I eat a lot of porkchops and protein bars and it makes me gassy as hell. For what it's worth I'm at the gym at least 3 times a week for low-ish end weightlifting and workout, other times just cardio. However, I get the sense I don't use up enough of that protein intake. *toot*

nah, Seattle Finn here. The fishing Finns came here, the farming Finns are Minn residents

I have some chicken and black bean noodles for lunch today. I'm really fucking hungry right now.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! i didn't know about this migration. at all. awesome! i thought you came from norwegians or something.

this must be from way before the leningrad cowboys did america :D

wtf is black bean noodles? this is new to me. kindly explain.

It's just pasta...but made out of black beans. So it's black spaghetti. We just stir fried it with some chicken and red/yellow peppers. It's pretty good. My girlfriend is on a health kick so she's trying out different things to cut carbs n stuff.

When she told me about them, I got a little excited. There's this Korean dish with noodles and black bean SAUCE. It's made with black bean paste and it's so damn delicious. But...no it was the noodles....><

oh hell! i love black beans and that sounds superyummy.

i'll sniff around. post a make/model if you have.

Yo, seriously though...the black bean noodles are good n all....but if you have never tried Jajangmyeon(noodles and black bean sauce)....make that shit or seek it out somewhere, it's to die for.... I wish I lived near more Korean food spots. I used to live near the Korean part of Chicago and I kind of miss it......a lot. Their spicy beef stew...mmmmmmmmmmm.

oh hell I'M SOLD. thanks for that info! i did come across that dish yesterday when googling, so now i know how much it rules. will see about making it if i can. ¡gracias!

went out to the nut farm and got some hazelnuts and walnuts, cracking and eating!

(the lower-salt version)

with fried eggs and roasted green chiles, black coffee. just no tortilla. awesome!

chEEEEEEEEEEFFF!!!

i don't know if you read this anymore but tonite i just made a caramelized red onion for a pizza (or pissaladière, whatever it's called--it was a fathead dough)

AND IT WAS FUCKING AMAZING

i know the recipe calls for white or yellow onion, i forget which kind, but like a proper sudaca i had none so i reduced a whole red onion in irish butter, with a little thyme

IT HAS A HINT OF OLIVE IN THE FLAVOR!!

i don't know if it's the reduced purple pigments or the fact that i burned the bottom a leeeeeeeetle bit and so it added some bitterness, but i swear it tastes like motherfucking black olives a bit

glorious red onion--she and i shall never part

well.

what have you been up to mein freund? (ha ha--sorry to maim your language--)

but yeah. like severian to his movies, i to my cookin'

caramelize one and see.

--

the other half of the thing i covered in a mash of: house-grown tomatoes (some plants are blooming in february!), fish sauce, erythritol (i'm into keto these days), red pepper flakes, oregano, basil, yeast flakes (i had no parmesan at hand)

ha ha ha ha ha

i shall enjoy myself even in teh alpacalypse

turkey.

i had a 22lb butterball in the freezer. got it for 96c on sale around thanksgiving. i slow-roasted 2 weeks ago (overnight, 10h) with just salt and pepper

sliced & diced it & stored it again, and now it's ready for whenever.

tasted great just plain.

A bunch of bananas I bought two weeks ago still haven't turned. I've left them in what little sunlight hits the house, but other than that I'm not sure what to do. Still green. Any advice?

put them in a paper bag in a warm place (not hot)

like maybe on top of the fridge or something

temps help ripening and paper bag traps the ethylene gas which is the plant hormone that causes ripening in this kind of fruit (in others, it stops it)

Brietbart said ethylene gas makes you gay.

so did your bananas gay it up yet?

Orange marmalade glazed pork tenderloin, fresh asparagus and rice pilaf with carrots, onions, tomatoes and parsely
