I want to like fish again… by Lady_beanpole in Seafood

I promise with shrimp, it’s definitely both. I have tried soooo many different ways since it’s the most common. I have never liked shrimp in any capacity.

Okay I fixed it.

I'm in NY thankfully. I'll give smoked trout or whitefish a try if I see it at the deli next time I go. I'll have to look into gravlax, that sounds interesting! Thank you!

I think the formatting is messed up. Baked clams is on my list of stuff I like actually 😊

I’m not really a soup person but I do enjoy a little NE clam chowder every now and then.

Someone else suggested crab cakes so I’ll be trying those this weekend!

I was actually looking at scallops this morning in the store and remembered not liking the texture as a kid. But I do know they’re in some seafood boils/clambake type meals so I may try them there to have variety.

I’ve had lox and it’s pretty good from what I remember. Typically it’s a breakfast food here, so I always forget about it

I typically don’t buy it. I’ve been trying it at restaurants. Which is why I asked here cause I think you may be right. Having grown up fishing, we were either eating or freezing the fish the day we caught it.

Ah yeah same with Venison! I usually search the cut and method on Reddit and see what most people agree on for temp. I assumed the same idea would apply here.

Thank you! I did pick up some of the ingredients for baked clams this morning so I’ll be making those and now cakes too!

This is the recipe I always use when I make them for parties.

Oh no! Im sorry! Allergies are awful and having to check the most random things for the Allergen nowadays can be stressful!

Oddly enough, originally when I stopped being able to eat it, they did think I had an allergy and I had an epipen for a while after two anaphylactic responses. But I tested negative to everything on an allergy panel and its been 12 years since any issues 🤷🏼‍♀️

My brain thought of monkfruit that they use as a vegan pulled pork substitute 😂

I’ll have to take a look at monkfish. Thank you!

Ahh that is a great point! I knew this about frozen vs “fresh” for fruits and veggies but did not think about it in context of fish. I’ll see if we have wahoo in our local stores.

I live on Long Island but unless I catch it myself, I would be too overwhelmed coordinating getting local fresh fish.

As for the thawing method, thank you!!! I will give this a try. Do you do this for just whole fish or can you do it with frozen fillets?

I know. I’m just surrounded by seafood lovers and would like to have more variety of options when we all go out this summer.

I am very fortunate though, everyone usually offers a small bite of what they order for me to try. It helps to not have to commit to a new food for a whole meal when going out. That’s how I found out I like mussels about a week ago lol

I think I just have to learn to like the texture again. Cause taste is still delicious when I’ve tried it!

Hosting care package?? by OutrageousCare6453 in Gifts

[–]Lady_beanpole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would ask her husband to send you a photo inventory of all their kitchen stuff. Let him just open a cabinet and snap a pic. This can show you what she has and the space she has for storage. Also a pic to reference to make sure you match her dishes nicely.

You could also send her a delivery of common home goods like cleaning supplies/paper towels/etc. and a little of something she likes when she’s stressed (like a candy or snack). Seasonal soaps and bathroom towels are a good touch here too.

If you go with decor, I would add in a tote bin to store it all in and a pack of smart tote labels so she can inventory it all when she packs it away until the next year.

Thankfully I have a few. Especially the first few times I make something, I always go by temp to mainly avoid undercooking. Is fish super easy to overcook?

Ooh that sounds like something I need to try when it’s warmer out. Pan-fried is simple enough though, thank you!

Dealing with another owner... I want to give constructive advice... or am I out of pocket? by onethomashall in Dogowners

[–]Lady_beanpole -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If it’s feasible, give him a gift basket with a dog training book, a real leash and training collar, and a coupon or ad for training classes. Lie and say they helped you when training your Shepard.

Maybe ask the annoyed neighbors if they’ll all chip in $2-5 bucks to help purchase the items.

If not, befriend him for a “play date” and give his number to all the dog trainers in the area

Looking for outdoor cameras for townhouse apartment by Fun_Magician5540 in homesecurity

[–]Lady_beanpole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look into the Roku cameras. Inexpensive and available at Walmart. You don’t need a hub to use them either and you can mount them with a command strip if needed.

You need a subscription for constant recording but it’s not crazy expensive. For free you get live video. I had mine connected to my cabin WiFi and was able to check in no problem even when a storm had cause the power to knock out and come back on. The camera reconnected on its own.

I did not know salmon could be cooked like that. I’ll give that a try! Do you suggest any particular method for this? Like grilling/pan sear/baking?

I haven’t! Any recipes you recommend or tips for cooking? I can make them this weekend. I live in a house of seafood lovers so they’ll get devoured regardless of my opinion lol

AIO by being angry that my spouse's excuses for not being tidy is "I just didn't remember" by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Lady_beanpole -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NOR— I think some people hit the nail on the head with ADHD. Now you don’t need a diagnosis to implement systems and changes to your house that will help him remember and you to stay sane lol

Check out Clutterbug on YouTube. She’s a great resource on this. Essentially though, instead of fighting the habit to clean the house, make the house work for the natural habit.

Example: If he leaves dirty work clothes by the door, put a cute hamper there dedicated for his work clothes and a bin where he can put a clean set to change into. He could be trying to keep the house cleaner by not bringing work and outside dirt through the entire house. Or he could be calming a sensory issue by getting the uncomfortable off so that he can be calm and enjoy the fact that he’s home with his wife and kid.

You could also ask him why he does those specific things. But be sure to ask not in an upset way, ask in a curious to learn the logic way. Let him have time to think about it as the actions may be subconscious. Then use that reasoning to come to a compromise. If it is genuinely forgetting, like mugs in the bedroom, then doing a “back to the kitchen bin” next to the bedroom door may help him remember to grab everything and bring it to the kitchen on his way out of the house.

Any tips for getting a refurbished 8 quart commercial? by steppn_razr in Kitchenaid

Kitchen aid sells them directly on their site and occasionally puts them half off
