    Made this but with a tomato, a little red onion, pastrami and baby swiss. Forking Delicious.

    • What's "baby swiss"?Continuity
    • fresh deli slice of baby swiss cheese.Ramanisky2
    • Err. OK. What sort of Swiss cheese? There are over 450 of them ...Continuity
    • Hmm, well if you’re going to buy packaged brand then this is pretty good too. Guess it also depends on where you live. https://i.ibb.co/ZGq…Ramanisky2
    • Oh, I see. It's not a real Swiss cheese, like Emmentaler, Gruyère, Alpenzeller, Raclette du Valais, Tilsiter, Vacherin Mont d'Or, l'Etivaz, Tête de Moine ...Continuity
    • Here in the states I usually get a 1lb of deli sliced Boars Head Brand Baby Swiss. https://i.ibb.co/Sdd…Ramanisky2

    Just bought this sauce, after trying the noodles with the same name.. Very spicy indeed!

    • yeah Koreans don't mess around_niko
    • I like hot. I love hot, in fact. But even I can't cope with Buldak stuff. Last time I tried to eat the noodles, I got lightheaded after standing up ...Continuity
    • ... and needed to brace myself against the door frame, all the while seeing stars, drooling uncontrollably, and sweating buckets. No joke.Continuity
    • The come-down was good, though. No crash.Continuity
    • Buldak noodles are great, and the 2x spicy is pretty warm, the 3x is pretty much my limit. A different kind of heat to Thai or Vietnamese.BuddhaHat
    • Pffff. Get the black bottle. So good, but a touch spicer. Btw, best if you pan fry noodles & dab seasame oil.hydro74
    • That shit is hot as fuck. I was surprised by it since i think i can handle heat.milfhunter
    • Try the stew type noodles. I prefer that one above the 2x spicy.milfhunter
    • I tried the extra extra hot black one once. When I got up after eating, I turned around and saw myself still sitting down.Jrdntnnr
    • @buddhahat Is it just me, or is the 3x not as spicy as it used to be? I feel like when Buldak became a meme, they toned it down a bit.garbage
    • @garbage yep I had a couple of bowls about a year apart and unless my tolerance really went up in 12 months, it wasn't as hot.BuddhaHat
    • @buddha Ah thanks for the confirm. I'd say "I miss the old 3X", but I'd be lying because that shit is murder. I remember having a bowl that was..garbage
    • ..just as heavy as wings made with The Last Dab.garbage
    • My local hot sauce store has the whole Hot Ones range, I haven't convinced myself the sauces 8-10 are a good idea.... seems like I'll buy it and try it once.BuddhaHat

    I seriously can't think of anything that's so ridiculously easy to make, and so maddeningly delicious at the same time.

    the effort-to-reward ratio is outstanding.

    Taco time!

    • Recipe available on requestContinuity
    • I'd love to try this. Recipe requested :-)Ianbolton
    • Saw the recipe. Hand toasting and deseeding chiles is ridiculously easy? :)monospaced
    • It takes ten minutes to process six chillies. How much easier do you want it?Continuity
    • yes please. I would like to get the Recipe! is it somewhat authentic?milfhunter
    • Already posted it, milfy. As to its authenticity ... I'm going to assume it's more less the real deal, though if someone from QBN México is representing in thisContinuity

    I saw mention on r/salsasnobs yesterday of Chilean pebre, which seems like a cross between a pico de gallo and a salsa. It's definitely on my list to try now, and looks pretty simple and delicious. Served with bread or meat, and it seems like you can either blend it like a salsa, or leave it rough more like a pico. Now I just need to find an aji chilli plant and add it to my collection.

    I've been absolutely dying all week for a good smokey pulled pork sandwich. Problem, I don't have a smoker, and my go-to joint is shut thanks to corona.

    So finally, yesterday, I got myself a 1.6 kg shoulder of pork. And, rather than using something like mustard or oil as a binder for my rub, I used liquid smoke, and a very generous amount of it. Applied my rub (smoked paprika for the extra smokey kick, salt, pepper, brown sugar, granulated garlic and onion, cayenne pepper).

    Wrapped the thing up in cling film and left it in the fridge overnight, and here it is ready for the oven.

    And in a 120° straight on the rack it went with a drip pan underneath, until a nice bark formed and the internal temperature was 66°, about 3 hrs later.

    Take it out, bring the oven up to 160°, then wrap the thing up as tightly as possible in two layers of foil (to which I added a bit of apple juice for braising, because you know ... pork and apples).

    Back in the oven it went, until a butter knife slid in and out with no resistance. Let it rest for an hour, transferred it to a more suitable container, took two forks, and shredded like my name was Joe Satriani. Once done, I mixed in all the juices from the foil.

    Sauced up a portion with a bacon/jalapeño barbecue sauce I mixed with some apple juice, and hey-presto: a smokey pulled pork salad, served with Bavarian potato salad, and some pickles.

    It was fucking the delicious. Tender, juicy, and the liquid smoke mellowed out perfectly in the long cooking.

    If you have no smoker (or opportunity to smoke on your urban flat balcony), but want a pulled pork sandwich, this is the way.

    • This is the way.palimpsest
    • I like that you refer to it as a saladscarabin
    • Oh, THIS is what you were talking about - haha, I can see why eating all that might've led to a bit of indigestion :)

    Hungry. Late night home.

    I just sliced a load of cheese and dry fried it 'til it starting srisping alongside some herby ham and chunks of bread and then mixed it around the pan and fucked some coarse ground chilli pepper and a tiny smidge of lemon juice over and it and yes, i've had a couple, but omg god damn it tastes so good dipped in indeterminate-import overly-salty harissa with asmall dollop of mayo. omg.

    • i can't read these instructions back too well, but i want another.Nairn

    • hmm... what about the knob of butter? You're in the UK... there is always a knob of butter involved.PonyBoy
    • For once not, haha! but not that it was not considered. Should've gone with a big dollop of slightly-salted butter and an egg or three :)Nairn

    Visited NY last week and went to Peter Luger Steakhouse.
    It was a good steak but not worth the price.

    • How much was it?palimpsest
    • 3x Steak
      1x Salad
      1x Fries
      4x Beer
      2x Prosecco

    • 30$ for 3 beers? Laughs in Czech.palimpsest
    • I've seen that place before (on the internets, obv) - is it any good? I was under the impression "it might've been, but thirty years ago"?Nairn
    • @Nairn its good but overrated. Nothing special, you pay too much for a decent steak.milfhunter
    • I concur. Also, I can't stand how they pre-slice it into those sections. If I'm paying $100 for a steak, I'll take it in 1 piece please.monospaced
    • They have an appetizer on the menu called "onions and tomatoes" and it costs at least $20. It's JUST thick sliced raw onion and tomato. that's it. FUCK thatmonospaced
    • A $10 beer is normal though at a restaurant or bar.monospaced
    • @mono i know about the beer prices being like this everywhere in the city, and that is still fucked up. 3,60 is what you pay in The Netherlands.milfhunter
    • I feel the same way about places like Sparks steak house, they make a killing no pun intended off of tourists falling for that old mob mystique_niko
    • I’ve never been but I assume it’s overpriced and mediocre so I avoid it, but I could be wrong, maybe it’s great..._niko
    • This place is legendary, like it or not. And aren't all steakhouses overpriced?stoplying
    • @stoplying agreed, it had some michelin stars in the past so it is def. good food but again overpriced.milfhunter
    • $30 for beer?!

    Further to the sausage and cheese bruschetta above, if you're in the UK, these are the perfect sausage to use for that recipe:

    https://salsicciamo.com/

    I think UK sausages in general are quite underrrated compared to a lot of continental stuff, but these fuckers here are a good Anglo-Italo hybrid - fresh, and very meaty.

    • That marketing copy on the package is as dire as it is unbelievable. 'I came to the UK just to make sausages!' Uh-huh.Continuity
