    so it's been a while since i've caught up. but

    @DrZiplock if you're still looking for rosemary recipes, there's a small company down here that makes an amazing rosemary jelly.
    This is a random recipe that I found, but the idea is essentially the same. https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/rosemary-jelly/

    it's soooo good on meat of all kinds, but also good with scones.

    Welp, I think this is a thing I'll be doing over the next couple of days. Thanks!

    Mayo does something to the taste that I don't like, and I don't usually have mayo in my house because I hate mayo in general.

    I just use like 8 sticks of butter it's okay.

    rosemary jelly sound like the perfect companion to mint jelly, in the trash heap of jellies (and I like rosemary)

    It's insanely delicious with pork

    How to frost cupcakes without a piping bag or tip???

  • tynictynic PICNIC BADASS Registered User, ClubPA regular
    Option 1:

    https://food.onehowto.com/article/how-to-make-a-piping-bag-and-nozzle-at-home-11567.html

    Option 2: just use a knife, as long as you're generous when you plop the icing on it will look fine.

    Update

    These are incredibly good

    https://www.livewellbakeoften.com/chocolate-cupcakes-recipe/

    This is the recipe I used. Was a good choice. I used cake flour instead of ap though.

    Sophia made chocolate mousse for valentine's dinner last night

    or, she tried to, but was only half paying attention because of brain spiders, and wound up making like...a kind of really dense pudding? but with a graham cracker crust?

    it's very odd but it's also amazing

    (my contribution to dinner was cacio e pepe but that's not as exciting)

    Nothing worse than a cupcake with an improper cake:frosting ratio.
    Well, I suppose there's a lot of things worse.

    But the improper cake:frosting ratio is pretty bad.

    There's a local cupcake place that makes just the tastiest dense yet tender chocolate cupcakes I have ever shoved into my cupcakehole. And then they insist on topping them with about quadruple the icing they really need, and it's that really stiff bullshit icing that feels like you're eating spackle. It's a real shame.

    The real redeeming feature is that you can peel off the rigid spackle cap and throw it in the garbage where it belongs, and then you've got a lovely little cake that's just for you.

    Cooking thread, I need your help. My sinuses have been fucked for most of a month, and so last week I tried to find a recipe for chicken and dumplings. This was a tremendous comfort food for me when I was a child. I decided on a slow-cooker version because that is my general jam. And way too much of the liquid cooked off, and the dumplings kind of disintegrated, and I somehow oversalted it by a really wild margin, and when I finished the last bowl of it just now I thought "Hey, I bet this is what wet cat food is like."

    What do you cook when you are feeling congested and poorly?

    For congestion I recommend something with a lot of ginger and a good amount of heat

    Something like this

    Hmm, I don't have any nigella seeds for this recipe, should I use cumin or fennel seeds as a substitute?

    Try Jamie Oliver seeds instead.

    (real talk cumin)

  • Lost SalientLost Salient blink twice if you'd like me to mercy kill youRegistered User regular
    That's what I did!

    The recipe is for a seeded beet, oat and goat cheese loaf and it is very delicious but also I suspect it could be called How To Really Really Poop Loaf.

    Chicken curry if I have a cold

    Macaroni cheese if I'm not sinusy

    Also if I'm sick I still enjoy a good chicken noodle soup. But maybe a spicy ramen?

    I'm trying to imagine a world without italian sausage, because that would be a world without fennel seeds.

    That is not a world I want to live in.

    I like soup when I'm sick. Either carrot, butternut and ginger, or tomato with some chili.

    Or a world without Indian food, which makes very frequent use of fennel seed

  • jgeisjgeis Registered User regular
    I really enjoy the taste of fennel seed but I can totally understand why people dislike it because it's a very strong and distinct flavor.

    Pla or kung, usually (I guess gung == kung?). Technically I mostly make tom khlang, because I generally use tamarind.
    But it's one of those 'whatever I have in the fridge' dishes, for me.

    Wanted to try something new tonight, so I tried salmorejo, a puerto rican stewed crab dish with tomatoes and rice

    To be honest, I didn't end up enjoying crab as much as I had hoped, but it was an interesting experiment

    Sweet basil and honeyed pine nut ice cream turned out very, very well and now it's just setting for the day.

    I'm making a batch of muhammara for the outrigger canoe pot luck I'll be at tonight and I just love the way charring peppers makes my apartment smell.

    I have another batch of sourdough resting on the fridge. Making up some more Bacon Sourdough. Going to turn some into grilled cheese sandwiches with gouda, colby jack and cheddar tomorrow night, as well as bringing in a loaf to work go pair up with some Brie.

    Better make up a tomato soup to dip those in.
