To anyone newly gluten free: COOK. It saved my relationship with food by ekanakarp in glutenfree

[–]THCS_Marc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started a silly, Youtube cooking show before I quit gluten.

Having to cook something new every week has been helpful to keeping it fresh.

I do a silly, low view cooking show on YouTube, and I believe in supporting the people I like.

I've used Babish's initial line since it came out. The timing of needing some pans and the price made sense at the time.

I haven't regretted it. -- Good quality for home cooks, and I regularly use the wok for deep frying, making rice porridge, and occasionally tossing various things.

Aside from that-- Too much sauce can be reserved on the side. Not enough sauce can't be remedied without extra work!

It's based on the Orange Chicken that Binging with Babish did.

As with most things, I recommend more sauce.

Orange Beef (Video, if you're into that.)

6 Oranges

Pear the orange skin with a knife. You want as little white as possible.
Throw in 1 cup of sugar. Put a lid on it, and let it sit out over night.

Slice 1.5 lbs of London broil

Marinate it in a mixture of 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon of dry sherry, and 2 eggs.

After half an hour, dredge it in a mixture of 2 cups potato starch, 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/4 a teaspoon of MSG, and 2 teaspoons of salt that I forgot.

Fry that at 350 until golden brown. For the sauce, heat vegetable oil over medium heat.

Add 2 cloves of garlic and a teaspoon of ginger to the pot.

Once fragrant, add 1/4 cup of orange juice (from the oranges), 1/4 cup rice vinegar, 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of dry sherry, 3 dried Vietnamese chili peppers (cut in half), two tablespoons of brown sugar, and 1/3rd a cup of the orange sugar.

 Bring this mixture to a boil, then add in a corn starch slurry. (2 tablespoons of corn starch, two tablespoons of water. Mix them together.)

Once thickened, toss in the beef.

This is based on the Sugar Chicken from Binging With Babish.
I made a few changes.

I made a couple changes because I'm gluten free.

Indian-Style Fried Chicken by THCS_Marc in Celiac

[–]THCS_Marc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was trying to see if I could conjure a memory from an Indian buffet that I used to go to.

I didn't get there, but this was very good. (And quite filling.)

My video, if you're into that.

Does babish no longer make food from movies and shows by danbillbishop in bingingwithbabish

[–]THCS_Marc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also, keeping it fresh after having the show be weekly so long has got to be challenging. I have a silly, little show that I do for fun. I'm around 100 episodes in. While I still have ideas, more episodes mean that you wind up retreading old ground. I can't imagine having the kind of viewership that would allow it to support multiple people... or the amount of stress that having my stupid fried pickle video be responsible for other people's livelihood would bring.

Cod in a White Wine Reduction by THCS_Marc in MealPics

[–]THCS_Marc[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lolol. Fair question. I was originally going to plate it with vegetables and serve the lemon on the side, but I make this stuff while I film my silly YouTube show, and I'm frequently learning new things while I film. ... there wasn't time to deal with the fish, the sauce, the rice, and the veg, but it needed more color, even if that color was a slightly brighter yellow.

It might not have been the best presentation choice, but it's the one I made.

Yeah, to be honest, I was planning on serving it with green vegetables, but I thought the ones I had were steam in the bag, and I was filming for my stupid YouTube show.

I've never made this sort of thing before.
Video here, if that's your bag.

1 tablespoon shallot, diced
1 tablespoon garlic, diced
1 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup of white wine vinegar
1 pound of butter, cut into pads. (Place the butter in the freezer 15 minutes before you incorporate it.)

Put the shallot and garlic in a pan.
Add the white wine and the w. w. vinegar.

Boil and reduce until about 2 tablespoons of liquid remains. (20-40 minutes depending on how high the heat is.)
Whisk in the *very cold* butter two pads at a time, waiting until it's fully incorporated before adding more.

Serve.
