Last week's radio recipe set is completely vegan: fermented grape jelly, pine nut custard and cultured almond milk (three recipes).

A couple of fun snacks:
Soft Funfetti Sugar Cookies - "Funfetti" is where you put the sprinkles into the dough before mixing and baking

Montreal steak spice - the wonder of the ages. Okay, the wonder of the last seven decades.
Unless you work at Schwartz's, you're not going to know what's in the original Montreal steak spice... but here's one reporter's try at duplicating it: 'Tis the seasoning: What's behind Montreal steak spice, flavouring food for more than 70 years?
And this is how you use it:

Hm. I think I actually have a jar of a commercial "Montreal" spice in my spice cabinet that I've never used. I should pull it out and try it on the next steak I grill.

I managed to google chicken wing sauce, take the first result in google for 'chicken wing sauce' and had it all eaten before I got any.
A bottle of Franks hot sauce, a fifth of a kilo of butter, 2 tablespoons of vinegar, worcester sauce, garlic powder and that dangerous smelling redshit in the spice cabinet. Stick it on some wings, let 'em soak for a bit tyhen stick them on a BBQ until they're done and then leave the rest as dipping and it's fucking golden.
The sauce was great and the wings turned out well enough that they got nommed bofre I got any. But I did get to put the sauce on a hot dog.

Last week's radio recipe is sakura water raindrop cake.
(I'll have to at least mention these somewhere in There's Nothing Better...)

That looks like some kind of bizarre alien. Are you sure it's meant to be stuffed into your face and eaten, rather than eating your face?
RE: Any "like to cook" foodies here? - robkelk - 07-28-2019
Yes, quite sure. Think "fancy Jello".
RE: Any "like to cook" foodies here? - classicdrogn - 07-28-2019
Heh, ooo-kay... At least now you have someone's reaction to use when it's introduced in the story, I guess?

Your guide to buying, brewing and enjoying specialty coffee — even if you've yet to enjoy your first sip
Quote:Specialty coffee importers buy higher-quality beans, which, lucky for us, means better tasting coffee. These beans cost more, as the price more properly supports the production process, the coffee farm co-ops, the farmers and their families, essential to the production of coffee.
Quote:Geoff Woodley of IKAWA Coffee says "a scale, French press and burr grinder are all you need to start out." Woodley stressed the importance of the grinder, adding, "you can spend $150 on a burr grinder and $20 on a brewer, and get a better cup of coffee than if you were to spend $150 on a brewer and $20 on a grinder."

I seem to recall finding something similar here in Los Angeles, but I believe we've used it all up?
At the moment, my 'go to's in that department are actually spice mixes I bought in Jamaica on last years cruise
RE: Any "like to cook" foodies here? - Bob Schroeck - 08-02-2019
Oh, and it turns out the jar was "Montreal Chicken Spice". I haven't had the time to compare its ingredients to what's in the article to see if there's any functional difference, but I suspect there is. I'm betting there's sage and a couple other "poultry-only" things in it that wouldn't work on a steak.
I have to say that after having read that article I have had a powerful hankering to grill a steak with Montreal seasoning, and finding out I had the wrong thing was a bit of a disappointment. The next time I'm at a place with a specialty spice store -- Schooner's Wharf in Beach Haven, or Peddler's Village in Lahaska, PA to think of two -- I'll pick up some proper Montreal Steak Seasoning. Unless someone can vouch for stuff I might find in my local grocery.

11 Canadian books about food to check out this summer
Books about food, fiction that features food, and cookbooks. (One of the cookbooks is by a chef who has a couple of recipe links in this thread. I've eaten in Joe Thottungal's restaurant many times. So if you only buy one of these books, buy that one, okay?)

Last week's radio recipe is a pimento cheese sandwich. Maybe not exactly what they serve at the Masters, but close enough.
For some heat, replace the pimentos with pickled jalapenos.

Last week's radio recipe is doughnuts
Yeast doughnuts, not the lighter cake style.
Be sure to listen to the segment - it has some tips that aren't in the written article.
These folks want to sell their homemade jams, sauces, and spreads... but I'm sure equivalents to most of their products are available wherever you live. Or, if you happen to be visiting Algonquin Park, you can get their products.

Last week's radio recipe is Trindadian-style roti. The base recipe is vegetarian, but the food truck that the chef owns serves this with curried chicken (EDIT: or jerk chicken, or jerk goat) and potatoes in the filling.

Umm, Rob? I've always found Yeast donuts to be lighter than any Cake styles?

Likewise, but that's what the chef said... Go figure.

Last week's radio recipe is sweet potato croquettes.
Contains cinnamon and cloves - go easy on the cloves!
Power waffles!
The protein comes from white beans... which apparently don't add a flavour to the recipe. (I haven't tried this one yet.)

Better archive the recipes on this site if you want them - the site owner is having trouble staying afloat.

Last week's radio recipe is sarma: Serbian-style cabbage rolls with sauerkraut leaves. Contains carrot, onion, garlic, paprika, and bacon.
The cooking time is six hours in a slow cooker, or three hours on the stovetop.

Last week's radio recipe is a "walking taco".
My first thought on seeing this was "they needed a recipe for that?"
