HSR Cooking Headcanons!
found a big document of these i never finished but i think they're fun. doesn't include everyone but a vast majority of Belobog+Luofu characters
Trailblazer - not so great with a stove. Pom-Pom has PTSD flashbacks when they offer to help prepare meals and the Trailblazer is thusly shooed from the premises. they're used to foraging snacks and treasures in the trash anyway
March 7th - ADHD disaster. she can whip up desserts mostly but the kitchen looks like a tornado happened afterwards and she'll rope someone into helping
Dan Heng - this boy grew up in a prison and then spent his adult life on the run from his murderous ex, when did he have time to learn to cook? naw, if he's not on the Express it's takeout and fast food for this poor meow meow
Pom-Pom - the esteemed head chef of the Astral Express. they are the ruler of their kitchen and no recipe is beyond their grasp. you might wonder how they can reach the counters and grip utensils when they are so small and bunny-like but Pom-Pom is very good at what they do, so you don't have to worry at all!
Welt Yang - he's an ok cook, like many dads, but he's got a tendency to lean on parental shortcuts like frozen French fries or chicken nuggets (not that anyone ever complains about this)
Himeko - she's best left to her coffee brewing, let's just put it that way.
Kafka - also a disaster, but she has little interest in cooking for herself. this is also the reason the trailblazer can't cook - she wasn't able to teach them
Silver Wolf - no interest in cooking beyond TV meals or reheating leftovers. takeout, gamer supps and snackies take priority 
Blade - somewhere in his muddied floodwaters of memory there's the capability to cook, but it comes and goes and the pain in his hands make it difficult to grip utensils and other implements with the fine motor movements required to chop and whisk and flip. He used to cook for his husband occasionally despite Dan Feng having a personal chef as high elder
Gepard - he does his best… things like breakfast eggs, toast, sausage, noodles, these are easy to accomplish. anything too fancy is a step too far. he's really too busy to practice.
Serval - generally competent. she had to learn to feed herself after getting kicked out of the architects and staying on her own. she's adventurous, always trying new flavor combinations and changing recipes for fun
Lynx - a true outdoorswoman, knows how to forage and trap game and cooks a mean stew. it's unconventional fare, though, and not to everyone's sensibilities. 
Pela - a good cook. sticks to the recipes religiously, and very good at baking because of her precision
Natasha - "knows" how to cook but while she's great at the chemistry behind making medicines, food takes a backseat. grin and bear it if she asks you to try something she made, you don't want to make her sad. she tried really hard for you after all.
Hook - isn't allowed to cook without supervision but she makes an enthusiastic sous chef! helps Dad make dinner and sets a lovely table
Seele - abysmal but I can see her being interested in improving in order to cook something nice for Bronya. when asked why she's suddenly interested in learning, however, the lady doth protest too much. you don't question it further though because you don't want her to make you a knuckle sandwich.
Sampo - unfortunately my own biases cloud my judgement here because I love a man that can cook. but Sampo does seem like the sort of guy who operates on comedy law and that's something I am familiar with. option 1: he closes the door to the kitchen and refuses anyone's help. there's an unholy racket, a cloud of black smoke, some coughing, a Wilhelm scream, and then a few bars of whistling. when he emerges, it's with a pristine plate of gorgeously prepared braised meat and carmelized vegetables with delicate garnish. option 2: he puts on a bit of a show. it's like that cooking porn anime, and onlookers find they have to look away periodically or loosen a tie to keep themselves in check. finally, when he lifts the lid over the plate… the censorship committee has ordered it pixelated so it can still air in the same time slot. (both of these scenarios happen within the same week)
Bronya - she's too busy! she's always working or training or sleeping. luckily, Seele is hard at work learning to cook for her wife hard-working friend
Qingque - Maybe instant noodles, maybe the Xianzhou equivalent of box Mac and cheese. Otherwise she's patronizing the food spots in Aurum Alley and getting takeout ordered to her desk so she can be seen working through lunch (she's not actually working tho)
Fu Xuan - she makes a mean pot of tea but she's so busy she has no time to cook. She subscribes to box meals (like Hello Fresh, etc) so she can feel like she's not surviving on takeout and restaurant meals. She definitely has Girl Breakfast and Girl Lunch though (her favorite bubble tea and two cups of extra sugary tea for that afternoon pick-me-up, respectively) which is not great. Watch out for gastritis, sis.
Jing Yuan - he's got dad grilling vibes but I can't see this man seriously cooking. at best there'll be weaponized incompetence before he's shooed out of the kitchen, chuckling. since he's the general however I have to assume he has a personal chef. 
Yanqing - tried to cut vegetables with his swords once and was summarily banned from every kitchen
Jingliu - I'm not even sure she eats anymore. Doesn't she just feed off of ambient malice or something
Luka - Mr. Meat Boy knows his way around a grill and a campfire, but try to sully it with vegetables and you're getting the biggest glare he can muster. A boxer can't live on meat alone, and considering you're nihility path, do we think a vegetable may cause less despair?
Guinaifen - does this girl live somewhere? Like in an apartment or something? She seems to be always out and about, busy streaming or performing or meeting friends to do either of the previous. She probably eats like Qingque does, grabbing something from the Alley whenever her tummy grumbles, but otherwise we are on 👏 the 👏 go !
Topaz - this girl is BUSY busy, she's ordering Grubhubs and Doordashes and having her order from the caf delivered by drone bot while she works through lunch. likes big meetings in the conference rooms though, because there's usually pastries and coffee
Aventurine - much like the other hardworking folks, he ends up with a lot of Space Doordashed lunches and late-work dinners. He attempts recipes from internet videos sometimes, for fun and the love of the trend. He doesn't super know what he's doing but it always turns out marvellously.
Ratio - Few things are outside Dr. Veritas Ratio's wheelhouse, and because a healthy diet is required to maintain a healthy body and mind, he's well versed in cooking techniques and healthy eating. Occasionally will stoop to making something less healthy like french toast to spoil Aventurine with.
Ruan Mei - In my head she's got the 'tism that makes her dislike all but like 2 or 3 textures, and those textures are generally desserts she's learned to make for herself - smooth puddings and pastes, soft dough. I suppose the Lifeform Oven isn't technically cooking, however…
Mme.  Herta - [Automatic Reply] I'm busy. The cafeteria is open for this purpose. [This user cannot be replied to.]
Asta - there's a reason Arlan makes fried rice so well 🙃

i'm super bad at cooking and never know where to start because every recipe out there asks for ingredients i simply don't have at home so do you perhaps know what basic ones would be good to stock up on? like eggs and stuff...especially when it comes to spices i have no idea what is okay to use
Haii o/ very honored that you sent me an ask, and ofc I’ll do my best to help! This reply got a bit out of hand so. Long text under the cut. Behold. Feel free to reach out in asks or dms or whatever with any future questions (@ everyone tbh).
Food is, of course, very subjective, so my idea of a perfect list of foods to keep a stock of will not be universal, but I hope this will, at least, give you some ideas if anything. 
First of all, I usually mentally break down my typical weekday recipe into vaguely carbs source - protein source - veggies, buy a couple of options for each category and just switch them around for variety. My standard set is
rice / pasta (usually spaghetti re:shapes) / glass noodles
eggs / chicken / tofu / bacon
random pack of frozen vegetables, bell peppers, eggplants, tomatoes, cucumbers, leafy greens. garlic and onions too
I have an option of making egg fried rice with chopped up bacon and added frozen vegetables one day, then blending the leftover vegetables with bell peppers and tomatoes to use as pasta sauce with chicken and spaghetti the next day, then branching out and making eggplant tofu stir fry with glass noodles, then using whatever eggplant tofu stir fry i had left as rice balls filling and making myself a quick vegetable salad on the side… And all those things are easy to make and don’t need much fussing around. 
Other options to consider would be potatoes (you can roast them with whatever, boil, fry, etc), buckwheat (my wife doesn’t like it otherwise I’d use it more often), kidney beans and chickpeas for your carbs*; fish and meat for your proteins (those are. a bit too expensive for me usually); carrots, cabbage, leeks etc. 
The list looks long, but, again, you just need to pick out a couple of things from each group and throw shit in a pan so to speak. And a lot of them are easily soup-able (boiling water chicken potatoes carrots rice? boom soup. etc), which is another easy base recipe to exploit.
Now to the matter of spices. Salt and pepper are obvious enough, but a good thing to look for are, especially if you are just getting into cooking, spice blends. Something something French Herbs™ something something Taco Seasoning™ something something Seven Spice™ something something Garam Masala™. There’s a lot of different ones, but they are, essentially, a formed flavor profile in themselves, so you don’t need to worry about mixing spices and herbs that might not go well together, and by paying attention to contents you can learn for yourself what individual seasonings are commonly used together.
Also, everyone, hold your judgement real quick and trust me with this, but ooh I always save leftover flavor packets from instant ramen and reuse them in other dishes. Egg fried rice just doesn’t taste right without suspicious red powder courtesy of shin ramen… It’s probably MSG my beloved or something…
While I’m at it, bouillon cubes are handy to have, you can use them for soups, crumble them up in other recipes. Adding one to the water you’re cooking rice in is a great hack at making it more flavourful.
In general, while I do actually have way too much spices (and keep buying more… very excited about my newly acquired dried tarragon…), the ones I’d advise to have for an average person would be:
Salt (ideally both coarse grain and fine grain, but fine grain only serves you just right)
black pepper (both in a mill/grinder and peppercorns), red pepper flakes
paprika, garlic powder, ginger powder
bay leaves, dried oregano, basil, thyme, dill, cinnamon, coriander, cardamon, cumin, turmeric, sumak....
I really got a bit carried away by the end, but. You don't actually need to buy all of them and at the same time, just start with whatever couple of things you'd need for whatever you are cooking and let your collection build up over time, since spices aren't something you need to buy often anyway 👍
Other things I think it’s nice to have in stock in your kitchen would be flour and baking powder, vinegar (distilled vinegar, rice vinegar… I like to have balsamic vinegar too but it’s so expensive it’s ridiculous ngl), soy sauce, cooking oil of your choice (I use sunflower oil, olive oil and sesame oil), panko or breadcrumbs, starch (i have potato starch, cornstarch and tapioka starch, I would suggest just getting cornstarch at first).
* going to clarify here that while beans are often brought up as a source of protein, most are rich in complex carbs, excluding edamame and green beans for example. And since I mostly often cook beans with meat, they check out my daily carbs in my head.

I love your user name
If you were to make a "cosmic poutine" what would be in it?(fry type, gravy variety, cheese curd flavor, additional toppings)
okay so i've only ever eaten poutine ONE TIME. but my girlfriend is a chef and i asked her to make me a cosmic poutine. so there's a recipe under the cut lol
Tumblr media
Cosmic poutine
Ingredients
2- tablespoons of butter
1-tablespoon flour
1.5 cups of milk
White cheddar cheese curds
French fries
Food coloring
Bullion (optional)
Make fries - you can torture yourself and make from scratch or buy frozen at store and bake. Your choice.
In a small saucepan melt butter and add the flour - stiring on a low heat. This is your rue. Let it brown ever so slightly so the raw flour taste cooks out.
Heat milk and add either salt/pepper to taste or add a few bouillon cubes. This is what will flavor your gravy. Just make it taste good.
Pour milk broth into the browned rue and stir tell it begins to thicken to a gravy consistency, remove from heat and let cool a bit and add food coloring to get desired color (im colorblind so just wait tell cosmic tells me it’s purple)
Chop up the cheese curds so they will look like stars and Toss with a bit of yellow food coloring
Once fries are frenched you are ready to assemble your Cosmic Poutine.

Grandpa's feat of alchemy
I was planning a fish fry one recent day, but when I went to the freezer for some frozen Ore Idas, the cupboard, so to speak, was bare.
Then I remembered some advice my older son gave me when he was about 5. He had spent the weekend with my parents and the first astonished words that came out of his mount when I retrieved him were:
"Grandpa knows how to make french fries out of regular potatoes. We should do that."
The kid was astonished by Grandpa's feat of alchemy, but let's face it, when your household includes four kids and two full-time jobs, you tend to go frozen on things like french fries.
But with no Ore Idas for that recent fish fry and a little time on my hands, I peeled, sliced, poured three fingers of cooking oil into a Dutch oven and turned on the heat ... As you can see from the photo, french fries emerged.
My advice: Make sure you keep the oil hot enough (325 degrees with the recipe I used) and fry them twice.

sharing some of grandma's recipes 🩷 she's OUR grandma now. she tends to give simple recipes for easy bases - add whatever you'd like to them!
recipes:
- chicken noodle soup
- chicken salsa soup
- sweet potato curry
- gumbo
- how to make rice
- homemade bread. peasant, flat, and fried
CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP
- buy roasted chicken. place in pot with water filled about halfway up chicken. leave to boil for 40min-hour [good for walking away and doing things. boiling it makes it super easy to get the bones out. you can also just pick the meat you want off if you're in a hurry)
- pick out bones / add boneless meat to pot with water or broth from store (as much broth as you want)
- 1tb bouillon, bay leaf [i double this for stronger flavor]
- any seasonings you want. my personal favs are creole or yellow curry. parsley is delicious as well and discourages bad breath >:]
- veggies: sliced carrots, celery, chopped onions
- bring to a boil for cooking then turn down heat, leave for 10 min
- noodles! any that you want. grandma's favorite are egg noodles. cook until noodles are desired texture
great granny made this for my gma served on top of mashed potatoes
makes multiple servings! good for easy leftovers
CHICKEN SALSA SOUP
- saute / fry chopped onion in butter. add 1 pint water and 1.5 cup salsa
- 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp chili powder, 1-2 tb bouillon, as much garlic as you want (i personally double this)
- when it starts boiling add 1-2 cups of corn (canned or frozen)
- add bite sized chicken. i always buy my chicken precooked bc i have anxiety about it LOL. cook for 5 minutes longer
serve with sour cream, chips, and cheese
SWEET POTATO CURRY
- fry 1 chopped onion and 1 chopped sweet potato together with butter
- add a little water (don't fully cover food) and cover to steam about 10 minutes
- buy bottle of red or green curry sauce. 3 tbs. or about half the bottle. curry paste or powder also works! use same amount and adjust as desired
- add 1 cup of water with 2 tsp bouillon
- i personally add some cooked shredded chicken and a bit of creole seasoning and parsley. not called for in recipe
- add coconut milk once potatos are fully cooked and soft
- low heat until desired temperature
served with rice and flat bread
COOPER FAMILY GUMBO
cook in a big pot
- 1 bag frozen okra. chopped or chop yourself. fry with small amount of oil until it stops being stringy. takes about 10 min depending on amount. add to pot after
- add chopped: onion, green pepper, celery (1 onion, 1 big pepper, 2 celery for base recipe. i do some spicy peppers as well. add more as desired)
- 1 24-32oz can of diced tomatoes
- 2tbs bouillion (i use veggie bouillion, meat kinds are good too) (grandma uses this for an easy roux replacement) (roux recipe: butter and flour in low to medium heated pan. mix until golden brown. add creole seasoning)
- about 1 qts of water (i personally love broth so i just fill until im satisfied) (i will also use 3 32oz containers of broth instead of water for flavor)
- season with parsley, 2 bay leaves, plenty of tonys creole seasoning (i also add curry powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and lemon black pepper) (creole is main soup seasoning for gumbo) (the brand is just Cooper Family preference)
- once veggies are soft add bite sized cooked chicken, sausage, shrimp (i don't usually include shrimp bc of texture. i use a cooked chicken from the store and just tear it up so it's stringy. creole or beef sausage is my favorite) (i recently found some dried shrimp at my store and added that, good replacement for texture issues)
serve over rice with bread. best breads are garlic french bread or flat bread. normal bread slices also work just fine
creole is a little spicy, so taste test for desired amount as you're adding
FOR RICE IF YOU DONT HAVE RICE COOKER:
- add 1 cup rice or more
- WASH! rinse rice in water, mix with hands, and drain multiple times until water is no longer milky colored (doesn't have to be 100% clear)
- fill water until it's a little above the rice. measure with finger, i usually do a little under the first knuckle
- cover pot and leave to cook on medium heat. if it starts to boil, immediately turn down heat to low.
- once all water is evaporated, add butter and salt! serve with whatever you'd like
for YELLOW rice add 1-2 tb butter and 1 tsp turmeric, throw in some fried onions if you're feeling fancy!
grandma liked adding 1-2 tb of ketchup and fried onions to plain cooked rice. said it gave it a great reddish color LMAO
HOMEMADE BREADS
PEASANT BREAD BASE RECIPE
- 2 cups of warm water
      - for rosemary bread add crushed rosemary at this part
      - add any seasonings you want or leave plain! either way is delicious
- 1 tbs yeast, 2 tbs sugar, 2 tbs salt
let rest until yeast is activated (looks sticky/foamy/expanded)
- add up to 4 cups of flour. mix each cup in as you pour, the dough will be sticky and can be mixed with a fork
- cover with cloth and leave it to rise. will double in size. i usually walked away to leave it for an hour, im not sure if it actually takes that long tho lmao
- preheat oven to 375
- get your baking bread bowl or pan and butter VERY well to prevent the dough from sticking. i tend to cover the dough and pan in butter. if you don't have an oven bread pan or whatever it's called (my gma called it a cereal bowl i DONT think that's correct hahahah), then a flat pan will work just fine! bowl is just for shape. gma divides bread into 2 loafs, i divide into rolls or flatten it for flatbread!
- cover again in rag and let dough rise a 2nd time before placing in oven
loaves take about 20 minutes, but just bake until bread is a golden brown :] grandma likes adding sesame seeds before putting bread in oven
recipe works for pretty much anything! pizza dough, loafs, rolls, flatbread
FLATBREAD
- follow peasant bread recipe up until the 1st rise of the dough
- butter or spray cookie sheet with oil, spread dough thin
- brush top with melted butter, sesame seeds, parsley, and parmesan cheese
- bake at 325 until golden brown
i personally add some sliced chery tomatoes, rosemary, cheese, and creole seasoning to top bread before placing in the oven. then more cheese directly after pulling it out.
FRY BREAD
- after 1st rise, divide and hand flatten dough into thin circles
- paint with melted butter and let rest for 5-10 minutes
- fill a pan about 1/3rd with oil, high or medium heat while dough is resting in butter
- cook in oil until crispy golden brown
delicious with curry or gumbo!

20. What's in your freezer right now? (Bonus: any other with an interesting answer that no one's asked yet)
bonus question first, because i take any opportunity to talk about food at length
41 - What's the oldest thing you own?
huh. i was going to say "my grandfather's sword", because that's the cool answer, but i guess it's actually my house, which is both a boring and ship of theseus answer. large portions of this place have been ripped out and put back over its 105 years of existing.
but as for objects that i can carry around, probably the sword, from the 40s.
20 - oh boy! i just cleaned out the freezer two weeks, and it is still 100% full! it's very wide, tall, and shallow; it's got a deep drawer, a very shallow shelf, and one reasonable drawer.
deep drawer:
10 bagels (from the last two weeks)
8 tahini rolls (last night, recipe handed to me by @adiantum-sporophyte)
1 spare bagel, shichimi togarashi (last fucking december)
8 dinner rolls (in the last month; i like them with The Beans)
500g of sourdough bread (in the last month)
bags of corn, peas, raspberries, blueberries, and 6tbsp or so tomato paste
a few ounces of frozen french fries
1 bag of vegan nuggets that i haven't tried yet
1 bag of not-chicken strips
2 bags of breaded not-chicken filets, like for sandwiches
2 bags of not-burgers
the bagels come from partner's favorite bagelry (?). we eat bagels for breakfast 4-5 days a week, so we get 12 bageldays of bagels every 2-3 weeks.
i love fake meat so much. people are out there jerking off, "i feel we should celebrate vegetables for what they are, and not try to make them into what they aren't". poppycock! burger is good. nugget is good. vegetable qua vegetable is also good. they're both good! eat both! one needs micronutrients and big hunks of protein!
the tahini rolls are basically extra flavorful dinner rolls. the flavor is a little hard to pair with, though. i have some stews in mind to try them with.
the sourdough is the leftovers of a huuuuuuuge miche i bought at nearby bakery because i went right at close and it was all they had left. i fucked up and froze it in 3 chunks, instead of slicing before freezing; when i tried to slice up one of the chunks, it was a huge mess. i might turn the rest into ribollita, now that i think about it.
partner had the idea that we'd 3d print some dividers, so that the bagels wouldn't collapse into the frozen vegetables, and the faux meats wouldn't collapse, so we got a profiling tool... and we haven't made the dividers yet. eventually!
shallow shelf:
6 frozen mulberry scones on a quarter-sheet pan
1 basket of frozen mulberries
mashed mulberry to use in lemonade (as suggested by @tinyyellowflowers-blog), occupying one of my eighth-sheet pans
frozen blackberries, occupying another quarter-sheet pan
a deli container completely full of apricot pits
the mulberry scones smelled really weird when i cooked the first two... but they tasted fine. mild; not a fantastic use of mulberry imo. the frozen ones are like ice cream. i'm supposed to bake with the blackberries, and i have been -- made these peanut butter bars, and then merged it with some jam bars; the second one was like the best pb&j i've ever eaten.
the apricot pit bucket is for infusing into alcohol. slaw, a doctor, was over last night, and i casually asked how much cyanide is okay to eat. she made a frowny face at me. then i said it was apricot pits and she was like "that's fine".
i really really need to either reclaim those baking sheets or get more; i use them more for organization than for baking, though.
reasonable drawer:
1 box of "plant based breakfast patties"
1 box of folded fake eggs
1 box of fake poached eggs
3 boxes of tofu skins (help)
8 dinner rolls (in the last month)
1 miniloaf of baharat banana bread (march?)
4oz of pepita dukkah (december)
8oz of flaxseeds (ancient)
6 little containers of apple butter (from a year ago)
1/3 pint of ice cream (a month or two)
2 little containers of a very condensed tomato-shallot sauce (possibly 2 years old)
1 jar of yeast (18 months)
uhhhh, ice
the dinner rolls are parker house rolls, but i don't actually like the parker house shape (too much hassle); i just do them as miniboules. they freeze and reheat perfectly. if i get another 9x13 i could do double batches, and maybe i will.
every now and then we eat bagel sands for breakfast, with bagels (real), egg (fake), sausage (fake), cheese (fake), and i love it. they're so good.
no idea what to do with the tofu skins; i've never used yuba before, and i haven't had hot pot either.
the ice is impossible to get out of the ice bucket, due to how shallowly the freezer drawer extends. for fashion reasons, there's no in-door ice or water dispenser.

oooh pls tell me more about the menu
Oh! Thank you for asking about this one!
The Menu (not to be confused with the 2022 Ralph Fiennes film of the same title, they are VERY different) is a fic that I predict will get a fair amount of hits, few kudos, and fewer comments, but I. am. in. love. with. it. It's so damn fun and it's getting so much of my attention that it's nearly finished.
This again was typed with haste, so forgive any typos, but this section pretty much captures the gist of the fic:
“Declan’s making business decisions,” Ronan told Adam, pushing himself up from leaning on his elbows as Adam pushed himself off the doorframe and crossed the kitchen. “And business decisions include reading—” Adam stopped when he reached the island and he flipped an opened cookbook closed “—Classic Irish Cuisine.” “I told him it was stupid.” “Yeah, I’m sure that’s exactly what you said.” Adam glanced at Ronan—they both knew Ronan had taken every ounce of color out of what he’d said to Declan—before he let the cookbook fall back open. Starting to flip through it, he paid closer attention to the recipes than the glossy photos that accompanied them, the opposite of Ronan’s approach. “So why are you reading Classic Irish Cuisine?” Adam pulled another cookbook to him. “And the Complete Irish Pub Cookbook?” “He wants to revamp the menu,” Ronan replied, air quoting his older brother. This confused Adam more than Ronan being home, because not only did he furrow his eyebrows again, but he turned down the corners of his thin lips. “You guys don’t really have a menu to revamp.” “Yeah, I told him that, too.” Ronan closed the cookbook in front of him as Adam moved around the island to stand beside him. “But he has some idea to turn the place into a fancy ass pub, and becoming a fancy ass pub means we can’t throw frozen chicken fingers and french fries in the deep fryer and call it a day.”

As a Jewish archivist at the Center for Michigan Jewish Heritage (CMJH), based in Metro-Detroit, I’ve found endless hidden gems in our local Jewish archives. Archivists collect, maintain, and make accessible historic materials relating to their area or subject, which does not sound as exciting as it really is. Being an archivist at a Jewish archive means that I get to look through amazing Purim photographs, letters from rabbis writing to each other about congregational drama, film reels with old timey dancing; the list goes on. But among the most fun finds are congregational cookbooks. The CMJH has cookbooks that are over 100 years old, with recipes from generations of Jewish Detroiters. While skimming a cookbook for a social media post, a fellow archivist and I came across a recipe called “mock blintzes” from 1947. You might be familiar with the classic blintz, often a sweet cheese filled crepe topped with sour cream or jam. Upon looking at the ingredients of mock blintzes (which included salted crackers and dry cottage cheese), it looked…subpar to the classic blintz; unappealing, even. So, of course, we decided there was only one thing to do: make them. 
Tumblr media
After posting a picture of my results online, I was surprised to find that people knew about this recipe and had fond memories of “mock blintzes.” Perhaps it is generational, but the idea sounded so far from the blintzes I knew. Once I received that comment, it pushed me to do a little digging about the “mock blintz” and see what I could learn about this (mostly) forgotten recipe. 
So, let’s take a look at the history of this, well, historical recipe. Though it seems to have lost popularity in the 2020’s, the “mock blintz” can be found mentioned in many places in the mid 20th century, including Jewish cookbooks and newspapers from the era. It appears that the “mock blintz” with salted crackers, a cream cheese/cottage cheese filling, dipped in an egg mixture and fried was a common choice in the 1930’s and 1940’s. Another “mock blintz” option, which sounds a little more enticing, used a similar concept for filling and frying but rather than using crackers, the recipe called for rolled thin white bread. Crackers or bread, this recipe could be found in newspapers throughout the country. In one paper, published in 1988, it was listed under the “Unusual Breakfast Ideas,”  which gives us a clue on its popularity by that time. 
Tumblr media
With all this great information about the history of the “mock blintz” you must be wondering, are they actually good? Well, when we made them, the expectations were incredibly low, which helped. The reason we even attempted to make them is because they sounded unappetizing (take a look at the picture of the recipe to see what I mean). Saltine crackers with dry cottage cheese? Not exactly my top combination. However, with the addition of the egg and butter (lots of butter) it actually turned out okay. The taste reminds me of something closer to French toast made with salty crackers. Although our expectations were already low, the result truly did exceed them. I can absolutely see how the people who use matzah to make a “mock blintz” during Passover are doing something right. But would I choose this over a frozen blintz or French toast? Probably not. 
Whether or not my description sounds appealing, the recipe is definitely intriguing and tells a story about the way people were trying to balance tradition, and modern lives at the time the recipe was popular. Today, there are various online recipes for the “mock blintz.” If you want to try them,  I recommend channeling your grandmother (or great-grandmother) and attempting to recreate the 1940’s version. It’s…not bad.

I have never had tater tot hot dish* and suddenly got the urge to make it for the first time yesterday. I found a recipe that used half cream of mushroom soup, half sour cream and milk (instead of all soup). I also used thawed frozen green beans instead of canned because no thank you on canned veg.
I was stupidly optimistic that the kids would like it but wasn’t thinking about
- visually it’s very disgusting
- they don’t like “creamy”
- translucent but visible onions
- green beans (one of them used to like beans, I forget who, but now they both don’t like)
- C doesn’t like POTATOES (no not even French fries).
So yeah they both choked down one bite and acted like it was poison. Jeremy was game to try it and liked it okay, but said he felt queasy later.
I genuinely love it! It reminds me of the Hamburger Helper my dad made when I was a kid. But hey look, there’s green veg! So now I have a whole giant pan of it to have for lunches, and I win!
*don’t worry, as a Wisconsinite I still have had plenty of other casseroles made with “cream of” soups. We were more of a “cheesy potatoes” family. Speaking of which, reading the ingredients for that just now made me want to barf - cream of mushroom, fine. Cream of celery - okay gross but I’ve used that too. Cream of chicken?? No, no. Oh my god so gross. If you’ve ever been the person who makes the cheesy potatoes and you see that slither out of the can, you might not want them anymore.

National Cheddar Fries Day 
Crunchy on the outside, fluffy on the inside - cheddar fries are a savory sensation! Whether dipped in ketchup or smothered in cheese sauce, these fries are a satisfying snack.
There’s something so incredibly delicious and deeply American about a big huge pile of french fries that is smothered in cheddar cheese sauce and piled high! Whether eaten as an appetizer or as a whole meal, cheddar fries have the power to bring quite a bit of delight to any table of friends or family members.
Now, Cheddar Fries Day is here to pay honor and respect to this simple and appetizing bit of American cuisine.
History of National Cheddar Fries Day
National Cheddar Fries Day got its official start in 2016 by a restaurant called Snuffer’s in the state of Texas. Though no one is quite sure when this dish got its start, it was certainly created somewhere in the United States. Putting cheese on french fried potatoes to make cheddar fries, or cheese fries, may have originated around the time that the American company, Kraft, released a product called Cheez Whiz in 1953. This was a processed cheese food that made it possible to have a saucier kind of melted cheese in a jar or can.
Chili cheese fries, which are basically cheddar fries that incorporate chili as well, have a story of having been invented at a Dairy Queen restaurant in Missouri by a man named Austin Ruse. But it is known that chili cheese fries could be sourced in the frozen food section of grocery stores as early as 1975.
In today’s world, cheddar fries are served at all sorts of different locally owned restaurants as well as national chains, from fast food to diner-style to casual family dining restaurants. They might come with just cheese or chili and cheese. Or they might be “loaded” up with bacon bits, green onions and sour cream. Some of the well-known places that serve a version of cheddar fries might include Steak ‘n Shake, Wendy’s, Arby’s, Shake Shack and many others.
National Cheddar Fries Day Timeline
1600s French Fries get their start
Deceivingly, the first fries were made in the country of Belgium, where the French language is spoken. 
1934 Steak ‘n Shake is first opened
Founded in Normal, Illinois, Steak ‘n Shake will eventually become an American icon for fries, specializing in cheddar cheese fries.
1953 Cheez Whiz is introduced
This canned, whipped cheese by Kraft makes it easier to put cheese on just about anything!

Learn Some Fun Facts About Cheddar and Fries
In honor of National Cheddar Fries Day, it might be fun to raise awareness and pique the interest of family members and friends by learning and sharing some unique and interesting fun facts about the elements of this dish. Have a go with some of these bits of trivia:
Cheddar cheese comes in a few different interesting varieties. The most common are mild, medium, sharp and extra sharp. But there is also white cheddar, New York style, Orkney Scottish Island Cheddar, and even “red cheddar”, which is really more of a Red Leicester cheese.
French fries don’t seem to have actually originated in France but in Belgium. It is believed they were called French fries because American soldiers first discovered them among the French speaking Belgians.
Cheddar cheese originated in a village in Somerset, England, by the name of Cheddar.
When the restaurant started the price of a portion of McDonald’s French Fries was only ten cents.

Top 10 Must-Have Kitchen Appliances for Every Home
Tumblr media
When it comes to designing the perfect kitchen, selecting the right appliances is crucial. Whether you're a culinary enthusiast or someone who enjoys the occasional meal prep, having the right tools can make your cooking experience much easier, more efficient, and enjoyable. In this blog post, we will explore the top 10 must-have kitchen appliances that every home should have. These appliances not only enhance convenience but also elevate the overall functionality of your kitchen.
One of the most essential Miele kitchen appliances in any home is a high-quality refrigerator. The refrigerator is the heart of your kitchen, preserving your food and keeping ingredients fresh for extended periods. With a variety of sizes, styles, and features available, choosing the right fridge can have a significant impact on your kitchen’s organization and energy efficiency. Modern refrigerators often come with smart features like temperature control, humidity management, and even Wi-Fi connectivity, allowing you to monitor and adjust settings from your phone. With the increasing demand for healthier eating and fresh food, a reliable refrigerator is a must-have in every kitchen.
The second must-have appliance for every home is a microwave oven. While some might argue that a microwave is unnecessary if you enjoy cooking meals from scratch, the convenience it offers cannot be denied. A microwave is ideal for quick meals, reheating leftovers, and even defrosting frozen ingredients in minutes. Additionally, many modern microwaves come with features like grilling, convection cooking, and even smart sensors that help optimize cooking times and temperatures based on the type of food being prepared. The versatility and speed of a microwave oven make it an indispensable part of a well-equipped kitchen.
A dishwasher is another kitchen essential that deserves a spot on our list. Gone are the days when dishwashers were considered a luxury item. Today, dishwashers are a common feature in most households, helping to save time and water. Modern dishwashers offer powerful cleaning capabilities with energy-efficient designs, and many models come with smart sensors that detect how dirty your dishes are and adjust water usage accordingly. Not only does a dishwasher take the hassle out of doing the dishes, but it also helps you maintain a cleaner and more organized kitchen.
Next on the list is a stand mixer, particularly for those who love to bake. Whether you're whipping up cakes, cookies, or bread, a stand mixer is a powerful tool that can handle everything from mixing dough to whipping cream with ease. These appliances often come with a variety of attachments, such as dough hooks, pasta makers, and meat grinders, making them extremely versatile. Investing in a high-quality stand mixer can save you time and effort in the kitchen, and it can also expand the types of recipes you can create at home.
No modern kitchen is complete without a blender. From smoothies and sauces to soups and purees, a blender is one of the most versatile kitchen appliances you can own. The powerful blades can crush ice, blend frozen fruits, and emulsify liquids, making it an ideal choice for health-conscious individuals looking to make nutritious drinks and meals. Many blenders also come with various speed settings and pulse functions, allowing for precise control over the texture of your blends. Having a reliable blender in your kitchen can inspire creativity and help you experiment with new recipes.
One appliance that has gained immense popularity in recent years is the air fryer. Known for its ability to cook food with little to no oil, the air fryer has become a staple in kitchens around the world. It uses hot air circulation to fry, bake, grill, or roast your favorite foods, delivering crispy and delicious results without the guilt of deep-frying. Air fryers are perfect for making healthier versions of popular dishes like French fries, chicken wings, and even desserts. With its fast cooking times and healthier approach to frying, the air fryer has earned its place as a must-have appliance in every kitchen.
Another kitchen essential is the coffee maker. Whether you're a casual coffee drinker or a serious coffee enthusiast, having a good coffee maker is a must. There are several types to choose from, including drip coffee makers, single-serve machines, and espresso machines, depending on your preferences. Many modern coffee makers come with programmable settings, allowing you to set your brew time in advance, ensuring that you wake up to a fresh cup of coffee each morning. For many, the coffee maker is more than just an appliance; it's a daily ritual and an essential part of their morning routine.
The slow cooker is an appliance that every home chef should consider adding to their kitchen. It is perfect for busy individuals or families who want to prepare hearty, home-cooked meals without spending hours in the kitchen. With a slow cooker, you can simply toss in your ingredients, set the timer, and let it cook your meal throughout the day. Slow cookers are ideal for soups, stews, casseroles, and even desserts. The “set it and forget it” functionality makes meal prep a breeze and ensures that you come home to a delicious, ready-to-eat meal.
For anyone who loves freshly baked bread, a bread maker is an excellent addition to the kitchen. Homemade bread has a unique taste and texture that store-bought loaves just can’t replicate. With a bread maker, you can enjoy freshly baked bread whenever you want, without the hassle of kneading dough or watching it rise. Many bread makers come with various settings that allow you to customize the crust color, loaf size, and baking time. This appliance is perfect for those who enjoy experimenting with different types of bread, such as whole wheat, sourdough, or gluten-free options.
Finally, no kitchen is complete without a food processor. This appliance can save you hours of prep time by chopping, slicing, dicing, and shredding your ingredients in seconds. A food processor is ideal for making large batches of food, such as chopping vegetables for a salad, grating cheese, or even making dough. Its versatility makes it a must-have for any kitchen, and it can also help you prepare more complex dishes with ease. Many food processors come with interchangeable blades and discs, allowing you to customize your prep work for different types of meals.
In conclusion, having the right kitchen appliances can make all the difference in your cooking experience. From preparing quick meals to experimenting with new recipes, these top 10 must-have kitchen appliances can enhance your kitchen’s functionality and efficiency. By investing in high-quality, reliable appliances, you can streamline your cooking process, save time, and make meal prep more enjoyable. Whether you’re upgrading your current kitchen setup or starting from scratch, these appliances are essential for any modern home, ensuring that you have everything you need to create delicious, home-cooked meals.

Fast food- French fries production process in the factory - Food around you #fast_food #french_fries
The Process of Harvesting and Producing McDonald's French Fries McDonald's French fries are renowned for their distinctive flavor and perfect crispiness. To achieve this quality, the process of harvesting and producing French fries involves meticulous and precise steps, from selecting the potatoes to packaging them. Here is a detailed look at how McDonald's creates the beloved fries we enjoy. 1. Selecting the Potato Variety McDonald's chooses Burbank Russet potatoes for their French fries. This variety is known for its large size, elongated shape, and high starch content. These characteristics help the Burbank Russet potatoes achieve the desired golden-brown color and crispiness when fried, while also maintaining a soft and fluffy interior. 2. Harvesting the Potatoes Potatoes are grown in large fields with optimal climate and soil conditions, primarily in states like Idaho and Washington in the U.S. When harvest season arrives, potatoes are dug up from the ground using advanced machinery. The harvesters are designed to lift the potatoes gently, avoiding damage to the thin outer skin and minimizing any loss. 3. Sorting and Storage After harvesting, the potatoes are sorted using automated systems. Potatoes that meet the size, shape, and quality standards are kept. The selected potatoes are then transported to cold storage facilities to preserve their freshness. The cold storage maintains ideal temperature and humidity levels, ensuring the potatoes remain fresh for an extended period. 4. Washing and Peeling Before processing, the potatoes are washed in large water tanks to remove dirt and debris. A strong water flow combined with vibrating belts helps clean the potatoes thoroughly. After washing, the potatoes are transferred to peeling machines. These machines use gentle rollers to remove the outer skin without damaging the flesh inside. Thorough peeling ensures that only clean, smooth potato flesh is used for making fries. 5. Cutting the Potatoes Once cleaned and peeled, the potatoes are moved to the cutting area. Here, advanced cutting machines use high-pressure water knives to slice the potatoes into long, thin, and evenly sized strips. The water knives allow for high-speed cutting (about 60-70 miles per hour) without crushing the potatoes, ensuring each fry is of uniform size and shape. 6. Pre-Frying and Freezing The cut potato strips are pre-fried in hot oil. This initial frying step helps achieve a light, crispy outer layer without cooking them completely. After pre-frying, the fries are cooled and rapidly frozen. The quick freezing process preserves the flavor and texture of the fries, and extends their shelf life. 7. Packaging and Distribution The frozen fries are then packaged into large bags. These bags are sealed tightly to keep the fries fresh and ready for distribution. Once packaged, the fries are transported to McDonald's restaurants worldwide. At the restaurants, the fries are cooked one final time before being served to customers. 8. The Secret to Perfect Fries One of the secrets behind McDonald's perfect fries lies in their special processing techniques and recipe. The fries are often treated with a light coating of sugar and sodium pyrophosphate. Sugar helps the fries achieve a beautiful golden-brown color, while sodium pyrophosphate prevents discoloration during storage and cooking.
