What Did Ya'll Have For Dinner Tonight?

[lxskllr]

They're seriously good, and unique. I'm trying to find ways of using them with food, but they're good just eating out of the jar like candy. It's the size that's the problem using it with food. It's a pinecone, right? So it's just *there*. You can't spread it, so it's either mixed in with something(?), or just sitting on the top. Garnish is the easy way out, but then you don't get to eat as many cones :^D

How crunchy are those?

 

[lxskllr]

Not crunchy at all. It's like biting into honeycomb that breaks down rather than becoming chewy.

 

[Burnham]

Curious.

This tea has a specific taste. Anyway, it's worth a try. Some people like him, some don't. If you don't like it, at least you'll still have a wonderful birch bark box

Where are you headed?

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Beef broccoli stir fry.
Had some left over tri tip.

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Cream of mushroom soup (oyster and crimini) with bacon and fresh spinache and swiss chard

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Katy took better pick. I was busy

 

[lxskllr]

A sprinkle of paprika on the top would take pic level up a few notches ;^)

 

[CurSedVoyce]

Katy no into paprika, but I used to as a chef.

Fungus grows between your toes, and in dark places no one goes...

You won me over with the Mac and cheese, boss. But I cannot go so far as that.

Tell her it's tasteless.😁

I tried broccoli in the air fryer. Not terrible, but I think it's going to be a pain not using oil. Much quicker then the instant pot.

 

[lxskllr]

Details? What's the finished product look like?

 

[Dave Shepard]

It was a little burnt on the smallest pieces. I sprinkled it with black pepper, a little cayenne, garlic powder and nooch. I think the size of the pieces need to be consistent in the air fryer. I get bagged florets from BJ's, and there are some tiny bits from handling. If you use oil, I think it would measure a better product. I cooked for ten minutes. Maybe a lower temp souk be better. Still learning this contraption.

The instant pot makes perfect steamed broccoli, but it takes about a half hour.

Sautéed shrimp on a New York. Little overdone by my opinion, but I kept getting distracted.

 

[flushcut]

Do you need some proper utensils?

 

[Kaveman]

What's wrong with my jackknife and spike? Before the invention of the fork, picks/spikes were what was used for millenia. They can still be had, some quite fancy.

I have proper utensils, but I am Kaveman, after all.

Half a set of chopsticks .

What's not to like about meatloaf, French onion scalloped potatoes, butternut squash, and broccoli?
