Welcome to the /ck/ challenge: COLD MAIN DISH MEGA ALPHA EDITION.

>GET CHILLY MAH NIGGAS

That's right: COLD MAIN DISH.
What does that mean? Well, if you can't figure this shit out you should probably stay away from the knives.

*******
Dishes will be scored on the following areas, so keep that in mind.

-Presentation: The appearance of items on the plate; plating skills
-Originality: Creativity in composing the dish
-Appeal: How appetizing the food looks/whether or not the dish appeals to your personal taste as a voter
-Challenge Goals: How closely the entry followed the challenge goal(s)

The distinction between Presentation and Appeal: If someone submits an artfully arranged but burnt steak as an entry, it may score high in Presentation but low in appeal.
*******

Remember people, timestamp and unique identifiers. Stop forgetting damn you.

Results of last month will be posted soon, so keep your eyes open.

It may be important to clarify if it should be cold, as in chilled, or just not hot. Otherwise it's going to be a club sandwich/caesar salad showdown.

I've got four ideas knocking around in my head:

Pork breast in aspic
Tacchino tonnato (slices of braised turkey breast in tuna sauce)
Hideg uborkafőzelék (chilled cucumber 'bisque,' similar to the better known Slavic dish okroshka, but blitzed smooth)
Meggyleves (chilled cherry soup)
>>
>>9117351
This is shake-kun, by the way.

I think most deserts get cold at night naturally, so you don't really need to try to "make" it cold.

Decent bait, though.

You have to cook it with cold.

Numbaz, I feel that should elaborate more on the challenge. Right now it is too obscure in the ruleset. Like for example this >>9119592 Lithuanian soup - it doesn't have to be chilled, room temperature is what you get in most cases. You don't even have to put it in the fridge, just finish placing the ingredients, mix and serve.
I know I have a language barrier and all, but I can't be the only one who needs little more guidelines.
>>
>>9127677
Obviously, I'm not Numbaz, but I'm pretty sure the rules to previous challenges apply to this challenge as well: do what you want and try to justify why it fits into the challenge when you post it. Worst voters can do is give you a zero in the 'goals' rating which, if you ace the other categories, will still put you in the top three if last month's rankings are any indication.

I wouldn't think anyone would get pissy about there the soup is meant to be served at room temperature or at fridge temperature so long as it's not warm/hot. I certainly wouldn't, at least.

Of course, you could always make a sandwich and while that will follow the challenge goals 100%, you'd get a goose egg for originality. See what I mean?

tl;dr, you do you, boo.

Ok, here's my entry. Japanese food works pretty well with the theme, and I settled on cold soba noodles with a cold ginger-soy dipping broth. I served it with hot orange peel herbal tea.

It wasn't bad. I don't think I'd be mad if I ate it again, but I tend to prefer hot meals.

Curses! I was gonna go against my announcements earlier ITT and go the Japanese route, too.

I'm planning to make pressed cod sushi with red and green perilla since perilla plants have taken over my back garden and this gives me an excuse to use them. What else can I use perilla leaves for besides Japanese food? It just grows wild here and in no short supply. It's drowned out my parsley and lovage.
>>
>>9136834
>What else can I use perilla leaves for besides Japanese food?

They're great as a wrap for KBBQ. But if you're japanese or diehard weeb, that may flip some triggers. The antagonism between japan and korea is palpable.

I'm certainly not Japanese and I'm in no way a weeb, so I'm okay with whatever use you can come up with although the green perilla aren't large enough for KBBQ wraps.

Served with buttered spinach and green chilli as well as a slice of bread. And a glass of homemade hibiscus soda.
Course unseen: a tomato salad with homemade chilli vinaigrette was eaten after.
If you're a Brit, this is three of your five a day (including the tomato salad) in one meal. I don't understand why Buttertooths find it such a challenge to find ways to utilise veg.

Hope you like this short adventure into the world of filthy foreigner (Hungarian) cuisine.
Note: this isn't exactly the traditional/authentic version, but it tastes nearly identical. I can give you info on the authentic, if you want, as well as some info on variations on this dish.
>>
>>9144051
Sounds fucking incredible. Makes me wonder why brit cuisine is knocked on exactly. What's the process for hibiscus soda? Hibiscus syrup with seltzer?
>>
>>9144333
Thanks. To be clear, the dish is not Brit food. It's Hungarian. I only mentioned Brits because of their on-going Five-A-Day campaign wherein the government are trying to get the British public to eat veg and many of the public complain that eating five veg per day is some unsurmountable challenge.

The hibiscus soda was made with homemade hibiscus syrup. I buy dried hibiscus from a Polish supermarket near me (closest thing to Hungarian I can find here) and brew it in boiling water, like a tea, but at 4x strength. Then I sweeten it. To make the soda, I just mix the syrup 1:3 with sparkling water. Mineral water is fine if that's all you can get, but I prefer soda water because it doesn't have that mineral-y taste to it.
>>
>>9144488
Thanks Hungarianon for keeping the thread bumped.
I'll have to try that carrot sauce, and hibiscus syrup for a soda would be a good use for these fuckers that grow like goddamn weeds.
>>
>>9144923
I have hibiscus growing in my yard (blue Rose of Sharon) here in Texas, and even with my sporadic watering it continues to thrive.
I'd like to get some use out of the lovely petals, and so far all I've thought of is Hibiscus Sugar for Christmas gifts.

I'm not sure, but aren't there some types of hibiscus which are edible and others which are not?
I expect my entry will be Thursday, as said earlier.
>>
>>9145167
Rose of Sharon is edible, and quite nice.
I just don't find many uses for it because I'm personally not a huge fan of sweet things, which is a surprise given the rest of my family's tastes, as well as my own childhood tastes.
>>
>>9145177
I just looked it up and I think Rose of Sharon is the same sort of hibiscus I used to make the syrup, 'Chinese' hibiscus (even though the scientific name is 'Syrian' hibiscus; go figure).
If it's the same, pick it. Dry it. And make syrup of it. I use 40g for a litre of water then add a Eurocup of sugar to that for syrup.
Also (again, if it's indeed to same plant), the whole thing is edible, but I think the leaves and stems need to be cooked first. The leaves taste a bit sour/tangy and slightly bitter, as well. A lot like tough sorrel, really. Makes for a good soup and pairs pretty well with fish. The stems I've never eaten, but I know you can.

Roasted beef tenderloin sliders (medium rare) with blue cheese and wild mushroom espagnole sauce, coconut crusted shrimp, extra thin waffle fries, all served cold.

>yes, it would probably be better hot

I'm back on the line and don't have the time or energy to make an at-home entry these days, but when servers fuck up an order and we have extra food I often wrap it up, stash it in the lowboy, and eat it cold for dinner when I get home, after a few drinks - 5-6 nights a week. My philosophy is that if a server fucks up an order and I have to make it twice, that first fuck-up is going to me, not FoH.

For your consideration, I would like to present my interpretation of perhaps the most prevalent "chilled dish" in classic American Cuisine.

Behold my irregular yet elite slice of wood-fired pepperoni pizza. Homemade dough, chilled overnight, then topped with only the most premium Newman's Own Fra Diavolo, Boar's Head Mozzarella, some kind of turkey pepperoni, and parmesean crumbly. Fired in a ~800 wood burning pizza oven, this is perfect pizza was then chilled in the back of my fridge for 3 days before being consumed early Friday morning as I was on my way to work.

Here's my entry, my favorite summertime meal, tuna pasta salad. Works great for a standalone meal salad, or as a side dish. Quick and easy to make.

Made with spaghetti, onions, garlic, bell pepper and tomatoes. Covered with a dressing of mayo, cream, oil, mustard, pesto and soy sauce, along with some herbs to taste.

Hate to be /that/ asshat, but I might use octopus instead of the cod I mentioned in >>9136834
I was routing about in my freezer for a bag of cauliflower florets I froze a while back and found an octopus I'd forgotten about, so I think I'll thaw it out, slow cook it dry in the oven to make it tender, then cool, slice and add to the sushi. Only thing, I wouldn't use the cucumber then, right? Cuke and octopus don't seem like they'd play well together and I really wanna use some cuke, so I may stick with cod anyway and just have an octopus salad on the side.

Never had spaghetti as a western-style pasta salad but certainly looks like something I'd eat. There's a Burmese noodle salad I like that uses wheat noodles, but since I can't find the right sort of wheat noodles where I live, I just use spaghetti when I make it.
For obvious reasons, hot countries have a lot more cold mains than other countries tend to.

Pimento Cheese and Bacon Deviled Eggs
Made with handmade mayo, Austrian beer mustard, extra sharp cheddar, egg yolks, pimentos, etc.
The acid in the mayo is 2 parts lemon juice to 1 part champagne vinegar.
The seasoning topping is a creole seasoning made with smoked paprika.

Yes, it is a main dish. I just ate the whole plate of them for dinner.

I cook as much every night, five to six nights a week, as most people cook in a year. Yeah, I don't have the repertoire or the experience to open my own restaurant at this point (well I could, but it wouldn't be anything special), but I'm a professional line cook. It's a shitty job with shitty pay, but when you cook as much as I do you git gud Real fast.

Cooking is a craft, not an art, or whatever. You get better the more you do it, and working the line makes home cooks - your "foodie" uncle - look ridiculous.

I'm sorry that you don't understand this, but most people who've never been on the line don't. I don't consider myself anything special in the industry, but I've been lead line cook at three different places, and am currently sous chef... It's the worst possible career choice I could have made, but I'm just about as professional as you can get.

Protip: most chefs eat shitty pizza 5 nights a week because they don't want to cook after spending their entire day cooking.

This. I've worked as a washup kid in a hotel restaurant, that was busy almost 24/7 and I've seen my share of kitchen and know a few cooks and chefs. I can honestly tell anyone who thinks chefs cook some exquisite shit for themselves is a fucking lie. They just get high and eat some takeaway or leftovers.

Oswald's gonna stew in his own juices a while so into the slow cooker he goes.

As for pic related: he's all cooked now. Just gotta cool him off and chop him up for oshizushi (octopus for oshizushi is chopped rather than sliced. I know for nigiri, it's sliced, but I think it could be either/or for maki).

Into a container and into the fridge he goes. I'll be chopping him up later.

Are the pics considerably less blurry now? I was looking up some techniques to use to get better quality pictures despite parkinsonian tremors After reading about a world-class nature photographer with Parkinson's.

soaking rice is not something you need to do if you have a strainer. just blast water over it flipping the rice around for a minute and you are done. The only thing soaking rice does like you are doing is removing nutrients.

So all done and eaten. Sadly, it didn't look too good. Started having tremors halfway through and fucked up cutting it. The sides looked good, though! Just the sushi itself looked rubbish.

Depends on the type of rice. Sushi rice and Lao sticky rice both need soaking for about an hour before cooking, otherwise, they're gummy and unpleasant. I've tried cooking Lao sticky rice without soaking and it was awful.

I just get upset when ppl try to be all "I know more than you bcuz I work in the industry".
It took me a long time to get over myself and LEARN that I don't know shit. Always be learning. I've been taught tricks by dishwashers doing menial tasks, simply because they thought of a more efficient way of performing their task.
As far as the "chefs don't cook at home" trope -
I like to cook at home, but in a less creative way. I make chow, and I make good chow. At work, it's a struggle and I have to work with kitchen managers and purveyors to try to create a menu that our clientele will enjoy. That's why I like this challenge. No pressure. Just kinda screwing around.
There's no pretense, there's no ego, It's just dicking around trying to make something I might like using the challenge guidelines.

People in the industry need more humility. I hold disdain for ppl here claiming that they are king shit of fuck mountain because they've held a position in the field.

Went through today - Gatwick has been under construction for what feels like years, and the Gatwick bus still takes 2 hours to get to London Victoria. Also the e-barriers don't work any more, so queueing with the incompetent riff-raff for minimum 30 minutes at border control. Avoid.

Further on my culinary adventures I present to you a cold dish eaten in a Viking style restaurant in Sweden.

It's a cold wheat porridge, with wild mushrooms and crispy deep-fried cabbage. Despite it being cold, the cheese flavour was very strong, so the extremely bitter cabbage was an excellent balance to the richness. It also benefited somewhat from being eaten with silly old-fashioned utensils. What a novelty! What horrible farts!

Howdy.
It's me, >>9144051 again.
Once more, not making something for the challenge, but I'm cooking another orange-coloured, simple peasant's dish that may be unknown to most of /ck/: pasta with Spanish pumpkin. It's just chilli-and-garlic-infused oil in which cut up Spanish pumpkin is sauteed before being stewed in plain water until it pulls apart into strands. It's then finished with sweet parsley.
To add the pasta, the stewed pumpkin is boiled a second time with a bit more water to which the pasta is added. When cooked, the dish is eaten as a soup-like meal. It's typically made mid-to-late August but the last frost came so far ahead of expectation this year that ripe Spanish pumpkins hit the markets over a month early so I bought a wedge.

Once again, shall I post it here to help keep the thread afloat or plop it into the dickered with Patti thread?

In the pot: 80ish ml of olive oil (about a third cup US), 12 cloves of garlic, 6 dried chillies.
In the bowl, 1200ish g (just shy of 3lbs) of cut up Spanish pumpkin, yield from a wedge originally weighing a little under 1.4kg (just over 3lbs).

Thanks.
Here's the finished dish. That's 75ish g (a bit under 3oz) of pasta. Traditionally, this is made with mixed pasta, so I used about 25ish g (just shy of 1 oz) each of butterflies, hörnli and broken fettuccine. Since butterflies take longest, they went in first. Then the fettuccine pieces. Then the hörnli.
>>
>>9178833
Do you buy the butterflies fully mature or raise them from caterpillars? I like the latter. More cost effective and you can talk to them and tell them your plans. They cocoon up anyway, as if they want to help.

Interesting. Squash hits here early winter.
Definitely a cold weather dish. Not that I would mind eating squash in warm weather, it's just usually synonymous with cream and fall/winter flavors (cinnamon, coriander seed, nutmeg, etc). At least in the USA, or at least in my area of the USA.

Rather, I should say different squash ripen at different times. Zucchini and crook-neck squash are going off right now. Courgette.

Neither. I harvest them, and all my other pastas, from the wild. Having a pasta orchard in the neighbourhood is quite a boon and provides more pastas than we know what to do with. Pic related: it's one of the trees in a pasta grove at the local orchard.

>>9180479
>>9180488
I live in the US, too. Have been for quite some time now.
Different squashes for different times of year, yeah. I know sugar babies, the pumpkin most people here think of when they think 'pumpkin' ripen later than do Spanish ones. They also taste completely different and are super sweet while Spanish pumpkin tastes more vegetal. The two don't look too much alike, either. Sugar babies are globular with shallow ridges and a thicker, bright orange skin while Spanish ones are flatter with deep ridges and a thinner, dusty brown skin.

>pumpkin (and by proxy, pumpkin spice) in the early winter
I've been living in the US for a decade and a half now and I will never understand this horrific tradition. The omnipresence of the stuff from October through January is astounding. It's like "Happy Halloween! Time for this shit to get into everything I eat and drink for the next three months!"

Thank you snow much for your partic-ice-pation in this very succiceful epicesode.

I'm really piste by the lack of feedback from anon. This thread is moving at a glacial pace, but your photos all make me hungry to look at - I have to avalanche while reading, or hail be hungry all day. I want you to snow Alpine for you when the challenge is over. It's snow joke.

Frost and foremost: >>9166192

>>9146939! What a fascinating specimen you've unearthed from the back of your refrigerator - 3 days, ya dingus? Are you sure? for this slice bears the hallmarks of a pizza I once saw in an anime from 1995 - a true relic, I'm sure. Deep pan, crisp and even. Is this even an entry, or just a cry for alp?

>>9146460 Your sad, soggy sliders shouldn't be given the cold shoulder. To coin a freeze: It's1337. You really hacked the challenge. Edward snowed in would be proud.

Blend everything until there are no large pieces left. A bit of texture is pretty nice, but it might fall to pieces later.

The taste should be very strong - when it's cold, you don't taste the spice so much.

Also, I should have mentioned that >>9189683
goes very well with vodka. Don't go paying for shitty smirnoff apple - just make your own sugar syrups, and add flavors you enjoy.

This is probably the smartest idea and I'm embarrassed that I wasn't smart enough to think of it. Kudos.
Can I offer a piece of advice? Gonna anyways. Immersion mixers work best OFF the bottom of the pot/pan/container and at a slight angle. For that small of an amount I'd use a blender or transfer it into a narrower container. This also alleviates unnecessary stress on the motor as you wont have to move the mixer in and out of the liquid mix.
Take it or leave it.

I actually did tilt the pot later, but I couldn't do that and film at the same time. Only so many hands.

I made a few test ice cubes, and they're bretty good, but not as solid as I had hoped. I might try and make a crispy lime-flavored shell for the lollies. They need to sit in the soup without falling to pieces.
