What's for dinner at your place tonight?

[Northwestcoug]

Tired of thinking about how shitty everything is, much less articulating why my worldview is right ...

Anyways, I've followed Notorious Foodie on instagram for awhile. It's food porn. I've made a handful of his recipes. His lasagna recipe is amazing. I've made it twice. Bechamel over ricotta cheese forever.

Not sure if you can access his substack recipes without subscribing, but if you have an afternoon for food prep this is amazing lasagna. He posts his recipes on his instagram channel, but saves the more detailed steps for his substack. Not sure how to use the INSTAGRAM tags for his account, but just look up Notorious Foodie.

My other favorites are pasta alla zozzona and beef bourguignon.

Is that the guy who never looks at the camera because he has a really appealing side-profile but looks like a caricature from head on? He has mastered the ASMR recipe video, but I get annoyed with how he spins all his shallots and how he cuts raw meat (including chicken) on his wood cutting board and then just sprays it down (presumably with something antibacterial, but how antibacterial can it be if it's foodsafe and has no residual flavor?)

The one and same. I think the same thing when he wipes that cutting board down.

I've tried a couple of less than great recipes of his. I've really wanted to get carbonara right. His is better than other recipes I've tried, just not enough for me to try it again. And his carnitas tacos had so much potential (simmered in lard for 2 hours!), but there was a weird sweet lingering taste afterwards.

Best way to clean a wooden cutting board after using it to cut raw meat(s)?

Pretty sure I never have.

I'm bored with my standard Sunday dinners. What is your favorite thing to cook?

[BigFatMeanie]

We tend to have stew or a pot roast quite a bit on sundays because the Mrs just puts them in the crock pot in the morning and it’s easy for her, but I am getting bored with those. She also puts Navajo tacos and chicken tikka masala into the rotation pretty frequently. The Mrs does make a pretty decent tikka masala with homemade naan; although the naan is not totally authentic because we don’t have a tandoor. South Jordan is the Indian capital of Utah and all the right spices are readily available for a good tikka masala.

We used to do Sunday roast beef in the crock pot pretty frequently. I'd put down a bed of carrots and then the rubbed roast and then seasoned red or golden potatoes.

After getting the smoker, I would do tri-tip roast pretty often. Beef prices seem like they've been super high since at least Covid, so it's beena while since I got any tri-tip.

Nowadays, it's much more random and is often just leftovers from prior meals.

Cowboy curry chicken thighs and veg. All in one pot. Works best in a cast iron or enameled Dutch oven.

I like to make gumbo.

Hmm, this goes against what I’ve heard in that wooden cutting boards are better than plastic when it comes to anti-bacterial properties.

If you’re comparing them both unwashed or hand washed, yes. But a hand-washed wood board isn’t better than a dishwasher-washed plastic board when it comes to bacteria.

But think of the micro plastics!

That’s probably true.
