This easy recipe to do, comes from the Food Network Italia. A very beautiful channel, way, way different and better from the USA, with tons of recipes and cooking shows to watch. I do love it and watch it 2–3 times per week when possible.
Okras are like green been, they to be cleaned with water and chop off their head, let it a bit in water with vinegar and cook them in the pot with all the ingredients mentioned above + olive oil, pepper and salt.
Okras can be cooked with meat as well, starting always with the meat, and then adding the okras.
Lovely food that makes me escape out of the ordinary every day food.
It’s a crisp 83°f (28.3c) in the house. I decided I was definitely not turning on any heat source for dinner. Which isn’t cheap.
Cost per person: $6.41
The recipe is easy to do:
Put overnight the chickpeas in water, give the a wash next day and boil them for 15-20 minutes, put in the oven for 30 minutes or so with the rest ingredients.
Baked the bread before the kitchen got too hot. Kinda tossed the rest together. Chickpeas, black beans, corn, cucumber, onion, herbed garlic goat cheese, geek seasoning, cumin, lemon juice olive oil, red pepper flakes, black pepper.
A friend had a kidney transplant and bought a lot of frozen fruit after that. As happens a lot in cases like that they can’t eat the frozen fruit anymore because of medication interactions. So they gave it to us.
No knead dough, extra cheese, I sliced and popped the polish sausage and corporate frozen meatballs in the air fryer before adding them to the pizzas and cooking the pizzas.
Making hot pot later and I don’t want to waste any of my veggies. Thin cut broccoli, I’m guessing 3 mins? Thick crowns, I’m guessing 5-6 mins? Does that sound right or will they be mush?
Watched The Plant Slant’s videos again (https://youtube.com/shorts/rCx7v7O44nY?is=kdwtRMDF3pxjYHIw) and it’s excellent! Not sure what the actual name would be of this dish.
Aldi has bronze extruded pasta like spaghetti, linguine and fettuccine for $2 a pound. That is a fraction of the normal price. They are in thicker plastic packaging. I know you hate that but it’s less likely to let pantry months in. So you don’t need to put it in another container like you do when it comes in cardboard packaging.
Obviously its a necessity to feed ourselves, but im talking deeper here. What inspires you? Who are your muses? What beyond the basic need to eat keeps you excited about food?
Plating this was a pain, but eating it was worth it. The sauce was cilantro garlic and lime with chopped green onions and a sour cream base. Tossed over shredded cabbage. I also made some guacamole for my wife to put on hers although I don’t care for it.
Started with a craving for hummus, ended with a bit more in the plate. All was more or less cooked in the same batch in the oven so not complex or overly messing.
My younger kid has discovered “boy kibble”: simple cooking and food prep for high protein, low fat meals (ground turkey and rice), perfect for the gym-bro and looksmaxxer in your family!
A couple friends just had a baby. So my SO and I brought a Baked Ziti. I’m the one who made this, I’m still learning to cook well when my partner is amazing. They tasted it and said “I’ve taught you will, young grasshopper”, so that was nice.
We bought our first Le Creuset cookware yesterday (~40% off the outlet price, so almost reasonable) and, although it was probably a waste of money, we agreed to add the $26 bottle of cleaner. In reading the directions, it says it’s for cleaning cast iron and stainless steel. I assume there’s either laziness or poor translation at work, and I’m interpreting the “cast iron” in this context as “enamel.” Why would it matter what material is on the inside? Or maybe it’s for enamel and also for cast iron? I saw they also make standard iron skillets. But why stainless steel? Why would I want a special cleaner for stainless steel? Do they mean carbon steel? I never wash my blue carbon steel fry pan since I use that every morning, but if they recommend it for cast iron, it would presumably be good for washing my big wok-style de Buyer pan without stripping the seasoning. Since we’ve already done paid for this cleaner, I want to wring some value out of it.
One goose egg, one cup of venison chili, potatoes done in a cast iron skillet, too much cheese, a little olive oil and butter and some bacon grease for good measure.
She wanted pasta, shrimp, peas, butter and lemon. I had a pint and half of canned San Marzano to use up. If you don’t put red pepper flakes in something like this then you have messed up.
Accidentally overproofed because I got caught up making lasagna, but still turned out really well! Next time, I will axe the seeds on top (makes a mess when slicing and the poppy seeds go everywhere), and put them inside the bread instead. And more poppy seeds, and maybe a handful of oats.
This started with dry beans. I also made a pepper sauce for them. Cost wise they are practically break even with the cheapest multi pack of freezer burritos you can buy at 12¢ per ounce. These cost 11¢ per ounce.
Rice with horse radish, two pork chops seasoned with curry powder and cooked with mushrooms in butter and olive oil and topped with cottage cheese and hot sauce. Pretty good after not having eaten all day.
Your typical pancake recipe calls for oil or butter in the batter. But you can change that. I had an open jar of homemade applesauce. You can do a straight substitution of the fat for applesauce. Back when Google+ was a thing I posted about this and a hospital chef did a blind taste test with his staff. As a result he switched it to the default recipe for the whole hospital.
Price of Great Value pintos beans per 15.5 oz can: 86¢.
Price of 4 pounds of dried pinto beans: $3.76.
Number of pint jars worth of beans you get from a 4 lb bag: 15.
Been watching The Plant Slant and it was in one of his videos and he liked it, so I decided to try it (with half beef and half beans) and it was nice! It’s large though, the…size of a 3/4ths cookie sheet. Leftovers were frozen!
“what do you want for dinner?”
“Potato soup!”
“I don’t know if I have time for that. Let me check.”
I found a previous post of mine here and realized I not only had time to make her soup but make some bread.
