starsapart Posted November 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Last night, I made these tacos for dinner, with a few modifications...Replaced corn tortillas with flour Not a fan of iceberg lettuce, so subbed in shredded cabbage No hot sauce in the house, so I used some cayenne in the marinade instead Used the broiler instead of the grillThe result: Very tasty tacos! Might have been better with sweeter oranges (these were a bit tart, probably because of where we are in the season) and a bit more spice in the marinade.... next time, adding a bit of cumin and more cayenne. Still, nom nom nom! The pork came out super tender and juicy, and I gobbled up these little tacos with great joy. Thanks again for helping me when I'm hurt, Yoshi!!!!!! 6 Quote current challenge challenge archive: 19 | 18 | 17 | 16 | 15 | 14 | 13 | 12 | 11 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 instagram | goodreads "Let us read, and let us dance; these two amusements will never do any harm to the world." - Voltaire Link to comment
starsapart Posted November 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Also: thanks, everyone, for the wishes for speedy recovery! I want to believe good nerd vibes are helping me out. I'm still pretty miserable, but the doctor made me super happy by saying I don't need surgery, so I should be back up and being my usual crazy self by the new year. Keep sending healthy vibes my way, okay? The next few weeks are really going to hurt. 12 Quote current challenge challenge archive: 19 | 18 | 17 | 16 | 15 | 14 | 13 | 12 | 11 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 instagram | goodreads "Let us read, and let us dance; these two amusements will never do any harm to the world." - Voltaire Link to comment

Fayrn Posted November 28, 2015 Report Share Posted November 28, 2015 Empty a 12-ounce bag of fresh or frozen cranberries into a saucepan and transfer ½ cup to a small bowl. Add 1 cup sugar, 1 strip orange or lemon zest and 2 tablespoons water to the pan and cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the cranberries are soft, about 10 minutes. Increase the heat to medium and cook until the cranberries burst, about 12 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the reserved cranberries. Add sugar, salt and pepper to taste and cool to room temperature before serving *I also added a splash of pure orange juice. My Review: Great! While it was ok with the turkey it was GREAT with ice cream.Taste Tester: "It's good" as he helped himself to heaping second and third portions during dinner. 6 Quote Fayrn Mermaid Assassin Lv 7 | STR 9.75 | DEX 10.5 | STA 13.5 | CON 15 | WIS 11.75 | CHA 14.25 | Current Challenge Past Challenges: {1st}{2nd}{3rd}{4th}{5th}{6th} Character Profile Books Read 20.94% 20.94% Money Saved 25% 25% Link to comment

Trewest Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 yoshi challenge for me! Shitake mushroom and assorted meat hot pot.It was my first time trying to hot pot at home and it was without a doubt a miserable failure lol.Had the broth boiling fine, added the food stuffs (boy choy, shittake mushrooms which take forever to cook, sliced chicken, slided beef, little shrimp, and for some godforsaken reason I even tried tofu)No one ended up poisoned but it tasted like boiled leather and the tofu was disgusting. The only ingredient I ended up liking was ironically the mushrooms. I think I'll leave hot pot food prep to someone who knows how to do it properly. Googling a how to guide wasn't enough for me to pull this off successfully. Also, I nearly forgot to take a picture of it at all and thus the shitty quality pic you get to see. But at least my little serving bowls are cute right? 2 Quote "What doesn't kill me better start running", level 7 Furyan Assassin My Journey From Fat to Fit: 1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9|10|11|12|13|CURRENT A proud member of the Champion House; Targaryen (Assassin's mini), Hufflepuff bravery is forgetting to be afraid because the thing is so important that the risk doesn't even matter (Assassin's mini) , Hellfire Club represent!

starsapart Posted December 4, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 Everyone has a recipe fail sometimes. I tried okonomiyaki from scratch a few weeks ago and had to throw out the results, I WAS SO MAD. But you did it and that's what matters.

dancezwithkittehz Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 I bet hot pot could be a challenging thing to get down right the first time (and okonomiyaki...I've failed those too. Wheeeee.) I'm glad the mushrooms were at least edible!! Kitchen fails are a learning experience or something.... >.< (Also, I think this should actually go in the level 5 thread!!) 2 Quote Assassin extraordinaire!!

I tried okonomiyaki from scratch a few weeks ago and had to throw out the results, I WAS SO MAD. But you did it and that's what matters. Nice work! Oh yes, there have been a few times I've tried a new recipe and the husband will come home to me saying 'we're ording pizza'. He knows better than to question the smell of something burnt/fouled in some way. I bet hot pot could be a challenging thing to get down right the first time (and okonomiyaki...I've failed those too.
