Marinated Mushrooms

<< < (2/3) > >>

Josh:
Marinara is a funny word. Also, one big chain store is trying to come up with ways to beat aldi prices, they're spending 6B as in billion on getting their vendors to drastically cut prices because of aldi spreading and the upcoming lidl chain that makes aldis look pricey.

Today I used mushrooms.

Chopped 'em up. Mixed with ground beef, veal, & pork, chopped leek, sweet paprika, half-sharp paprika, fresh ground black pepper, thyme, rosemary, oregano, a couple of other spices, eggs, and five cloves of garlic.

Made meatballs. Once in a rough spherical shape, then put a lot more sweet paprika on the outside.

Put on the pellet smoker on smoke for about 50 mins (hickory), then cranked up to 350 for 18 minutes util the temp probes said they're done. Came out perfect. Juicy, papriky, and mmmmmm. 

Had a few mushrooms left over, so put 'em on a skewer, with olive oil drizzled on 'em and smoked with the meatballs.


Mushrooms, is there anything they can't be eaten with?

Years ago, when Food Network ran the original Japanese "Iron Chef" show as maybe 25% of their total programming (well before Guy Fieri showed up), mushrooms was the main ingredient, and the chairman, in his pompous dubbed remarks at the beginning, quoted Brillat-Savarin on mushrooms as saying "never let them take a bath." (Which came out very memorably, the way the dubbing actor said it. Bath was pronounced "bahth.") He didn't really explain why, but basically you're supposed to just wipe them with a damp cloth or paper towel.

Yeah, I don't know either. I just like to cook them in melted butter and add them to my steak.

Pigmeat:
A lot of people who do English dubbing in Asian TV shows and movies are Aussie and Kiwi voice actors. That long flat "A" in bath is one of the sounds that give the Aussies away.

One of the funnier things I ever witnessed was an Aussie trying to order tacos at a Taco Bell one early morning in the early 80's. He asked for "tackos", the kids working there were going "What?" He finally started yelling "Tackos, dammit, tackos! This is a Tacko Bell, isn't it?" Everyone in the place lost it when he pitched that fit.

MDK2:
We truly live in an age of wonders. One google search and here's that sage advice, with the explanation as to why you never let your mushrooms take a bahth. Heads up Chris!
