Eat this Shit

[Shadow Mod]

In here we post dishes people need to try at least once in their life. It doesn't have to be hoity-toity French food either (even though I'm about to post some), there are some great Southern foods I have yet to try, convince me =o.

This is Daube (de Boeuf), aka Stewed Beef. It is delicious. Try this shit.

[Shadow Mod]

I've cooked Daube several times.  Richard Olney does the best recipe, but as with everything Olney does, it's technical.

You cook it? That's awesome. Olney has the best recipe? Time to look that up.

I just came across a .txt file for recipes to duplicate famous restaurant/brand recipes. Not too many I'd do but it does have the Soup Nazi's seafood bisque recipe

My balls are blue waiting to try it out.

I remember reading about it on reddit the other day, is it worth having a look at?

[Dickie Dee]

Don't have the link (I was at work and just copypasted it and sent to my personal email), but here's the recipe:

Soup Nazi's Seafood Bisque

 

 

                   2 cups dry white wine

                        1 bay leaf

                        1 onion, roughly chopped

                        1 clove garlic

                        2 ribs celery

                        1 lobster, 1 1/2 to 2 pounds

           12 medium-size shrimps, in shell

                       24 mussels, well scrubbed

                       12 sea scallops

                   4 cups heavy cream

                    1 cup milk

               1 teaspoon dried thyme

             1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley

             1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary

                    1 cup fresh spinach, well rinsed and chopped

                  1/2 cup grated carrot

           salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

             1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

 

 

   1. Combine the white wine, bay leaf, onion, garlic and celery in a large

      stock pot over medium heat. Boil. Add the lobster, cover the pot

      and steam for 10 minutes. Remove the lobster, set aside and cool.

 

   2. Add the shrimps to the boiling broth, cover the pot and steam for

      5 minutes. Remove the shrimps with tongs, set aside and cool.

 

   3. Add the mussels, cover the pot and steam until they open,

      about 5 minutes. Remove the mussels with the tongs,

      extract the meat and discard the shells.

 

   4. Add 2 cups of water to the liquid in the pot, bring to a boil and

      add the scallops. Cover the pot, and steam for 3 minutes.

      Remove the scallops with the tongs.

 

   5. Extract the lobster meat, reserving the shells. Peel and devein the

      shrimps, reserving the shells. Chop the meat into bite-size pieces,

      cover and set aside.

 

   6. Return the lobster and shrimp shells to the broth and add 2 more

      cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to simmer for

      30 minutes. Strain the broth and return it to the pot. Discard shells.

 

   7. Bring the broth to a simmer over low heat. Add the cream, milk and

      herbs and simmer until mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.

      Add the seafood and simmer for 2 minutes. Stir in the spinach and

      carrots and simmer another 2 minutes to just wilt the spinach.

      Season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Serve hot.

 

      Yield: 6 Servings

Taco Bell Crispitos
 

 

                   1/8 C. Cinnamon

                   1/2 C. Sugar

                   10 Flour Tortillas

 

                   Oil to fry with

 

 

  Mix together cinnamon and sugar very well. In a dutch oven, or

  large skillet heat the oil to 350 degrees. If you do not have a

  thermometer, you can set it on medium high, but be carefull to watch

  that it doesn't get too hot and begin to smoke. Quarter the tortillas

  and deep fry 2-4 at a time. Allow them to cook on one side for about

  30 seconds or unitl golden brown, turn over, and repeat. When

  both sides are brown take out, and place on paper towels to drain.

  While the tortillas are draining liberally sprinkle with cinnamon

  and sugar mixture. These are really great with honey.

 

Taco Bell Enchirito
 

 

                            1 pound Ground beef

                       1/4 teaspoon Salt

                         1 teaspoon Chili powder

                              1 can Sliced black olives (2 oz.)

                          1 package Flour tortillas (10 or 12")

 

 Slowly brown the ground beef in a skillet using a wooden spoon or spatula

 to separate the beef into pea-sized pieces. Add the salt, chili powder, and

 minced onion. With a mixer, or potato masher, beat the refried beans until

 smooth. Heat beans in small saucepan or in microwave. Warm tortillas all at

 once in a covered container, or wrapped in moist towel in microwave. Set on

 high for 40 sec. or warm individually in skillet for 2-3 min. per side.

 Spoon 3 tbs. of beef into the center of each tortilla. Sprinkle on 1/2

 tsp. diced fresh onion. Add 1/3 cup refried beans. Fold sides of each

 tortilla over the beans. Place the tortilla onto a plate. Spoon

 3 tbs. enchilada sauce over top of the tortilla. Sprinkle on 1/4 cup

 shredded cheese, and top with 3 olive slices.

 

Taco Bell Green Sauce
 

 

                         1 lb. fresh tomatillos

                       3 large jalapeno peppers, seeded

                             1 medium onion, chopped

                             2 cloves garlic

                             6 sprigs of cilantro, stems removed

                             2 cups chicken broth

                          1 T. vegetable oil

 

   Husk tomatillos and cut in half. Stem and half peppers. Boil tomatillos

   and peppers in chicken broth for 10 minutes. Strain, reserving broth.

   Combine tomatillos, peppers and remaining ingredients, except for the

   oil, in a blender and mix until almost smooth. Heat oil in frying pan

   until very hot. Add the tomatillo mixture and cook for 4-5 minutes,

   stirring constantly until dark and thick. Add reserved broth to mixture

   and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook until thickened,

   about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

 

Taco Bell Hot Sauce
 

 

                      6 oz Can Tomato Paste

                         3 cup Water

                        2 tsp. Cayenne pepper
                   1 1/2 Tbls. Chili powder

                    2 1/2 tsp. Salt

                        2 tsp. Cornstarch

                        2 tsp. Distilled white vinegar

                       1 Tbls. Minced dried onion

                       2 Tbls. Canned jalapeno slices

 

 

  1. Combine the tomato paste with the water in a saucepan over medium heat.

     Stir until smooth.

  2. Add the cayenne pepper, chili powder, salt, cornstarch, vinegar,

     and dried onion and stir.

  3. Chop the jalapeno slices very fine. You can use a food processor,

     but don't puree.

  4. Heat the mixture to boiling. Continue to stir about 3 minutes

     and remove from the heat.

  5. Let the sauce stand until cool, and then put

     in a tightly sealed container and refrigerate.

 

     This will last for 1 to 2 months. Makes 3 1/2 Cups.

Some are probably worth trying, but like why the fuck would I want to make my own H1 sauce?

The soup nazi recipes on the internets are ancient.  I found it and many other recipes in a .rar about five years ago.

I made stuff like Arby's Sauce and Red Lobster's cheddar biscuits from those files.

They weren't bad.  The homemade Arby's sauce was very close to the real thing.

mongolian beef, mothrfuckers.

good mongolian beef should not taste like steak or have a stringy/fatty texture, you almost shouldn't be tasting beef at all, the beef should be more like a conduit for the sauce

best mongolian beef on earth that i have found is at Jing Chuan in Toledo Ohio

Not a fan of beef stew/roast, well my mom's beef stew/roast. It just doesn't taste like anything to me.

BUT whenever we go camping we add pancake mix to it to create this awesome camper's stew that rocks

[chronovore]

bacon and peanut butter sandwich

I must try this...

My cousin from NZ recently told me about bacon-and-banana pancakes. I am straight up going to destroy that, guaranteed.

[drew]

waffles > pancakes

hell i won't even eat a pancake

[Momo]

Samosas. Not sure if it's Indian or Malay but if you like Taco Hell you'd love this.

[Human Snorenado]

Samosas rock.

Indian food

[etiolate]

I'm beating CG to the punch.

Not all of this I HAVE PERSONALLY EATEN but have seen others(CG) eaten.

So let's start off with something I'd never fucking eat and was almost tricked into eating. (Much like the raw ethiopian beef!)


Lamb brain cooked with butter, onions, tomatoes and spices

Indian/Pakistani dish. You can't tell it's brains by looking at it. That's the sneaky part.



Korean blood sausage. With what looks like a bit of tripe. I'm not a tripe fan, but I generally like blood sausage. This one was okay. Best blood sausage I had was in a gumbo at a place in Sacramento. They no longer serve that version anymore though.



Korean tofu soup. Spicy, yummy.



African Oxtail Soup - yummy spices and I love the beans



Ghanaian Corned Beef Stew (spicy)

Canned corned beef, habanero peppers, bell peppers, onion garlic, tomato and egg

This is a great stew and a way to use up your leftover corned beef in something different.



law mai gai - sticky rice in lotus leaf

One of my fave, warm and earthy dim sum eats. Great with tea.



Fried Brussel Sprouts - this is the only way to have brussel sprouts. Fry them with garlic and butter. Make a quick dip for it. Nommm



Borscht - Skinning the beets to make this is a bit messy but kind of fun. I love a good hot borscht with some sour cream and bacon bits on top.



This is some sort of sweet n spicy korean squid dish. I'm not sure the exact name, but its my fav korean dish.



A poke.




These are the sauteed greens at The Red Room in Santa Cruz. This is my favorite appertizer of ALL TIME. I have yet to fully figure out how they make this, but my best attempt so far is truffle oil and olive oil, lemon juice, white wine, roasted galric and a combo of chards and leafy greens.

They also have great drinks there.



"Death in the Afternoon" - Absinthe topped with champagne.

[Momo]

Oxtail soup aint too bad

[Shadow Mod]

Etiolate throwing down some damn good lookin' food. I spy a challenger.

[CrystalGemini]

Almond stuffed bacon wrapped dates. Don't have a picture but GOD DAMN

Agreed.  I'm usually not a huge fan of the "mix sweets with bacon" fad but this one is really good!  The one in this picture doesn't have almonds but still delicious:


Fish eggs.  All of them. (At this point I'm going to stop using some of my own pictures - too many pictures to sort through...)




Thousand Year Egg - loved this since I was a kid




Chicken Feet - great snacking food.  I can spend hours and hours just munching on these


Cold cuts, cured meats and cheeses of all kinds!  OMG THEY OWN ME.
Prosciutto

Bresaola

Summer sausage, coppa, smoked gouda, brie, cheddar...etc

Mozzarella and burrata




Pao de Queijo - I don't usually like bread either!  Totally eat like six of these in one sitting.


Frog (eat it enough and you can tell it doesn't taste like chicken)


Chitlins


Duck tongue - seriously great snacking


Cow tongue - already posted in the other thread but SERIOUSLY underrated


Cow stomach - another childhood favorite


Bitter melon - you gotta love bitter foods to like this



Bone Marrow - beef and pork are both good
Roast beef bone marrow with basil and capers

Pork bone marrow soup


Rabbit - they reproduce like crazy, you're doing this world good by eating them.  Plus they're very tasty.
Stewed


Roasted with dijion sauce


The below section is dedicated to PORK BELLY.  It still amazes me that so many people don't know anything about pork belly outside of bacon.  Don't get me wrong.  Bacon is delicious.  But good god are you missing out!  Sometimes I'll even mention "pork belly" and people are like "EW", then I'm like "bacon is made from pork belly" and they're like "WHA...?"

Porchetta - Traditionally made with a whole pig.  I just used the pork belly.  Great stuff.

Actually it's pig ears and liver. Tripe looks like this:

Which you should also try!

OH IT IS.  It's one of those dishes that always tastes better homemade.

There's a place near my house that does lamb dosas... one of my favorite things of all time.

It's threads like these that remind me of how uncultured this area is that I live in.

I had Ethiopian for the first time ever during my two months in the USA. It was very yummy. "Sourdough crepes" -- who'da thunk it?

I had Ethiopian for the first time ever during my two months in the USA. It was very yummy. "Sourdough crepes" -- who'da thunk it?

My experience with Ethiopian was not as good. I enjoyed their potato and lentil dishes, but I was burping up and tasting the food for like two weeks after. Just the thought of some of the dishes makes me gag a little.

[CrystalGemini]

I had Ethiopian for the first time ever during my two months in the USA. It was very yummy. "Sourdough crepes" -- who'da thunk it?

It was fun to eat at first.  Kind of reminded me of warm edible hand towels but better tasting.  Still couldn't stand the bread-iness after a few bites though.   

Next time I'm going to pass on the injera and ask them to leave a spoon or something.

[chronovore]

To be honest, when my friend ordered another round of the injera. I was like, "ok, ok, I'm... this is enough sour pancake thingie for me, already!"

[Mr. Gundam]

There's a whole bunch of ethnic slightly sketchy looking places near my house -- I gotta try some of em but my wife is like deathly afraid of food poisoning so if they didn't get a good health score (or they haven't been scored because it's just a sketchy taco truck) I have to go alone :'(

University Way, lovingly referred to as The Ave, has a string of sketchy local ethnic places. They are all quality places. Good tempura, pho, schwarma, dosas, bulgogi, etc. We often walk over there on Friday nights for dinner.

[Mr. Gundam]

Idk much about Seattle, but I do know there is (or was) and middle eastern place I like on first and cherry. It used to be a hookah bar too so I'd go there when visiting friends going to school up there.

There's a big hookah place on Roosevelt near the Trader Joes and Half Price Books. I've never been by it when it's open, but it's one gigantic room with tons of couches.

[Robo]

You just described every single hookah bar in the world.

[Mr. Gundam]

You just described every single hookah bar in the world.

Oh I know, it's just the only one near my house. Curious how much business they do right next to the University of Washington.

[Spurgeon]

I hate Korean soondae. That crap is far inferior to cajun boudin.

[CrystalGemini]

I hate Korean soondae. That crap is far inferior to cajun boudin.

Yeah I wasn't a huge fan of the Korean blood sausage.  It had a lot more rice than I imagined it would have.    I like blood but it seems a lot of recipes with blood uses rice or some other filler to add volume.

Which reminds me...blood is really good too:

[Verdigris Murder]

That looks like Russian dog food.
