Please don't rely on the title in this question. Part of the problem is that I don't speak any Chinese. Another part of the problem is that the translation isn't perfect. How do 薑蓉 (Ginger Scalli...
When I ate 魚湯銀蘿浸龍躉球 at this Hong Kong restaurant some years ago, this dish had no bones. The broth shown below was made from the fish, 龍躉. Do you know if bones were used? No local grocers sell fi...
Does anyone know why? Can you de-mystify please? It’s a mystery to me why cuttlefish hasn’t enjoyed the popularity in England that it has in Italy and Spain, where most of it is sent after it ha...
Kindly see the emboldened sentence below. With a picture, can you please elaborate which are "the cup side" and "the flat side"? roasted scallops with thyme and coral butter SERVES 2 TO STA...
What do you gain from grilling mussels? If you're grilling them on the BBQ like the picture below, all the mussel fluid will drip into the BBQ or evaporate. Perhaps I'm just lazy, but I see no poi...
Yes, you can substitute these ingredients without worrying. Bell peppers and chilli peppers belong to the same family, the Capsicum. The difference in taste is nearly negligible, the main differen...
There are three macro-nutrients that make up most foods: carbs, fats, and proteins. For February, post a photo of something you made with a protein base. This doesn't need to be meat, of course, le...
I have no way of telling just by looking how that particular broth was made. However, you can absolutely make broth with just the fish flesh, no bones, though you will have slightly less flavor. Al...
No, it refers to the colour. By no means all sherries are pale yellow, and a Pedro Ximénez would not be a suitable substitute at all.
Again I would've never dreamed of combining clams and soy milk! My first reaction was EWWW, and this can cause a stomach ache! Easy Japanese Cooking: Noodle Comfort. Kentaro Kobayashi. p 64.
I've bought mussels at Whole Food Market for a year. They sell them on ice and dry, not in running water. At 10 s this video, Bart teaches add salt to cold water and soak for 20 mins. Aliz...
I'm craving to buy a chinois to filter out the grime from mussel broth, but the issue is that online websites don't specify the mesh or filtration size. What do you recommend? Perhaps I should just...

I keep forgetting to take pictures of my food, but tonight I remembered! (This meal was prepared before the end of the month UTC, but then we ate and cleaned up and had to post. :-) ) Pistachio-c...
I'm interested to know the science behind the colors. Scallops should not be pure white and they should never be stored in water. Pure white scallops most likely have been sitting in and absorbi...
I don't think the author's referring to fluid from the scallops, because on p. 124, she advises buying dry, not wet, scallops. Refrigerate immediately after purchase, and ideally scallops should...
Claude AuCoin, Executive Chef at Digby Pines Resort in Nova Scotia, says that really fresh scallops shrink vertically and expand horizontally but regular scallops do the opposite. Totally Scal...
I was injured in an accident, and can't brush my produce (namely potatoes, squashes) and bivalves (namely clams and mussels) manually. Which is better for scrubbing produce and bivalves – this hand...
On March 3 2021, I bought this Zwilling 33 cm / 13 inch Aluminium deep saute pan with lid. Please review pictures below, inside my red circle. The coating on the surface appears to have corroded! W...
Premise that you can access merely an electric range, and can't access any functioning oven, not even a toaster one. Then what can you do in lieu of roasting your squash? Pan-fry or caramelize it i...
Appetizers, hors d'oeuvres, tapas, snacks... sometimes you don't want a full course meal, just a few nibbles to tickle the palate. Post a photo of your creations here. Feel free to link to a recipe...
What are the main differences between the Sicilian cuisine to the cuisine/s of the rest of Italy? Perhaps the better question would be what ingredients, dishes, drinks (including wine types) and m...
I want my vegan coconut-cream-based ice cream less "watery"/"icy". Which "available-by-every-supermarket" ingredient can be used to thicken "coconut cream" which is still not thick enough, to make...

Morrocan couscous is two parts water to one part couscous, what is the ratio for Israeli Couscous? The bag I bought only has the water for using the whole bag at once which is more than I will eat.
