  • Of course! If you cut it very thin it's crunchy but not hard to chew through. A julienne cut (1/8in or 3mm) with a knife gets it to look pretty but shredding would work too taste-wise

  • I usually do avocado, carrot, and cucumber with a sprinkling of sesame seed. The avocado is soft while the others are crunchy and they offer a nice texture dinamic when balanced. They also have a nice fresh taste that compliments the sharpness of wasabi and the savory/salt of soy sauce

  • Vegetarian sushi comes to mind. Sometimes I even prefer it to sushi with fish when I'm in the mood; it's crisp and refreshing when done right. If you use good quality nori and rice vinegar you'll get that oceanic flavor you're looking for without any fish.

  • I mainly get them from YouTube and their resppective websites. My favorites are:

    Babish Culinary Universe (Everything)Pailin's Kitchen (Thai)Sheldo's Kitchen (Sotheast Asian)Brian Lagerstrom (Baking and American)Curries with Bumbi (Indian)Hanbit Cho (Baking)

  • Second for Half Baked Harvest. I love how cozy the site looks and the recipes are great

  • Ironically, lots of food actually has wood in it. Any time you see "cellulose" or "cellulose powder" on the ingredient list it's actually just wood pulp. It's used as a thickening agent

  • Garbage plates sound horrible in theory but they are litterally so good. They hit hard after a night out or if you have the night munchies. I'm not sure if they're popular elsewhere but they are a staple of upstate New York

  • Lol I was half asleep when I read that ngl

  • Fun fact, Ramen was originally Chinese, derived from a dish called la mian

  • These three from Babish are my favorite, especially the chili garlic one.

    If you wanna go really cheap you can just add colby jack cheese, curry powder and onion powder to chicken ramen, which was my go to in college

  • Highly underrated, but a good thermometer can help a lot with cooking meats. Getting the right temp is much more accurate than cooking by sight or feel, and having one that reads in under a second is super convenient.Typhur makes some quality ones that I like to use

  • Hard agree. I feel like you can cook almost anything with just a cast iron pan and a chef's knife. It's the essentialist's gadget of choice

  • Canned chipotles in adobo are really good additions to anything savory. Add it to mayo or mac n cheese for a smoky & tangy depth of flavor. Plus where I live it's like 70¢ a can, which is a great price for how much it upgrades the dish.

  • Lemmy and their hatred for beans...

    I love homemade refried beans. The haters are definitely missing out

  • Looks delicious! There are a couple of techniques to get good pics of food; here are a couple I can think of off the top of my head:

    Take the picture in an area void of distractions like an empty tableCenter the item of interest in the middle of the plate and make sure it's clean of crumbs or fingerprintsUse garnish to make colors pop (e.g. like green chives on white mashed potatoes)Take the pic in good lighting, sunlight from a window is bestGet close enough to the food to fill the whole frame, leaving a little space on the edges . Get even closer to get good food textures

  • Autocorrect lol. I indeed meant "Cavender's"

  • I love using turmeric. You'd be srprised how well it pairs with so many things, plus it's very healthy. It goes naturally with a lot of middle eastern and south asian food, but you can also add it to sauces and soups for warm and earthy notes (if that's your thing like me).

    As for spice mixes, I love Cadaver's greek seasoning. It's pretty simple (salt, pepper, organo, with a few others) and you can enhance pretty much anything with it

  • Bro really wanted his chicken well done at 400°F

  • Ad baculum 🤔
