"I am a baker and the son of a baker," he says. "I know very well that bread, even during wartime, must always be made. Because for the people, it's a necessity. If other jobs close, it's not serious. But bread is essential. Bread is something that everyone lives with, the rich, the poor — everyone eats bread. It's a noble profession, and I'm really very proud to be a baker."

On the subject of reheating pasta: "Late to the party – but I worked in a restaurant back in the day. Instead of cooking spaghetti from scratch each time there was an order, they cooked a gigantic pot’s worth in the morning (al dente). Then, they put it (plain, no sauce) in covered containers filled with cold water and stored it in the refrigerator until needed. After that, it was a simple matter to just heat it up as needed in the pan with the sauce, and much faster.

"I used this trick with my ex all the time. He loved spaghetti; I don’t particularly care for it. So I’d make a big batch as described above and when he wanted it, he just pulled some out, added the sauce, heated it up and was happy." http://www.askamanager.or... - bentley - -

"I feel like this is a part of the problem with a lot of these companies, and just generally my opinion about a lot of things that go on in California especially—there’s a lot of great raw ingredients but then people try to get over the hump of history and over the hump of actually doing stuff. You can’t just have great wheat and be like, /We’re going to make 00 flour, we bought Caputo, we analyzed it, and now this is our 00 and it’s just the same./ And it’s like, /Dude, it doesn’t even work anything like Caputo, and Caputo is not even as good as it used to be./" - Andrew C from Bookmarklet - -

"It’s the same with mozzarella cheese: there’s amazing milk in California—better than any milk in Italy—but nobody in California knows how to make mozzarella. That guy over there in Italy making cheese, he was born in the place making cheese, his dad made the cheese, his grandfather made the cheese, his father made the cheese, his brain only thinks of cheese, he doesn’t even have an option but to make cheese." - Andrew C - -

"I asked Mr. Gagliardi why he thinks there is such demand for boneless meat. "Because, let's face it," he started, "Americans are lazy eaters. They don't like to eat fish with bones. They don't like to eat anything with bones." Which is all well and good in Gagliardi's eyes, unless you're false advertising." - Andrew C from Bookmarklet - -

It's not the bones that bother me, it's the veins/tendons next to the bone :/ That said, boneless skinless thigh meat makes me gag. - Meg VMeg - -

How a trucker lost 65 pounds by cooking vegan meals on the road http://www.today.com/food... “With such incredible results, Anderson decided to start a blog in hopes of creating a community of support and inspiration for others trying to do the same.” Plant-Fueled Trucker Facebook page and Instagram account. https://scontent-ord1-1.c...

“The biggest game changer was that he began cooking his own meals. He put himself on a restrictive diet, cutting out all meat, fish and dairy, and adding nutritious fruits and vegetables like avocados, potatoes and blueberries to create a well balanced diet. […] It takes careful planning and a little bit of time on his day off. When he's not on the road, he preps his meals for the coming week. […] Anderson's meals aren't boring even with such a restricted diet and lack of kitchen space. Instead, Anderson uses the truck's electrical power to his advantage and carries along a pressure cooker, waffle maker, hot plate, toaster and Nutribullet. He makes dishes like vegetable stir-fry with peanut sauce, which has rice, cauliflower, broccoli, curry powder, dried parsley and pepper. His meals are also quick to make since time of the essence for him. For example, the stir-fry takes 12 minutes. […] Beyond the weight loss, Anderson's seen a transformation in his overall health. "I don't take no antidepressants, anymore. No blood, no medicine at all and it's all doctor approved," explained Anderson, who is also now exercising again.” - bentley - -

Last week I made a pretty good quick/cheater's chili with canned beans, chorizo, sofrito, etc etc etc, but that's not the point right now. The point is, today, when I was thinking about what to do with the last of it, I realized: I could make a chili burger! So I did that.

Six scientists spent 8 months in a Mars simulation dome, run by Hawai'i Space Exploration Analog and Simulation (HI-SEAS). http://www.cnn.com/2015/0... Tour of the dome: http://hi-seas.org/?p=354... Isolation, close quarters, yadda yadda. But back to the important stuff. What did they eat? http://hi-seas.org/wp-con...

1 decade ago - Comment - Hide - - [ 2 ] -

In 2013, HI-SEAS held a recipe contest for their 4-month mission. http://hi-seas.org/?p=219 "I asked our audience to submit recipes we could make during our mission that used shelf-stable ingredients from our pantry list http://hi-seas.org/?p=226 . The response was overwhelming. We received a large number of submissions and decided to make 25 of them, five in each of the following categories: breakfast, main meal, soup or stew, side dish, and desserts." - bentley - -

This enormous, $8 fried chicken sandwich could launch a major fast-food brand http://www.businessinside... https://igcdn-photos-c-a....

"The sandwich that will have hipsters lined up around the block sounds like a riff on Chick-fil-A. Sustainably sourced chicken thighs are marinated in habañero purée, dipped in buttermilk, coated in spices, deep-fried, and tucked into a potato roll with pickles and butter. " -- using thighs instead of breasts makes Fuku way better already! - Andrew C - -

"What do you get when you combine German and Chinese foods? The meals at most of my family get-togethers, actually, thanks to my grandmothers--two women who are constantly cooking dishes from their respective cultures. Inspired by their cooking, I came up with this dish by combining pretzels with bao (steamed buns), then filling them with a blend of char siu and mustard-slathered roast pork. My whole family scarfed the buns down in approval." - Andrew C from Bookmarklet - -

The last three weeks I've deliberately taken time Sunday afternoon to make my lunches for the week. It makes things so much easier in the mornings. Also, it makes my bank account happier. :)

Do you have any good recipes for something that would make for a good "breakfast cake"? Like, cake that could be eaten soon after breakfast. Not coffee cake, though.

Smitten Kitchen has a cornmeal blueberry cake that could work. http://smittenkitchen.com... It has a streusel topping, but it isn't really a coffee cake. - Katy_S from iPhone - -

Any type of pound cake could make a good breakfast cake. Also, just about anything that makes a good muffin could probably easily be turned into a cake. - Friendfed Mr. Noodle - -
