Food but not recipes

These YouTube kids are insane.

No. Not insane because there is nobody watching to confirm he ate what he claims. This just another dude looking for views on monetized vids. More views more money $$$.

Luke, you may be gulible.

Chicago deep dish "pizza" is an abomination before God!



Call it what it really is, a "tomato pie".

[bill_g]

Of course! A black woman chef from Mississippi had the greatest influence on the modern deep dish pizza .... and she almost disappeared in history. I'll have to try this sauce. Very simple. Cooking a whole onion, and removing it is new to me. I prefer yeast risen dough, not bisquit dough though. I've had bisquit dough versions, and they were so dry and flavorless, I was choking.

It looks really unappetizing, but I wouldn't call it tomato pie. Tomato pie is made with an actual pie crust and slices of tomatoes. The reason the cheese is put on first in a tomato pie (and a galette) is so the juices don't make the crust soggy. It's also a good excuse to add more cheese. As if we need a reason.

Jon Stewart refers to it as a casserole.

That was referenced in the video. I've never understood the arguments. They don't exist for spaghetti or lasagna which use the exact same ingredients put together differently.

Hail Caesar! At 100 years old, the world’s best salad is having a renaissance
Chefs from around the world celebrate in Tijuana, where an Italian immigrant used leftovers to invent a world-conquering dish

It’s not American. It’s not from Italy. The most famous salad in the world, the Caesar, was invented in Tijuana, Mexico, precisely a century ago.

This week, prominent chefs from across the world are converging on Tijuana for a four-day festival celebrating 100 years of the Caesar salad, a global staple created in the glamorous Prohibition-era Tijuana of the 1920s. A hundred guests are participating in a re-creation of the Fourth of July party at which the Caesar salad was first prepared for a group of visiting Americans. There will be a book launch for a volume celebrating the global reinventions of the salad, from Sweden to Spain to Japan, and happenings at local restaurants across the city. Celebrity chefs including José Andrés, Dominique Crenn and Karime López will make appearances.

For purists, it’s still possible to order the original Caesar salad – romaine lettuce with a dressing made from raw egg, olive oil, lime, garlic, Parmesan and other flavorings – prepared tableside by a formally dressed waiter at Caesar’s restaurant, the Tijuana establishment founded by Caesar Cardini, the Italian immigrant to North America widely credited with having created the Caesar salad.

Today, Caesar’s, which has been revitalized by the Mexican chef and restaurateur Javier Plascencia, reportedly serves more than 2,500 salads a month from a dining room whose dark wood and vintage photographs demonstrate its proud connection to its past.

Meh
I've only had a Caesar salad a couple times.

I will stick an Italian vinaigrette dressing or simply olive oil and red wine vinegar.

[bill_g]

There's a fun fact for dinner conversation. Thanks!

ETA: We are / were big fans of Ceasar Salad. I still am. But! We were often disappointed with what got served at many restaurants. They either don't know how to cut the romaine, or the dressing is wrong / terrible / old, or the croutons are hard - not crisp (there's a difference). It was one of the reasons I started growing our own garlic.

[AndyinPA]

I like Caesar Salad, too, and don't often get very good ones these days. And anchovies seem to be optional. Viking makes a pretty good one and has it on its menu every day, so I ate one nearly every day on the cruise. They did ask if you wanted anchovies or not, though.

Maybe you'd like it better with mayo.

I myself like Ceasar salads, especially with anchovies. Yum.

Penzeys Spices
Sponsored · Paid for by Penzeys Ltd ·
Republicans came to Milwaukee for your rights. That’s wrong. $50 Gift Cards just $35! Please help us speak out.

They came to our hometown this week to come to an agreement on what the future of America should be. It seems their plan pretty much boils down to simply hurting everyone not enough like them. And oil profits. Don’t forget oil profits.

Through the end of the day Sunday, July 21, $50 Penzeys Gift Cards for just $35, mainly out of the hope that you will support us and the messages we share. These are forever gift cards with no fees or expiration dates.

Of all the offers we do, this is the one that gets today’s Republicans most upset. In the long run this really is your chance to get a better deal on your next spice purchase or to be able to gift someone in your life an even bigger assortment of tasty spices and seasonings.

But short run, in this moment you really are just giving us money because we are being honest about the threat the Republican Party has become. They want to believe they will succeed in taking America into the past. With your support we get to reach millions with the message that that’s not the way time flows. This irritates them no end.

All of us working to get through the Republican Convention without the noticeable bump in enthusiasm they needed matters. With what the 11.5.24 Election means for the future of our democracy and our planet and the rights of everyone everywhere the importance of this election can’t be overstated.

They spent hundreds of millions on their convention and it brought them no closer to where they need to be. Support us and we will keep doing what we do to raise spirits, call out their cruelty, share tasty food, and turn out every vote 11.5.24.

For each gift card sold this weekend we will commit $10 to promoting the kind of posts you’ve seen all week from us. We are only getting started. You can order our $50 Gift Cards for $35 here: https://www.penzeys.com/.../special.../c-24/p-3129/pd-s

Wait, there’s more. If you buy three $50 gift cards we will throw in a free $18.95 Remember January 6 gift box.

And for them to win 11.5.24 they have to get enough Americans to give up on caring about other Americans. So through Sunday our regularly $24.95 Care gift boxes are just $10 each. https://www.penzeys.com/.../care-gift-b ... 3114/pd-gb

Plus we now have produced enough of our convention-themed Twilight Revolution Seasoning to offer you up to ten of these regularly $2.49 bags for $1 each with each $1 going to groups working to protect and restore Women’s Rights.

There are so many groups the Republicans are out to hurt right now, and there’s no denying women are at the intersection of all that hurt. And it’s women that, in every election for four years now, that have saved us from the cruelty that has overtaken the Republican party. We owe them. Let’s support them more.

We are splitting all the $1s for Twilight Revolution bags between: Whole Woman's Health Alliance, WMF Wisconsin, Abortion Access Front, A is For, and Planned Parenthood. We’ve worked with all these groups in the past. They are good people.

Penzeys Revolution is an awesome seasoning for cauliflower, chicken, hummus, burgers, tofu, and pretty much anything. Please buy ten and pass them around. And if you could share your Revolution favorites and tips in the comments it would be appreciated.

You can find our Revolution Seasoning here: https://www.penzeys.com/.../penzeys.../c-24/p-339/pd-s

And finally yes, So Long Future Fake Electors : )

There are Republican voters who are decent people but simply out of touch with what the party has become. But those who have risen to the rank of delegate are anything but out of touch.

The delegates knew they were here to take women’s rights, deny Black history, be cruel to transgender kids, and free the fossil fuel industry from any regulation that would prevent them from ending our environment.

And they know January 6 was real, led by their leaders, and something they would gladly do again. We can’t give them that chance.

Support us and we will do our best to make you proud.

$50 Gift Cards just $35. https://www.penzeys.com/.../special.../c-24/p-3129/pd-s

Thanks for helping us be us,

It works if you go to the original Facebook ad. The copy and paste undoubtedly screwed up the links (probably copied incompletely).

I don"t fb nor instagram. Data harvesting. Meta and Zuckster can kiss my backside.

Now I know how much my oregano, basil, sage, parsley, thyme, and rosemary are worth!

The thunder showers rolled through this morning meaning it's an indoor day, or at least an indoor morning. Perfect weather for making peach cordial.

2lbs of peaches (qty 8), 2 med apples, 2 cups water, 1/2 cup sugar, a big tablespoon of lemon juice, half stick of cinnamon, and 4 whole cloves.

Core and chunk the fruit. Leave peels on. Put everything in a large pot. Bring to a boil and then turn it down to a low boil. Let cook for 15 minutes. Mash everything with potato masher as it's cooking. Let it cook for a total of a half hour. Use an emersion blender to whip it all into a thick sauce. Remove from heat and pour mixture through a med fine colander. Force mixture through with spoon or colander pestle.

We have two chinois strainers: one woven stainless steel wire, and a stamped punched aluminum model that looks exactly like this one in the picture below. That's what I used today. It didn't clog from all the fines in the fruit pulp.

The finished product was much like apple sauce. Not quite as grainy. Very distinct peach flavor. The cinnamon and cloves were there, but behaving in the background like they should. The apples didn't stand out at all, but they did lend the thickness I was looking for.

You can eat this with a spoon, mix it in a drink, pour it over ice cream, and you might be able to bake with it, or at least glaze a baked item with it. Brush it on as the baked item browns. Let the glaze get some color.

I'm fortunate that my partner lives about a mile from a Penzey's store. We spend far too much time in there enjoying the smell, and far too much money buying super-wonderful spices that we don't use up fast enough so we have to buy more when the stuff we have goes flat.
