Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from November 8, 2019 Favoriting

Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

@Rich in Washington:
Following recipes is a valuable thing to do the first time through, just to get an idea what the recipe writer intended.

One of the most ridiculous things you see on the Internet is a posted recipe, followed by comments talking about how, the first time they tried the recipe posted, they:

- Substituted chicken for the beef liver

- replaced the butter with margarine

- used catsup instead of tomato paste

...and then they comment that the result didn't really taste good, it's a terrible recipe.

We're fortunate to now have in my town a Halal butcher/grocer who also makes amazing biriyanis and Pakistan style Indian dishes. I might have to get something on the way home, now that I'm reading those mouthwatering recipe links.

I really love spicy food, but since we had a five-year-old land in our kitchen, we've had to tone in down.

@Jeff: living at my brother's place, I have to get really creative when I cook.They have no fresh veggies, or herbs, or any sauces (thankfully I brought my curries and dried ghost pepper flakes. I feel like I'm in one of those cooking show challenges for every meal. It's weird that people don't cook, and only have food delivered or eat frozen, and have white bread tastes....

@northguineahills: Oh, sure, if you don't have the luxury of having all the theoretically called for ingredients to hand, it's innovation time right from the start!

I'm a big fan of improvisational cooking, but within reason. I think if you know how spices, herbs, oils work with one another and what goes with what meats, vegetables, etc., you can really do a lot with what's on hand.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 2:30pm
Rich in Washington:

I'm also a fan of a great no-cookbook cookbook Jam Today, by Tod Davies. They're really anecdotal chapters about cooking dishes in an improvisational way. It's almost food porn.

@Jeff Moore: my sometimes frustration with recipes is that I invariably don't have one or more ingredients that could be considered relatively unimportant to the dish, in my opinion. But yeah, some of those substitutions you mentioned are pretty bad.

Oh sure. Once people (better cooks than I am – like the roomie I'm privileged to get a lot of meals from, my spouse Kathryn) get that feel for how it all works, their winging it tastes better than other people's not-winging-it.

But... there are definitely times when naive substitutions can eff things up. For instance, in the realm of cocktails (something I'm better at making than actual food), I've spent some time optimizing a variation on the classic Aviation which I've taken to calling the Aerodrome. In my recipe, I specify which gin is to be used (because in this context, the balance of botanicals and even somehow the apparent *texture* of Tanqueray seem to make it meld better with the rest of the drink than other gins I tried). Someone might choose to substitute a different gin without ever tasting the drink made exactly as written. That someone would be wrong.
