Why lettuce and not cabbage though? Hot lettuce isnt really that appealing. Hot cabbage on the other hand is great. Plus Asians love cabbage
>>
>>21682340
Lettuce is just Asian for Bok Choy, it's all the same

Lettuce is just water, nutritionally.
Ramen noodles are unhealthy already.

>>21682275
He's right
>>21682353
So you don't speak English, got it. Bok choy will never be lettuce. Only nobodies would see it as such. Never the same

hey fag
not him but hot lettuce is good, the ribs and veins stay crisp and the greens soften. you add it at the end ad let it wilt in the broth like soft herbs, imparts a nice fresh flavor, you can also make cold pickled lettuce which is really good in noodle soups, any lettuce works. young mustard greens are nice too
>>
>>21683488
yeah but you're paying 0.5$ per kilo for water

Hot lettuce isn't good

Okay joke aside, any good polenta recipes?

It was the one thing I wanted to try but didnt in italy. Pic is something I did eat.
>>
>>21683488
When I was a kid my dad owned a restaurant and it was huge, like half a city block huge
The main dining hall had about a 175 person capacity, the party room could hold over 400 people they rented it out for weddings and hosted local bands and had antique auctions and shit
It also had a private dining room in the wine cellar that could hold about 16 people
It even had a ballroom but we never got it restored
The place was built by a railroad tycoon in the 1800s and it was the first major stop heading west past the Mississippi
Anyway the point is they had to prep huge amounts of ceasar salad and they always had a little left over every service and it would get wilty
Instead of throwing it out my dad sauteed the leftover ceasar and other salads with a little ham and make little quiches for the lunch crowd
My mom was a postgrad student and my dad just got his green card and they went to the bank and were like yeah can we get two mortgages, one for a house and one for a 19th-century rail baron estate and the bank was like sure you seem nice
The 80s were wild
>>
>>21683508
I like to make a loose polenta and serve it under sausage and peppers with a little tomato
If you want more variety instead of sausage you could use shrimp, cod, halibut, hell, even sardines or eggs it's basically Italian-themed shrimp and grits

You just solved snap.

Ayyy cornmeal anon, I think you posted your cornbread recipe before and I made some, was tasty (thanks!)

you can't stop someone from being an alcoholic. even if you locked them in a padded room at that stage they'd die from withdrawal. severe alcoholics have to willingly go to rehab.

You don't need 3 shades of brown sugar, just have white sugar and a jar of molasses and mix as needed.

Can you post the recipe?

This is what I had saved, I think it was OP’s

5 tablespoons butter, softened
1/4 cup masa harina flour
1/3 cup sugar (70g) or u can use 100g honey
2 cups corn kernels (fresh or frozen, thawed)
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon milk

steps:
in a small bowl, mix butter, masa and sugar with mixer until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
blend 1/2 the corn kernels with the water in a blender until smooth.
combine with margarine mixture, stirring well.
add the remaining corn, cornmeal, baking powder, salt and milk.
bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil.
pour the mixture into an 8-inch baking dish.
cover with plastic wrap and set atop the saucepan of boiling water.
Keep pan tightly wrapped and steam for 50 minutes to 1 hour.
Check water level often, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
I have also made this in the oven, setting the pan in a water bath.

I learned this with steel cut oats. Put them into a blender and turn them into a powder. Add to cold water and boil. A small amount will thicken to a nice poridge. Add protein powder or fruit or whatever. Enjoy the farts for the rest of the day.

You just made Polenta, from the pic seems too much watery, just an advice cook it a little more but if you like it mushy no probs
>>21683508
Well in italy we just change the type of Flour to use, we have White Polenta, yellow (the classic) and brown(whole what) polenta, the cooking is the usual you just put water and flour and then stir without making it stick and try to remove clots and lumps.
Then we always add something like my mother love to put Gorgonzola inside when it's hot (Blue cheese) other people I heard they put Taleggio inside.
My favorite is making a sauce usually I love to make Sausages and mushrooms cooked in tomato sauce, then after is ready we just put it on the polenta and eat it, but usually is always like this.
>Lard slices put on top of the Polenta and wait to melt.
>Mushrooms just plain added to the polenta
>Mushroom gravy (white sauce)
>Mushroom red sauce
>Sausages
>sausages with red sauce
>Bolognese
>Ragu di Costine (Rib red sauce)
>Ribs
>Various cheeses
>Meatballs and red sauce
as you see in Italy we use a lot of ingridients for pasta or generally normal condiments but is always prepared on the side and it's simple.

Modern banks giving loans to anybody but natural citizens is perfectly normal to this day. Its why we need to expel the bankers
