Remove most of stalks from cauliflower. Brush with oil, salt, and pepper. Add a bit of water and cover. Pop into oven and set temp for 420.

Brussels sprouts get a similar treatment but are set aside for now.

I made some sort of chicken taco soup last night, will post pic when I get home.

Bought a rotisserie chicken. Ate the wings and stripped the rest of the meat off. Boil carcass with some carrots and celery for at least 2 hours. Strain to get a very basic broth.

Fry onions in either oil or chicken fat from the skin you managed to not eat. Add chopped green pepper and soften them both up. Throw in some garlic and fry for about a minute. Then add a can of diced tomatoes and blended chipotles in adobo (this is where you control your heat). Also added cumin, chili powder, oregano, S%P.

Cook for a bit and add your chicken broth to desired thickness. Once it has gotten to a simmer add a drained can of corn and 2 cans of drained black beans. At this point I smashed a handful of the beans to thicken it up. Simmer for about 20 to let those flavors marry. Add your chicken and let it warm up. Finish with a squeeze of lime, 1.5 limes was surprisingly too much for all that.

Garnish with your choice of cheese, sour cream, cilantro, lime wedge, green onion, tortilla strips, and avocado. I just went with sour cream and avocado last night.

Shit was pretty good considering how little cooking was actually done.

Yeah not the best visual experience but I must say I'm liking the taste. Also definitely just made this up like 5 minutes before I started posting.

Went with cauliflower for a sauce figuring white on black would look good but it didn't maintain. Too much noodles too but I didn't want to waste and it was the last of the bag. Only second time trying out the black bean noodle dealio. Did a red sauce yesterday and it just didn't taste right together.

Not sure how to present the sauce better either. If non vegan I'm sure a cream or cheese sauce would substitute well and be cleaner presentation.

Over all I really like the flavor and texture etc that came together. Next time I will just leave the Brussels sprouts separate since they really didn't take on any flavors and would present better on top of the sauce. Any other recommendations for improving presentation are welcome.

also possible veggifag, ive been wanting to give cauliflowers a shot, would like a suggestion i saw a buffalo recipe that claims to be dank i need to step up my veggie game

>>7366086
Vegan and don't eat grains except corn. They just make me fat and I lost a bunch of weight cutting them out and don't want to add back in. I allow myself very small amounts now and again. And I don't mind the haters. If ya can't take the heat get out the kitchen right?

On the black bean noodles....they are ok. Not my favorite in regards to pasta substitute but certainly not bad. Definitely al dente. Spaghetti squash is top tier but this is probably next runner up for appearance and texture similarity. I usually just julienne zucchini though for best taste aside from spaghetti squash. Also cheap and available. Summer pasta for me = zucchini. Winter = squash.

Elaborate on this buffalo recipe/link me and I will give opinion. My favorite version of cauliflower is in "steak" form with oil, salt, pepper, cumin, and red pepper. Pic relates but horrible image and not my best one. Next time I'll have to post a cook along.

>>7366140
Cap or not, why waste bandwith for no reason? If only people would realize that if they voluntarily didn't waste bandwidth on silly shit like this then perhaps their internet experience would be so much faster for things that actually do matter, like streaming or large downloads. The next time you're wondering why a big download is taking so long or you're having issues streaming video think to yourself: you know, if people made their photos of silly shit smaller, I wouldn't be having this problem!

I made a Sichuan Salsa verde i took from either Mission Chinese cookbook or Lucky Peaches, 101 easy asian recipes.
Threw it ontop of a a chunk of pork butt and let it go in the slow cooker.

Was decent but i feel like the salsa verde got too diluted by the slow cooker, wasnt quite as flavorful as it should have been.

Didnt take any photos because this thread wasnt up yet ;_;

>>7366155
You actually got me to laugh out loud! Thank you so much. Truly....thank you.

>>7366156
It wasn't the cooker I think but rather the meat that diluted the flavor. There is a lot of water/fat etc not to mention the meat itself that is going to interact. You have to compensate for the volume you are interacting with. (At least from my own experience. I am no pro)

>>7366155

is alcohol bad for the teeth ? 19yo fag here

also does beer make u fat

>>7366188
He chipped/broke a tooth and generally you dont want to do anything that might mess with the setting while it is fresh.

Beer by itself doesnt make you fat, a lot of people dont think about how many extra calories alcoholic beverages add to meals. It is harder to lose/maintain weight when drinking regularly than just having water because of more calories to keep track of.

>>7366171
Sounds good...but...from my experience cauliflower does not like to roast evenly enough for that method to work awesome all the time. Also you won't really get any crispy textures. It's labor intensive but I recommend cutting your florets so they are flat on each side. Follow the recipe for getting them just tender and instead of finishing by roasting, sear them on cast iron. The difference is HUGE. The additional flavors and textures created are awesome and you will enjoy the dish much much more. I'm gonna have to come up with a vegan dip and try it myself too.

Using a straw will help a bit. Just suck it to to back of your throat ;).
Also have you tried using instant potatoes as part of the breading? I think another anon suggested it and chef john uses it in an onion ring video. Might as well try since you are trying to perfect the fried chigguns.

Start flossing. Once a day at night is enough and you can even skip now and again but.....floss. The shit I pulled out of my teeth once I decided to start was scary. I also used to smoke all sorts of drugs etc and have spent thousands and thousands to save myself from becoming toothless as a matter of fact I am STILL paying and working on my teeth and I haven't smoked drugs in years. The pain is no joke either. Get an electric toothbrush and learn to use it properly. Get a basic toothpaste with fluoride and baking soda. (Extra shit can be bad actually) Start flossing. Do it tomorrow and don't stop. As long as you floss/brush before bed you should be good. Be aware that you may have already damaged your teeth severely and will need serious dental work. Get it done. No one likes to be a gap toothed mofo. True life advice from one anon to another. Also stop smoking the drugs. Weed is least damaging but the others will fuck your teeth even if you maintain them. Shooting up is safest and healthiest way as long as you do it right. Not that I recommend the drugs. Been sober for a while now and once you get there its nice. Sobriety itself becomes a high once you come down.

Also, I put provolone down, then sauce, then mozz, then pepperoni, then a little more mozz. Baked for about 15. Oh and add some type of "Italian" seasoning to the crust. I didn't use the recipes crazy goat cheese etc

Ever heard gunshots? You know everyone else in Houston thinks Gunspoint is a thriving shithole where you might get shot

>>7367532
>is a thriving shithole where you might get shot

not OP but I live in west philly. every middle class white person thinks this because they watch the news and hear "innocent bystander" in all these shootings and shit but thats always wrong. those people were out in the street while everyone knew a gun fight was about to happen and they decided they wanted to watch.

my roommate is so scared he locks the car doors while he sits in the car in the middle of the day and I run into houses/stores real quick. nobody's gonna shoot you if they don't know you and you didn't do something to them.

in general everyone in the hood is far more friendly than other neighborhoods, except for your next door neighbor who will always hate your music and your friends

Best of luck on the quest and be sure to show us the resulting purchase(s).

See, I told you it would be overcooked.

>>7370206
You won't regret getting one. They are cheap and will last a lifetime. I'm just working with a lodge right now myself and it's pretty fantastic. Gonna try sanding it smoother as I have heard recommended and see what happens. Not that I have any issues with it right now anyway but...boredom and human curiosity are a thing.

Roasting.

1/4 cup each of
hoisin sauce
soy sauce
honey
shaoxing wine

1teaspoon chinese 5spice
3 lb pork butt

Marinade for 24-48 hours, let sit for an hour out of the fridge, roast at 300 for 4 hours, baste using the marinade every 10 minutes for another hour. Let rest for 20 minutes after taking out of the oven.

>>7371986
Aldi indeed. Wish they had matching cups but....oh well. Gonna be taking a look through walmart Tuesday and if they have something similar but more to the set I might go that route and just return them. In regards to the sanding...the idea is that you remove the rough finish from sand casting. Smoother finish = better non - stick properties. I've seen a few videos of people doing it and re - seasoning. Will be fun to attempt and will post pics when I do.

>>7372006
I actually really like the colors on those dishes. Nice and vibrant without being garish.

>>7372825
Keep what whole? The cauliflower? I was attempting a sauce not to have noodles with cauliflower florets

You won't get fat unless you use it daily.
Get the fucking deep fryer and you will never regret it. It's the fucking best. Especially if you love wings.
For a beginner, get the fry daddy! It's what I used

>>7374106
>>7374118
I don't know why the smaller pieces were without flavor but I must say it looks pretty good.

>>7374178
What are the benefits of using a deep fryer over let's say cast iron pot with a steel mesh basket? Only thing I can think of is using the fryer to store your used oil and reuse it etc. I rarely if ever deep fry because it feels like such a waste of oil.

>>7374923
I keep mine in the basement so it's not taking up any extra counter space. I usually fry a couple times a week, and change the oil after like 8 frilly sessions or so; or until the oil gets really dark. If you're not interested in deep frying, or if you would just be cooking for one person, I wouldn't recommend it.
But for the price, you can't beat pic related. It's for a beginner and does not have any type of temp control.

>>7375437
Definitely will not be buying one then. Side note...personal experience on how long used oil keeps for? I could put the oil back into a different jug for storage but if it would go rancid quickly seems less worth it. Perhaps refrigeration for continued preservation?

>>7375603

>definitely will not be buying one then

Based on your follow up questions you are obviously a beginner...

>>7375623
he meant he wouldnt use it that often so he's not going to buy it but was just curious about how long the oil keeps

>sear
>non-stick pan

where's the stainless familia?

>>7375603
i've never kept oil for longer than a month. However, I'm sure if you strained, bottled, and refrigerated it, it would last quite a while. I can't give you a date for lack of knowing, but i think that 6mo wouldn't be an issue, even with intermittent use. Oil doesn't "go bad" as quickly as you would think, even if its stored in the fryer with the lid on.

No Valentine's today because we both worked. Going out tomorrow. Making thay meme Hasselback chicken with my own edits. And smashed garlic taters and asparagus and 葱油饼, these Chinese scallion pancake things.

Alright, gonna cook some diced potatoes in salted water. WITH the garlic and white ends of scallions.

Cooking for 20-30 mins at a low boil/high simmer because I live at a high altitude and starches suck.

Why is there no brown? You had too much oil and it was too cold.

fries are russets tossed in olive oil and corn starch. wings are tossed in paprika, salt, pepper, and baking powder. going to make some buffalo sauce in a bit. can't really drink because I've got stupid readings to do and if I drink I sleep.

Ethnic slur-laden war stories and days-long fishing trips.

Really though it's great stuff, particularly the higher strength bottlings. Fruity and smoky and good in an old fashioned or a sour.

made mini cinnamon roll cheesecakes last night. people were really into them despite the icing looking like a certain different secret ingredient.

Cinnamon roll + cheesecake...what sorcery is this!? I don't see how they COULDN'T be well received. Looks pretty top notch!

Pic is my attempt at sauce and noodles from today. Practice is slowly making perfect with learning how to julienne by hand. Tasted good but I should have used more tomatoes for the sauce. Balance wasn't quite right.

I encountered Ninjas from Nebraska. They were obviously well fed so they were a force to be reckoned with. Their ninja suits were camouflage corn fields. I took two double takes when I noticed them so it was technically a quadruple take with a pause in the middle. I say pause, not paws since my dog was back home.

it came out pretty good. think ill go for a 48 hours marinade next time instead of 24.

>>7372848
Both are good, Austin is really fun and nice but its got a lot of traffic and expensive because everyone wants to live there.

>>7391003
expensive compared to elsewhere in texas maybe.
I live in Orange County, it can easily be 1500+ for a <800sq ft studio apartment in the shitty part of town

>>7391014
Yea I mean compared to other parts of Texas. I don't understand how California even exists. A small house in the shitty ghetto parts of los Angeles costs 300 thousand dollars. I can get something similar in my city for maybe 100k and not have to worry about living behind a fence, putting bars on the windows, and being surrounded by gangs asking where I'm from if I drive down a side street.

>>7391044
i really dislike california and want to move elsewhere once i can.
the only thing i will miss is the cultural diversity, its pretty easy to find ingredients and stuff.

tfw trapped between wanting to live in dense urban area and an area with a couple acres of land for growing/raising stuff

>>7391067
Move to Houston.

>>7391106
why?
i actually havent heard many good things about houston...

>>7391106
Houston is a shit hole, same as Dallas and San Antonio..

>>7391067
Really though, do people in California just live their entire lives in a heap of debt until they die? I just can't comprehend the existence of violent inner city ghettos with 400k dollar houses. Most people here pay off their homes over maybe 10-20 years.

>>7391110
Extremely multicultural, you can have your land, not expensive, and easy access to any big city amenities you are used to having. Very high tier food scene from all nationalities.I lived there a few years and loved it.

>>7391116
There's plenty of parts of CA that aren't so expensive, just like elsewhere. It's just the most desirable places like the bay area that are like that, and even then it's completely feasible if you are willing to make tradeoffs (living with flatmates, etc). It's a matter of personal preference whether those tradeoffs are better or worse than living somewhere cheaper but less "interesting".

>>7391116
30 year mortgage is standard. A lot of people who have homes in ghetto areas dont own them/have had them since before prices got so crazy.

>>7391123
alright that doesnt seem too bad. ill stick it on the list then.

Dallas was okay. Houston is awful in the times I went, at least the city area.. Only good thing there is MD Anderson and the Woodlands. Maybe the outskirts are okay and I just didn't get a good intro.

Not as much of a shit hole as Montgomery, AL though. The crap from the city spread into towns even 30 mins or more away.
>>7387326

30 more mins to go or so. Gonna heat up the pasta water.

Time is a chief ingredient in quality sauce. I've tried shorter times, but it isn't the same.

There was a family at the church I grew up in where the father was Italian and the mother Lebanese. They made this recipe except increased by 8x or more for church gatherings, or the hospitality weeks of the year we house homeless and made meals for them.

So delicious and nostalgic. Learned some good recipes from that family.

Doing some writing work in the kitchen while waiting. At least I can do some of the work inebriated (Jim Beam).

>>7372006
How old are those colored plates? I just remember my physics teacher bringing ones in that looked exactly like that and running the geiger counter over them to show that they had used uranium based coloring agents on them.
