  1. Against my better judgement the 28oz can of whole baby clams was like $5USD at my local restaurant depot. To be fair, they did not taste "unpleasant" But they tasted bland. I salvaged the dish with anchovies and added a few tsp of Minors clam base. I now know better then to use any canned clams that do not list "ocean" or "sea" clams for future reference.
  2. I usually buy either fresh clams or frozen clams and sea clam juice when i make linguine and clams. I bought a 28oz can of baby clams and the juice and the clams had literally no flavor at all. I am guessing they were farm raised or something, and le juice was just water and salt. Its good thing i had a tub of Minors Clam base, because it saved the dish. /rant
  3. This is what is available at my local Asian market ( US ) https://www.amazon.com/Knorr-Chicken-Broth-Mix-Pack/dp/B007V47UBU/ref=sr_1_11?crid=1G7B07W3D5Y9D&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.L7z7EEoufgWoLEQ7TRcPgzrNIt7gzIPEsmYSa2FmlBi3QzdT_iR4q-1zxcdETfzkn9A9pe46hCJUfGn5gbTlRss1cUU6nm7Eg9ZtQVYoWr5Kh1O1aFdjLQ06FP0Gen5muGLx54Vi3knUTead83fszO6Bvnn-_5NhMzGT0cWI3hE9Ed4NiRgEYcMykk13xqNnu1LeL5250oNBLrUij9VujlsAG-lrtQ1T625lZHWUostz-N4HED-SWp-jl9l1Pok62Ivsvpl2uDUFNEvxHmcrHMH7RJtesOD-lFlIBwqZJ_Q.zUcEMAZzRqvRBwHYbqWv8r5d0wEQU9b_hA1qFOjPdLg&dib_tag=se&keywords=knorr%2Bchicken%2Bbouillon%2Bpowder&qid=1725590918&s=grocery&sprefix=knorr%2Cgrocery%2C101&sr=1-11&th=1 What makes me question is at the end of the ingredient list it says Caramel color. That is a red flag, or in this case, yellow flag.
  4. I didn't want to make a thread about store bought chicken bullion so i figure this thread is close enough to ask. Has anyone ever bought the chinese version of Knorr chicken broth powder? I usually buy Lee Kum Kee. I don't know which is better, but i am curious if Knorr brand uses any coloring? I am trying to avoid the broth turning yellow. LKK chicken powder doesnt turn the broth yellow, but i want to try Knorr only if it doesn't aswell.
  5. Negative. Just your run of the mill CB point on sale for $1.77/lb. No need to drop the total time, 70 minutes in the Instant pot was perfect for pastrami on rye with spicy brown mustard.

    Coffee vinegar

    I add a nip or two of citric acid to my coffee. Gives it a slight tang.

    Beef Back Ribs

    Where's the beef? That recipe is all bone, no meat. Your basicly paying around $3/lb for bones with barely any meat on them.
  8. Unfortunately i cant find a website to buy them. Seems these are only imported from Italy. I came across two sites, one is out of stock, and the other i almost ordered from but the site seems like a scam with no shipping option. I tried to order from the Company but the order link doesn't work.
  9. Thats more like a homemade version with no pronouced round pea pod shape. Its driving me nuts because they obviously exist but i can't find them anywhere.
  10. Let me first say, i narrowed it down to "Capunti" But the homemade version looks nothing like the dried pasta version. Here is the shape.
  11. I use wooden utensils on my non stick pots/pans. I have yet to find a plastic utensil worth a damn. EDIT: except for my metal tongs with silicone coating. If you want to consider that "plastic"
  12. Thats actually a common dish that is served in US chinese Buffet's.
  13. Seems this dish would be better suited for sous vide.
  14. Now im hungry for some spare rib tips with black beans.
