@linguafood

wonder what one might make with pig uteri.

I have seen it stir-fried at Chinese places (similar to intestines) or as “beer snacks” in Vietnamese places (boiled and cut up)

I thought it might be used as ‘calamari’.

Mango and cardamom yogurt in Ontario. I like it.

I found this at Farm Boy. Love Chuck Hughes and love White Balsamic. $11.99 CAD

My White Balsamic Vinegar

I picked up a pack of this IG and TikTok () famous sweet potato bread at a local Korean market.

They are frozen and you heat them up in the oven or the air fryer. It’s pretty good. It had a crispy crust with a chewy mochi like layer and sweet potato in the center. The bottom came out a little soggy in the air fryer, I might try putting it on a rack next time.

How did you even know what it was? Doesn’t it fall under the category, don’t ask, you’ll enjoy it better? I had to look around at recipes… there is great effort taken to remove off flavors and textures, it appears. Also found related recipes for the fallopian tubes.

Saw these at our Giant. Not sure how I would use them — has anyone here seen these / tried them?

[bbqboy]

Could someone tell me what this is and how it is used?

[linguafood (Natascha)]

I can’t, but wiki can:

Kweichow Moutai

[mts]

What is in it that gives it a ‘loooong shelf life’?

[linguafood (Natascha)]

From the ingredients list, at least for the liquid ginger: organic ginger, organic spirit vinegar, water, sea salt, xanthan gum.

Mm-mm-gooooood

[linguafood (Natascha)]

Saw this at Wegmans today… not familiar with the brand, but the flavor sounds intriguing.

Has anyone tried it? I was tempted but we already have ice cream at home

@linguafood

we already have ice cream at home

Srsly?

[linguafood (Natascha)]

Yeah. It’s not a primary food source for us ;-), and we already have a big ole tubba Tillamook Hazelnut Chocolate taking up a lot of space in our top freezer.

Also, not sure how heavy it is on the cardamom, which is why I was hoping someone else had tried it

It seems to me that pigs are the poster animal for nose to tail cooking.

[linguafood (Natascha)]

Pigs is good eats, and if you’re going to slaughter an animal for consumption, you might as well use all of it.

[Meekah]

I’ve never thought about cardamom in ice cream green tea and ginger is as exotic as I’ve gotten.

[linguafood (Natascha)]

It was the pistachio that caught my eye, of course! And the kulfi. The cardamom was kind of an afterthought.

[Meekah]

I love pistachio ice cream. I’ve been negligent in checking for new brands.

[shrinkrap]

@Meekah

pistachio ice cream

It seems so different from what was my father’s favorite in the 60-'s-70’s, or maybe it just seems so much more special. I mostly just remember it being green.

With the growing South Asian, Turkish and Persian population in Canada,and assimilation, the regular grocery stores stock more interesting ice cream and frozen treat options lately.

Also, frozen mochi and kulfi.
