My company will move to another neighborhood and I'm already checking the cafes and bakeries near the new address for lunch.

With the summer heat rolling in, I'm returning to my usual summer recipes. Hiyashi tofu is my favorite, just soft tofu, some katsuoboshi, green onion, maybe grated daikon if I have it, and a bit of mentsuyu.
Smoothie bowls and various cold noodle dishes are also favorites.

Do nonnas have their own summer favorites that don't require standing over heat for too long?

Just saw a Reddit post about how the quality of store-bought root vegetables is becoming worse recently and damn I feel not insane anymore. Everything is so low quality these days and sprouts a day after you buy it. Of course no store has really fresh produce but I swear it was at least a bit better back then. I've started buying produce and eggs from farms directly or sources not too far from them and it's been life changing, I don't mind paying a little extra sometimes when they need the money.

Sometimes this happens to me but sometimes not. It's just a toss up tbh. I assume it's because obviously stores use different vendors or farmers and occasionally you just get a low quality batch or a batch that is a bit old than the store portrays it as

An Ausfag and I've noticed this too. I get my produce mostly from this service that delivers produce rejected by supermarkets to your door each week (usually because they aren't the right size or shaped weird) and it's actually been the best quality produce I've had in yonks. You're getting it directly from and supporting local farmers too.
I wouldn't suggest it if you're a by-the-book recipe follower, but if you can usually whip up things with whatever you have on hand then it's great.

I made ramen following a nytimes for kidsrecipe and it came alright. The only problem is that I didn't have garlic and the recipe asked for a garlic/ginger combo. The broth I used had garlic in it, but the ginger overpowered it.

AYRT and I'm shocked it isn't because it's such a good service. And this way everyone's still making a profit. I think the concept of produce looking desirable is fucking insane and I have to wonder if anyone actually cares about this? Like are there people out there who don't want to eat a cucumber that's a weird shape or an eggplant with an extra digit?
Reminds me of a reel I saw once of a burger woman who said she didn't know the lemons in the tree in her backyard were edible. Americans truly have no concept of where their food comes from or how it's produced.

Not really when you look at where population density lies, most of the rural farmland is not heavily occupied and the lack of access to spaces for growing your own food is an actual issue for a lot of the American population, even if an individual had a desire to.
Americans are not as alienated from food sources as >>2485290 would imply, but when it comes to how 90% of our food arrives on the table and the mechanics of industry that facilitate that, they are actually unaware. This isn't a rag on Americans in particular, but a testament to food production in a modern economy of scale. Even the upbringing of your average potato looks nothing like how you'd imagine it to be as a need for minimal waste with maximum profit (yes, a lot of food does get thrown out for not merting standards, but it is within a company's best interests to make sure as much of the food meets standards as possible) entails highly complex and even automated systems of agriculture.
I hope this doesn't sound like scaremongering as I don't think this is inherently bad– to support the demand of modern populations accustomed to largely having whatever they want available to them, whenever they want, this evolution is necessary. I don't know why people take such offense to the insinuation that they don't actually know where their food comes from. You generally hardly know how your water, the materials that go into your clothes, or the furniture in your home, were produced, either, unless you're in the very small minority who are fully self-reliant. That's how things are these days.

I don't have a picture because I invented it. I use leftover rotisserie chicken or shawarma, I boil some vegetables like carrots and cabbage, add chicken broth/bouillon, salt and pepper, Italian seasoning, and rosemary and let it all boil. Then add your chicken and lastly some cream or milk for texture and some cheese. I make this soup when I feel sick. I add onion and garlic and some aromatics like ginger, cinnamon, cloves and cardamom too for extra flavor and health benefits.

True, but it just tastes so nasty. Like death. I'm ok with munching on a bone or cartilage along with the meat on accident while I'm eating a chicken leg or something, but eating them on their own and as the main thing is so gross to me. I already grew up on sheep bone broth and I HATED it, it's so nasty. My mom used to make it with salt and pepper only! It tasted awful.

Tim Hortons is pretty disliked by significant portion of Canadians these days because of dog shit quality. And iced caps are even worse than a frozen coffee lol because when they blend it, the flavoring doesn't always mix well enough and you get this gross very minimally coffee-flavored slush at the bottom

Have nonnies ever had the experience of one specific person having gastrointestinal issues after eating your food despite everyone else having no problems? I just made breakfast (pancakes, sausage, eggs) for the family for Easter and my one aunt just ran to the bathroom to puke it up. She said my tamales made her have the runs too. I just don't get it, outside her gut flora being so fucked from her diet of 100% fast food slop.

That's a tough combo, but I've actually used it before for psuedo-burritos/wraps:
>cook chicken as appropriate for its cut w/ cumin + whatever mexican spices you want to add
>cut sweet potatoes into whatever shapes you want, coat in oil and a bit of cinnamon, and bake until they're done
>cook some black beans on the stovetop w/ sauteed onions and garlic unless you're being lazy, bay leaf, crappy chicken or vegetable bullion, cumin, mexican or regular dried oregano, onion and garlic powder if you want, and a tiny dash of vinegar. if you're feeling adventurous, you can use lard for the alliums
>cut the cabbage into very, very thin slivers and massage a bit so they become less stiff
>serve w/ wrap or tortilla of your preference, steamed so it's not brittle

You could also potentially do a stir fry or grain/rice bowl with a tahini and maple sauce, or maple and miso.

Made some goulash-ish beef. About a kg of meat and two onions browned aggressively on maximum heat. Spiced mostly with paprika powder, some cumin, ground anis, cinnamon and potato concentrate. Cooked in leftover frozen beef bone stock I made for Stroganoff a few weeks ago. Cooked for about 3 hours, could have used another hour for the meat to be even more tender. Very flavorful.

6 minutes is the golden minute for soft boiled eggs, dunk it in a ice bath to stop the cooking and it always comes out perfectly. Sorry if this is common sense but I am easily amazed at how consistent I'm getting soft runny yolks. Combo it with some sourdough toast and its a match made in heaven, delish

It's a throw blanket so I can hide my table/counter/apartment details.

I made a really dank curry tonight in my rice cooker. Premade some rice lightly salted with a touch of sesame oil and then drizzle it with a little mirin and top with avocado and covered it with a bowl. The not at all secret key is using coconut cream (or oil I guess) and starting out by heating it until the oil begins to separate. Then I mixed two different types of curry paste when it seemed like one might be on the sweeter side and one may be on the spicier side. Added gently chopped and pestled lemongrass, garlic, super sweet shallot-like onions from the food bank and then another splash of coconut cream.
Then some red carrots, defrosted 41-50 shrimp, and covered everything with a layer of chopped mustard greens. I forgot to add green onion or get roti, I just inhaled it. It's going to taste even better tomorrow, I'm in love, this is self love.
