My theme has been "the most food for the least work that tastes good enough". I usually make a ziti like this (but fancier), but I thought I'd try this one. It's killer. I'll make this again anytime I have teenagers in the house. Virtually any pasta shape would work and the ingredients are relatively cheap and good lord is there a ton of it.
Absolutely. I think you could dress this one up really easily and turn it into something really great, but that defeats the purpose of it being a very neutral food with very neutral flavors when it's being served to kids who like it neutral.
It’s just that it makes a fast bake even faster. Unless you remember your ratios every time (I don’t), you gotta pull it all out and weigh it to bake. Self rising flour basically takes a shake of the container to evenly distribute and that’s it. You add beer and nothing else and you get great beer bread. You add cream and you have biscuits.
Like I said I don’t have it in my house, but I bake with it at the cafe I work at and it allows us to have something on the menu for less than $2 because it costs like no time at all and you can just use whatever space there is in the oven.
I have a love hate relationship with self rising flour. I already keep like 6 different flours in the house (more if you count stuff like semolina) and every time I find myself cooking with self rising, I gain a pound. The cafe I work at makes a beer bread with self rising flour that's fabulous (for the basically zero work it takes) and I'm afraid if it's too easy to make in my own house then I'll make it every day. Then again, we're talking about biscuits so it's not like I've got good standing on healthy food here to begin with.
I use the cans. I used fresh tomatoes once and they couldn't tell the difference.
It’s not the same if it isn’t cooked by someone who absolutely fucking reeks of rotting cheese and sweat and unwashed clothes. It’s an important aspect of the soup’s aroma.
Literally me at the end of this cooking day. My apron could get up and walk away on its own.
We love it. I know many people that would never donate to a politician that donate because they have vouchers. It causes them to be more engaged and mindful about who they’re giving to.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses. My kid and I assigned video games to each other for the summer and that's what I got assigned. They're playing Persona 5 Golden.
Not a patient game anytime soon, but they loved the original Fantasy Life and we've been playing and loving the new one too.
The gameplay of 2 was really fun. Jack and Claptrap did talk way too much.
