Any of y'all make bread? I got some sourdough starter recently and I've really been enjoying keeping it alive and experimenting.
Other than bread, do you have any things you like to bake on a regular basis?

>have you baked with rye alot sushi
Not really, think this was the second/third time? And only made wheat bread like once or twice. Bread is kinda hard to get right, while sugary stuff is super easy to make and get better quality than store bought, so that´s where I´ve spent most of my baking efforts prior.
I have an old goto cookbook that has a lil bit of everything that is usually good, so I just used a recipe from that. Was actually scalded rye bread, to be more precise, where you pour boiling water over the rye flour and let it cool 10-12h before making the dough. Haven´t done regular rye bread without scalding so dunno how much of a difference it makes.
So I dunno, try to find a recipe you trust the source of and go from there?

Rye flour is my nemesis. Every time I bake with it, my bread comes out too thick and dense, even following the recipes I find exactly.

Initialized my first (rye flour (rour dough? (rawr dough?))) sourdough starter yesterday, seeing signs of life, just gave it its first snack. Hyped to make my first real sourdough bread when it's past the initial phase. Also wanna try mixing in a dollop of starter into pancake batter.

>>783 returning, and I uh, underevaluated how much life there'd be in this thing. Put it in too small a jar that it filled about 2/5 the way of, just noticed it has bubbled up to the point it's past the brim slightly pudging out and pushing up the loose lid.
Lucky I spotted it before I fell asleep, and have a twice as large clean jar on hand.

 No.785

>>784 again and not intending to spam but god dang, just gave the starter a sniff while giving it its second snack and it's smelling like some kind of luxurious belgian beer, kinda like a blonde Leffe. Was considering feeding it wheat flour as well but really want to know the full extent of the direction it's already going in. Maybe I'll split it into two cultures, one exclusively rye, one 50/50 rye/wheat feeds.

Anyone else into soup? Recipe's, thoughts, or techniques?
I've been making lots of sweet potato soups recently. It's pretty cheap, and super tasty. Cutting up the veggies takes a while, but I can make enough at a time to last me a couple days in the fridge. My recipe varies, but usually includes about 2 tbsp olive oil, a couple cups water, a teaspoon salt, and 3 or 4 sweet potatos.

Made some Sopa de Ajo-ish inspired by chef Johns (FoodWishes) recipe video to make use of some dried out sourdough bread. Chopped up a chorizo into slivers rather than using ham since that was what I had.
Surprisingly delicious with soggy hot bread soup.

I love soup, a lot. I made a load of dumplings today, and had some filling left over - mushrooms, onion, cabbage, carrot, and spices. So I added water, cornflower, edamame beans and peanuts to it, and ate the dumplings in it. So tasty!

I roasted up some squash, carrots, onions, garlic, and apples, got the immersion blender out and made butternut squash soup. For spices I used nutmeg, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, sage, salt and pepper. Came out super tasty, I'm proud of myself.

Try making them with a roux
Heat up some oil in the pan you're gonna be cooking, put in some sifted flour and let it cook a bit. Once it's ready if you scrape the bottom with a wooden spatula, it should make a clear path and the flour/oil mix should be pinkish at the sides of it.
That's when you add water (room temperature) or stock or whatever else you are using and whisk until you develop Rhabdomyolysis or the water starts to boil. Then you put in the veggies and whatever else you want. Scrape the bottom of the pan every 3-5 minutes when it's boiling, otherwise keep mixing it with a spatula or something when it's not boiling but still cooking, or flour will fry itself to the bottom of the pan. You can also thicken the soup just by adding flour (usually leaves an aftertaste and isn't as nice) when it's boiling or even using stale bread (traditional for Ghoulash).
I'd suggest this for anyone wanting to make soup in this thread. It's basically the easiest way to make an incredibly filling soup if you're on a budget.

Yo, add some type of heavy cream in the middle (the type that holds the shape but isn't too strong in flavour, forgot the name you should know what I mean) and fresh croutons into that.

Up to this day, I've never understood why people like sweets with their coffee. Whenever I took a bite of a sweet roll and mixed it with a sip of coffee, the coffee just killed the sweet taste of the roll. But now I've found the real purpose of coffee and sweets:

Drinking coffee AFTER eating a bite of something sweet clears your palate with its bitterness and prepares it for the next bite. That way, every bite of the sweet stuff is almost like as if it was the first. While normally sweets would lose their taste after a few bites, coffee "resets" your taste buds.

Whenever I have some cooked leftover potatoes, I like to spread some butter or mayonaise on bread, then put the sliced potatoes on the bread and sprinkle with salt. Depending on the species of potato, it can be a bit bad though.

I toast my hamburger buns in mayo, though, I will admit. It works alright as a butter substitute. I always put mayo in my sandwiches anyway, so I might as well put it on when I toast the buns. It works well.

It's Kombucha, tea fermented with bacteria and yeast. It has a strange sour and sweet taste and is a bit fizzy. It's interesting and I'd recommend at least trying it. To be honest I avoided it for a long time just because it's one of those things that crazy people and sketchy magazines my grandma reads ascribe ridiculous and nonsensical health benefits to, but it actually tastes good so who cares.

I don't really understand the appeal of Japanese curry, but then I've usually found Japanese cuisine to be a bit overrated. Japanese curry manages to be weirdly bland and I'm not sure how; I don't even mean lack of pungency, just a lack of…depth of flavor, I guess? Could be an unsophisticatedness to the spice mixes, I guess.

I love and adore curry rice, it's my favourite. I like to take any Japanese curry roux and mix it with miso and gochujangg, typically made with potato and some kind of legume like pigeon peas or chickpeas. I want to try making it with other things maybe shrimp or ground turkey, I don't know. Curry rice is peak comfort food.

I eat curry pretty much every day and I like Japanese curry. It seems like it would be intentionally bland and simple, since it's a comfort food associated with childhood within a cuisine that values subtle flavors. I add stuff like soy sauce and katsuboshi and miso rather than the spices I usually cook with. It helps to think of it more as a curry-themed dish within Japanese cuisine than what someone from a traditional curryeating culture would think of as curry.

Can we talk about dishes that don't require a lot of effort to cook?
Do you have some tips to make a relatively simple dish taste great, or maybe enhance something that doesn't even need to cooked?
For example, for the most delicious cheese toast ever, try to spread a layer thin or thick, don't be afraid to experiment!
of mayo on a slice of bread should be a really soft type of bread, white farmhouse is perfect. Avoid thin slices then cook on a frying pan with the mayo facing down. While the breads cooks, put the cheese on it so it can melt. Fry until the mayo side is of a golden color. Do the same for the other slice of bread.

I dunno if anyone else knew about this, most people just build the sandwich and pop it in the oven.

simple tuna pasta sauce:
you will need
-can of tuna
-can of chopped tomato
-some cooking wine, i usually use red wine or vermouth
-olives
-onion
-garlic
-anchovies (optional)

>saute chopped onions and garlic until the onion is translucent
>add can of tuna, break it up with a wooden spoon, let it cook for about 30 seconds
>add tomatoes, olives, and a glug of wine
>optionally, this is where you would add some chopped anchovies. Don't worry, it won't taste too fishy it just adds umami.

Speaking of rice: Jasmine rice with seasoning salt. Good for a cheap, low-effort side or if you just want something to snack on that doesn't require a whole lot of attention.

>jasmine rice ($1-2/lb)
>seasoning salt (recommend "Johnny's" brand but generic works too, about $5 for a 1/2lb shaker)

>rinse rice
>good ratio for jasmine is 1 cup water per 1 cup rice
>cook rice in rice cooker
>don't remove lid for 10 minutes once cooker is done to let rice absorb more of the steam

I mean "low effort" is a bit of a definition thing, but I'll share some recipes. I start cooking whenever I am hungry, so my stuff needs to be somewhat fast to make. You can find the recipes online, if it's a chinese sounding dish, I probably got it from the YT channel "chinese cooking demystified":

>snacks (lowest of low effort)
garlic bread (bread + butter + garlic + cheese in oven)
Toast hawaii (toast + ham + slice of pineapple + cheese)
baked chickpeas (toss chickpeas, salt, oil, herbmix, then put in oven until crispy)


>very low effort
Spätzle/Spaetzle (german noodles, best eaten with cheese)
Shaxian peanut noodles

__Oyasumi Pudding__

ingredients
- milk
- semolina
- sugar

seasoning
- cinnamon
- allspice
- essential lavender oil
- salt
- (extra sugar if desired)

Mix milk with sugar and bring it to a boil. Reduce heat and mix in the semolina. Keep stirring slowly. When it forms a nice pulp, add cinnamon, salt, allspice and mix well. If it gets too thick, just add milk. Take off the stove and add 1-3 drops of essential lavender oil (be careful here, this stuff is strong).

Made some cinnamon apple oatmeal today, along with a smoky ham & cheese sandwhich I put in the waffle iron.
The oatmeal is still missing a lil something, much better than last time I tried to make some at least. Hope it's not sugar, trying to avoid it as much as possible nowadays. Looked up some recipes and saw one that added nutmeg and ginger on top of the cinnamon, maybe that can give it that extra kick.

A tip for another oatmeal variation is to fry half an onion finely chopped until soft and translucent, then you cook your oats in the same pan (leaving the onion in) as you normally would except using chicken stock instead of water+salt. Fry an egg while it cooks and serve with that on top. Super hearty.

>>738 again, had another go at that cinapple oats today, added the ginger but didn't have any nutmeg, and instead of adding milk in the bowl when eating exchanged half the cooking water for milk. At first thought it was still kinda bland, then when I was salting my boiled egg I had with it I realized I had totally forgot to add salt. Much better after adding some, imagine if I had put it in during prep instead I would be pretty much satisfied with this version of it.

I love seasoning potatoes with romero and paprika.
Sometimes potatoes do well with a little nutmeg as wel, and of course black pepper.
Black pepper works with everything. Sometimes I like to use oregano too. Or parsley.
Besides that, there's little use of spices in my cooking. I think my food is rather bland. Most people often use either tomato sauce, cream, curry, etc. But I think that's too much. I prefer a somewhat frugal use of condiments generally.

I did! I wanted to wait for a nice rainy night to enjoy it but it took a while to come (the amaretto's almost gone).

It was heavenly, as expected, tastes even better than Italian hot chocolate which I've been trying to find ever since returning to Australia. I used 90% cacao which was very bitter to start with, but the amaretto adds the perfect dash of sweetness.

i don't experiment with food all that much due to time and money constraints, but if i see something that looks good ill try to find a recipe online and make it.

So far my favorite thing that I have made would be nikuman! It takes some preparation and waiting though, and the recipe i followed called for quite a few ingredients to get the specific taste. I also ran into some problems with the dough to meat ratio, and found that it was off and i was often left with more meat than i wanted. this could have been due to me just being bad with portions and making the dough the right way. but the end result really paid off it was delicious! as soon as i finished off that batch i went back to make more

Sort of, mostly with sauces but I got a few loose recipes that take well to it. I vaguely remember a couple that turned out good.

'Fast food' Sauce
>1/4 cup mayo
>1-2 tbsp ketchup
>1-3 tsp mustard
>1 tbsp Relish (Or chopped pickles, I use whatever or just the brine)
>Sprinkle of Salt, Pepper, very light sugar (Like a half pinch), smoked paprika, Worcestershire sauce, and vinegar
Mix it up good and let it set for like half an hour to overnight. Good on burgers, fried foods, sandwiches, whatever really. Optionally add finely minced onions, onion power, garlic, or garlic powder.

Bootleg Okonomiyaki
>1 Cup each of flour, dashi stock/water
>1 Egg, beaten
>Chopped green onion or chives
>Minced sushi ginger or ginger with a splash of vinegar

>Do you like experimenting with food?
Yeah. Often after gaining the basic grasp of a recipe, lets say sauteed potatoes, I do it again, but slightly change things, differently sliced, spiced, oil. Other experiments are were I'm missing one ingredient and I try to replace it.
>What are your best creations?
I say fried potato skins. You get leftover potato skins and put them on a pan with a small bit of peanut oil and start adding spices you like, I did a pinch of cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt, to it while stirring them around. I stop cooking when they're crispy. Depending on how much spice I put I can eat them alone, if I put a little, or I can use them as crunchy topping,if I used a lot of powder.
I would never make the recipe alone though. Only when I have leftover potatoes. I like to add them to mashed potatoes I've made
>What were your worst creations?
Another potato recipe. It was simple sauteed potatoes, but I put way to much oil so whenever I bit into them the oil would leak out ruining the taste.I also put cheese on it which got burnt.
I also made a re-fried beans and mayonnaise taco. Everyone thinks its disgusting, but its OK
>Ever got something totally unexpected?
I tried to make beans and cheese, just a can of beans with a package of Mexican cheese dumped in, and it came out more like a chip dip than actual meal.
One time I sliced potatoes to thin while cooking them and made some pseudo chips
