Happy Mutants food and drink topic (Part 1)

I use cumin in a lot of things. It’s interesting that so many of items were listed because they added salt-Americans use way more salt in general than most other countries.

Normally don’t take photos of my food but our knockoff Egg McMuffins turned out well tonight.

The air fryer is perfect for eggs. A well greased ramekin or suffle cup makes the perfect size. The trick is to break the yoke before cooking. Don’t scramble just poke it a few times with a fork.

Toasted english muffin with cheese and some Canadian bacon and Mmmm.

And cinnamon was my secret ingredient in chili (back when I could eat it, sigh, I miss peppers) because I grabbed it instead of chili powder, and didn’t realize til it was in the pot and I smelled it… I added double the amount of chili powder to “cover” the cinnamon, and everyone raved.

Cincinnati 5 way chili has always had cinnamon in it, because the guys who developed it were/are Greek and cinnamon is used in pastitsio.

Yeah, had more than a few in the UK, it’s good if you don’t have a glass and have a nice hoppy beer.

As beer and bread have gone together since time immemorial – thanks, yeast! – it’s a well-chosen phrase.

A cast iron insert for a skillet or on top of a grill.
Hope to try it out this weekend.🫰🏼

It’s been mostly tightly sealed in the bottom of a chest freezer. It smells nice and crabby. Yea or nay?

I vote nay. I have no good scientific reason though.

What could go wrong? I say yea!

I go with yea, as long as it’s been frozen. Bring it to a boil and taste it.
