I discovered something new, it's called Burrata and it's delicious. It looks like mozzarella, and it is the same on the outside, but it's filled with cream on the inside.
Here's the recipe I made (it's for 2 persons): Ravioli with tomato, eggplant and burrata Ingredients:

^^ nice to see people getting into cooking
i spatchcocked and roasted a chicken last night there was a lot of smoke and it burned my eyes :D (came out tasty though. but 450F was too high. i had to chop and recook) martha was asking for 500. wtf. https://www.marthastewart.com/922339...icken-potatoes go for 400. 350, even. easy does it. ps- i should have read the comments. another rawbird mentioned there. |
chile verde with homemade sauce, braised pork tenderloin, baby spinach salad with pine nuts and fresh local pears
|
Homemade (the meal, not the noodles), makeshift quasi-Chow Mein with garlic, garlic shrub, onion and an evenly spread helping of Yakitori and Black Bean paste as well as a pinch of lemongrass powder. Decided to go for broader, tagliatelle-sized taiwanese noodles for this endeavor.

-- my focaccia glued itself to the pan btw. the first time i made one that did not happen, but this was an aluminum pan which might have had something to do with the bad results. it also came out cakey. thinking the neapolitan flour is not suited to this altitude. i don't know. i'm not much of a baker. but it tastes okay. |
funny dinner last night. I made ajika sauce and used it with baked organic lentils with onions and garlic with smoked pork sausages from Otto's in PDX. Kind of worked most of the day on it, totally edible results, but really reminded me of beanies and weenies that my ma used to slop across the table on us after she came home from work. I can usually do a fail on a meal and it's shitty or inedible, but this was a fail like none I've done before.

https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/...ls-recipe.html i fear baking it all together might destroy the sausages and not get the lentils right alright. best wishes! failing is learning when done right. — i just ate some glorious popcorn. seasoned with: kalamata olive oil, nutritional yeast, diamond crystal kosher salt. the olive oil and the yeast interact incredibly well somehow. the kosher salt pulverizes and sticks to the popcorn instead of falling to the bottom on the bowl. win! also just made some chicken liver paté (sheeekkenn, jacques pépin would say) now about to: bake granola for the week bake some bread for tomorrow’s sandwiches fix some refried beans for breakfast amen |
As the first person who responded to this thread 13 years ago on 6/6/06 probably while working my first job at Subway, I would like to report that I am now a cook at an upscale restaurant and today I ate Fettuccine with Italian Sausage, Rabe, Kalamata Olives and a nice pan sauce. Good day.

Switzerland has the worst food ever. I've been eating a lot of shit for the last 6 months. I can't wait to get home for Christmas to have some proper home-made food again.

well, french part is like 3 hours from Zurich by train, so not that easy to go there for lunch breaks :) |

i grew up with an emigré german swiss baker in the neighborhood, and the breads and pastries and cheeses and hams were glorious. maybe focus on their fortes? though i admit the same thing 3x day would be... trying. german cooking (no offense, people) is not the greatest. maybe investigate a little. i don’t know. can’t you get supplies from home? are there immigrant shops? what do you miss? |
Swiss cheese stinks
literally! ![]() If you ever come across a can like this, hold your nose and run away as fast as you can! |
the one i can’t stand is limburger. at least the american version of it. phew!
thanks of the warning about that one. i’ve never seen it but will look for it—for science! :D |
Initial reaction:
Limburgers are not cheese, they are people that live in the province Limburg. They do not necessarily stink but they all do speak funny and too often unintelligible Reaction after googling: Haha, I live 30 minutes from Limburg and I seriously never heard of that cheese! I'll check if they have it in my (tiny, especially for US standard) supermarket But it is a traditional Dutch product apparently, not something that's invented in the US and branded to sound foreign ;-) Update: correction: it's actually not Dutch but Belgian cheese, in Belgium there's also a province named Limburg. |
