## Chef's Notes
|
||||
|
||||
I ought to make this one more often.
|
||||
It has very high [[utility]].
|
||||
|
||||
I think what stops me is the canned ingredients, which I never love
|
||||
and the foresight required to soak the beans
|
||||
(which I'd always prefer over buying canned).
|
||||
Now that I have room I just need to stock more of both.

# Coconut Shrimp
|
||||
|
||||
## Ingredients
|
||||
|
||||
* 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
|
||||
* 1/2 tsp. salt
|
||||
* 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper
|
||||
* 2 large eggs
|
||||
* 3/4 cup Panko bread crumbs
|
||||
* 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
|
||||
* 1 lb. raw large shrimp, peeled and deveined with tails attached
|
||||
* 3-4 Tbsp. vegetable oil, coconut oil, or olive oil
|
||||
|
||||
## Instructions
|
||||
|
||||
1. Set out 3 medium bowls.
|
||||
In the first, combine the flour, salt, and pepper.
|
||||
In the second, beat the eggs.
|
||||
In the third, combine the bread crumbs and coconut.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Utilizing the "wet hand, dry hand" method,
|
||||
coat the shrimp in the flour, then dip in the eggs,
|
||||
and then dredge the shrimp in the bread crumbs and coconut.
|
||||
Set the breaded shrimp aside on a plate as you dredge the rest.

||||
3. Add enough oil to cover the bottom of a large skillet over medium heat.
|
||||
Fry the shrimp in batches of 7-8 at a time.
|
||||
Flip after 2 minutes and fry the other side for 2 minutes or until golden brown.
|

4. Remove the fried shrimp to a plate lined with a paper towel as you fry the rest.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
* 2 cups finely ground cornmeal
|
||||
* 8 Tbsp. all purpose flour
|
||||
* 2 1/2 Tbsp. baking powder
|
||||

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
|
||||
|
||||
2. Add 1/4 cup oil to a 9 inch cast iron skillet over high heat.

|
||||
|
||||
4. When the skillet is thoroughly heated
|
||||

|
||||
Bake until golden and done throughout (25-30 minutes).

||||
Invert and return the cornbread to the skillet before serving.

# French Vanilla Ice Cream
|
||||
|
||||
## Ingredients
|
||||
|
||||
* 1 ½ cups whole milk
|
||||
* 1 ½ cups heavy cream
|
||||
* 1 tsp vanilla extract
|
||||
* ⅛ tsp salt
|
||||
* 4 large egg yolks
|
||||
* ⅔ cup granulated sugar
|
||||
|
||||
## Instructions
|
||||
|
||||
1. Add the milk, cream, vanilla, and salt to a sauce pan.
|
||||
Simmer over medium heat for 10 minutes.
|
||||
|
||||
2. While simmering,
|
||||
add the egg yolks and sugar to a medium mixing bowl and beat well,
|
||||
until the mixture becomes pale in color and has a smooth and airy texture.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Still simmering the dairy,
|
||||
add it one ladle at a time to the beaten eggs, continuing to whisk them constantly.
|
||||
|
||||
After a couple of ladles
|
||||
add the rest at once and mix well.
|
||||
|
||||
4. Pour the mixture back to the saucepan.
|
||||
Simmer over low heat until the mixture start to thicken
|
||||
and the internal temperature reaches 170-175°F
|
||||
(about 10 minutes).
|
||||
|
||||
5. Pour the mixture to a clean mixing bowl through a fine-mesh strainer.
|
||||
Allow the mixture to cool on the counter for 30 minutes,
|
||||
then cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled
|
||||
(at least 2 hours).
|
||||
|
||||
6. Churn the ice cream according to manufacturer's instructions
|
||||
|
||||
7. Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container
|
||||
and freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.

## Sub-Recipes

|
||||
### Mint Chocolate Chip
|
||||
|
||||
#### Mix-Ins
|
||||
|
||||
* 2 tsp. peppermint extract
|
||||
* 4 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips<sup>*</sup>
|
||||
|
||||
<sup>*</sup>added gradually in the last minutes of churning.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Notes
|
||||
|
||||
* The chocolate chips can be substituted
|
||||
with a finely chopped chocolate bar,
|
||||
providing a more interesting texture
|
||||
and a more "homemade" feeling result.
|
||||
Note that chopping the chocolate bar
|
||||
will be laborious and quite messy.
|
||||
|
||||
### Cookies and Cream
|
||||
|
||||
1 tsp. vanilla extract
|
||||
15 chocolate sandwich cookies<sup>*</sup>, broken into chunks
|
||||
|
||||
<sup>*</sup>BOD Oreo.
|
||||
|
||||
### Strawberry
|
||||
|
||||
#### Mix-ins
|
||||
|
||||
* 1 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, pureed
|
||||
* 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, diced and mashed
|
||||
|
||||
%%
|
||||
|
||||
#### Chef's Notes
|
||||
|
||||
Added to the three cups dairy,
|
||||
this is the perfect ratio of fruit,
|
||||
but it is too much volume for the churn.
|
||||
|
||||
May need to split this recipe
|
||||
to "fruit-ice-cream" or similar
|
||||
and rework the quantities.

# Ice Cream Making
|
||||
|
||||
## Terminology
|
||||
|
||||
### "Ice Cream"
|
||||
|
||||
Depending on who you ask,
|
||||
the presence of certain ingredients
|
||||
might disqualify a desert from being "ice cream".
|
||||
I tend to believe (sometimes begrudgingly)
|
||||
that the _popular_ definition is "correct",
|
||||
in this case that ice cream is everything that a normal person might call ice cream,
|
||||
which includes frozen custard, frozen yogurt, and gelato.
|
||||
|
||||
If I am referring specifically to egg-less ice cream,
|
||||
I will state as such.
|
||||
|
||||
### "Dairy"
|
||||
|
||||
In this note and my ice cream recipes,
|
||||
I use **dairy** to refer to the mixture of milk, creams,
|
||||
milk/cream mixtures (see [[#Half and Half]]),
|
||||
eggs, yogurt, what have you,
|
||||
that makes up the majority of the stuff that you put in the ice cream machine
|
||||
that, after churning, becomes ice cream.
|
||||
|
||||
## Churning
|
||||
|
||||
## Storage
|
||||
|
||||
### Containers
|
||||
|
||||
Churned ice cream needs to be stored in an airtight container,
|
||||
otherwise ice crystals will form and ruin the texture.
|
||||
|
||||
### Added Alcohol
|
||||
|
||||
The addition of alcohol before storage
|
||||
will lower the melting point of the ice cream,
|
||||
giving it a softer texture.
|
||||
This is especially helpful for certain recipes
|
||||
with large pieces of fruit or cookies,
|
||||
which can freeze hard and crunchy.
|
||||
|
||||
The recommended ratio is one tablespoon of spirit
|
||||
(usually vodka, brandy, or rum)
|
||||
to one cup of dairy.
|
||||
Add immediately after churning.
|
||||
|
||||
## Recipes
|
||||
|
||||
### Churn Time
|
||||
|
||||
Recipes frequently say to churn "according to manufacturer instructions"
|
||||
which is funny because my Cuisinart's instructions
|
||||
say to churn according to the particular recipe.
|
||||
|
||||
The secret is that it doesn't matter.
|
||||
The ice cream is done churning when it sticks to the hook
|
||||
and visually stops circulating.
|
||||
That is, it's done churning when it's done churning.
|
||||
|
||||
### Recipe Scale
|
||||
|
||||
Recipes rarely mention what volume churn they're intended for
|
||||
(although they might provide an Amazon affiliate link).
|
||||
|
||||
I have a Cuisinart ICE-21P1, a 1.5 quart model.
|
||||
Cuisinart does not give direction on maximum volume of un-churned ingredients.
|
||||
|
||||
When making [[homemade-ice-cream#Mint Chocolate Chip]],
|
||||
using three cups dairy and about a half cup of mix-ins,
|
||||
there was exactly enough capacity.
|
||||
Later when making [[homemade-ice-cream#Strawberry]]
|
||||
with three cups dairy and 1 3/4 cups mix-ins
|
||||
(at the direction of someone reporting success
|
||||
with the same model of churn)
|
||||
the batch overflowed aggressively.
|
||||
|
||||
### Half and Half
|
||||
|
||||
Ice cream recipes use a ratio of milk and cream
|
||||
in order to control the fat content of the result.
|
||||
Usually just milk and heavy cream,
|
||||
but some evil people prescribe **half and half**.
|
||||
|
||||
I rarely consume milk or cream, and they spoil quickly,
|
||||
so I'd prefer not to keep on hand
|
||||
any more milks of varying fat content than necessary.
|
||||
Luckily (as might be surmised from the name)
|
||||
half and half can be made at home,
|
||||
only not from half milk and half heavy cream
|
||||
(which are the dairy solutions I keep stocked).
|
||||
|
||||
Half and half is half milk and half _light_ cream.
|
||||
Light cream has about half the fat of heavy cream,
|
||||
so one part heavy cream to three parts whole milk
|
||||
is the correct ratio.
|
||||
|
||||
### Sugar
|
||||
|
||||
The source I referenced while writing [[homemade-ice-cream#Mint Chocolate Chip]]
|
||||
directs one to pre-whisk the sugar into the dairy,
|
||||
but other recipe sources, including mine for [[homemade-ice-cream#Strawberry]],
|
||||
just have you dump everything in the churn and hit go.
|
||||
I feel like this ought to be sufficient.

card primarily to pay for gas for my vehicle.</p>

<p>My understanding is that “Loan 40” is the friendly name of my credit
|
||||
card account ID, which ends in L40. In my statement for this card each
|

payment is shown as “Loan Payment from Share 70”. My checking account ID
|
||||
ends in S70.</p>
|
||||
<p>These payments occur on the 20th of every month, unless my balance on

# And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street
|
||||
|
||||
When I leave home to walk to school, \
|
||||
Dad always says to me, \
|
||||
"Marco, keep your eyelids up \
|
||||
And see what you can see."
|
||||
|
||||
But when I tell him where I've been \
|
||||
And what what I think I've seen, \
|
||||
He looks at me and sternly says, \
|
||||
"Your eyesight's much too keen.
|
||||
|
||||
"Stop telling such outlandish tales. \
|
||||
Stop turning minnows into whales."
|
||||
|
||||
Now, what can I say \
|
||||
When I get home today?
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
All the long way to school \
|
||||
And all the way back, \
|
||||
I've looked and I've looked \
|
||||
And I've kept careful track, \
|
||||
But all that I've noticed, \
|
||||
Except my own feet, \
|
||||
Was a horse and a wagon \
|
||||
On Mulberry Street.
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
That's nothing to tell of, \
|
||||
That won't do, of course . . . \
|
||||
Just a broken-down wagon \
|
||||
That's drawn by a horse.
|
||||
|
||||
That _can't_ be my story. That's only a _start_. \
|
||||
I'll say that a ZEBRA was pulling that cart! \
|
||||
And that is a story that no one can beat, \
|
||||
When I say that I saw it on Mulberry Street.
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
Yes, the zebra is fine, \
|
||||
But I think it's a shame, \
|
||||
Such a marvelous beast \
|
||||
With a cart that's so tame. \
|
||||
The story would really be better to hear \
|
||||
If the driver I saw were a charioteer. \
|
||||
A gold and blue chariot's _something_ to meet, \
|
||||
Rumbling like thunder down Mulberry Street!
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
No, it won't do at all... \
|
||||
A zebra's too small.
|
||||
|
||||
A reindeer is better; \
|
||||
He's fast and he's fleet,
|
||||
|
||||
And he'd look mighty smart \
|
||||
On old Mulberry Street.
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
Hold on a minute! \
|
||||
There's something wrong!
|
||||
|
||||
A reindeer hates the way it feels \
|
||||
To pull a thing that runs on wheels.
|
||||
|
||||
He'd be much happier, instead, \
|
||||
If he could pull a fancy sled.
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
Hmmmm . . . \
|
||||
A reindeer and sleigh . . .
|
||||
|
||||
Say---_anyone_ could think of that, \
|
||||
Jack or Fred ог Joe or Nat--- \
|
||||
Say, even Jane could think of _that_.
|
||||
|
||||
But it isn't too late to make one little change \
|
||||
A sleigh and an ELEPHANT! _There's_ something strange!
|
||||
|
||||
I'll pick one with plenty of power and size, \
|
||||
A blue one with plenty of fun in his eyes. \
|
||||
And then, just to give him a little more tone, \
|
||||
Have a Rajah, with rubies, perched high on a throne.
|
||||
|
||||
Say! That makes a story that _no one_ can beat, \
|
||||
When I say that I saw it on Mulberry Street.
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
But now I don't know... \
|
||||
It still doesn't seem right.
|
||||
|
||||
An elephant pulling a thing that's so light \
|
||||
Would whip it around in the air like a kite.
|
||||
|
||||
But he'd look simply grand \
|
||||
With a great big brass band!
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
A band that's so good should have someone to hear it, \
|
||||
But it's going so fast that it's hard to keep near it. \
|
||||
ГІЇ put on a trailer! I know they won't mind \
|
||||
If a man sits and listens while hitched on behind.
|
||||
|
||||
But now is it fair? Is it fair what I've done? \
|
||||
I'll bet those wagons weigh more than a ton. \
|
||||
That's really too heavy a load for one beast; \
|
||||
I'll give him some helpers. He needs two, at least.
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
But now what worries me is this . . \
|
||||
Mulberry Street runs into Bliss.
|
||||
|
||||
Unless there's something I can fix up, \
|
||||
There'll be an awful traffic mix-up!
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
It takes Police to do the trick, \
|
||||
То guide them through where traffic's thick--- \
|
||||
It takes Police to do the trick.
|
||||
|
||||
They'll never crash now. They'll race at top speed \
|
||||
With Sergeant Mulvaney, himself, in the lead.
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
The Mayor is there \
|
||||
And the Aldermen too, \
|
||||
All waving big banners \
|
||||
Of red, white and blue.
|
||||
|
||||
The Mayor is there \
|
||||
And he thinks it is grand, \
|
||||
And he raises his hat \
|
||||
As they dash by the stand.
|
||||
|
||||
And that is a story that NO ONE can beat \
|
||||
When I say that I saw it on Mulberry Street!
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
With a roar of its motor an airplane appears \
|
||||
And dumps out confetti while everyone cheers
|
||||
|
||||
And that makes a story that's really not bad! \
|
||||
But it still could be better. Suppose that I add . . . . . . .
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
A Chinaman \
|
||||
Who eats with sticks. . . .
|
||||
|
||||
A big Magician \
|
||||
Doing tricks . . .
|
||||
|
||||
A ten-foot beard \
|
||||
That needs a comb. . . .
|
||||
|
||||
No time for more, \
|
||||
I'm almost home.
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
I swung 'round the corner \
|
||||
And dashed through the gate, \
|
||||
I ran up the steps \
|
||||
And I felt simply GREAT!
|
||||
|
||||
FOR I HAD A STORY THAT **NO ONE** COULD BEAT! \
|
||||
AND TO THINK THAT I SAW IT ON MULBERRY STREET!
|
||||
|
||||
But Dad said quite calmly, \
|
||||
"Just draw up your stool \
|
||||
And tell me the sights \
|
||||
On the way home from school."
|
||||
|
||||
There was so much to tell, I JUST COULDN'T BEGIN! \
|
||||
Dad looked at me sharply and pulled at his chin. \
|
||||
He frowned at me sternly from there in his seat, \
|
||||
"Was there nothing to look at . . . no people to greet? \
|
||||
Did _nothing_ excite you or make your heart beat?"
|
||||
|
||||
\
|
||||
|
||||
"Nothing," I said, growing red as a beet, \
|
||||
"But a plain horse and wagon on Mulberry Street."

It's tempting to use ground chicken or dilute the broth
|

to save a couple bucks on ingredients,
|

but I advise strongly against it.
|

This is not an especially flavorful dish to begin with,

||||
Certainly don't do both in the same batch.

That's a recipe for food that will make you sad to eat.

|
||||
|
||||
My dad frequently tells me how people (especially immigrants)
|
||||
are taking undue advantage of welfare and other government programs.
|
||||
His favorite example right now is the "Somali daycare fraud".
|
||||
He tries to bait me into agreeing that these people are lazy or selfish.
|
||||
It's a frustrating line of argument,
|
||||
especially from a man I know is intelligent,
|
||||
because the blame is so obviously misplaced.
|
||||
It's not logical to criticize the abusers of government aid
|
||||
that you already believed was inappropriate.
|
||||
Despite benefiting from regulation in every aspect of his life,
|
||||
he fancies himself a small government type.
|
||||
For a libertarian like he claims to be,
|
||||
abuse of government programs
|
||||
is just a symptom of the real problem,
|
||||
that the programs exist in the first place.
|
||||
|
||||
Complaining about something directly offensive to your personal sensibilities
|
||||
is just whining,
|
||||
and whining is a net negative for yourself and potential supporters,
|
||||
since it negatively impacts perception of your cause.
|
||||
Only the people responsible for the offense are unaffected,
|
||||
they may even be benefited by your tantrum,
|
||||
if (by pouting) you get the relief of catharsis,
|
||||
and don't actually do anything about the real problem.
|
||||
|
||||
Turning whining into belief requires considering
|
||||
* why the the thing you don't like happens,
|
||||
* what could be done to stop it from happening,
|
||||
* what the secondary impacts of the solution would be,
|
||||
* if the result is even worth the cost.
|
||||
These are the bare minimum for discussing societal,
|
||||
or even just organizational issues.
|
||||
Until you have done them all several times
|
||||
and understand the problem from all sides,
|
||||
keep that shit to yourself.

## Utility for Meal Planning
|

|
||||
Would you take this offer?
|
||||
|
||||
> You can no longer eat or drink,
|
||||
> but you no longer need to to survive.
|
||||
|
||||
I wouldn't, but I've known people who would.
|
||||
I've also known people like the villain from _Ratatouille_
|
||||
that would never eat something just for the calories.
|
||||
I'd say I lean more towards the first,
|
||||
certainly my interest in cooking
|
||||
is one of cost optimization,
|
||||
not expressing myself through the medium of food.
|
||||
|
||||
Taste does matter to me though,
|
||||
I realized this recently while eating particularly bland [[stroganoff]].
|
||||
Novelty of taste as well,
|
||||
which is why I rotate through recipes
|
||||
rather than just picking my favorite.[^1]
|
||||
But the value of taste declines sharply above a certain point.
|
||||
|
||||
[^1]: Internalized social stigma probably deserves more credit there,
|
||||
but the outcome is the same.
|
||||
|
||||
For me, a recipe with high [[utility]]
|
||||
is tasty, cheap, _and_ convenient to prepare.

|

I have this idea that people generally respond better to a good analogy
|
||||
than to a well-reasoned argument,
|
||||
so I'm frequently disappointed in myself
|
||||
for being unable to come up with one.
|
||||
|
||||
It ought to be easy for me.
|
||||
When I'm sure of something,
|
||||
my certainty invariably manifests in the form of an analogy,
|
||||
only the parallel concepts are just that,
|
||||
and they resist my attempts to define them.
|
||||
|
||||
I feel now that this judgement might be baseless anyway.
|
||||
Without the pressure of organizational enforcement,
|
||||
radical changes in thinking necessarily take years of incremental changes.
|
||||
No matter how much better the new framework is,
|
||||
a person must work up to the change,
|
||||
otherwise their trust in it will be hollow.
|
||||
At least that has been my experience in the past few years;
|
||||
knowing that a shovel is better for digging ditches,
|
||||
but still using a gardening trowel
|
||||
because it's what I'm comfortable with.
|
||||
It doesn't frustrate me when others use trowels,
|
||||
only when they can't acknowledge the benefits of the shovel.
|
||||
|
||||
Like that one, most of the analogies I want to make
|
||||
would be intended to demonstrate why an action would be foolish.
|
||||
It would be fitting to write in [anapestic tetrameter](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anapestic_tetrameter)
