The ultimate cheap meal? Kenji’s New Orleans–Style Red Beans and Rice

Thumbnail

Upvotes

I’ve been trying to learn about how to make dishes with dried beans as it’s so cheap. This one blew my mind. I think all of the ingredients combined were sub $20. I didn’t use the pickled meat stuff. Just some andouille.

I also feel like it’s a pretty healthy dish for cheap ingredients.

Takes a lot of time, but it’s worth it.

Foolproof pizza dough

I use it to make sheet pan pizzas and my family was very excited to eat!! The last few sheet pan pizzas were too much bread but I think I got the amount of dough right this time. I double the recipe and after the rise, I take about 3/4 and put it on the sheet pan. Not too thick and not too thin.

Question/Help Healthy School Snacks

I am looking to make healthy school snacks for my kids. I searched power balls on serious eats and didn’t get any results. Any ideas? I am willing to trade a little work and sugar for things that aren’t processed.

Fav serious eats or serious eats coded recipes for dried beans?

Upvotes

Hi! I'm trying to get my grocery bill a little lower every month, and for whatever reason it's taken me foreverrrrrr to get into cooking dried beans. i would buy them, but never get around to soaking them and they would sit in my pantry for years. i finally remembered to soak some beans and made black beans and rice for dinner last night with avocado, pickled onion and jalapeno, a little cheese, and it was heavenly.

now i'm looking for more dried bean recipes from fellow cooking nerds! what are your fav recipes or tips for winging dried beans?

Question/Help Kenji’s all day meat lasagna…yay or nay?

Upvotes

Hey yall I’m looking for lasagna recipes and I’m wondering if Kenji’s is any good. I’m mostly worried because the recipe requires a lot of liquid and you only let it simmer for about 2-3 hours. I’ve read some reviews that said it took them 5 hours for the sauce to reduce, does anyone have any experience with this bolognese recipe? Thank yoi!

The Wok The Wok Weekly #131: Orange Peel Beef, By Way of Sichuan and Old New York

Post image
Upvotes

This was very good! I didn't have the dried orange peel so used fresh mandarine rind as suggested and the frying process could have gone a little better, but overall I would make his again or more likely try this version at a restaurant. Wasn't too sweet with tons of flavor.

Question/Help 3 pound sirloin roast. Ideas needed

Thumbnail

Upvotes

As the title states, I have a 3# sirloin roast from the farm that I get a quarter cow from. Not a huge fan of the sirloin when he cuts it for steaks so I requested a roast.

Sirloin isn’t my favorite anyway but this is a good size and thickness for once, so give me your best suggestions! I was thinking of slicing it thin for some stir fry and digging out The Wok for some of the bookmarked recipes I have.

Not opposed to smoking or grilling either, or sectioning it out into different cuts if I can?

Help a girl out with some of your favorite recipes please and thanks!

Totally blown away with how delicious this was. It was a lot of work, but 10/10 recommend. I love red wine based dished and the fact that this had port and wine hit the nail on the head for me. I served this with mash as I was too tired at this point to make the veggies I planned on serving with it. Next time I’ll plan a bit better and serve veggies with it as well.

Question/Help LF Serious Eats recipe that includes a spicy marinade/salsa that I cannot remember the name of!

Upvotes

Edit: it ended up being the carne asada recipe! Thanks everyone for the help! https://www.seriouseats.com/carne-asada-food-lab-recipe-kenji

Hi everyone! During COVID times in 2020 I discovered one of my favorite SE recipes ever. It featured a marinade/salsa/sauce that included oranges and smoked chiles in adobo. It was spicy and so, so delicious.

I can’t remember if it was an Instant Pot recipe, or if it was chicken, steak, or pork. But the sauce ended up more of a deeper red if I remember correctly. I always made extra because my partner and I loved to eat it with tortilla chips.

I’ve done some googling but nothing is popping up. Does anyone have any ideas or does this sound familiar to you? I’m dying to make this again. I hadn’t done it in a while because it does take some time and I have to pull out the blender, etc but it’s been on my mind lately. Would love to see if the community knows which one I’m thinking of!

Edit: it also used dried chiles that were meant to be rehydrated.

I’ve made this with the oxtails, but I bought more expensive, fattier chuck eye this time and just didn’t feel like adding the extra expense. My compromise was to cut the chuck in half and sear one half… will probably be delicious! Hacked.

I tried Kenji’s approach to crispy tofu in the wok this evening and it was delicious. The tofu was indeed crispy, right up until it was time to toss in the sauce. It wasn’t crunchy anymore. Have any of you had success keeping things crisp?

Bravetart giving some love to Stella's no-churn ice cream

Thumbnail seriouseats.com
Upvotes

I usually stick to making her chocolate version and decided this year to try a few different variations:
- roasted strawberry: added about 3/4 cup of roasted strawberries and their juices (half of this to the whipped cream, other half to the whipped egg/sugar mixture and then fold everything together)

- salted caramel: just used up about 1/4 cup of store-bought salted caramel, brought to just above room temperature to where it was fluid

- maple walnut: used about 20g of maple sugar for same weight of sugar; used toasted sugar to cut back on some of the sweetness, toasted walnuts and then boiled in maple syrup for a few seconds. alternated with ice cream base and walnut/maple as I loaded up the container.

what other variations are out there?

The base recipe is Stella Park's very easy devil's food cake + chocolate swiss meringue buttercream.

Recipe: https://www.seriouseats.com/bravetarts-devils-food-cake

Then I added instant pudding mix, crushed Oreos, gummy worms, a pocky fence, and learned how to make edible moss! A lot of parts but relaticely easy and rewarding for a chance to capture being a kid again!

Used a leek instead of shallots. This would make an excellent base for creamed corn, and its rajas-adjacency kind of puts me in the mind of queso as well.

This looks a lot like AI Slop, and the mixer they're talking about does not come with stainless attachments either.
