OMG, we just found this restaurant making tracks on my FB feed and they have a location within a mile or two of the office. The lads are drooling over the menu.

Kept meaning to post about this...
The Long Distance Significant Other got me a few things for Christmas. He typically gets me a couple of gag gifts, a very nice calendar, usually something pretty and sparkly... but there is always at least one surprise.
In the interest of gag gifts I received three cans of Kimch. It is called "Crazy Tiger Jumping On The Roof". Three cans. No, I'm not going to be required to eat it. Gag gift in more than one sense.
Also received a set of Cat Butt cookie cutters. Let's just say I am very slightly disturbed what you can get for cookie cutters.
And the mostest favoritist giftey:
The Complete Irish Pub Cookbook! There are several recipes I want to try in this book.
So, I plan on gaining a few pounds trying the recipes in this book.

The end of an era: Pea Soup Andersen's in Buellton, a SoCal landmark, closes suddenly just shy of its 100th anniversary.

Oh, noes! Though the Harris Ranch made a trip up I-5 more delightful, it could never hold a candle to stopping at Andersen's on US-101.Estiveo wrote: ↑Wed Jan 10, 2024 11:52 pm The end of an era: Pea Soup Andersen's in Buellton, a SoCal landmark, closes suddenly just shy of its 100th anniversary.

When I was a kid, we always loved stopping there because the pea soup would give everyone serious gas, and my sister and I delighted in seeing who could crank out the loudest and longest.

You can still get gas at their Santa Nella location, at the junction of the I-5 & SR-33 in the Central Valley.

If you're like me, you'll hate that every recipe you find online has 4½ pages of digression about how the author's grandmother's goat in the old country once stopped pirates from burning down the church and saved the town and they celebrated with this recipe and that's why it's traditional to serve it whenever little Jaiçon's squash team ekes out a win blah-de-freakin'-blah-get-to-the-point-already-willya!
But I digress.
Just type cooked.wiki/ in front of the https/ in the recipe's URL.
It'll strip away everything but the ingredients in one column, and the instructions in another.
There's other things you can do at the cooked.wiki site, but this may be the greatest gift to modern cookery since Mario Batalli was banished from polite society.

many online recipes have a print button that shows a dialog box that allows you to print the whole thing, just the recipe, recipe and nutrition info, etc.
ETA: they MUST put in all that guff so they can copyright it. Most recipes are copied and minimally modified by the 'author'.

Some are familiar; some are not. But I don't think I ate most of them. Thankfully.

Also, the put all that stuff in in the hope that the search engine’s algorithm will pick up on the keywords and move it up the list. You’ll notice they repeat a lot of the same words.

I am embarking on an adventure. I am going to attempt to make my own sushi rolls. I love veggie sushi (cucumber/carrot or Sweet potato) but it is expensive to order it from the local places. Tasty, but can get pricey. So I've been researching.
We already had the rice cooker, so good there. I already had the short grain Japanese rice, because I really like sticky rice and will make it then use it the next day for fried rice.
Bought a sushi oke (wooden tub used to cool and season the rice), some kombu to cook the rice with, and of course the nori and veggies. No sweet potato, sadly. Just the cukes and carrot. But I love it that way anyway.
I rinsed/washed the rice until the water was clear and am now soaking it for a few minutes before cooking it. I will let you now how (or if) it works.
And yes, I have the mat for rolling and all that fun stuff. You Tube is a fabulous resource, by the way. Found a few Japanese (translated of course) you tubes to watch and attempt to follow.

I'll be interested to hear how it turns out.

Turned out very tasty. I have to work on my rolling technique and I put too much rice in so it all kind of shot out the sides and end, but really tasty. Just doesn't look at pretty as a pro does it.

9½/10, would schnarf down with a Sapporo.
Your rolling technique is better than mine & will doubtlessly improve with practice.

Whooo hooooo! My first King cake of the season (I know, I'm late) and it's already half gone. Haven't found the baby yet either. I warmed up with a cream cheese and will move on to praline and blueberry soon enough.

Interesting article to read while having my morning brew of dark-roasted rat poop.
I remember reading something years ago about a beer company who changed their process that caused their grain to be used earlier and not sit around as long (in storage or possibly in the hoppers). It ended up changing the taste of the beer (apparently for the worse) because they had lost the added flavor of something that would grow in the stored grain.
