I'm living in Florence for a month and they basically put me up in an apartment in the Chinatown district so I live next door to a Bubble Tea. What's the best stuff to get there? I got the Thai Tea + bubble yesterday and it was pretty fucking good, hurt for 4 Euro though. I like Oolong Teas so what would be the best Oolong based drink they have? Pic related is the menu.

Oolong is great in general but I don't speak moon runes.

can anything compare to that fresh refreshing feeling of a cold glass of sparkling water in a hot summer day
the tiny bubbles tickling the back of your throat as you drink it without the awful syrupy flavor of soda or chemical flavor of diet soda

Baking a cherry pie. I sorta loosely used a recipe.
I used 2 sticks of butter that I froze for a bit before grating coarsely. I added 1/4 cup lard (I actually don't have shortening but I figure lard is fine for adding flakiness to dough) to the bowl of a food processor. Then I added 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 tsp of salt, and 3 1/3 cups of AP flour.
Pulsed that all together, added a tsp of vinegar, then streamed in ice water slowly. Probably 1/2 cup or even 3/4.
Froze the dough for an hour.
Pitted maybe 3.5 pints of sour cherries and added cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon and about 1 tsp of vanilla extract. I added 1/4 cup of red wine. I added maybe a cup and a half or so of sugar, a little cream, some goat cheese that is about to go bad, about 1/4 cup cornstarch, and maybe 1/2 tsp salt.
Baked it in a cake pan (its deep) lined with parchment that I floured and buttered and blind-baked the crust in for 15 minutes covered with beans at 350 (perhaps was a bit too low, we will see) and then 5 minutes uncovered but I didn't wanna cook it too much.
Now baking it with filling added for 50 minutes @ 350. F.
I'm just making it for myself so I didn't do a lattice on the top. Have yet to attempt that. Also feel like that would throw off the filling to dough ratio since I used a lot of cherries.
Anyone else making seasonal fruit pies? What recipes do you like to use?

I use this recipe. Biggest mistake I constantly make is dividing the dough evenly, my bottom crust is always too small.
If you try the tapioca starch with blueberries use a bit more than it says. Mine always comes out runny.
>>
>>9128329
I always try to portion the dough out 55% bottom crust 45% top crust but 3 1/3 cup flour is very generous even for a 2 crust 9 inch pie.
I trimmed the edges with a rubber spatula.

Here's how it turned out. Doesn't look like much but hopefully tastes good.

What's up /ck/,
I'm making dinner for an old friend that just returned from 9 months teaching english in another country. I've got the menu planned out except i'm having trouble figuring out the garnishes for the soup and entree. Also any suggestions to alter the menu so that there isn't so much red would be appreciated.
menu is
App- naked cherry tomato salad with white wine vinegar and mint
Soup- Beet watermelon puree topped with a balsamic reduction and ??????? (i wanted mint here but i didn't want mint with two dishes in a row)
Entree- Miso Glazed cod served with ??? (I was thinking just some sugar snap peas tossed in sesame oil and a little salt)
Dessert- sorbet from a local ice cream shop with bourbon whipped cream
I'm also baking some rustic bread to accompany the meal.
Thanks guys

Good try but I am male cooking for a female.
Although that would be a good option if I knew that sex was a sure thing.

You could make a watermelon gazpacho with the balsamico, add oil, bit of garlic and some chili for that sweet-hot effect. I'm away from home so cant give you a recipe but there's bound to be a few online. No clue as to whether beet would work with that though.

If you like it, but finely grated and mixed into the dressing, not chunks of it.

Good sushi places don't deliver
You're in for some overpriced, rubbery, awful ''''sushi'''' probably with mislabeled fish and that green horseradish paste
The only thing remotely non-disgusting will be the unagi, but you'll pretend to like the shit-tier raw stuff because you think everyone else must be pretending too because "that's just how things are done"
>>
>>9127827
Lots of good sushi places in Japan deliver. Usually they're actually a little better than average since no one is going to pay for the delivery charge for mediocre sushi
>>
>>9127827
yeah it was shit, rice was shit, tuna was ok in the nigiri but nasty as fuck in the maki, avocado was over-ripe
the only thing that actually tasted good was the salmon nigiri
I do like the raw stuff, in fact I eat raw meat every day.

Does anyone here drink Ginkgo tea?
My parents bought a young Gb tree from a family friend and its been growing in the nature so there's no fear of led or chemicals in the leaves, but we never made tea from it. Currently thinking about making tea from fresh leaves.

Did they get the kind that produce the nuts? They kind of look like pistachios and the shells are coated in a nasty smelling goo, but when rinsed, the shell removed and the nut meat toasted in a lightly oiled pan they are delicious. Highly prized in Korea.

I've had it but I don't drink it on the regular. I find it somewhat offensive.

I'm trying to perfect the art of eating well with sprouts.
I tried making hummus but it tasted funky but I had the idea of making garlic aoli and mixing it in.
Anyways tips on making a homemade garlic aoli.
And sprouted hummus tips and tricks?

Just make traditional allioli - oil and garlic. It doesn't need anything else, no eggs, nothing.

Most people only go to TB to steal the sauces, the food isn't very good.

Banana isn't bad, I mean it is the worst flavor, but it's still sugar

What are the best scents achieved from foodstuffs and why is the best salted irish/cultured butter on a fresh toasted roll of choice?
Inb4 REEEE!!! Murifats obsessed with flavorless salty butter only fit for frying eggs and corn! Enjoy your early death from adding salt to everything!
