I have veg that I want to chop up and needs to be kept as fresh as possible, best way to do this is to freeze it, but plastic carrier bags are all I have as options to try to seal it. submitted by /u/Crystal_1501 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I love the taste of Mexican sour cream. And I don't mean the table crema stuff that is much thinner. I mean the stuff that is just as thick as regular sour cream. The problem for me is that the dairy source, and thus quality, is questionable. But I can get a regular sour cream that is organic and from 100% grass fed cows. So is there anything I could add to regular sour cream to give it the more tangy flavor of the Mexican version? submitted by /u/Any-Chef-2979 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I baked my ginger slices but they turned brownish. Is this normal? Most pics I see of dried ginger (eg chips or slices), they’re light yellow. submitted by /u/Suspicious-Smoke3031 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi, today u was making my morning coffee and decided to pour the milk first (Almond milk). I then did that but it came out like this, of course I checked the expiration date and it said that it would expire on June 25 so I didn't understand. Obviously I threw it but I really wonder why it came out that color and not lumpy like any other spoiled liquid ¿Anyone know the science behind it? Here's a picture of the milk submitted by /u/Happpine5 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I’m making my mother dinner tomorrow for her birthday and one of her favorite foods is oyster rockefeller. I want to make her a meal but I’m kind of stumped on what to serve with it. I’m going to cook asparagus with it but I was thinking one more side. I know it’s normally served by itself but I don’t eat seafood at all so I’m kind of in the dark about seafood meals. What’s a good third side? Should I just keep it simple with the oyster and asparagus? Or is it filling with just the oysters? submitted by /u/KenYouu_Not [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I have two questions regarding this no-knead focaccia recipe. Can I do this recipe on a quarter sheet instead of a cast iron to make a thinner loaf for sandwiches? If I want to double the recipe, do I need to use 2 separate bowls for the first rising or can I do one large bowl and split the dough before proofing? submitted by /u/iguessimtheITguynow [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I camed across a recipe that I found intriguing yesterday. I've been curious to try a deep fried chicken after sous vide first so the recipe that the chef is doing in the actual video linked below He starts with a wet brine, 2.5 hour sous vide, then a 24 hour butter milk bath before dredging and frying (I was planning to add some other tidbits like mixing in egg whites and vodka to the batter and adding 2:1 flour to starch) Just not sure about the effects of the buttermilk bath after it's already been cooked sous vide? Has anyone either tried this or have thoughts on how it would work? Here i ..read more

I have a fresh garlic plant I picked up at the market. Obviously I can eat the bulbs and the scape, but (triming off the yellow and more fibrous) can the stalk be prepared, or is it trash? I figured it might be similar to preparing leek, but can't find any quick answers. submitted by /u/cdmurray88 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Many Middle Eastern and Indian recipes call for a marinade made with yoghurt. However, when I fry them, the marinade burns and leaves a burnt residue. What's the trick here? submitted by /u/Fun-Instruction4432 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
