Use canned. For fresh you need to find a very very ripe pineapple that isn't browned anywhere, cut it to even slices and core the slices, the middle part doesn't bake into softness. Canned gives you all that.

>>17171113
Don't do it! Don't use canned! It will suffer!

The pineapples sold in stores are usually pretty ripe!

U cut off the outside and most of the little thorn-holes, then u cut around the cylindrical central core to divide it into maybe 4-5 pieces - then u cut those into slices.

Anyone here have a good recommendation for a tried-and-true barszcz (Polish/Russian/Ukrainian beet soup) recipe?

I am planning a Polish-style Wigilia dinner and am hard-pressed to find a recipe that I know will taste good (I have never made barszcz before). Moreover, they keep recommending some weird forest mushrooms for the barszcz, and the only viable substitute (dried porcini mushrooms) exceeds my dinner budget. Can I just omit the porcini mushrooms?

And mlinci as a side are kind of like dried out sheets of bread dough that you rehydrate in boiling water just for a minute, drain, then you dip them in the fat that comes from the roasting. Pic related.
This makes for a really delicious meal. Our food is really not great, probably below average, but this is one of the very, very few things that are amazing and I can't believe I haven't seen anyone else eat this outside of Slovenia.

It's too late anon. Just buy a barszcz concentrate/concentrated betroot juice/whatever and dilute it with water, it shoudl be acceptable.

If you want to make real barszcz next year you have to make your own pickled beetroots about 14-7 days before cooking (don't cook barszcz on Christmas Eve, do it one or two days before). When you get to cooking take about 0,75-1kg of beetroots for every liter of water, one carrot, one parsley, half or one celery root, one apple, water from porcini mushrooms (don't skip them, Christmas Eve in Poland is meatless so you need every source of umami you can get, and you only add water because you use mushrooms to make uszka dumplings with sauerkraut or just sauerkraut with mushrooms), add a few garlic cloves, some bay leaves, allspice, grains of bell pepper, boil it, decrease heat and let to simmer for about 1,5 hours, then you decrease heat even further (but not so much that it will go cold), add pickled beetroot juice (you don't want to boil it to not kill the good bacteria), juice of half of lemon and 2-3 tbsp of vinegar. Add salt and pepper (but if you pickled beetroots with enough garlic then it should be spicy enough without the need to add additional pepper), you can also experiment with whatever you want, this year I added some miso paste for more umami and also one stick of cinamon.

[Anonymous No.17173522]

>>17172065
I think fresh is good if you are good at picking pineapples and are skilled at skinning/coring them (it can be a bit tricky to get a clean cut if you're unfamiliar with it). The texture of fresh cooked down will be slightly nicer. As other anons pointed out, canned offers consistency and also fairly good results. I'd go with fresh personally if I could easily get a pineapple, but I'd also keep a can on hand just in case.

something I made last night, tho I'm not Mexican, I traveled alot in my teens there for Dad's work, and basically spent every 3rd week there on a long weekend. Without fail, I always had the Sopa Tortilla Azteca at the local VIPS on every trip I slowly duplicated the recipe over the years. I have my black and crisp fried ancho pepper and pork rind garnish, along with the crema, lime and cilantro. My broth is clear chicken stock with whole tomatoes, which is how they did it. Pressure cooker makes the best stock.

>Pineapple upside down cake. Question: do you use a fresh pineapple or canned? I thought fresh would be best, but all the recipes say canned
Canned pineapple, historically for this recipe, was not packed in pineapple juice, but rather a sweetened sugar syrup, so the caramelization was greater. Nowadays you want canned in juice to make this cake, because you will be using the pineapple juice from the can as your liquid with the yellow cake mix. It makes the cake more pineappley, moisture, and a denser texture.
So, your answer is to use canned packed in juice, not fresh. There is a enzyme in fresh juice that hasn't been killed in pastuerization. This enzyme even keeps Jello from setting up, as it breaks down the protein.

Real butter, layers on thick in the bottom of pan and partially up the sides. Sprinkle a thick layer of dark(!) brown sugar to cover the butter.
lay down your rings edge to edge, starting at corners, lay down the cherries into the middles ane between rings. Fill in other gaps with some chopped pecans too, as that's my family's favorite, since they get praline like toasted and sugary. Make your cake batter per the package directions. I prefer yellow cake mix and try to find the pudding in the mix brand, using the can juice as the liquid/water in the directions. I usually bake in a glass pyrex to be sure I can see the brown sugar has finished bubbling when I rest it after baking, before the big flip.
Good luck! Everyone loves this dessert.

wrapping a roast in caul fat (from around the stomach) is an old timey butcher trick. Yea, it's rare in the US. You have to ask your butcher for it. It is mostly used for stuffed leaner roasts to hold it together in lieu of it's own fat cap, such as a pork loin always has. So, think of a lean eye roast requiring it more than a pork roast that doesn't need it's natural fat cap removed in the first place.

Yeah I’m doing OMAD, eating about 1000 calories a day (and 1800 on “cheat” days). It’s a pretty heavy caloric deficit but my weight ballooned during covid from like 180 to 245. Down to 210 now and hoping to hit 180 by late spring. I basically cut out carbs, eating meat and vegetables almost exclusively and cutting out snacking entirely. My calorie deficit is unhealthy though. A more responsible person would do something like a 500 cal deficit compared to the 1000 I’m doing, but I find it very motivating to watch the weight slide off me and my energy levels increase day by day. I also noticed I no longer crave sugar or fried foods etc now that they’re out of my system.

Didn't see this thread and posted in the other, so reposting here. They don't celebrate Christmas where I'm from, but I love the atmosphere of the holiday so I decided to make a German style Christmas dinner just for myself. I made braised and then roasted pork knuckle and gravy (geschmorte schweinshaxe), potato salad with bacon, red onions, scallions and dill, and sauerkraut with apples and onions cooked in cider. Everything turned out delicious and my place smells like a Christmas market in Germany, so I'm pretty stoked. Also made myself a nice batch of hot spiced cider.

My grandfather took us all on a cruise ship to Alaska to celebrate my Bar Mitzvah which sounds nice - but my sister got a trip to Israel and got to celebrate her Bat Mitzvah in Israel atop Mount Masada.

Yes, but now suddenly you have a group of people who hate you that you can't blend in with, and the Europeans are so cucked that they will side with Muslims over Jews because;
"They're brown

Look at Sweden, with Jews fleeing Stockholm because of the rapid rise of anti-semitism, and consider that a Muslim can rape women there and get away with community service. Europe is now filled with untouchable anti-semites.
