We're working on it.

I'm eating Jello out of a wine glass.

So how many of the Australians here ate Indian last night?

Were we supposed to?

I'm Canadian and I had Indian last night. What do I get?

I ate french fries out of a vending machine last night!
WHOA.

I made this, using veggie broth instead of plain water. I've never done soba before and the instructions were in Japanese - I think they're a little too tender. Super flavourful, though. Bok choy was again blanched a little too long but tastes alright. If I can get the textures proper I'll be singin' next time.

And I'm drinking an Innis & Gunn with it cause why fucking not

I am drinking an orange-flavoured Mother energy drink. It is not as bad as I thought it would be.

Potential solution: Never stop drinking caffeinated drinks

David_Dovey · « **Reply #763 on:** 25 Feb 2010, 04:35 »

The fact that you could go to sleep proves you weren't trying hard enough

Inlander · « **Reply #764 on:** 25 Feb 2010, 05:23 »

Speaking of caffienated drinks, if you're in Australia and you like Earl Grey tea don't ever try Jasper's Earl Grey tea. They put lavender in it! Hey! Jasper! If I'm drinking Earl Grey I want it to to taste of two things:

1) tea;
2) bergamot.

Get your bloody frou-frou lavender out of my damn tea. Actually maybe you should stop trying to make tea altogether and just stick to coffee, as it's obviously what you do best.

Leftover pizza plus leftover pasta equals good tasty dinner and I guess indigestion.

Inlander · « **Reply #777 on:** 26 Feb 2010, 03:39 »

Tonight for dinner I made my own particular version of a puttanesca sauce or however you spell it to have with pasta. I've made it a few times, and it goes a little something like this:

First you stir a whole lot of chopped-up pancetta in some olive oil until it's a bit cooked, then you chuck in a whole lot of skinned and pulped tomatoes, then you put in a whole lot of finely chopped anchovies (if you chop them up they dissolve throughout the sauce for extra deliciousness) then you put in a whole lot of pitted olives then you cook it all til the tomatoes are reduced to a good saucy consistency then you put in a little bit of chilli (unless you're using hot pancetta) then you stop cooking the sauce and take it off the heat then just before serving you stir in some fresh basil then you serve it with some spaghetti and some grated cheese.

You have to cook the spaghetti, too.

october1983 · « **Reply #778 on:** 26 Feb 2010, 05:09 »

I know you said your its own particular version, but I'm pretty sure grated cheese is a cardinal sin in the puttanesca world!

(That said I'm sure it is delicious with it)

KharBevNor · « **Reply #779 on:** 26 Feb 2010, 14:07 »

I'm eating a Chicken Korma with Saffron rice and Naan bread (basically the yellowest dish in the world).

I cooked it by walking down to the Nabab Tandoori on St. James street, asking Rohit if he wouldn't mind arranging for one to be cooked for me, then transferring to him a quantity of promisory notes. Then I carried it back to my place of residence and transferred the various portions of the meal from foil containers to bowls and trays. Serve with a cup of coffee because I've actually just woken up, despite the fact it's ten o clock at night.

Shittdamn now I want korma (lamb though) and saffron rice and naan bread. It is only 2pm, still lunch time, perhaps I should go for a walk and get some.

Just made scrambled eggs with chanterelles my mom found growing wild in our yard, baby dill, onions and garlic. Totally delicious, subtle meaty flavor, they were well cooked, fluffy eggs, everything was perfect about this breakfast.

My roommate took one bite, said "yup, tastes like chanterelles!" then poured ketchup all over them, mixed them with his undercooked overspiced potatoes, and said "looks like another phenomenal breakfast."

I fucking hate cooking for these people.

Professor Snuggles · « **Reply #784 on:** 27 Feb 2010, 10:44 »

Chanterelles are fucking 20 dollars a pound if you buy them in the damn store.

Everyone in my life has this issue. This or ranch dressing.

All food-items must be slathered in sauce at all times.

jhocking · « **Reply #786 on:** 27 Feb 2010, 13:08 »

People who put ketchup on eggs (which is a lot of fucking people) disgust me. I've seen people put ketchup on french toast because it has egg in it.

Alex C · « **Reply #787 on:** 27 Feb 2010, 13:11 »

Yeah, fuck those guys.

At least use a nice salsa or something. I'm down with divorced eggs, for example.

pilsner · « **Reply #788 on:** 27 Feb 2010, 13:15 »

There's actually a pseudo-scientific reason why ketchup is as popular as it is. It's one of the few sauces that hits 4 of the 5 flavors (sweet, sour, salty and umami). Also the reason why specialty ketchups haven't had much success in breaking Heinz's stranglehold on the market, the way, for instance, the mustard or salsa market is split up.

Only on chicken nuggets, pizza, and french fries.

Ranch dressing is awesome for dipping veggies in. My fiancee has made me into a fan of snacking on yellow peppers with ranch dressing as a dipping sauce.

Alex C · « **Reply #791 on:** 27 Feb 2010, 13:33 »

Yeah, ranch dressing is pretty much for vegetables only, as far as I'm concerned.

Yeah, I just ate some home-made chicken tenders with home-made ranch, so I'm with those guys. Blue Cheese is best for Buffalo wings though.

Good homemade ranch is leagues more acceptable than store-bought ranch, so I'd be willing to give it considerably more free roam over my food, but even then it is a stretch.

Tonight my dad grilled up pork ribs and oh my god they were perfect. I've never cleaned rib bones that effortlessly in my life, even with boiled ribs (which are a fucking abomination and my dad knows it because he grills all his meat like a Real Man).

Other night I made some epic tri-tip steak. I grilled double as much as usual with the intent of having leftovers for the fridge, but we ate the leftovers before they ever dreamed of hitting the fridge. My stepmom is incredibly hard to please when it comes to cooking (despite her terrible cooking) but she devoured those fuckers and so did my dad and I am pretty proud of myself because that has never happened in the history of tri-tip within this household. VICTORYYYYYYYY

I put tomato sauce (ketchup, not pasta sauce) on eggs, because while I don't mind eggs, too much of the egg-y flavour makes me gag and want to vomit. That is why always have scrambled eggs or omelettes, because fried eggs with runny yolks are disgusting to me. Just the look of runny eggs makes me feel sick.

Tomato sauce on french toast is a fucking terrible thing to do.
