I have a ham bone left over from a spiralized ham we ate over the holidays. I'd like to use it to make some red beans and rice as well as a Senate bean soup in my Instant Pot. Both recipes I'm referencing call for ham hock instead.
Should I just create a stock with the bone I have and use it across both recipes? Should I saw the bone in half? Or should I just use it in one of the recipes then discard it?
I want a list of all the dishes my/your teta would make at home. Just the dishes you eat at home like shish barak, koosa, mograbieh, molokhia, etc. The food you don’t usually find when you eat out at like Kababji or abdel wahab. Any help would be appreciated.
Hi guys, I'm gonna be visiting St. Louis from SoCal, and was trying to make a comprehensive list of all St. Louis-invented local dishes to try, and wanted to make sure I didn't miss any. I've previously done this with other cities such as Kansas City, Miami, and San Francisco.
On another note, I've heard that the original "St. Louis-style BBQ" was more of a sauced-grilled style of cooking, whereas popular barbecue joints in the city these days such as Pappy's have converged towards Kansas City-style or Memphis-style traits of slow-smoked/sauced after cooking or on the side. Does anyone have any recommended BBQ places in the St. Louis area that do the older style of St. Louis BBQ?
My list of uniquely St. Louis dishes (so far; work in progress with new edits):
gooey butter cake (also, what are the most unique/interesting GBC flavors you've seen?) +
gooey butter donut
gooey butter cake ice cream/popsicle
gooey butter frozen yogurt (FroYo)
gooey butter cookie
gooey butter pie
gooey butter cheesecake
gooey butter cake soda (bottled, Excell brand)
gooey butter cake milkshake
gooey butter cake concrete
gooey butter tart
gooey butter cupcake
gooey butter macaron
gooey butter cookie ice cream sandwich
gooey butter ice cream float
gooey butter danish
Toasted ravioli (+ different flavors; has anyone seen dessert chocolate toasted ravioli anywhere?)
St. Paul sandwich (+ chili basil Thai St. Paul sandwich; any interesting takes on this by other Asians?)
St. Louis-style fried rice (fried with dark soy sauce; mundane perhaps, but still counts)
St. Louis-style pizza
Slinger (many variations/permutations)
BBQ St. Louis-style spare ribs (available nationwide now, but still counts as a St. Louis thing)
BBQ pork steak
BBQ pork snoot
fried tripe sandwich
frozen concrete
Gerber sandwich
Prosperity sandwich
Brain sandwich
Hot salami sandwich (Gioia's Deli etc.; this seems distinct from generic sandwiches with salami found outside STL)
specialty flavor kolaches from St. Louis Kolache (Pappy's BBQ, Gioia's Deli, "St. Louis Pizza", Meatball Provel)
stick pretzel (Gus's Pretzels; not sure if they were actually the first to make a pretzel in a stick shape like this, but I'm gonna eat it anyway)
steak/chicken/etc. modiga (breadcrumbs+Provel-based cream sauce)
fried chicken sandwich with Provel & Red Hot Riplets ("Mother Clucker" from Byrd & Barrel)
Lion's Choice roast beef sandwich with Provel
Mayfair dressing (O'Connell's)
Red Ho

My girlfriend and I recently moved in together. I invited my parents over for dinner so they could see the new apartment. I've had this spiral ham I got on sale in the freezer. I figured I'd roast it for dinner tonight. What side dishes could I make to go with it? I thought about mashed potatoes and a roasted vegetable like brussel sprouts, but I think I'd like to try something else and could use some ideas.
UPDATE:. Thank you for all your suggestions! I ended up making potatoes au gratin, collard greens, and cooked some green beans and garlic in a pan. Everything was great! The side dishes were actually better than the ham.
Title essentially explains it. I’m thinking about trying keto to lose body fat, but I’m having a hard time finding an extensive list of foods I can/can’t eat while on the diet. I’ve heard that a lot of greens are low carb, but there are a lot of greens that I don’t like tbh. But there’s also some I’ve never tried too.
I like most meats, so I feel like I’d be fine in that regard, because I know they have no carbs, as long as I can find some other vegetables and stuff to eat with them.
Also, I’m curious if any of you have like, altered any of the dishes you usually eat, substituted any things out to make them low carb.
In short, I want to attempt this diet, but I’m worried about not finding enough low-carb foods that I would like.
Sorry if I’m coming across as not knowing much, I haven’t done this before 🤷♂️
I'm debating if I even need one. My friends insist they are a must have. But I'm usually alone anyway and I have a handheld for the few times I join the group.
I’ve been cooking the same old recipes on rotation every couple weeks and want to learn how to make different foods. It can get a bit boring on the tastebuds. So to remedy that, I’ve been on the hunt for new recipes.
It could be delicious but with some different taste to our day to day food. I am not a foody guy, but want to know a lot so that I could also get it prepared at my home.
For example
Italian: Spaghetti, lasagna, ravioli, pesto, gnocchi
Mexican: Burritos, tacos, enchiladas, tostadas
American: Ribs, burgers, hot dogs
Then if you google that cuisine you might find dishes you've never heard of but sound great to add to your list.
This time of year, our local grocery store does a "buy a turkey, get a ham" promotion. So, we have an extra ham. Thankfully, we have a vacuum sealer, so I can portion it out and freeze it. However - I now have a lot of ham that's in the freezer! My husband can't eat egg dishes (quiche, etc), and I can't stand cauliflower. All the recipes I'm seeing online are a combination of those two. Any suggestions on how to use up all this ham and not be bored?
