What the fuck is american food?
Boiled pearl onions, a shitty bechamel, and bagged pre-grated cheese, obviously.
And burgers. Tons of burgers.
You could make s better version of this with the same damn ingredients. Do like fried onions au gratin with bechemel or something. It’s not great but it’s not otherworldly. I will kill anyone who boils an onion.
Or roast them like brussel sprouts, but no
we’re boiling them!I’m surprised the recipe doesn’t call for frozen ones lol
My family boils whole onions for “puchero”, a kind of zero-effort soup.
They also boil whole onions for bagna cauda. The broth is later used for soup
do you have a recipe for bagna cauda? don’t see any with onions in them on the first page of google search, curious what you are making :9
Bagna cauda is a simple garlic+anchovies+cream sauce and you dip whatever you like in it, for example cooked or raw onions, baked potatoes, brocoli, cauliflower, carrots, grisines, etc
The only “secret” I can give you for the sauce is to add grinded walnuts at the end and then some nutmeg.
My theory is that if you remove the contributions of poc from American cuisine, it’d be seen on the same tier as British “food”. The only people propping white American food would be the Italians and Greeks but even they weren’t considered white when they arrived.
French cooking can be pretty good.
What the fuck is half and half?
It’s between cream and milk - usually used for people to put in coffee. IDK why anyone would cook with it.
It’s used in recipes that need a lot of fat, but less than whipping cream.
IDK why anyone uses it for coffee.
IDK why anyone uses it for coffee.
s do it and often with an artificial sugar substitute lolI’ve tried it, adding 2 more shots of espresso barely made it drinkable.
I have a relative that makes her coffee like 50% half and half, she buys several of the large containers at a time.
Mixes better than cream. More flavor/fat than milk.
It’s a white people thing. I didn’t know it was strange until I left my parents house lol.
when the flavor profile is: fat
“I put a roux on onions and call it a
recipe”Half-and-half is half whole milk and half heavy cream mixed together. The name of it sounded really synthetic so I never wanted it until I found out what it was, and even then I would just buy whole milk and cream separately.
Half-and-half is half whole milk and half heavy cream mixed together.
It’s more like two thirds and one third - if you actually made it with half of each it would have too high a fat content for US regulations.
They have specific regulations for half-and-half?

Anyone cooking creamed vegetables with half and half does not deserve your funding, vote, or sympathy. Death to America.
Imagine being however many decades old Tim’s mum is, and still not knowing how to cook.
Making a shitty bechamel is ahead of the curve tbh. Lots of Americans would just use processed Velveeta cheese.
“You’ll cream over these creamed onions. I know I did.”
boomers lay waste to everything they touch
Leave nothing behind for future generations
Can’t even make a decent meal
If you’re gonna catch the last fish, chop the last tree, pollute the rivers and make the air hard to breathe, at least make something edible ffs this is making me extremely depressed.
Impressive that it contains no Cream of Whatever soup
It’s basically a recipe for cream of onion
soupcasserole.
This is what the “serious people” are up to.
Yes, Tim Kaine, I do want you to shut the fuck up about creamed onion.
Half and half is that bullshit “for cooking” diluted cream they are selling these days.
It’s so I can convince myself I’m not packing 10,000 calories into a single dish. Only 7,500 or so.
Sorry to spam in here, but I’d be okay with a dish brimming with onions, smothered in bechemel and cheese. But this?! this isn’t just sad, this is [Great] Depression.
Same
exactly, there’s no flavor. just plain bechamel and cheese? what the [REDACTED]
True. At least caramelize the onions fist. I’ll eat a pound of fried onions any day, any time.
“Grated cheese” irks me. There are multiple kinds of cheese. Even if we’re going by packs of pre-shredded cheese, there are multiple kinds of those, and not even at the grocery stores where Tim Kaine shops, but at the grocery stores where Tim Kaine voters shop, too. Cheddar, mozz, jack, what is it?
Grated casu martzu
He just wants to make cheese grate again.
Salt to taste irks me. There are multiple amounts of salt. /s
You’re right though, imagine adding some Vieux Boulogne or some other type with an immense stink. Cooking it would empty kitchen for sure.
