*The bread rolls* in this video - I just used more or less the same dough recipe as the Pampushky (here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnjRpmiDidira7s ), minus the optional egg - and divided the dough into 4 instead of 8, rolled into balls first, then long pieces and rolled them in ground rice (semolina or polenta would also work) for that grainy sub crust texture. Proved until doubled in size, slashed with a sharp knife and baked at 200C for 20 minutes.

Hi Shrimp! I work in a well-known sandwich chain that also sells meatball subs - you know the one. We also offer a meatless version of our meatballs and I really like them. I think it'd make for a good side-by-side comparison video if you'd be interested in doing it with pre-prepared food.

Brown sugar is a nice addition to some tomato sauces - it reduces the acidity/sourness while also adding the musky molasses flavor. My kids prefer it over plain sugar and I usually don't need to add as much. Love the content and the channel. Cheers!

Another trick I learned in the States (for some reason a lot of the tinned tomatoes in NE can be quite acidic), is to drop a couple of peeled carrots into the sauce while it's cooking, and then remove and discard them afterwards (bit of a waste of a good carrot, so I'd use ones which were going a bit flaccid) I'm not sure if the carrots absorb the acidity, or if the sugars in the carrots get into the sauce and balance it, but they really improved the flavour without having to add sugar.

Yeah I like to add brown sauce wile cooking the onions when I make spag boll also I add a little towards end of cooking aswell. I'll tell you another good recipe with brown sauce, use the sauce to glaze sausages and onions in a oven tray cook untill sausages are cooked through then use them sausages and onions for a base for a casserole shove it in a slow cooker or casserole pot add potatoes carrots and what ever other veg you like I'd usually go for root veggies they seem the best for a casserole and cook in a low oven for a couple of hours or on the low setting of the slow cooker for couple of hours then serve with a crusty cob or bread 😊

One thing that I am curious about is the brand’s decision to specify that the product isn’t made from pork rather than simply meat-free/plant based. Perhaps I am just accustomed to the fake meatballs sold where I live, which don’t market themselves as a substitute for any particular type of meat.
@raraavis7782
@raraavis7782 2 жыл бұрын
It is rather weird...because meatballs aren't traditionally made from all pork - at least in Germany It's usually a beef/pork mix. Pork alone is too fatty and not flavorful enough. Whereas ground beef can be a little dry. I'd still take all beef over all pork, though.

I think it's because the brand uses the fact it's not pork, chicken or whatever as part of their branding. Probably because of the stupid argument some people say "why use the word chicken,pork or whatever it's trying to replicate when it's not". So they've literally made the brand "this isn't...." I suppose they could have put "this isn't meatballs" which sounds wrong regardless compared to these aren't meatballs. But perhaps they just wanted to purposely use pork in the name so they could mention a meat lol.

Speaking of substitutes for animal products...I'm not vegan, but I can't tolerate milk/lactose and have always bemoaned the fact, that there was no real substitute for full fat milk. Too sweet, too watery, too 'soybeanish'... nothing really worked for me. Well, guess what. Alpro just released a product called 'Shhh...this is not milk' and it's fantastic. There are two versions even, 1,5 and 3% fat and I swear, the 3% tastes almost as good as real full fat milk. I can just barely tell, it's not milk, but not even in a bad way. It's not just the taste, they got right, it's the mouthfeel...smooth, silky, slightly 'thicker' then water. Works great in coffee, too. It's 1,99€/l of course, which is a lot...but in this case, I'm willing to pay it. Highly recommend to anyone, who's looking to replace milk and isn't on a tight budget.

The fact that the UK is an island helps to moderate the temperature fluctuations over the year. In the middle of a large continent, you see more extremes of temperature than we do which impacts when your growing season starts. I noticed this year that lots of plants are in bloom now when 40 years ago it would have happened in May. Mild winter and global warming for you.

I'm in the UK but my mom lives in Poland. Vegetation really depends on what the plant is as well as when and how it is planted. My mom already picks green onions and chives from her garden, has some early flowers too. Her house is also filled with a ton of different seedlings (tomato, sprouting broccoli etc) which she sometimes takes out if it's warm enough to get some sun. Plants are much more complicated in their growing cycle that you think. 😄 You just need to know how to properly care for them.

Depending on how you think about “pork meatballs.” If you think of that phrase as the name of a dish, then “This Isn’t” would make sense. (For example, “this is not Grandma’s meatballs in tomato sauce” seems to make more sense, at least to me.) However, as was previously mentioned, it is a brand name, so unless the company gets copyright over both “This Isn’t” and “These Aren’t” you are going to have to put up with the incorrect grammar. :/

I’d recommend trying some of the recipes from Greg Easter’s “Vegetables for Carnivores”. Besides a very useful section on food chemistry, the chemist author's recipes make some very convincing meat substitutes and meaty meatless dishes. The Carrot Farrago recipe is one of my favorites, as it manages to turn carrots, red onion, and white beans into a very convincing ground meat substitute/stretcher with just a few simple seasonings through a novel prep method (I recommend tacos with it, as it uses cumin anyways).

Just a pity that where i live they are EXTREMELY fussy with what they will accept in the recycling Plastic bottles can go in the recycling Anything made of plastic that isn’t bottle shaped cannot go in the recycling for some weird reason, regardless of what type of plastic it is

True. With the trays and pots though, we collect them up and take them with us when we go shopping - the supermarket has a set of recycling bins that will accept trays, tetra cartons and generally a broader range of the plastic items that are not bottles

4:04 You said the sugar doesn't cancel the acidity. Have you tried neutralizing the acidity with a base? Chalk (E170) powder worked well for me, I really liked the deeper savory flavor of the tomatoes, not ruined by any sweetness.

You mentioned the meatballs thing smelled weird. The strangest thing happened to me when i stopped consuming meat some years ago. Whenever i smell meat cooking now, it absolutly reaks, especialy pork. Cooking pork absolutly reaks of 4 day old mackrel left out on the countertop

Something about the packaging especially the nonsense blurb turns me off. I dislike when brands try to be quirky just for the sake of it. I love the unbranded products in places like Canada that just have the name of the item and nutrition
