This place makes a really good in-house ketchup. It's not all full of sugar or corn syrup like the commercial brands.

why would anyone do that to food

looks like something WAS done to it before it was turned into a dish

I had the wonders of radishes revealed to me a couple of years ago when I ordered a few interesting seed varieties instead of just planting the red globes and white icicles available locally.

oh god that loaf is going to make me lose my breakfast

next time I drink coffee I won't pour half and half for fear it will stir up the hardboiled eggs and beans at the bottom of the cup.

pretty your lost breakfast was already incorporated into the loaf xp

We had some vegetables today. Weren't sure how to hold them together so we made a paste out of horse, fish, and eggs.

how's life, Monday, 24 September 2012 17:06 (thirteen years ago)

you didn't chew up one of the vegetables and then spread the resulting paste between two intact vegetables?

People were really big on gelatin in the 70's, weren't they.

I'm so glad that I'm not on acid seeing these things.

I have to agree, mayo is disgusting. It's pretty good on a Burger King, though. Nayonaise is really good but I figured out how to make my own - silken tofu + turmeric and mustard, oil, vinegar.

I feel like I perhaps need to reconsider my position on mayo, based on these dishes

Mayo is just like any other food: don't try and make it into a smiley face.

I don't think HUEG was the appropriate warning there

My parents did not have the time to make all these weird "presentation" dishes. They made a limited number of main dishes, like pork chops, meatloaf, pot roast or chicken and rotated through them very frequently. But none of it was disgusting crap food. This was in the 1950s and 1960s.

this was the molecular gastronomy of its day, im sure. where the molecules were meant to invoke love canal.

you got mayo in my paleo (Hunt3r), Monday, 24 September 2012 18:01 (thirteen years ago)

And when it came to desserts, they never once set anything on fire at the table. 95% of the time it was a bowl of ice cream.

Aimless, Monday, 24 September 2012 18:05 (thirteen years ago)

that poor ice cream

I will admit the Campbelled eggs recipe way upthread sounds like a good idea.

nickn, Monday, 24 September 2012 18:50 (thirteen years ago)

does proper from-scratch mayo taste different from kraft? i've tried making it a few times and it always comes out bitter and vinegary and mustardy

Philip Nunez, Monday, 24 September 2012 18:54 (thirteen years ago)

eggs belong in soups, just not campbells chicken soup

zachylon (zachlyon), Monday, 24 September 2012 18:57 (thirteen years ago)

This is more soup belongs in eggs, though. I haven't had Campbell's chicken soup in decades, but I'm assuming it's probably better now than in the 70s. And even if not, it'll add a chickeny/salty base to the eggs, which is good. (More likely I would a better soup to do the same thing.)
