Nothing advanced about it. Just browning it and then throwing some veggies and liquid in there.
I've got my hands on an immersion blender and I want to try and just blend the carrots and onions into the gravy. Is there a particular technique to keep it from flying everywhere?

Coming along. I kinda forgot I was supposed to put on some potatoes so it's simmering on low while those cook.
Then I guess I'll rest the meat in foil while I make the gravy. Thinking I'll blend the veggies on a measuring vessel and still make the gravy in the pot, though. Old habits and all that.

It wasn't really a roast-shaped cut before it was trussed.

I'd start with 1/4 cup and then add a little at a time until you reach a desired sweetness. After this third time preparing it, I think a whole cup is a bit too much despite the rest of the recipe being great. Some sauerkraut brands are more sour or stored in more brine than others anyway. Keep some APV and a potato or two on hand just in case. Also would suggest browning your meat before adding water to make the broth.

8oz ground beef
8oz italian sausage
32oz can of tomato sauce
6-10oz of chicken stock
Red wine (optional)
1 med-large onion, diced
1 large bell pepper, diced
1/2lb of mushrooms, diced
4-6 cloves of garlic, minced
1tbsp dried italian herbs

Brown your meats with a little salt and red pepper flakes, drain and set aside. Throw all your diced veg in (minus garlic), and cook over medium heat until most of the moisture has been cooked out and it's just starting to get a little color on it. Add your garlic and stir, then deglaze with your red wine (if used), otherwise use your chicken stock. Get that bubbling (if it's wine), then add your chicken stock. Once that comes to a boil, add your tomato sauce, herbs, and browned meat. Simmer on low for half an hour so the dried herbs are well-hydrated, then simply top with freshly grated parmesan and fresh herbs.

This goes well (for me) with 1lb of pasta. You may need to adjust your ratios a bit, but really I just like a chunky sauce with lots of ingredients. When in doubt, more meat and more veg without adjusting your tomato sauce and/or stock or wine. Like chunks of tomato? Go for it! Want less simmering time? Use the same process to doctor up some jarred sauce from the store.

No, not this time, but they were probably there before as well. I looked it up and apparently it's common knowledge. Disgusting knowledge. It's some sorts of beetles.
They are most common in paprika, cayenne pepper, and chili powder because the bugs lay eggs on the plants and then just live like fucking kings in your spices until you notice. They are also in turmeric, coriander, cumin, fennel, and dry ginger amongst many others. And an added bonus of granola. Granola bugs have wings even.

Forgot to take pictures, but I also peeled and cut 500g of potatoes, a bigass carrot, a celeriac, and a rutabaga. The potatoes and cauliflower have now been simmering for 20 mins in their respective pans, and the carrot, celeriac, and rutabaga have been roasting in the oven with some oil, salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary, and sage.

After those 20 minutes, I pureed the cauliflower and riced the potatoes, after which I added 50 grams of butter, salt, pepper, and 350ml of the infused milk.

>>11592170
Things I learned: the cauliflower puree doesn't need the milk. Next time I'll boil the beets in the cream but steam the cauliflower separately and just add it during the blending step. The puree needs that bit of mace and garlic, so I'll sautee a small clove of galic with the onions and stew a blade of mace with the cream and beet. I also meant it as more of an amuse-bouche, so I'll serve it in shot glasses instead. The root vegetables could have benefited from an extra 10-20 minutes in the oven. For the sauce I'll dice the onion a bit finer and maybe use shallots instead. Also, sorry for AGAIN forgetting to post a cross-section.

The venison and the mashed taters came out perfect.

Add a bit of flour to thicken the whole thing and cook a minute or so. Add some spices, tomato sauce, beef broth and scrape whatever stuck to the pan before bringing to a simmer. Add pasta, put a lid on it and wait until pasta has cooked and absorbed all the liquid, stirring every few minutes to prevent sticking.

Oh, I have a whole bag of that but I've always just used wheat flour for thickening sauces and gravies. I can't taste a difference and it works just fine.
The other guy said "the potato starch" so I think he did mean starch specifically from the potatoes I was cooking. Guess I could have just cooked the potatoes in the pot with the meat. I do that sometimes. Doesn't do anything to thicken the gravy, though.

Since some people who actually make food are in this thread - anyone have a good salsa recipe?
Every one I see is just:
whole tomatoes
onion
garlic
jalapenos
cilantro

salt
lime
sometimes sugar

Cut up the chicken thighs and throw them in a bowl with some salt/pepper and mix them up. Let them sit out while you cut your veggies.

Heat up your electric wok because you are a poor fuck and only have an electric stove in your shitty apartment. Throw in peanut oil and let it get hot then throw in half the chicken.

Cut up your veggies while you let the chicken sit. Don't fuck with it for a minute or two. Add the garlic in a bit.

Throw the onions in next and let the chicken/onions get a good brown. I like the onion/chicken a little blackened. You have to kind of know the cook times for the ingredients and add them gradually. Meat always goes first, quick cooking stuff like spinach or peppers go in last (i like peppers with some crunch still, but that's up to you).

ingredients halved for all the vegetables/garlic/ginger btw. You don't want to crowd the wok so you make this in batches. This yields 6-8 servings in 2 batches.

Throw in the rest of the veggies (sprouts, shrooms, ginger, jalapeno). Right when you throw the veggies in add soy sauce to taste (I give it about a 3-4 second pour), 3 Tbsp of sambal oelek, and about a Tbsp of oyster sauce. Mix all that shit up really good and consider adding another T of peanut oil if you need to. Just cook until desired doneness of veggies. I really try to just watch the mushrooms because it is easy to overcook the little fuckers.

Shoutout to the real MVP, pic related. Shit is unreal.

You can make the salty/sweet sticky sauce yourself with something like:
>6T soy sauce
>1 cup stock
>3T corn starch
>2T honey/brown sugar
>2T rice vingar
>whatever else you feel like (garlic, sambal, ginger, pepper, oyster sauce, etc).

This sauce is the one most people are familiar with from chinese takeout. It has to cook down and bubble/turn brown. I think it's too much of a pain in the ass to make every time but I'll throw it in some days when I'm feeling it.

Makes it easy to put down veggies and cook lunch for half the week. Reheats from frozen and fridge pretty well.

Chile del arbol in desired quantities as these will be your main heat factor.

California chiles any quantity but I recommend using substantial of both new Mexico and California chiles
New Mexico Chile's see above for instructions on quantity.

guajillo chiles
one onion quartered
3-4 cloves of garlic
Oregano to taste
Cumin and salt to taste

just reconstitute the California, guajillo, and New Mexico chili's in water for a few hours. while waiting for your chili's to come back to life, take your arbol chili's and fry them up a bit with a splash of oil, you'll know they're done when they're not burned but they make you cough and want to cry. then drain your reconstituted chilis remove the seeds and stems from them and blend those up with everything else and taste every so often with a chip or a spoon. adjust seasonings as you like. Also if you want to turn it into a chili sauce for pozole or enchiladas just strain it through a fine mesh seize to remove any solid particles and it's ready to go.

Throw the onions, tomatoes, and peppers on the grill - I do this every time I BBQ. Grill the tomatoes til they blister, the onion til it's soft, and get the peppers completely blackened and peel the skin off. The char and smokiness takes the salsa to a whole new level.
Additionally, you need a lot of cilantro and probably more salt than you think. I use serrano + jalapeno, plum tomatoes, and a large yellow onion grilled, plus a bit of raw white onion thrown in at the end.
