I would love to try these! &as for the aforementioned sweetness.. I have come to enjoy the subtleties of siracha.. --(*I have come to squirting pea-sized dollops of the succulent sauce on my fingertip every time I open the fridge*)-- ...I've become a fan of the sweetness i get at the end of my tongue,a fan of the invigorating tingle caught with every whiff i take
I like the "cheater's pizza" idea! as for me -- today, i actually had minimal amounts leftover of those same veggies -- I roasted them in the oven to serve along with a butterflied chicken breast which I stuffed with parsley&lemon, drizzled w/olive oil, and seasoned w/salt and pepper. kind of mix and match, yes, but it was satisfying never the less!
well said my friend, well said I must also admit that I, just moments ago, ate a bowl of Quaker's "banana bread" microwave oatmeal-- which was prepared with 1&1/3 cups of water and later infused with 1/3cup of Starbucks Café Verona coffee. It was supremely delicious, albeit out of character.
They've changed, but I can still eat the Rice Krispies. What I cannot handle are all the hypersugary cereals that I once liked. Fruit Loops, Frosted Flakes, Trix, Cap'n'Crunch . . . Count Chocula. Gag. In absolute agreement here.. The "marshmallow" laden Lucky Charms that I once ate bags of are hardly edible anymore.
my son's favourite. I'm all for steel cut oats and the like --wonderful texture, etc-- but when Mr.Quakers brown sugary goodness is only 1&1/3 cup of water and a minute&thiry away, i occasionally cave...
I like this post! It provides a wonderful suggestion and explanation as to why/how it applies! I appreciate that they have brought their expertise to the table!-- pun intended
Ooooh! I will be keeping a close eye on this thread! I'm going to be headed up to Portland for school next fall, so I have been taking detailed notes of all things gastronomically related to the city
Awesomeness! I love the khymos blog, as well as khymos.org. It is such a wonderful resource! Not only is it filled with stellar info (I love the flavor pairing sector) but it provides loads of links to other helpful sites as well. Plus, Mr. Lersh actually took the time to respond to the email I sent in, which thoroughly impressed me!
amen to that. --the basic mix w/ some melted Parmesan on top-- brings me riiiight back to when I was little. my mom and I would throw two bags worth in the microwave, sprinkle some parmesan on top, and then plop on the couch to watch a kiddie show together *power rangers ftw!
Very pertinent question, I like the way you think my friend. I have no answers to these questions either. I'm tempted to try this method even with the extra effort just because the Alton Brown wants to see how it works; The heston in me wants to experiment; the Steingarten in me wants to taste test and compare Will the potatoes retain more nutrients? Will the skins prevent flavor loss? Will the starches that make up the potatoes rupture or remain intact? So many questions! If only Harold McGee were here.... hahaha
