so what you're gonna do is you're gonna trim the top off a bulb of garlic, using the knife's edge to take off the tip of every individual clove, that's important. you're gonna place the garlic face-up in a square of tinfoil, drizzle with olive oil, wrap completely in foil, place in baking tray, repeat with a copious amount of garlic bulbs. you're gonna put that baking tray in an oven set to 375-400°F, for 30-50 minutes, until soft and browned. you're gonna toast some good bread, slather generously with butter and honey, maybe a tiny lil bit o' salt. and then. you're gonna SQUEEZE. OUT. THAT. ROASTED GARLIC. onto the butter honey toast. and you're gonna eat it. food stolen directly from the plate of the gods. that's what you're gonna do.

#recipes #food #leftover roasted garlic will last over a month in the fridge so make a big batch #i warm it up in the mornings slap it on toast and that's breakfast #delicious and the garlic breath gives me Poison Point ability

Hey guys random but I wanna share this spinach pasta recipe I improvised the other day bc it's really east and tasty and a nice way to eat my greens... I've eaten it for the last several meals lol

sauce recipe (1 serving)

fresh spinach several(3?) handfuls (blended with sauce)

oat milk ~1/3 c (or a diff unsweetened milk)

small pat of butter(flavor) + 3 spoonfuls olive oil

lots of black pepper + couple shakes garlic powder (or minced garlic)

tiny pat of miso/deonjang (if u dont have it, just add more cheese, or some salt to taste)

Lots of pecorino romano or parmesan cheese (or both)

+

more handfuls spinach to eat w pasta whole, opt (several/3 handfuls; keep in mind spinach shrinks a lot when cooked) (cooked in microwave, with sauce liquid)

more cheese, black pepper, parsley etc for serving

Note: need a blender to make the spinach sauce green. I used a small bullet blender. If you don't have a blender, just cook and eat the spinach pieces whole alongside the pasta instead of blending it w the sauce, like an alfredo cream sauce.

With whole spinach pieces:

>combine sauce ingred in tall, microwave safe bowl except spinach & cheese; microwave 30 sec to melt butter/miso and mix thoroughly

>add several handfuls of spinach to the sauce liquid; this is the whole spinach pieces.

>cover + microwave for 1 min /until the spinach leaves are completely wilted and tender but still green

if u dont have a blender you'd be done here (microwave longer to reduce, add more cheese/oil to make it thicker, etc)

>add 2-3 handfuls fresh spinach into bullet blender and pour in most of the sauce liquid; Blend until fully broken down into a creamy green sauce. (add a splash more milk if it's not blending)

>combine w rest of sauce in the bowl; add cheese and microwave 30+ sec more uncovered (*i add cheese at the end bc it's harder to blend with the spinach)

Without whole spinach pieces (just green sauce): combine all sauce ingred Including spinach into bullet blender; blend until fully combined; transfer to bowl & microwave 1 min + longer as needed to reduce (uncovered)

Pasta:

> boil pasta in salted water according to directions (go a min under and test if its cooked, for al dente pasta)

> drain + return to pot, add the sauce + stir

note: if doing this method u can also make the sauce in the same pot instead of using a microwave; after draining the pasta, leave it in strainer, and make the sauce in the same pot and simmer... turn up the heat to boil + reduce as desired, then add the pasta back in and stir until hot. (If i was making a bigger portion for multiple ppl i'd prob do this)

USING LEFTOVER COOKED PASTA (this is what i did, bc i had made a lot of pasta a few days ago, and had the leftovers stored in fridge):

> microwave pasta by itself in a bowl/plate for 1 min, covered

> add the hot sauce on top of hot pasta (microwave first if it's not hot enough)

(^i microwave sauce + pasta separately to ensure the pasta stays al dente btw... if u microwave sauce with pasta it gets soft)

(If making large batches ahead I'd store the pasta and sauce separately for the same reason... I'd prob do the same thing I did, make a large batch of pasta and then make the sauce right before eating... I just hate soft pasta tho so if u dont then dw abt it🫡 lol)

> Top w extra cheese, black pepper, parsley and serve/eat immediately!!

#food #pasta #spinach #spinach pasta #recipe #my recipe #cooking #easy meals #its rly easy and tasty... and its easier to eat spinach this way lmao #if u dont want to eat the whole spinach pieces blend all the spinach w the sauce #its rly delicious... ive eaten this for the past 3 meals to use up my leftover pasta #and its so good...#if u added basil leaves too thatd basically be pesto...#i dont have basil rn tho #i like this bc it reminds me of that peruvian dish that i rly like... what was it called?#green noodles...#*googles* tallarines verdes... i should try actually making that sometime its prob not much harder #but for now i rly like this recipe and wanted to share... success...

ok but as a white person who grew up in a rice eating culture (Cajun), hearing other white people who didn’t grow up eating rice often talk about rice is sometimes the most maddening/insane experience

#‘you have to wash rice because all rice gets bugs in it’ no????? it doesn’t????#i have multiple kinds of rice in my pantry regularly I have never seen these fucking bugs that are supposedly in all rice #do you mean weevils? because those aren’t supposed to be there #you either had a bad bag or you didn’t store shit right #you wash rice for most Asian dishes to remove starch from it #Latin and Cajun dishes dont wash rice because the starch is fine #like you could fuck up a recipe if you wash rice when you weren’t supposed to #‘you can’t keep leftover rice in your fridge it will mold within hours’ WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT #you can keep that shit in your fridge in the rice cooker pot it is literally fine it just dries out

Even though my family is in VA helping my sister to recover I’m embracing a little of our Easter traditions. I put on a cute-ish outfit and I plan on making some deviled eggs, a mini ham and some scalloped potatoes. And enjoying my peace & quiet while watching Father Brown.

#and I found a recipe that makes 2 peanut butter cookies and sounds promising #and also the only time I ever want sweet pickles is when I have ham #and that’s mostly because leftover ham gets ground up and some mayo added in to make ham salad sandwiches #honestly the ham is not really gonna be eaten today it’ll be used to make ham and potato green bean soup and sandwiches 😂

Gnocchi

Leftover Potato Mash makes me happy. There are heaps of delicious dishes you can build around leftover Potato Mash, an endless array of pies, and also Gnocchi! When I decide to make these delicious little balls of soft dough, which you can make crispy on the outside by tossing them in foaming butter, or which you can coat in a generous, fragrant sauce, I might be happiest! Have a good Monday!

Ingredients (makes about ):

about 1 ½ cup plain flour

1 heaped cup leftover Simple Potato Mash, cold

1 egg

Gadually stir one cup of the flour into the Potato Mash. Add the egg to bind it all and work ingredients together until a soft dough forms, adding more flour if necessary. Roll small portions of dough between your hands (approximately the size of a heaping teaspoon) and place them on a lightly floured tin or tray.

Place tray in the refrigerator, at least half an hour.

Retrive tray from the refrigerator. Working with one ball at a time, using your thumb, roll ball on the tines of a lightly floured fork. As you work, place gnocchi onto a lightly floured tray. When all gnocchi are ready, store them into the refrigerator again, up to a couple of days, before using.

To cook, bring water to the boil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Once boiling, stir in coarse sea salt until dissolved. Then, add half of gnocchi to boiling water; cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until done (they will rise to the surface). Remove gnocchi with a slotted spoon, and place in a colander to drain. Keep warm. Repeat procedure with remaining gnocchi.

You can then serve Gnocchi hot, sprinkled with grated Parmesan and Lemon Zest, as a side to Poached Salmon or Rosemary and Honey Roast Lamb, sauté them in Butter, oil and herbs, or toss them into Aubergine and Pepper Sauce or Pesto alla Genovese.

I have the ambition to become a broccoli sprouts girl

For dinner I roasted some chicken drumsticks in evoo with taiwanese salt, cumin, chili powder and black pepper, then pressure cooked them to make a broth with fresh ginger and goji berries. I removed the bones when the soup was finished simmers and shredded the chicken with chopsticks. I added taiwanese wood fired soy paste, fish sauce, raw sugar, lime, coconut cream, chili sauce, and a little toasted sesame oil. Served with a custard-y onsen egg + thin rice noodles + a little handful of fresh broccoli sprouts!!!! <3

#will post pics tomorrow when I make the leftovers and there's actually light in my apartment ♥️#recipe
