OT: The M-Fing Food Thread

[MindzEye]

This motherfucker will eat a boiled handful of purple dirt, but shit talks potatoes.

What in the actual fuck.

(P.S. How'd you get the beets if you don't like them? Gift?)

they have this thing called the Odd Bunch where you get sent a mystery box of produce that was rejected by grocers but actually completely fine..usually just cosmectic issues. It's usually a good deal but you never know what you are gonna get. And I got beets.

 

[Deckie007]

Steam them fully cooked.
Make a basic pickling brine.
Combine and eat in a few days.. yum

hmm, I do like pickles. So steam them...let them cool and slice and dump into pickling brine?

beets are sweet and delicious. and a superfood.

not a shitpastefiller like potatoes.

oh and add minced garlic to the previous list of ingredients. my bad. i blanked.

I do not like sweet vegetables in general. But mebbe pickling them is the way to go.

Boiled Potato - tasteless, starchy, mush:




Boiled Beet - gorgeous, sweet, supernutritous:

It’s better than roasting them, which only makes them sweeter

Or boil them like Zeke said and crumble some feta on top of them

 

[axlsalinger]

in all seriousness, beet salad isn't bad. It's not good, but also not bad.

So many lies.

"Superfood". Lol, Zeke is an antivaxx soccer mom now apparently.

[Aberdeen]

Nothing wrong with beets. That earthy flavor is amazing with a lot of things.

 

[Preston]

Superfood is a top 5 soccer mom word. Easily.

[zeke]

you've all been psyopped by Big Potato.

complete opposite — food for the commoners

 

[Preston]

I don't entirely disagree with the potato take. I do think it misses the point in that a potato is nothing but a very good (and yes bland) vessel for culinary artistry that can be explored in hundreds of different forms. But I can't say I'm in love with any single potato dish. It's fine as the bridesmaid, but never the bride. And you can do some cool things with the product from a culinary perspective.

 

[Preston]

I'm a no on beets tho

 

[lecoqsportif]

Pickled beets are great. Otherwise they are a pain in the ass to prep and mediocre.

But they are not evil like parsnips.
