I made these after the perfect storm of: 1) homemade ketchup to use up and 2) finding this classic feves au lard pot at a garage sale (on the Quebec side of course!). 

The classic pot has a wide belly and a narrow top, which I think is so that the liquid only slowly evaporates. If the pot you use has a wider mouth, you may find that your liquid evaporates quicker and so you need to cover it earlier in the process. 🔥

The heart of this is that you want to stew the beans in the delicious sauce for a full 4 hours so that they get beautifully tender and absorb the flavours. On the other hand you want the liquid to evaporate by the end so that it becomes like a sauce. If it evaporates too quickly, your beans will burn instead of stewing. So that is the balance you have to strike with how much of your cooking is covered vs uncovered. And you may have to add some water during the process if you miscalculate. No big deal though, this dish just takes patience.

So worth it. 👌👌👨‍🍳

That’s 4 months of guessing these mises! So, so cool.🙏😎

So to mark this anniversary during bean and pulse week, today is a Canadian special (although many other places do have similar recipes for sure!) 😊😊

Looking forward to your thoughts. Good luck today everybody!!! 🫵🧑‍🍳🧙‍♂️

Back with the recipe later 🥳🥳. Until then, sticky out.

The word mujadarra means something like “pockmarked” in Arabic, since the lentils look like speckles throughout the rice. 🤔 I think they look like something tastier like pepper flecks or sprinkles, but nobody asked me when they made this name. ANYWAY one day at a time, we’re going to be speaking some languages here as a group 👌📖

A couple of key ratios: Green lentils and rice each need 2x their volume in water; there is a little bit extra water to account for what will boil off. Key timingL Green lentils need to boil for 20-30 minutes and rice needs to boil for 12-15 minutes, so split into something like 10 and then 15 is perfect.

Also, here is the recipe to save if you’d like. I’ll start posting these in the evenings now. If you have any feedback about the format of the recipes, I would be very happy to hear it 🙏🙏 - https://culinary-bytes.ca/recipe.html?recipe=mujadarra

Thanks for participating today u/Rough_Back_1607, u/CrazyNefariousness85, u/lizlemon921, u/need_more_coffee_plz and u/helpmetolearn AND very excited for your black eyes peas reveal tonight Nefariousness!!

Until tomorrow…Sticky out.

Excellent work yesterday everybody. And what a cool day with the posts from /u/helpmetolearn and /u/CrazyNefariousness85!!!

For today, we are moving to a dish that does have a specific name. Even if you don’t have the same idea as I did, what would YOU do with these ingredients? 🤔

Good luck today everybody!!! 🫵🧑‍🍳🧙‍♂️

This is so similar to daal, and if we had stopped before the refrigeration, it would have been! But if you stick to a 2 liquid:1 lentil ratio, and you refrigerate the mixture, you can turn it into snack balls!

Thanks so much for participating today u/ShotWin8124, u/Rough_Back_1607, u/need_more_coffee_plz, u/CrazyNefariousness85, u/helpmetolearn, u/bizarreapple, u/JWDed, u/saltyoperasinger, and u/Just_An_Avid. You guys are the best! And it seems like you’ll be full of lentil and beans ideas for this week!! 😊😊

Also, so looking forward to see what one does with black eyed peas! 🥳🥳

Until tomorrow…Sticky out!

Well thanks to u/OliBoliz, I have landed on a beans and lentil kick that will give us this week’s recipes 😊😊🙏🙏

This dish doesn’t have a name, and boy are there possibilities. So what would YOU do with them? Can’t wait to show you what I did with them later. 😊

Good luck today everybody!!! 🫵🧑‍🍳🧙‍♂️

Back with the recipe later 🥳🥳. Until then, sticky out.

In Dutch koolsla translates directly to cabbage salad - so we all speak a little more dutch than we knew!

Just a couple pointers I picked up about coleslaw and its dressings - For the classic dressing, this is MORE acidic than a typical salad vinaigrette (which is usually more oil than vinegar); here it is 2 vinegar:1 oil - crunchy cabbage likes the acid which wilts it nicely. For the creamy dressing, it is 2 mayonnaise:1 sour (mustard plus vinegar). In both cases, 2 tbsp of dressing per cup of vegetables.

Okay, enough ratios and onto the thank you! I can’t thank you individually today, and I can never thank you enough, but I just want to say it is so amazing to have you guys here. Thank you everyone!

Until tomorrow…Sticky out!

Looks like TWO recipes today....or is it a variation on a theme? 🧐🧐🤔

I won’t be around much today, but looking forward to checking out your responses later. 😊😊 Good luck today everybody!!! 🫵🧑‍🍳🧙‍♂️

Back with the recipe later 🥳🥳. Until then, sticky out.

I forget where I got this recipe from, but I know it is only slightly modified from a book that I saw at Chapter’s and I’m pretty sure the guy on the front was quite buff. So You can’t go wrong eating these is what I learned.

Also, they really are delicious - they have a more rustic texture than typical pancakes, with a bite that pancakes lack, but if you’re willing to give up the fluffy for one day I would highly recommend giving them a shot!!

The key ratio here: 3 cottage cheese: 2 oats; then there are 3 eggs, 3 tsp of flax and 3 tsp of baking powder per cup of oats; add a bit of vanilla and cinnamon and you have your recipe!

I’m away from the keyboard today, so I am unable to list you guys individually today, but thanks so much for participating everyone!!! I love everything that you continuously bring to the table. Thanks for being awesome!!!! 😊😊🙏🙏

Until tomorrow…Sticky out!

This one may not be too difficult, ESPECIALLY after you guys aced a related one last week. 🫵🧑‍🍳🧙‍♂️ But sometimes we have to GTM even when its easy, right 😊? Also, I do have a recipe for the cookies sitting on the sidelines just waiting to be posted, so may do a cookie week sometime. 

ANYWAY, I’m looking forward to your thoughts today! Good luck today everybody!!! 🫵🧑‍🍳🧙‍♂️

Back with the recipe later 🥳🥳. Until then, sticky out.

Oh hey, sticky here again 🫣

I found this pretty cool way to turn the guess the mise/recipe images together into slideshow videos. I would appreciate your thoughts. I want to post these elsewhere but would ask your opinions first. Thanks everyone!

THC stands for tomato, honey and cheese of course. But I should warn that this is absolutely a drug, for my family anyway! 🤦😊

I just love the fantastic ideas that come out here. Tomato tofu parmigiana 👌👌Also, blended beige and white MUST be on a cocktail menu somewhere too 😊😆

Also, the turnout this week has been fantastic 😊😊😊 Thank you all so much for participating u/Rough_Back_1607, u/helpmetolearn, u/need_more_coffee_plz, u/mclarkmadison, u/CrazyNefariousness85 , u/vodka_tsunami and u/bizarreapple I love that you guys keep this so interesting!

Until tomorrow…Sticky out!

Alright everybody, day 4 of cottage/vacation recipes. 😎 This one doesn’t have a name, so what would YOU do with it? 🧐🧐🤔

So looking forward to your thoughts. Good luck today everybody!!! 🫵🧑‍🍳🧙‍♂️

Back with the recipe later 🥳🥳. Until then...Sticky out!

The step of drying the beans out in the oven really helps to get a firmer texture; often bean patties are more mushy and this is the way to fix that! A key ratio that I like is 4 beans: 1 oats:1 hemp hearts:1 cheese with 1/2 an egg per cup of beans. Each patty needs and 1/3 cup of beans. 

I wish I had some sort of linguistic or history lesson today, but couldn’t think of the angle for that one. Soooo…fantastic work today everybody and thanks so much for participating u/Rough_Back_1607, u/need_more_coffee_plz, u/helpmetolearn, u/CrazyNefariousness85 and u/bizarreapple! You guys are awesommmmmee!!!!! 😊😊🙏🙏

Until tomorrow…Sticky out! 🥳🥳

Alright, I feel that we’re really back in the swing of things now 🥳🥳 Looking forward to your thoughts on this one 🧐!

Good luck today everybody!!! 🫵🧑‍🍳🧙‍♂️

Although I for one make a mental French association with quiche, they are in fact from the region at the border of France and Germany. The name “quiche” is of German derivation, with “kuchen” meaning something like tart. 

One point that I find useful is for quiche, the ratio of eggs to dairy is 4 eggs per cup; this is compared to a frittata, which is much more egg-heavy, using more like 4 eggs per 2 tbsp. Thanks for bringing this up u/PistachioGal99!! 

Also, what an awesome turnout today! Thank you for participating u/Rough_Back_1607, u/PistachioGal99, u/saltyoperasinger, u/helpmetolearn, u/need_more_coffee_plz, u/CrazyNefariousness85, u/Bhamrentalhelp and u/bizarreapple. You guys are the best!!!! 😊😊🙏🙏

Until tomorrow, with some more vacation recipes….sticky out!!
