As long as the bread is not moulding or rotting away it is also great soup dip.

Brandade is one of my mother's absolute favorite things in the world. She couldn't get enough of it in Venice.

Wooden bbq planks are one thing, but has anyone tried a salt plate?

I saw it for the first time in my grocery last week. Seems interesting.

Do you think there may be an acoustic leak from the jack hole? ~Tyll Hertsens

Not sure if I like stuffing one hole or both holes. Tending toward one hole since both holes seems kinda ghey ~Purrin

Personally I'd only use pink salt on chicken or fish. It has a very unique sort of sharpness that I don't like on beef personally. Maybe a plank would smooth it out, dunno. Ironic that most of the pics show seafood.

Searzall, yeah I heard of it. And watched that video before. Salamder searing on the go.

What do you guys have as cheap, easy food?

Right now I got

salsa: ripest tomatos I can find, lime, (sometimes persian cucumber), olive oil garlic
Cambodian steak sauce: baby round eggplant minced fine, lime juice, lemongrass, anchovies, salt, sugar
cucumber salad: lime garlic cucumber olive oil
nappa cabbage and meat soup: nappa, pork meatball/shoulder roast cubed/pork butt cubed etc, galanga, garlic, bean sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, ginger, shitake mushroom (minute amount, for more meatiness), miso, black bean sauce
quick stir fry of chicken/pork/beef with any veggies
cucmbers, always, as a quick salad
chicken thighs/legs I debone (yep deboning half a dozen or so. Cutting tendons. . .)

tilapia stir fried with ginger and made into porridge
fried chicken in rice flour and a lot of salt and pepper with cucumbers
lemongrass chicken soup
any good ol, pan fried fillet/steak
steam corn, cabbage, beets, bamboo shoots, green beans
curried anything (got a lot of spices)
tomato (canned, sauce, fresh etc) and garlic with chicken etc and ginger (oriental theme) or herbs (western) or nothing else
ox tail and bitter melon and galanga soup
corn tortillas fried into a quesadilla with cheese
onion bagels and cream cheese

a bunch of asian sauces: fish, dark soy, double dark soy, plum sauce, asian barbeque, sesame oil, bean sauce, black bean, black bean garlic, fish paste, shrimp paste, tamarind paste



sometimes pickled limes/mustard greens/nappa, but I have to wait for it to ripen. And its best done outside the house, in the sun.
