This might be a thing everyone knows and I am dumb about but if you just need a thing to taste better, like for instance a potato salad that came out blander than you wanted, Samber powder is magical. I've put it in so many things and it's always good!
I am excited, Saturday is going to be chili day. I think this time I'm going to bloom those spices a bit with the onion and garlic to awaken the flavor.
I found pumpkin spice flavored coffee beans at Aldi
I am using them to make cold brew coffee, which should be ready when I get home tonight
Cold brew is typically pretty damn strong, caffeine wise, even if it's really smooth and not bitter, so I'm just going to take a small cuppa when I get home
I made jambalaya, one of the few things I know how to cook that involves five or more ingredients.
This batch came out pretty dang good, if I do say so. Made sure to brown the chicken and sausage first, and put the rice and shrimp in last, after everything else had come to a slow boil.

Just popping in to say, if you can afford ceramic coated cookware, fucking buy that shit oh my god this frying pan is so good and it just wipes clean with a little soapy hot water and a sponge or a cloth. Like, it's ridiculous. And oven safe. I love it.

While I’m not quite ready to go full vegan/vegetarian just yet I am definitely trying to eat meat much less often, and this channel is becoming a huge source of inspiration:

Today’s farmers market haul:
As cook-along folks may guess I am absolutely making Three Sisters soup again, the king oyster mushroom on the left is getting shredded for tacos and the massive oyster mushroom cluster is getting pan-seared whole
We made shredded King Oyster mushroom tacos a few weeks ago, it was really good, like surprisingly really good. I don't think you'd ever mistake it for meat but it was really delicious.
Chili night went super good! It was just a basic recipe but I've never used the slow cooker for it before, and it turned out great. Perfect consistency, right balance of flavors, and it half an alarm at best so people could add hot sauce to make it more or less spicy.
had some leftovers to use up so I made sardine and potato fishcakes
but they were startlingly average so even though they looked good and I took a photo, I'm not gonna post it. Has to be delicious to be deserving of the thread.

Now I’m craving some spicy sardines with onion and yellow mustard sandwich!
Avocado stuffed chicken for dinner tonight! We followed a recipe, which we don't normally do. It was fine, but a little bland. Needed more spice on the chicken.
There is an old avocado orchid near my dad's house. I gotta keep eating these suckers we got so many of em!

Sardines! Sardines! Love a fresh plate of sardines.

I found the bad food thread for my first food posts little bit rusty. Tonight, Mediterranean tilapia- tilapia cavity stuffed with dill and cilantro, red onion on top, ginger, white wine reduction, garlic. Fish seasoned before putting in pan with cumin, coriander, paprika, kosher salt, black pepper. Cooked and then topped with green onion and tomato before a quick broil.

So it's not huge, but I have a small kitchen built to the sensibilities of the 50s. I spent this afternoon cleaning up a corner of my limited counter space, got rid of a lazy Susan spice rack and replaced it with a skinnier shelf that puts everything in reach for the items I use on a regular basis. I probably gained over 2sq ft of counter space and increased storage by going vertical. I'm quite happy with how it turned out. I also cleaned out my spice rack and alphabetized it.
- I put in too much chicken. A 2:1 chicken:potato ratio is easily enough. 2:5 would probably work well.
- Winter greens take longer to cook than I vaguely assumed on the basis of doing no research or recollection at all. I expected 15-20 mins on a low simmer, so I put them in towards the end of the cooking. They actually took more like 30-35. That did the chicken thigh meat no real harm, and actually gave the potatoes more time to fall and thicken the broth, but I had put in some other veg to use up the orphans in the fridge and the bell pepper and courgette I put in with the greens were more cooked than I prefer.

The grounds smelled great, I am hopeful

oxo makes a good pair
I haven't had a problem with mine at any rate!
Do they separate for easy cleaning? Key thing when used to cut meat.
professionals love to recommend them, I suspect it's because they can afford to just buy a new pair every six months
yep
Created a big mess to clean up but it was worth it, it tasted so good
it helps that they really promote using mushrooms in place of meat in a lot of dishes and I fucking love mushrooms
all the usual suspects inside except no walnuts
I added spicebush berries and sprinkled pulverized lavender blossoms and rose petals on top of homemade buttercream icing

I'd post a picture but it all got eaten!

Ew gross, you're not one of those god-damned millennials, are you?
HAVE WE BEEN INFILTRATED?!?
I might nod in a show of knowing respect, perhaps.
Game recognize game.
I'm 36, so I think I am a millennial, right?
Anyway, my gastroenterologist said I should avoid avocados and I miss eating them
Eliminating them and some other items from my diet has calmed my guts somewhat
Eager to get some resolution
I'm 37 and I'm a millennial, so you probably are too.
I was the stage manager for our uni production. It's just as much chaos in the actual backstage as on the show.
Anyways the movie stars Carol Burnett and a bunch of other comedy greats from the late 70s. Definitely a good watch.

Kinda wanted chicken stew
I'm taking the obvious way out of this dilemma, especially as it's a long and uncertain trek to the nearest place that actually sells linguica.
EDIT: this is smelling pretty good. I shoulda thought of this before.
Learning points:
- I put in too much chicken. A 2:1 chicken:potato ratio is easily enough. 2:5 would probably work well.
- Winter greens take longer to cook than I vaguely assumed on the basis of doing no research or recollection at all. I expected 15-20 mins on a low simmer, so I put them in towards the end of the cooking. They actually took more like 30-35.
