>ups your gravy/meat stew 3 notches
>>21582551Does it?
>>21582551>add 1% too much >dish ruined
>>21582554I always put in exactly three (3)
>>21582551Grandmothercore
>yfw everyone's about to start eating and you realise you forgot to fish out the cloves
>>21582556base grandma
>>21582595The worst part about Indian food is biting into whole spices. Cloves are the worst for this.I don't get why they can't be bothered to take them out.
>>21582615i just put the spices in a reusable teabag and remove it once the dish is done

>>21582595>>21582615You're supposed to check what you're putting on the fork before inserting in your mouth
>>21582695In the US it's generally the job of the cook to make sure that everything they're serving is edible. I know it's different in different parts of the world but we don't check our fork before every single bite here
>>21582595My mom ALWAYS left the allspice and bay leaves in the soup so I've been trained my whole life>>21582706They're edible though. Just not very pleasant.
>>21582595Just use a mestle and portar wtf
>>21582815>grinding clovesRetard alert
>>21582595>>21582615pussiesyou eat exclusively boneless fish too?
>>21582589Grandmama always so smart.
>>21583230does fish have bones in random places each time and you won't know where they are until you bite into one?
>>21582595I was eating a sauce with cloves today, which during eating I prompty moved to the side of the bowl. The sauce was really good so I licked all of it from the bowl only at the end to find out that I ate the cloves too. Somehow didn't even feel them at all.
>>21583258unless you exclusively eat canned, tendies, fillets and steaks, yesyou ever had like a nice fish gumbo with everything chopped up into chunks and covered in sauce? there's every chance you can be ambushed by a fishbone in a bowl of those
>>21583208Ah fuck good point
>>21583261kek
>>21582551The only reason I have this in my kitchen is lemon pigs kek
>>21582551These were called for in a recipe for mulled wine. Haven’t encountered too many other recipes that call upon their inclusion.
>>21582595>>21582615You know they sell ground cloves.
>>21583350>>21583208
>>21583261you know they're poisonous right? you need to have your stomach pumped
>>21583364Sure, in the same way that apple seeds contain cyanide
I swear I can't detect spices at all. People act like cloves are overpowering or something but I can eat a spoonful of them whole and not taste it.
>>21583379your cloves are old and stale or you have covid or you're a smoker or you're lying
>>21583389I don't smoke, had covid like 5 years ago and I think my cloves were bought like 10 years ago.
>>21583393If both your maladies aligned they would be old enough to suck your toes.

I just read that Djarum Blacks are still made with whole cloves in Indonesia where they're from, can anyone confirm this? The last time I bought Blacks at a tobacco shop in the states they were tobacco cigarettes peppered with cloves, not the cigarettes stuffed with full cloves like I remembered from when I was younger. I'd like to order an Indonesian pack of them sometime but would like some confirmation if someone can take a photo of the tip of one of them to make sure
>>21583550i bought some in ecuador in 2016, they reminded me of the djarum black you used to be able to buy before 2009, cant say if they are exactly the same but they did crackle as they burned
>>21583372It's fine, just smoke some cigarettes
>>21582551star anise too
>>21582595I use a cone coffee filter needle and string to make a pouch for my herbs. I fill the filter fold it in on itself and do a pillow stitch on the top. It allows the herbs/spices to permeate the broth/base and remove it without having to pick them out for gravy from the roast liquid. It's far from an original idea but it really saves time and straining.
>>21583766That is a good trick
>>21583261What sort of a bottom dweller licks their plate?
>>21582551clove is like cumin, sage, and nutmeg. it's delicious when barely used and repulsive when overused. these are all spices that nobody should ever say "ooo I love the clove/cumin/sage/nutmeg in this", because that means you've used too much. use just enough to add some magic without drawing any attention to itself
>>21584492The sauce was too good, you wouldn't get it
>>21584492What's wrong, too much pride to lick your plate clean? Too embarrassed to act how you want in your own home? Are you shamed by the sight of your own naked body? Must you pray the rosary when you touch your own penis in the restroom?
Cloves are good with red meat. Im making chicken pot pie rn and gonna try putting in some powdered ginger, i think thatll add a nice note.
>>21582551These are great for chewing on while dui
>>21582595sachet
>>21582635Wastage.
