DAn1ty Kane - My Steak Is DA1maged NSFW • Page 671

I can't get over how much I like this panera sandwich wtf is happening.

 

when you say it like that I sound unreasonable haha. yeah idk it was a spontaneous decision. vodka and that lemonade ginger ale or whatever

which kind?

 

I still need to order this

 

It's the best we don't deserve it

 

Turkey & Avocado BLT on Sourdough. So good. Tastes really fresh. And it's less than 600 calories, so I'm pumped about that.

 

gonna try it out next time I go there, I don't remember which I typically get but it's got like turkey and apples on it lol

 

let me know how you like it! I think it's the best sandwich I've ever had from there.

 

We’re closing at 1 and don’t know about tomorrow yet. I left at 10:30 to go to the county to record some documents so I’m out even earlier.

 

I am gonna be deceased

 

NICE. Im out at noon

 

I'm eating the chili I made last night for lunch and I'm pretty impressed cause I didn't use a recipe and instead just threw a whole bunch of stuff in the pot. Would've been vegan too if not for the chicken stock that I had to use cause I ran out of vegetable stock.

 

This is the way to do it. Just throw all the veggies you have into a pot. Then throw in half a beer and drink the rest

 

what type of stock do you buy or do you make your own?

 

Ohh I never thought to do beer? But that sounds delicious.

I have made my own once, I saved all my vegetables trimmings and peels for a week and made it. It was a lot of work though for a little bit of stock so I usually get it from Trader Joe's. Any tips on making my own (either veggie or otherwise)?

I do make homemade dashi however, so much easier and less time consuming.

 

I need to make my own dashi sometime. That sounds like it'd be so good.

If I make my own stock, it's usually something quick and in the moment. Typically I buy Kitchen Basics (unsalted if I can find it) as I don't have a Trader Joe's less than 30 minutes from my house. I'm not the type to make quarts of my own stock and freeze them to have on hand. That's just too much work and I don't have the freezer space. But if I'm making a shrimp dish, I'll always take the shells and cook those in water with some onion and herbs/spices to have something. The only time I'm making chicken stock is if I'm making a chicken based soup and I'll cook the bones/carcass with some veggies, then skim and strain it.

 

Really mad that I missed the Korean food talk but hell yeah I love all of that shit and also Shin Ramyun is maybe my favorite instant noodles.

 

Dashi is super easy. You only need bonito flakes and kombu. If you don't have an Asian market near you then you can order them pretty easily online.

3 Ways To Make Dashi • Just One Cookbook

This is my favorite website for any Japanese recipe if you ever feel like going for it.

Yeah same for me, it's a lot of work and my fridge is shorter than I am lol. That sounds really good about the shrimp, I love shrimp I just wished my bf did.

The difference in soups with homemade stocks make it worth making honestly.

 

I want to make takoyaki but I shouldn't spend extra money on materials to make something so specific that only I can eat (unless I can make a GF version for Laura)

 

Ughh my favorite EVER. There are a lot of ingredients - most of them can be used in other dishes though. It's the takoyaki pan that would be the biggest expense though. There's a Japanese market in NJ I love to go to and they sell them there, I keep wanting to get it but haven't pulled the trigger yet.

Makes sense if you're the only one who can eat it, it is quite an investment.

 

I just constantly crave it, I don't think there's a single moment where takoyaki doesn't sound good hahaha

 

thanks for sharing this! I'm definitely gonna try it soon.

You're right about homemade stocks being so important for soups. I guess that's partly why I love seafood soups so much. You can use the shells or the liquid from the clams or mussels to get so much flavor. I used to always throw the shells away. Never again.

This stuff is amazing too:

 

Do they have any places that sell it where you live? Luckily Japanese food outside of sushi and pocky and instant ramen has become more and more popular over the years but it's still kind of a niche thing.

Let me know how it goes! It does make the house smell like fish, so be warned.

That's smart. There's something so unappealing about clam juice but I'm sure it works well haha.

 

Will do!

Oh yeah. Any seafood soup or stew I'm making gets a bottle of that clam juice. It adds depth that's hard to get other ways. Even if there's no clams in the dish, it just brings that seafood/briny flavor. It's a good starter for sauce with seafood too.

 

Which market?

 

There's one place about 15 minutes away that makes it well so I'm able to have it occasionally at least!
