In further discussions about all things bad food related, I got to experience Taco Bell's new Potatorito and it is quite good and filling but still makes me feel like death afterwards.
A fine sacrifice to fulfill my potatoes and beef allotment for the day.

I can't decide between Gulab Jamun, jaleebi, or halwa though.
Basically if there's an Indian sweet, I will gobble it up.
I've never tried marmalade and I kind of want to? but I also don't want to just buy a jar and then not like it?

Nope. I ate all three.
semolina pudding with essentially pure brown sugar flavouring and then a little bit of dried fruit and some pistachios.
she also made some ladoo and somebody brought Jaleebi and I was honestly the happiest fat white lady ever.

I would like to think I'm not going to do this thing, but I'll settle for hoping that the number is smaller than I always suspected it was.
It's only hubris if you fail.
Marmalade is very bitter, heads up in case that's an issue for you.
Also I find indian desserts incredibly sweet, the idea that they're not primarily sugar bombs is wild to me
Maybe you could find a jam sampler that has a small jar of marmalade? Enough to sample it, but not enough to feel bad about throwing out if you don't like it.
Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Bonne-Maman-Assorted-Mini-Jams/dp/B008X8EGGK/ref=sr_1_8?crid=2CBFRNGX7D5AB&dchild=1&keywords=preserve+sampler&qid=1622754602&s=grocery&sprefix=preserve+sampler,grocery,196&sr=1-8
Though, those are tiny jars and pretty pricey for 5 tiny jars of preserves.
Personally, I think I'd gamble the 5 bucks on just getting a small jar at the grocery store and live with the guilt for tossing it out if I didn't like it.
whoops there I went vagueposting again
yeah Indian desserts aren't not-sweet but they tend to have a lot of flavor and depth beyond "it's a huge pile of sugar!" that I really like
or I'm just weird which also seems extremely likely
My brain:
So you're in line at a fast food place, right?
and you notice that their 'spicy chicken sandwich'
is just absolutely drenched with something called "peppermint ranch".
You decide not to order this item.
You feel empowered.
(just remembered this very stupid bad food dream I had)
Gulab jamum.
Guuuuulab jamooooom.
Oh tikka masala, like I always get? With an extra order of garlic Naan?
Wow, thread you guys know me so well that sounds great thank you.
I'm sorry it's so fun to say I don't even know what's in it
It's soaked in syrup and cardemom and rosewater.
just perfect for you, Juggs

Did you say motherfuckin desserts?
Hell yeah you did cause that's what it is good job
The instructions are pretty simple, sweat out the onions in the drippings, add the apples and cook until tender, then mix in the rest of the ingredients and heat everything through. I think I'll up the curry powder amount, a teaspoon seems a bit scant for that much food. The use of apples is interesting, I mean I think apples and pork actually go together quite nicely but I wonder if the use of tart apples and lemon juice was to evoke the tanginess of tamarind or like mango pickles?
1 whole onion diced

Whisper your memories of pork into a cloth handkerchief and then wring it out into the pot

Seven. It was seven samosas, and now I can go fall into a food coma and never do this again.
Edit: Okay, eight. I'm putting them away now, I swear.
So I was curious about that too because a lot of the recipes aren’t particularly extravagant but they also don’t scream depression-era cooking, and they actually explain in the foreword that these recipes were originally broadcast over the radio by the Department of Agriculture beginning in 1926, so a few years before the depression really kicked off.
Don't you dare.

You are absolutely cooking a radio-audience version of a Ranji Smile recipe. He was to curry powder in the early 20th century what Emeril Lagasse was to creole seasoning in the early 2000s.
Ranji Smile was a celebrity chef when that meant having your own restaurant in a hotel that people travelled from all over the country to eat at. If you want his full biography and some of his other recipes, I highly recommend Eight Flavors: The Untold Story Of American Cuisine by Sarah Lohman.
The book also contains the best recipe for chocolate mousse I have ever made. In the soy sauce chapter, if that piques your interest.
I, uhhhh, have the exact opposite experiences with Indian sweets? Every time my boss or coworkers bring them in, I try to eat one to be nice, and then go into a sugar coma for a few hours
I would actually be very interested in that chocolate mousse recipe.
Also this curry is really tasty. It's far from the most dynamic curry I've ever had, but it's really, uh, harmonious? Everything blends together really pleasantly. It's a little sweet, a touch sour, and it feels immediately like a comfort food even though I've never had it before.
Need some stuff designed or printed? I can help with that.
Kaju katli maybe? No cardamom in that that I've ever had
Man I do agree that most Indian sweets are too sweet for my tastes but I fuckin love kaju katli
