drxandy | 3,225 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Last year I foraged some delicious wild ramps and went ramp crazy. Pickeled a couple pounds or so and made lovely pesto with the leaves. The last pic is the pesto on everything and topped with sliced. Ramps are like wild onions and the leaves are garlicy. I may have to brave the wild this year again, just thinking about how good they are haha. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your food pics look good, aside from that fact Always liked garlic though, how's the taste on the ramps? My mom and my sister hate onions -- they call it "being allergic", but they don't break out or anything, just that one of the chemicals in a non-caramelized onion turns their stomach. They can both do fine with onion powder, and fully caramelized onions, though, so whatever the chemical is that they take issue with breaks down with enough heat exposure. Glad I didn't inherit the issue, since there are so many recipes that are just easier to do with onion than without. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're umm like a spring onion - the bulb part is more like the bulb of a green onion, and the fiberous leaves are good braised or blended up raw as pesto (pine nuts, parmesan, olive oil) they're fantastic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabonga | 2,317 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 I picked up a roasted chicken yesterday at the grocery store and we had thatlast night for dinner with some mashed potatoes and corn. I suspect the same will be on tonight with a different veggie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over the years we have accumulated just about every attachment for the power head they make. She made homemade pasta with it the other day - which is great to be able to do since pasta seems to be about as hard to find as a unicorn these days.

Because I only have a small toaster oven to work with, it didn't get as browned as id have liked, the last time I made it, but it was still delicious and quite easy to make 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arch_8ngel | 1,597 Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 (edited) Well Alton Brown's pretzel recipe works really well. My only recommendation would be to do the baking-soda boil for longer than 30 seconds to get a better bubbly pretzel crust and to probably use more butter than he calls for (or baste them in butter once they are done). Otherwise, excellent. EDIT: also, a full-blown stand mixer (like a Kitchen-Aid) is an incredible tool. Probably the only "kitchen gadget" genuinely worth owning.
