What Have You Cooked Recently?

[ImHapp]

I finally did it my fellow kiwis! I cooked a lobster dinner with French style green beans and mashed potatoes and for Just one night I ate like a king and had something that wasn't spam and ramen instant noodles or beans and cut up hot dogs

Sorry for the low quality pic as you can probably tell by the mug if beer I'm a little tipsy in celebrating a meal like this. And this unfortunately is just a one time thing. For the next two weeks hopefully I have enough of those spam and beans and eame to keep from starving till next payday

What happened to your beer man?...

What happened to your beer man?...

I was too drunk to remember to tip the glass to keep it from foaming up

 

[A Grey Cat]

even a blurry pic of Ebirah there is enough

I have one that's a bit better quality

Again I was drinking so..yeah couldn't keep the camera steady

I made fried cabbage and some penne pasta with chicken meatballs, garlic, Scallion, fresh basil and oregano.

 

[Whatthefuck]

I'm lazy so make in insta pot

6 chicken feet
6 pork ribs (soft bone)
3 dried scallops
3 dried abalone
3 medium size dried anchovies
3 dried shiitake mushrooms
1 cup peanuts
lotus root
salt to taste

bring to boil chicken feet and pork ribs in insta pot, skim the scum
add rest of ingredients
pressure cook for 2 hours
add salt to taste

There is nothing a bit wrong with using the ol instapot for things like this. I mean, I'm not going to cook prime rib in it, but for a quick dinner in a pinch or for tougher cuts of meat, it's a good option timewise.

I use my pressure cooker to make stews: I can throw in frozen cuts of chicken, unsoaked beans, stock and some herbs and get a decent meal in under an hour. That fucker will also squeeze every last ounce of flavour out of a chicken carcass to make the most delicious stock, and it's fucking huge so I can use it as a non-pressurised cauldron and slowly simmer stuff.

Behold a ramen bowl made with sliced fried luncheon meat and oriental flavor top ramen with cayenne pepper for flavor

I've been doing some blueberry pancakes in the morning on my skillet with a little leftover bacon grease. Don't really need any butter just a tiny little dollop of real maple syrup. the real shit is expensive but I buy it on sale and a small 8oz bottle will last a year.

I have been a pressure cooker fan for years. I don't know why I didn't start using them sooner. Maybe because I associated them with my grandmother shooing the kids out of the kitchen and them sounding vaguely ominous with the pressure regulator rattling on the top. Everything that came out of them was great but they made me nervous that they'd explode at any moment.

I feel you: my mother had an electric stove which was slow to adjust, so every so often that big pressure cooker would vent like a geyser. I got mine as a present and it took me two weeks to grow the balls to use it. I know in my mind that it won't explode unless I intentionally sabotage 2 valves and a rubber seal, but...

Last weekend me and my mom baked another cake with condensed milk instead of sugar, orange juice, and lemon zest. It wasn't too sweet, but still delicious. She plans on making it again for her former coworkers.

I made thai green curry. With chicken thigh and mixed vegetables. It was delicious. The curry paste is pretty spicy by itself.

Look extremely tasty.

Late, but if anyone wants the El Pollo Loco recipe. My sibling says its white vinegar and pineapple juice for the chicken's marinade. Let it soak for a day or two and then grill the thing.

I made a batch of peach jalapeño popsicles, they're very tasty and have a pleasant amount of heat. The recipe I followed calls for roasting halved peaches in the oven and pureeing them, skin and all. You take simple syrup and simmer it with sliced jalapeños, strain them out and add the syrup to the peaches. I think there was a little lemon juice added in as well. You could even add some salt and if you're feeling wild, some booze, and they'd be pretty damn good. They're pretty damn good as is. Alcohol doesn't freeze well though so if you're making boozy pops you can only add in a little before they loose their ability to freeze up. Actually I think salt might do something similar? I'll have to do some experimenting in regards to salty boozy popsicles.

From my experience freezing bourbon flavored ice cream, you really can't add much at all. It nearly immediately fucks up the ability to freeze. If you're doing it for flavor (and doing it for alcohol content is useless), something like a shot worth a gallon is what you should shoot for. This is also something where you should really shoot for harsh flavors, so something like Wild Turkey 101 is excellent to combine with peach flavored ice cream. Or Old Grand-Dad 114 but you'll wish you had just had it straight.

I just throw shit in a crockpot with gratuitous seasoning when I’m drunk and see what comes out the next day.

 

[Spamton]

tuna + egg cheese sandwiches, which was oddly better than I expected.
Though, I also burnt my hand on the pan because i was careless.

 

[Stoneheart]

Steak, it was good, but couldnt rest for 10 min because smelled to good.

 

[Hell]

White rice, salad, nuts, potato, protein for vegans.

I may prepare some kimchi today.
