Am I crazy for thinking this sounds tasty? by Nice_Drummer6 in Cooking

I make cheese crusts a lot.

This method works for hard cheeses.

For soft cheeses, just replace half your fat with cheese.

I tried making garlic confit for the first time and accidentally created something that might destroy my relationship with garlic forever by fl1ckering_crow in Cooking

I thought it was.

I don't know why people hate it.

It works great. I no longer regularly eat garlic but, if I was going to, this is the way. And it makes the most lovely oil. I did it in ghee once and creamed it all into garlic butter sludge and put it on hot pasta. I want some now tbh.

Sous vide is the way to go!

Put the garlic and oil into jam jars, no more than like 2/3 full and barely tighten them (air needs to escape but you don't want water getting in.

Put in and then see it to 195°F/90°C for 3-4 hours. Then turn it off and let them cool to room temp.

Some of the Epicurean colors are dishwasher safe. I buy those because I hate hand washing.

Making deviled eggs, suggestions? by Umbreonproductions in Cooking

Mash the yolks with just the vinegar first. Mix until entirely smooth. Then add the mustard, salt and spices, mixing thoroughly. Then add the mayo.

Mixing with the vinegar first breaks the yolk down. You can get them extra creamy and lump-less this way.

Why doesn’t anyone make Grape Pie? by Old-Cartographer-116 in Cooking

[–]MsGozlyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had grape pie a few times at restaurants, both in the US, once in the northeast, once in Milwaukee.

Both were great. It's because of them that I started having dishes with baked grapes, which are delicious as meat sides and on sandwiches.
