It's great, you can also use frozen broccoli, I just put it on for a few minutes longer, but yeah, just coat it with a tiny bit of oil, season it and you are good to go. Local Asparagus should be in season soon so I am going to also try that. As long as the vegetable isn't too "wet" it should be good, but even then, you can get away with it with a little breading.

I made a smoked salmon bowl today - usually I make those with tuna.
Looked somewhat similar to this one here, just without the avocado.
Was quite nice, salmon is just almost too fatty in a bowl like this for my taste.

Cracked open an old fashioned cookbook filled with recipes from the 1950s. Found one that sounded too perfect. Old fashioned peanut butter cookies. The recipe is so old it calls for a cup of "butter or oleo." Nobody calls margarine oleo anymore.
They turned out great. Not too soft, not too hard, not too dry, not too moist, didn't crumble apart when you bite into them. Very good cookies.
Funny enough it's pretty much the exact recipe you'll find on dozens of sites. Guess the old axiom "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" applies to most old recipes.

How else is he going to melt the iron shavings into the hazelnut spread?

It's less of a spread and more of a solder.
Mrs finally agreed to one of my favs, breakfast for dinner. So made basic eggs toast and hash browns with some ham steaks.
Hash browns had a lot of onion fried up in em, because to do it with out is wack. Simple, easy and cheap and oh so good.

I roasted a 6 pound chicken persian style in my Dutch oven. Sadly no pics cuz I made it for a family meal and felt gay to take pics infront of them. The recipe is honestly a must.
Fry 1 chopped onion in a few tablespoons of butter, soak a half pound of dried apricots, dates/prunes and raisins in hot water (reserve this water to add liquid to the Dutch oven) and then toss in the same pan with 1 or 2 chopped apples and a bit more butter. Deglaze with red or sherry wine when done and mix in salt, pepper and plenty of cinnamon to taste. Stuff the bird, put cinnamon pepper and salt on top and put the rest of the mix around the pan and put a little more wine around that. Roast at 350 for however long it takes, my poorfag ghetto oven took 2.5 hrs to reach 165 internal. Serve with white or persian style rice which you can easily Google a recipe for.
This dish is ridiculously decadent, flavorful and soft but is not too extreme with the flavors so kids or older folks won't complain.

Sweet and sour chicken
DISCLAIMER: I eye out how much I'm using, I don't know the measurements anymore
- Around 1/2 cup of corn starch and 1/4 cup of flour, always less flour than corn starch
- 1 tsp or so of baking powder
- Only add a little bit of onion powder, salt and pepper
- Around 2 tbsp canola oil, and enough water to turn it into pancake batter consistency
- If it's too wet, add more corn starch or flour to thicken it
- Put the chicken into the batter and then put the coated chicken into the fryer
- Stir them around occasionally, take them out when crispy and golden
Batter ingredient list:
- corn starch
- flour
- salt and pepper to taste
- onion powder
- canola oil
- 1 egg
- baking powder
- cold water

I think I'll try this. I just got a Dutch oven and have been mildly obsessed with it. I honestly think that recipe could do with a bit of rosewater or saffron or both. It's not easy to find rosewater everywhere though.

You're absolutely right about those 2 ingredients but I was working with a limited budget and availability. I'm going go do that next time I get to the eastern market. Let me know how it turns out, its easily my favorite chicken recipe.

You probably should add asafoetida too for a full persian experience even though it fucking reeks when you use it at first. It adds a great flavor mix. At the very least it's great when paired with turmeric if you like Indian style foods too.

I made the most utterly dogshit pancakes ever yesterday. Normally I always make my pancakes from scratch but my mom picked up a few cheap packages of mix that were on a last chance sale, to try for fun. One of them was keto and has erythritol so I was pretty concerned, because that's the "destroy your asshole" sugar substitute.
I was even more concerned when I started mixing and it smelled like dry cat food.
Depicted: cat food batter
Cooked up decently well, I'm not good at making pancakes without making them look like shit so that's no fault of the mix, lol. But the end result was the texture of sand with the flavor of cardboard. Not a lot of sweetness and hardly any chocolate flavor.
0/10 expectations were low and I was still dissapointed

SHIT! I got some of that a bit ago in an attempt to cut down on carbs, but hadn't made it yet because I'd mostly been doing omelets and scramblers for breakfast. If it's that bad it sounds like I wasted my money. Oh well, thanks for warning me.

My experience has been the same. Don't try and turn pancakes into a health food I guess. Or a healthier food. Adding egg can help a bit if you want to try and use the rest of the mix.

You might be able to choke them down with enough butter and syrup! I considered giving the rest of the bag to a gluten-intolerant friend but changed my mind because I didn't want to subject him to that.
