So. I tend to not use store bought sauces, can’t give advice on that.
But, if you haven’t considered it, you can reduce your overall work load by making sauces in bulk, and then freezing them. I got myself some giant icecube-molds to freeze into 1/2 cup blocks, and then transfer them to sealed vacuum bags.
Simply thaw and reheat for use. This also works quite well for stocks, or anything that takes hours of simmering.
muts are the best-est. We had a half-goldie-half-stray that was absolutely the best dog ever.
Though, to be honest, I imagine ‘best dog ever’ really comes down to proximity. The closer the dog is to you- figuratively and literally- the better the dog. details.
Like seriously. Because a guy one time pulled out because he was an asshole and wanted the inheritance that would otherwise go to his “nephew”… which would have (and did) cause his brother’s widow go into destitution, so god smote him.
Also… side note… that’s the kind of world they view as ideal.
I tend to go for a NY strip 9/10 times when I’m buying steaks, unless there’s some good deal on something else. Or I’ll go to Costco and get a big roast and cut steaks out of it. I’m not super picky these days because I always sous vide and torch my steaks and they come out so nice no matter what the cut. Salt and pepper...
yes, on the tenting. another option is to put it in a cold oven. if the oven has a bread proof setting, that can help to slow the cooling down a bit too, without actually cooking it. (proofing is usually done at 70-80f, just a bit warmer than room temp. Warming is usually quite a bit more and will continue cooking more…)
NY strip, dry brined (kosher salt, fresh cracked pepper, and some baking soda, left at room temperature until the salt has been fully absorbed into the steak.)
as for cooking, it depends on weather and mood- nice enough to grill outside? wood fired grill, with a coating of marinade applied just before it goes on (not more than a few minutes.)- Olive oil, apple vinegar, garlic, more pepper. maybe some lime or lemon juice. seared to a medium-rare. the oil helps the sear lock in juices, the hint of vinegar adds an acidic kick.
Shit weather? it’s pan fried in cast iron, generous amounts of butter (and enough neutral oil to keep it from burning about 1/3 oil 2/3’s butter), with a crushed clove of garlic and a sprig of time in the pan. again, seared to that perfect medium rare. (though… if you have one of those in the family, this method also allows you to slow it down to produce a passable well done. Just saying.)
of course the second most important part: let it REST. (10-15 minutes, covered in tinfoil.)
The pun is “acoustics”- which is a branch of physics that deal with sound (and also the term for acoustic qualities of a particular enviroment; which is something that is very carefully controlled on a stage)
My wife and I rarely cook turkey for Thanksgiving. This year we’re coming Cornish hens. In previous years we’ve cooked duck, leg of lamb, and rib roast. It’s not that we don’t like turkey, but there are lots of other things that I think I’d prefer eating....
Pop culture didn’t appropriate it. Alan Turing and John McCarthy and the others at the Dartmouth Comference were inspired in part by works like Wisard of Oz and Metropolis and R.U.R.
While the term was coined in a paper for that seminal conference by McCarthy…. The concept of thinking machines had already been firmly established.
[Discussion] What is/are your favorite commercial sauces?
Any kind: Tomato, Alfredo, peanut. Anything you could put on pasta, rice, or other carbs. Just want to know which brands are good....
