I want some pickled red onions now. I wonder if I can buy just one mason jar at walmart.

[Momogari]

Can you get jicama where you are or no?

let me come up with the salad.

ok

[Momogari]

put black garlic on it

i call it the "bet it all on black" garlic burger

btw what is black garlic
/looks it up
oh, aged garlic
interesting; I've never had it.

Can you get jicama where you are or no?

Jicama is probably not available in any local store, but it's quick to get on Amazon it seems.

I have Asian and European local stores where I live.

[Momogari]

that's ok it looks like you can use green apples as a substitute, which would be a little sweeter but that might work well

[Momogari]

actually I wonder if I can even get jicama easily anymore. I am no longer in california >_>

[unoduetre]

OK, cool. Do you like coconut? If yes, we can make nariyal chawal (a rice dish) as a far as rice is concerned.

It's fine. It's 1 day delivery on Amazon.

I love coconut but raw coconuts are terrible to work with and canned coconut is only really good for curry. You'd have to convince me something fierce. If it's just coconut flavoring, I'd be wary of it anyway. Coconut flavored rice often comes out terribly.





What do you think of this salad? measures tbd

red onions
fresh cold corn
jicama (if you can't get it, green apple)
cucumber half-slices
napa cabbage in little bite-sized pieces (green cabbage if no napa)
all pickled in rice vinegar (if you don't have it, white vinegar, or if it's too expensive, 50/50 mix maybe? should be fine) at least overnight with some sugar, salt, and rosemary.

I wonder if walnuts would be good in this salad too

[unoduetre]

I usually use apple vinegar because I have a jug of it. So I'll probably use this. But besides that, sounds good.

Can I use canned sweet corn?

Which type of cabbage?

[Momogari]

Napa probably be best since it's a vinegar thing. It grew into a sunomono kinda deal but with more sharp flavors than sweet. green cabbage is probably the next best.

canned sweet corn should be fine but I think I'll...shit I'm making this salad part at the place I live, so I guess I'll probably do that too :/
If I had an opportunity at my parent's kitchen before then I'd buy fresh local corn and cut it off the cob.

The narial chawal recipe I have uses coconut shreds. This is something available in the baking section usually. Is it available for you?

If you don't like the idea of the coconut rice, I have some other rice recipes.

[Momogari]

yeah that's available, but it really doesn't sound appealing to me.

[unoduetre]

OK, what about baked rice with apples etc.? I have a recipe for that as well.
