple of meaty ham hocks cost less than $10, all told. I throw in a large onion, a couple of cans of crushed tomatoes, a bit of sale and a bit of sugar, then let it simmer for a day or so. The result is a hearty soup that freezes really well, and is quite tasty and quite satisfying. One batch makes 6-8 pints of soup. One pint with bread and salad makes a good autumn supper for my wife and myself.

I'm part of the horde, you know, a moron, and love the food thread. Today you hit the spot with the scrapple picture. You said it was in a Philly suburb, I'm guessing from other posts it was Bucks County. Grew up on the other side of Philly in Delco (Delaware county) and just love scrapple at breakfast, but have also made it for dinner. People ask what is in it, and I respond, "don't ask". I consider it my recycling. When the cow is butchered, the steaks are the first cuts, then a bunch of other cuts. What's left is made into sausage. What wasn't deemed usable for sausage is somehow transformed with a ton of spices into scrapple.
