Foodies Unite #3 (trigger warning food) (Part 1)

Oh gosh, Scientifically it’s not blood, it’s a protein called myglobin (might be called something different in English)

I hope it tasted delicious :blush:

So that’s what you use it for. Our local store has just started to sell “Authentic Taco products” from Santa Maria and they’ve got a Salsa Verde I’ve been really curious about trying. I’m totally going to do this. It looks amazing :blush:

You can absolutely use it that way! The stuff in jars or cans is often quite tart or vinegar-tasting, so you may want to season to cut that flavor a bit. Extra broth can help, even lime juice can help, or play around with other ingredients to get it to your taste. Can’t wait to hear how you like it.

Thank you, I think we’ll try it next weekend. My oldest turns 18 and my parents are coming. My father “Invented Tacos” in our village. He loves food and watch cooking shows from all over the world. My parents owned a fast food place when we where kids, and when it was weekend at our house he wanted something else. He had seen a show about Tacos, and we started trying it in different ways. On the first Taco I ever ate we had Shrimp Salad on top of it :taco::blush: because we had never heard about guacamole by that time. Later on he invited friends and neighbors for Taco Parties instead of BBQ

He’d love to try this.

About two weeks before bunny passed, little guy decided his birthday was February 8th :heart: We wanted to still celebrate him. I’d originally planned on making a carrot cake in his honour, however being out of water past few days meant I took the easy route :laughing:

It was pretty good and only 510 calories.
Just added some lemon zest and a squeeze of half a lemon and salt and pepper and a little olive oil. There wasn’t any room for garlic unfortunately. I don’t think it would have worked. Too overpowering. Just MO.

It’s always in meat it comes from the cells and if I remember correctly it’s used to transport oxygen, it just changes color depending on cooking time. In Temps over 65 C (or something likely) it turns grey. It’s not dangerous and contains iron. So I guess it’s as good/healthy as a piece of meat. I can’t eat meat that’s just a little pink myself. But for some reason strange fact like this gets stuck in my brain. :joy: I also remember Disney songs, movie lines, old commercials and other things I’ve heard or read that’s useless to know.

I love having lots of options in the fridge for a lunchtime salad. A bed of baby greens, then spicy citrus cilantro slaw (the serranos were hot!) and some of the juice for dressing, a half cup of farro, blanched asparagus, some cubed chicken and some crumbled queso fresco. Fresh tasting and filling but not heavy. Leftovers are less boring when you can change up the components or application.

So happy my picky little guy ate some rainbow trout! Well, a little bit of it at least. I made a soy maple syrup marinade and baked in oven on parchment. He won’t do crispy (“crunchy” meat texture) lol :maple_leaf:

Beautiful. Good job, kiddo! Rainbow trout is a favorite, and we can get it really nice and locally caught in season here. Looking forward to that soon!!!
