Do you cook?

I made a salad today for the first time :joy::partying_face: of course not for the first time, but this one salad for the first time…

Watermelon with feta cheese mint leaves and a dressing with honey, chili powder, a little olive oil and a little mixed with melon water :star_struck: actually the whole thing was really tasty :yum::yum: I just have to work on the dressing a little, the whole thing was quite spicy :hot_face:

I haven’t tried this one in a while, but cucumber salad is also a southern delecacy. sliced cucumbers, some onion, some spices, some vinegar, a tomato. I am saying some, its to your taste, just have to work with it to your taste. really good after chilled

Seen these trendy iterations of tteokboki.
Haven’t tried these yet, since I really love to make rice cakes myself, but I will when it gets colder again :laughing:

Don’t need rice cakes for this one, only rice paper.

Just getting into this thread. I cook a ton. I used to do a lot of baking, too, but not as much lately since I’m wfh and it’s just my husband and me here. But I do a lot of Korean cooking, too, and love Maangchi, Korean Bapsang and Cecilia Hae-Jin Lee for inspiration. 20160907_205338![20150106_210706|281x500]20150624_211122_Richtone(HDR) (upload://YZqztD3lBKUYqFXI3J4OMERiIj.jpeg) 20160730_135259

Hmm this looks somehow tasty, what’s all in there, something with ham or bacon? Do you have a recipe :yum::yum:

It’s extremely tasty. I’ve made traditional cheese danishes, plain and with fruit filling, and these ham and gruyere stuffed sanity danishes as well. I used the King Arthur Flour recipe as my starting point. https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/recipes/danish-pastry-recipe
I like putting pastry cream in as a filling instead of cheese, as well. Danishes freeze well, so make a double batch while you’re at it.

Thank you, the process of the danish dough from scratch is quite elaborate and lot’s of butter :wink: I might try this one day, I also prefer doughs from scratch like pizza dough or tart dough even for appel strudel or the Swiss apple tart (Apfelwähe), I don’t use creme fraiche, but it might make the custard finer, also no jam… but it might taste more on the palate:


For the dough, there are different recipes, I use this basic one:
ca. 8 oz flour
1/2 tspoon salt
ca. 4 oz butter
6 Tblspoon water
This dough does not require kneading, I put it in a wrap and let it rest in the fridge at least 30 min. I roll it afterwards. You can also use a dough processor instead your hands.

Thanks for this recipe! If probably add a bit more spice, since that’s my style, but I love it as directed otherwise. I really like the crushed almonds–I may introduce that trick into my favorite apple pie recipe.

Yes. Butter. I do love it so. Can’t get enough.

Yes, I also do a something like this with mozzarella and olive tapenade, but with a pizza dough instead of puff pastry. So delicious!

You could freeze the leftovers in portions! Just use a small 3 pound roast! Good to stuff a potato too
