I've tried cooking it and feeding it to the dog, but he loses interest quickly. The steaks still have plenty of fat to cook themselves in. I don't really fry things and if I do I'll use oil. If I had somewhere to donate it to I would. Otherwise it's just a waste of space to store it when I'm really never going to use it.

But all of that is bullshit anyway. No one can get sick from using any kind of pan, no matter what the coating. Keep shivering in fear, faggot.
The plastics are inside all of us and there's nothing we can do to slow it.

You should try it the dutch way (OG grandma style) but you probably feel 'too good' for that

1. Boil 500g kale for 30 mins
2. Use hand blender, shred it to a slurry
2.5 squeeze in cheesecloth and let it steam to become as dry as possible
3. Boil 500+g high starch potatoes (brittle)
4. Let the potatoes steam to make them as dry as possible
5. Mash it together to homogenize it
6. Add lots of vinegar
6.5 let it rest in the fridge overnight
7. Fry it
8. Add fatty meat (like smoked sausage) and extreme amount of gravy
9. Eat it

The side dish is cucumber slices+vinegar (or lemon juice preferably)+sugar, also sat overnight in fridge

Most Dutch people dont even really know how to make it properly anymore. Please excuse this long post, I used AI to translate all the details, because they are important. Save it for a rainy day. You know what you are doing, and you like kale. I think you will appreciate this way of eating it, thats why I wanted to share it. We call it 'stamppot' or basically 'mash'. (Kale, or, 'curly kale', is a traditional powerfood here. We call it ''boerenkool'', i.e. ''farmer's cabbage''. I think we eat more kale than anyone else)

------Dutch grandma’s kale ------

American Grocery Equivalents:

-1 lb (500g) mature curly kale, stems stripped, washed, and chopped.
-1 lb (500g) Russet potatoes (Idaho russets are high starch, low water, dry and floury).
-Standard white distilled vinegar (or apple cider vinegar).
-Salt, black pepper, and whole nutmeg (freshly grated).
-Sausage: A ring of high-grade coarse smoked Polish Kielbasa (natural casing, coarse grind, real beechwood smoke).
-Jus (Gravy): 4 slices of thick-cut smoked bacon (diced) + 1 packet of brown gravy mix.

Side: 1 English cucumber, sliced thin, soaked overnight in equal parts water, white vinegar, and sugar (classic Southern "refrigerator pickles").
Cooking fat: Salted butter

----------
*Throw 1 lb of chopped curly kale into a pot of salted water. Boil it hard for 30 minutes. You want all the raw, bitter, fibrous plant structure completely broken down.
*Wring-Out: Dump the kale into a colander. Press down on it with a ladle or twist it in a clean kitchen towel to wring out every drop of swampy green water.
*Steam-Dry: Toss the wrung-out kale back into the dry, hot pot on low heat for awhile. Let the residual steam evaporate.

Take a stick blender and pulse the cooked kale directly in the pot.
Blending it down creates a fine, uniform vegetable caviar that integrates seamlessly into the potato starch instead of tangling around your fork.er survival manual.
>>
>>22240637
Taters:
*Peel and cube Russets. Boil in heavily salted water until they are tender enough that a butter knife slides through with zero resistance (almost falling apart)
The Golden Rul: Drain 100% of the water. Put the naked potatoes back on the hot burner over low heat with the lid off for a while.
Shake the pot gently. Surface of the potatoes will turn white, dry, and powdery. If you mash wet potatoes, you get glue. If you steam-dry them, you get fluffy clouds.

Assembly:
A lot of modern recipes add warm milk, which dilutes the sharpness.

*Mash the dry potatoes and the fine-ground kale together at a 1:1 ratio by weight.
* Add roughly 1 tablespoon of white vinegar per serving directly into the mash.
(Kale is earthy, sulfurous, and deep; potatoes are pure dense starch. The vinegar electrocutes the starch, cutting straight through the heaviness and waking up the greens. Add enough so it bites, but stop before it turns soupy)

*Grate fresh nutmeg aggressively over the pot. Nutmeg is the signature aroma of authentic Dutch cooking—don't be shy with it. Add salt to taste.


Meat & Gravy:
In this dish, gravy provides moisture; sausage provides fat.
*smoked Kielbasa into a pot of water on low heat (steaming, not boiling) and leave it there for 30–45 minutes to plump up and get completely juicy.

Bacon gravy: Fry diced thick-cut bacon in a skillet until crisp. Deglaze the pan with water, whisk in your brown gravy powder, and simmer until thick, glossy, and savory.

Overnight Chill and fry:
(You do not eat this fresh out of the pot. You put the entire pot of mash in the fridge overnight.
the mash transforms in the cold: the vinegar mellows out, the kale juices penetrate the potato cells, and the starches tighten up into a firm paste.)
>>
>>22238050
woah! nice flip!
>>
>>22240637
Seems like a great deal of work to make kale into nothing but green coloring for the potatoes. What could be left after all that boiling and blending and squeezing and straining?
Still, I have a lot of kale I'm not going to otherwise use. I have one russet and I might make just enough to utilize it. I'm not going to go out of my way to get special Kielbasa though. You're saying some Hillshire Farm won't cut it? And I need to make gravy?

Seems like a big project. But what else am I gonna do?
>>
>>22240643
Next-Day:
Melt a slab of salted butter in a wide cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat.
Drop the cold, firm mash into the sizzling butter. Press it down flat into a giant pancake across the pan.
Leave it completely alone for 15 to 20 minutes.
Do not touch it. Do not stir it.
The starch, butter, and sugars will undergo a massive Maillard reaction, forming a thick, golden-brown, glass-shattering crust on the bottom
Slide it onto a platter, crust-side up.

How to Eat It:
Heap the hot, crusty, vinegar-spiked green mash onto your plate.
Form a crater in the center
Pour the hot bacon gravy directly into the crater.
Lay thick, steaming slices of the smoked sausage across the top.
Serve the cold, crunchy sweet-sour refrigerator pickles on the side to cleanse your palate between bites of rich pork and buttery crust.

An American eating this will immediately understand it: it hits every single note of Southern comfort food and cast-iron diner hash, but executed with the precision of a Dutch winter survival manual.
>>
>>22240647
Okay. Maybe.
>>
>>22240646
Kek yes AI also makes it sound like a bit of a chore. But I wouldnt share it if it wasnt worth it. I make this for foreigners and they are usually in disbelief at how good it is, despite me raping all the ingredients.

Yeah the gravy is essential. For returning 'wetness' to this dry mash. You can also just use butter+water+ a pack of gravy powder. However making it with bacon elevates it to A+

Any sausage is probably fine. Just make sure it's nice and fatty (again, to ''combat'' (complement) the dryness) I'll show a picture if I have one saved
>>
I actually have gravy packets leftover from making meatloaf for someone a couple weeks ago. And I always have bacon. I'll grab a cucumber and another couple potatoes and the best Kielbasa I can find. I'll start it tonight and finish it tomorrow. But I don't expect there will be any fancy Polish rings of sausage to be found around here. Some specialty store in Seattle might have it.
>>
>>22240654
Based. I dont have the picture anymore, but here is the result of the kale rape.


When you mash it with the potatoes, and both the kale and potatoes are dry enough, it will be fluffy and 'bouncy', not like a fuckin swamp (with squish squish sounds).
Then the dryness is offset perfrctly with the gravy. And the vinegar gives it an immensely satisfying umami-like aftertaste thwt will linger in your mouth for the rest od the evening.


Honestly, kale mash with bacon alone is fucking god tier. I often skip the BWC sausage when Im lazy. As long as theres something fatty to go with it.

(It will never get completely dry of course. But the dryness is the most overlooked step. Modernfags have forgotten how to make this and it becomes a soggy mess with large, course kale particles)
>>
>>22240666
That doesn't look right. The immersion blender needs way more liquid to work. That looks like it's already been drained.
>>
>>22240669
Nono, just drain the kale completely, let it steam a while, and go at it with the blender. This one doesnt need liquid. It will become like a slurry yes but all the nutrients are still there. Then, after raping it, let it steam off even more vapor

(A trick is to put the rapeslurry in a nonstick frying pan so you can turn up the heat a little more. I add the vinegar once it is raped)

Pic rel is the finished homogenized mash but its a screenshot of my album on android kek. Hence low res.

>>
>>22240678
I use an immersion blender all the time and this doesn't make sense. Boiled and drained and dried out, steaming kale will not be easily processed using an immersion blender. Maybe a standard food processor would work. If you blend it IN the liquid and then strain it it would be fine.

Maybe I use the wrong word/translation, but this is what I do.
>>
you can probably do it in liquid but I imagine the fine particles will become an even more moist slurry, so make sure to dry it out properly afterwards
>>
To be sure, as you can see, this is done right after boiling it and pouring out the water, so the kale bits are very wet, 'dry' is just relative
>>
I will sleep soon, so if you have some questions just post them and I will check in the morning

I was gonna make a video series about how to make these traditional dutch foods the proper way but couldnt be assed. Maybe some day. I have never met a single person who does it the right way. Forgotten traditions. The ol mash has a bad rep because people dont know how to make it anymore. Do it right and you'll be craving this kale mash every winter.
My grandma had a special mill from the late 19th century for this exact job, called a 'kale mill'

Dude you're a legend kek, your first try is already better than what natives achieve after years of failure. And it's pretty ballin' to go in guns blazing like this on a recipe/meal youve never even seen irl or even heard of before

The potato:kale ratio looks a little low, but when you fry that up and eat it with meat I think you will definitely enjoy it. My friend (46) made this last week and I can already tell i would prefer yours even though the ratio is off. Better mouthfeel and proper acidity goes a long way
(The reasom for making it small and homogeneous is because kale has tons of lignin and cellulose; when you mash it coarse, the mouthfeel is inferior because of the dissonancr between potato and kale, so to speak, and flavors just blend better like this)

For next time, probably double up on them taters, maybe even triple. Youre right it is a lot of steps especially for 1 serving.
It keeps really well in the freezer, so its an excellent comfort meal to make a bunch and save for later. (I usually make ~2 kg total in one go)
Anyway this made me smile Bigly. Props anon
>>
>>22240971
Right on thats wonderful. She is smiling from the beyond and would be 1000% stoked to see what you have done without doubt. If there is a dutch staple, this is it. As we say, eet smakelijk
>back to bed
>>
>>22241028
Thanks. Are you saying it needs more kale or more potato? If I like it I'll make it again. Your original recipe called for 500g of each so I just tried to go 50/50 eyeing them once they were cooked and dried.
>>
>>22241034
Oh, more potato. I can add more tomorrow before I fry it up.
>>
>>22241036
Yep good call I recommend doing that
Man I probably fucked up the ratio, my bad, i just eyeball it too and i focused too much on the method
When I think about it its probably more like 2:1 potato:kale by weight
The kale gets so small after the boil and mince, it feels like weight gets reduced

When I make it that pan is filled to the brim with kale, and Im left with what seems like a tiny amount afterwards.
Fold in some extra potato, dont forget add a little more salt nutmeg and vinegar, and you've taken it to the next level
>>
Yeah 2:1.
>facepalm

Its basically impossible to add too much vinegar btw, the more I add the better it gets, it's the gift that keeps on giving. The potato totally buffers it
>>
Oh and nutmeg became the spice of life, culinary crystal meth, after the east indies company's forays into the .. east. When you think you've added enough, add even more.
Fun fact, when netherlands relinquished NYC to the english it was traded for an island called 'Run' in indonesia. So basically NYC was traded for a bunch of nutmeg trees kek. Just to highlight its importance
Add as much as is feasible to minced meat, cauliflower, kale, red cabbage, yae, even beef, and you are paying homage to your lineage
>>
>>22241083
I totally forgot the nutmeg. I didn't fully read all of the posts before. I probably have some ancient nutmeg powder in the cupboard but I might go get some whole.
Nutmeg is supposed to go in lots of things like Bechamel sauce, but I rarely use it. I do want to make this as authentic as possible.

I don't quite understand the final pan cook though. You just sear the bottom and then plop it over onto a communal serving plate? Or is it one serving? I can form and fry up multiple "loaves" of it. Or I can do it up in one big pan, flip it to brown both sides, and then cut it into wedges/slices and serve it pizza style with the gravy cascading over it and the sausage up against it. If that browning on the bottom is so important it would follow that it would be good on the top as well forming a crust.
>>
In the end it's not very much to work with. Two cups of the clay-like mass at most. A little more with the extra potatoes added tomorrow. I can see making it into 6-7 crab cake-like patties and then pan frying them. Maybe I'll save a little to play around with.

Oh yeah, you can definitely flip it. As long as there's some maillard action going on. You can go ham and go for max crust, not necessary tho. It'll still be pretty loose/fluffy

Usually people just fry x amount of servings in one go and then divide&serve it on individual plates yes. Depends on how hungry I am, ~400g of final product is a good amount per person. It's a pretty fulfilling or hefty meal, so anywhere between 300g and 450g is pretty typical.

>>22241111

The fry-up is pretty much all up to you brotherman. I like the sound of your idea. After all the prep work, this is the part where most freedom is allowed
Enjoy!

>>22241211
It is t b h, kale + potatoes is always a winner. I'm just fully autistic about it, it's fun and rewarding to do it "right".
( of course, even within a region, people will have differing opinions about what is even the right way in the first place. Ultimately, it all turns to shit kek)

The interesting thing, to me, about this way of making it is that it is literally a forgotten art. Youre reaching deep into the late 19th/early 20th century, possibly earlier. I prefer it over the modern way.

I've decided that, later this winter, Im going to make a YT trilogy on how to make 3 dutch staples - this, red cabbage mash, and 'hutspot' (carrots+onion+potato mash). If I dont do it, apparently no-one else will.

Thanks, but that's just what 25 years gets you. I went to chef school immediately after high school and have been working in the industry ever since. After a while you start to be able to 'read the matrix' and can just cook pretty much any recipe and it turns out well.

But still I'd want to try some actual Dutch grandma's version to really know what it's supposed to taste like. The little details are what make each dish unique. And I'm sure with better sausages and gravy and the fresh pickles it'd have been even better.

At least I have something in the arsenal for the next time I get way too much kale. This really was a good use of it. Thanks again.

I'm really happy and glad that you enjoyed it anon. Im a bit, how do you say, gobsmacked, surprised, I'm 100% certain it tastes great. No doubt in my mind. I mean..... you hadnt even heard of this meal before. Sure it's simple - just 2 things mashed together but. i cant even explain the extent to which Dutch people fuck this up despite having eaten it dozens or a hundred times. Im not kidding that it looks genuinely 10/10. You know what's good, so you'll figure out the right acidity or other minor tweaks and stuff. Just wow. It's amazing

That's amazing, your skills are really apparent. I'm not that universally skilled, just an autist with a limited palette so to speak. Congratulations.

One thing I could mention is that the OGs would keep a bottle of plain white vinegar on table, to splash it on as they see fit. (You know better than I, but I've read that vinegar loses some potency etc. as it is heated)

Other than that, I for sure couldn't think of anything, and I really think you're as close as it can get.
I've never had the opportunity to try russet potatoes. The Dutch potato variety used for this meal is ''Eigenheimer''. Perhaps the potato variety will make a very minor difference. But when it comes out this good, you have definitely used the right potato for the job.

Sure, man. I'm up for another challenge. You want some ratatouille or something? I eat salads pretty frequently but I don't always post everything. I just got done making a dish that 90% of the work was a kale recipe. But the sausage and gravy just erases that for you I guess.
My meals are meat heavy, yes, but there's often a vegetable component. I make more broccoli cheese soup than anything else. I just made cabbage soup last thread. Does the inclusion of bacon negate the entire effort?

I made this spinach dip in November. Not everything is all meat all the time. But this thread is more meat themed than usual because of the bi-annual re-up.

No, there's never a day that I don't eat meat. The last time I did was probably eleven years ago when I was vegan for a month for a contest.
I live in a progressive liberal west coast paradise, so many don't eat meat and that's fine. But there's also lots of hunting and fishing around here so you get a lot of meat eating outdoors types. But I really don't think politics has all that much to do with diet.
I think you're making it out like it's strange to eat meat daily. I think it's strange not to. Meat's just in most meals in some form. It's super common I think for people who eat it to eat it daily. I don't eat it for every meal, but easily 4 out of 5.
>>
>>22243876
I didn't fuck either of them up. Everything is perfectly tender and yet not mushy in both dishes. There's no 'wrong'. Any dish is open to interpretation. The eggplant the shopper chose was shitty so I had to toss it. Like I said yesterday, it's probably going into a pasta anyway. And I'm going to put sausage in it too.
I was challenged to make a dish where vegetables were the main component and I made to vegan dishes and they both taste like what they're supposed to taste like. I don't much care for either one myself, but they've always been popular with whomever I've served them to over the years.
