axelay , (edited ) in [Discussion] [Question] Red Beans and Rice

We make Alton Brown’s recipe frequently at my house.

We tend to skip on the 3-day pickled pork journey in favor of a much easier kielbasa or andouille sausage. You might be able to try vegetarian sausages, but I don’t know how well they’ll hold up to the 2 hour cook time.

We use a ghost pepper hot sauce for a nice kick, but halve the amount to a 1/2 teaspoon to keep things reasonable.

It’s spicy, savory, and “earthy” with the green peppers, celery, and bay leaves.

The rice recipe he gives is my go to for rice in general, too. I really like fluffy, non-sticky result of using basmati for it.

HelixDab2 , in [Discussion] [Question] Red Beans and Rice

I do lack an instant pot

An instant pot isn’t useful here. If you cook it in an instant pot, the liquid used to cook the beans won’t thicken up at all. It’s one of those things where the liquid both has to reduce, and the starches etc. in the beans have to be extracted to thicken the remaining liquid. This just takes time. Same with extracting some of the flavors from the sausages, etc.

My personal opinion is to roughly quadruple the amount of the spices/herbs used (except the onion); I find truly authentic recipes to have a little less punch than I prefer.

I’m finding it hard to even imagine what this might taste like. My best guess would be “sickly sweet.” The acid, mozz, fruit, and fishiness


scytale OP ,

It tastes just like sushi because it’s the same exact ingredients you would put in a regular roll. Obviously the cheese is extra, but you’ll find it (or cream cheese) in the more elaborate sushi rolls restaurants offer. A basic California maki for example can have cucumber and mango in it.

You’re serious, aren’t you?

scytale OP ,

The nice thing about this dish is you can literally use any combination of ingredients you want, just like you have tons of different rolls you can choose from at a sushi restaurant.

ISOmorph ,

I think the reaction comes from the baking part, not so much the ingredients. Imagine someone saying beef tartar wedged between two balls of uncooked dough tastes like a hamburger. You’d probably be sceptical too.

Statlerwaldorf ,

Yeah, the thought of hot sushi or hot mayonnaise is a bit revolting.

scytale OP , (edited )

Oh man, wait till you get a taste of Asian Hot Shrimp Salad. It was the first dish with hot/warm mayo I ever tasted, and it’s amazing! Also, japanese mayo is not as sour and tangy as regular mayo, so it works with heat well. Check out takoyaki and okonomiyaki as well, which are both hot dishes with mayo.

scytale OP ,

Fair, but the baking part is really more like heating a bunch of already cooked ingredients. So there’s not much of a change with the elements of the ingredients and the heat from the oven just fuses them into an integrated dish that you can pick up with chopsticks. The only thing that drastically changes is the mozarella cheese that melts. Otherwise, the entire dish stays as is and can technically be eaten even without baking.

So the analogy would instead be like assembling a bread bun, cooked beef patty, some veggies, and heating it in the oven for a couple of minutes. It’s already a burger before putting it into the oven, and it’s the same burger, just toastier and maybe crispier, afterwards.

So big okonomoyaki then? I mean it does look like it would taste good.

cloudless , in [RECIPE] Sushi Bake

It would sound much better if you change it’s name to “layered rice bake” instead of using the “sushi” name.

It just doesn’t feel quite right to call it sushi. Sushi rice is just short grain rice anyway.

That said, I really want to try it.

scytale OP ,

Well I didn’t exactly coin the term, that’s what it’s called by everyone who makes it.

HappycamperNZ ,

This was my thinking - this sounds and looks soo wrong but I’d demolish some.

Listen.

I’m proud of you. I’m sure it’s delicious. I have no doubt that you worked really hard on this, and the results were rewarding. I hope you enjoy the fruits of your labor. I even upvoted you.

My only suggestion is you might want to keep this one to yourself, and maybe really close friends and family. The world just won’t understand.

It has a threatening aura.

just_another_person ,

I might go so far to say the pictures should be able to do it more justice if you’re putting this out in the world. It does not look like it would pass muster for mass appeal as shown.aybe some bisection shots, or dressed up or something.

scytale OP ,

That’s why I didn’t post it in !foodporn. I didn’t exactly plan to post the pictures at the time I made it so didn’t really make it “pretty”. I was also planning to add a bisection photo but realized all the pictures I took had the layers messed up when I cut the piece out, so not worth posting.

soupspoon , in [RECIPE] Sushi Bake

Ooh this reminds me of something I’ve had at a Chinese buffet with crab or surimi, cheese and I think celery or something in it. It didn’t have any rice involved but I’ll try it out, thanks for the info. I was also curious what a sushi bake would be, and it looks and sounds good!

TheQuietCroc , in [RECIPE] Sushi Bake

This is a fucking hate crime

Yokozuna , in [RECIPE] Sushi Bake

This looks great, good job on it! Hope it tastes as good as it looks.

scytale OP ,

Thanks! I would even say it tastes better than it looks, because I don’t really care about aesthetics much when preparing food. lol

BearOfaTime , in Ice cream bread

So bread made with flour, milk, cream, sugar (if traditional ice cream).

Add eggs if it’s a custard-based (Philly style) ice cream.

Seems like getting there the long way, and wasting perfectly good ice cream (plus the time, effort and energy to make it).

TheGiantKorean OP ,
@TheGiantKorean@lemmy.world avatar

The idea is to use store bought ice cream. Literally you’re just throwing the ice cream and flour together and baking it, which doesn’t take long at all.

BearOfaTime ,

Still takes time, energy to make ice cream, then store it along the way.

Why not just use milk, flour, eggs, sugar? And then you control the proportions.

Store bought ice cream, you have no idea the proportions, then there’s over-run (how much air is trapped in the ice cream) making volume different, and unless you get a “natural” ice cream, there are thickeners like careegenan. Who knows how that will affect a bake.

This is a bad solution in search of a non-existent problem, with wildly unpredictable results. Everything in this recipe can be found in dry (powdered) or canned form, which would produce far more consistent and better results.

I keep both a powdered and canned milk, either which I could serve to someone and they’d have no idea. Egg crystals too.

Baking is already a very picky chemistry problem, adding in crazy variables like will just result in poor results.

Who’s fries?

Double word error joke aside, how was it? That’s what really matters.

VanHalbgott OP ,

Delicious, skipper!

Nice :)

Who’s fries?

I don’t know who is fries, nor am I sure about who they belong to.

I’m still wondering what the heck their fries did where OP lives


southsamurai ,
@southsamurai@sh.itjust.works avatar

You never met fries? He’s a bit salty, but he goes great with anything.

KillerTofu , in Store-bought fish and chips with homemade tartar sauce

Did you cook it?

VanHalbgott OP ,

Aye, skipper!

CrayonRosary ,

It does not look cooked in the picture. I’ve never seen frozen fish filets look like this after cooking. They should be glossy and slightly browned.

VanHalbgott OP ,

Agreed.
