What's the most unusual fresh vegetable or fruit that you eat?
Comments (38)Oh my, I eat so many Asian vegetables that many people might find unusual. Bok choy, gai lan, gobo root, mizuna, gai choy, yu choy,shingiku,winter melon and others I don't know the names of. Jessy,I love Shiso (Perilla) too, and copied your recipe to try it out. When I make tempura, the Shiso leaves make an interesting and attractive tempura. I like seaweed too, the crisp Nori sheets, the Wakame, and also Hijiki. Not too many people I know (who aren't Japanese) have had Hijiki. One buys it dried and I have found that the Japanese brands are of better quality than some less expensive, non-Japanese brands I have bought in Chinese markets. I don't use a recipe, since I have been making it for years, but I found this one on the net, and the proportions sound about right. My only quibble with the recipe is the part about soaking it for 30 minutes. In my opinion, that would make it far too squishy. I soak it for about 10 minutes, and then rinse it repeatedly to make sure it's clean of sand and grit. It will soak up plenty of moisture from the other ingredients and still retain a bit of crunch. NGREDIENTS * 30g dried hijiki * 1 piece abura-age (thin fried bean curd) * 1 small carrot * 150ml dashi * 2 tbsp sugar * 1 tbsp sake * 2 tbsp soy sauce Hijiki no nimono HOW TO COOK Rinse the hijiki well until the water runs clear, then soak in plenty of water for 30 minutes. Put the fried bean curd in a sieve and pour boiling water over it, to remove excess oil. Cut in half lengthways and then into strips. Cut the carrot into fine strips. Place the hijiki, fried bean curd and carrot in a pan, then add the dashi, sugar and sake, and bring to the boil. Cut out a round of cooking foil slightly smaller than the diameter of the pan, and cover the hijiki with it. Simmer for 5 minutes. Add the soy sauce, then simmer again until the hijiki absorbs the broth. I love fiddleheads, but can get them only rarely around here. But there is a bracken fern that grows in areas on the coast that is very good to eat. You pick the fern shoots in the Spring when they are still quite tightly curled up. I use a good number of edible flowers in salads. Right now I've got alyssum, roses, nasturtiums, and pansies. I can't think of a fruit I would consider unusual, maybe Lychees? I do have a penchant for Moroccan preserved lemons....See MoreSwedish Cabbage Recipe?
Comments (7)The Penzey's spice catalog had a recipe this month for Danish red cabbage, which is a traditional Christmas dish. I don't have the recipe with me, but this one, from Recipezaar, is very similar. 1 medium red cabbage, shredded (about 1 1/2 lbs) 1 large granny smith apples, shredded (or any Tart apple) 1 medium russet potato, grated 1 cup apple cider 1/2 cup white wine vinegar (or cider vinegar) 1 tablespoon granulated sugar 1 teaspoon caraway seeds salt and pepper In a large saucepan, combine all the ingredients. Mix well. Bring mixture to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce heat to low, simmer, stirring occasionally, until the potato and cabbage are tender and cooked (about 40 minutes). Serve hot or cold. Improves overnight!...See MoreDo You Have A Recipe to Share Aug.25
Comments (9)I saw this recipe and had all the ingredients so this is dinner tonight. I will report back to give it a rating, but it should be yummy. Salsa Chicken Casserole Ingredients 1 cup uncooked rice 1 cup frozen corn kernels (thawed) 1 (15 oz.) can black beans 1 (16 oz.) jar salsa 1 cup chicken broth ý Tbsp chili powder ý tsp oregano 2 large (1.5 lbs.) chicken breasts 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese 2 whole green onions, sliced Instructions Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Drain and briefly rinse the black beans. Add the dry rice, black beans, corn, salsa, chicken broth, chili powder, and oregano to an 8ÃÂ8 inch casserole dish. Stir until everything is evenly combined. Cut the chicken breasts into three pieces each. Push the chicken pieces down into the rice salsa mixture in the casserole dish. Try to push them down as far into the liquid as theyâÂÂll go. Cover the casserole dish tightly with foil. Bake for one hour. Take the casserole dish out of the oven, test the rice with a fork to make sure it is tender. If it is not, recover the dish, return it to the oven, and bake for 10-15 minutes more. When the rice is tender, sprinkle the cheese over top and return the casserole to the oven for a few minutes, or until the cheese has melted. Add the sliced green onions on top after baking and serve hot. http://inspiredreamer.com/salsa-chicken-casserole/ Here is a link that might be useful: Salsa chicken casserole...See MoreDo You Have A Recipe to Share?
Comments (15)I recently made this for the first time, and it was very, very good. I did add some thawed and patted dry pearl onions to the remaining liquid before adding the thickener for gravy. I used a blade cut chuck roast. Rootitoot Rare Roast Beef Rare roast beef in the Instant Pot??? YES! This is not for a pot roast cut like chuck or blade roast. This is for a cut you would ordinarily roast in the oven: top sirloin, sirloin tip, top round or eye of round. You can dry-brine the roast ahead of time if you like: rub the roast with 2 tsp kosher salt 3 - 4 lb beef roast salt and pepper 1 Tbsp oil 1 1/2 cups beef broth (or part broth, part red wine) 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce 2 tsp soy sauce 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 tsp herbs of your choice (optional) 1/2 cup water 2 1/2 Tbsp flour Season the roast generously with salt (unless you have brined it – it has enough salt) and pepper. Hit the Saute button and when the display says Hot, add the oil. Brown the roast on all sides. Brown. Not grey. If you want a nice rich, beefy flavour, brown that meat. Transfer the roast to a plate. Deglaze the pot: add the broth and/or wine and the Worcestershire and soy sauces to the pot. Scrape all the browned bits off the bottom and into the liquid. Add the garlic and any herbs you like, rosemary, basil, thyme. Put the trivet in and the roast on the trivet. Close the lid and make sure the valve is set to Sealing. Push the Pressure Cook (or Manual) button and adjust the time using the + and - buttons to get to either 3 or 4 minutes. That's not a typo. THREE of FOUR minutes. Three for rare, four for medium-rare. When it beeps that it's done, leave it for 50-60 minutes on Keep Warm: 50 for a smaller roast, 60 for a larger one. Open the pot and check the temperature with an instant-read thermometer. 115 for rare, 125 for medium-rare. If it's not quite there, close the pot for another 5 minutes or so. Transfer the roast to a plate and cover with tin foil. Whisk together the flour and water until completely smooth. Remove the trivet and hit the Saute button. When it's boiling, add about half the flour/water slurry to thicken. If you want it thicker, add a little more. Add salt and pepper to taste. The roast will be perfectly succulent and tender....See Morerob333 (zone 7b)
