Chicago Style Butter Cookies
Simple butter cookie recipe. #buttercookies
Butter cookies, also known as shortbread cookies, are one of the best treats for the Fall and Winter season, holidays, or celebrations.  Growing up in Chicago, butter cookies were always a staple snack for school lunch.  These tasty and addictive treats were commonly sold throughout Chicago’s local neighborhoods and were enjoyed during the Winter season.  Today I will show you how to make these…

Our local Supervalu supermarket has a small but totally authentic Italian section, and @dduane bought this flour to try it out.
She prepared enough dough - once divided up - for three pizze, and the first one (Friday) was so remarkably good that it was half-consumed and thoroughly non-photogenic before either of us said "Pix...?"
So here are a couple of shots of what happened next (Saturday). Instead of pizza, Flammkuchen.
Dish from Alsace, recipe from Switzerland, flour from Italy, sour cream from Lithuania, smoked pork belly from Poland, onions from Ireland, cook from USA.
Tumblr media
Today (Sunday) was pizza again, to finish the last ball of prepared dough, and it was nearly * as good as the first time.
This time, photos!
Tumblr media
* Three days is enough for any one batch of dough, even when kept in the fridge. It no longer stretches as well, so this pizza crust didn't develop a nice puffy edge the way the first one did.
An insignificant niggle, noted for next time. Make and use immediately for best effect.
The imbalanced layout of the onions...
Tumblr media
...is so DD can avoid eating too many and annoying her IBS.
So, onto the peel and into the oven (10 mins / 230°C).
Tumblr media
Out of the oven...
Tumblr media
...and into the diners.
Tumblr media
Yum!
We're DEFINITELY going to buy more of that flour.

Honestly, ppl make bread too complicated
Yeast this additives that, rising time, kneading, moisture content whatevs
And sure, there's def a science behind it, but you can actually make pretty simple bread.
Take flour, take water, get some salt and something to flavor it with (herbs, spices or even bouillon cubes will do in a pinch) and some fat. Mix flour with flavorings, mix in some fat like oil or butter, then add water and knead. How much? Whatever feels right.
Shape it into disks, fry in a pan. no need to bother with temperatures, just put it somewhat high.
Bam! Bread.
It's a great recipe for when you have barely anything left in your pantry or when basically everything is too expensive. You don't need anything fancy to make it. Just flour, fat and fluid. Flavorings are optional but recommended.
Remember the formula: flour, fluid, fat and flavoring = flatbread (FFFF=F)

So seriously: if you have a serious recoil/disgust factor at uncommonly eaten parts of an animal being in any kind of food context (eg: whole fish being served at a table) and you want to work on minimizing that reaction, I really really recommend eating "normal" versions of those unusual foods, like for example deli-sliced tongue. I know I'm talking out of my ass here, but things like liver and haggis (organ meat), tongue (tongue), and probably a whole lot of others I've never had can be pretty easily made into forms that taste real good and don't look much like a weird lump of flesh you can recognize, and being able to get from "that's weird and gross but I want to get it" to "that's weird but it tastes really good and I want to get it" will probably make building up momentum easier when you move on to less "common" pastures.
Good luck, by the way. I believe in you.

(since you reblogged the bother me with asks things, i’m sending you an ask instead of texting)
i feel like biscuits shouldn’t be allowed to have stuff in them
(there’s context for this but i think it’s funnier without)
The following assumes you are talking about the American biscuit and not the British biscuit. I have opinions on both, but the latter is for a different time / ask.
Broadly speaking, I agree. There is something so fundamentally good about a buttermilk biscuit or any other well made plain biscuit that further additions take away from it. Also the plain biscuit is so versatile! Want a savory snack -- eat with savory things. What a sweet snack -- eat with honey. Additions are limitations in this case.
That said, I think I would still consider a biscuit that had a reasonable amount of cheese, herbs, or other small what not (e.g. bacon) a biscuit. These seem very reasonable in the less structured drop biscuit (which, honestly, is biscuit in mostly just name -- delicious never the less).
I think the tipping point is when one passes from flaky and airy goodness to something more like a scone or short cake (which is what drop biscuits are closer to in my opinion). Too much of any inclusion makes that biscuit structure harder to achieve and you end up with a still delicious crumbly snack. Either it will be too dense or unlayered and just fall apart (I have had blue berry "biscuits" like this and they were amazing...but definitely closer to short cakes I have made. I should make blue berry short cakes...with compote...in the summer...)
This line of thought did make me wonder where the classic biscuit came from, and this was a very interesting read from KA flour. From this, it makes sense that early on inclusions in biscuits were either not worth the effort, increased the chance of spoilage, or was a waste of ingredients. Even after the development of leavening agents, I wonder if the pre-established notion of a biscuit was too solidified and versatile.
Another area I didn't have time to explore was what meal were biscuits longest associated with? My guess is savory with dinner. The rise of the sweet "biscuit" would be something to examine. Maybe whenever fresh fruit was more accessible.
The Red Lobster Cheddar Biscuits came in 1992 and probably falls into the category of drop biscuits -- so not really biscuits, but close.
This is long and rambling, but the result of a 20 min exploration during lunch....
(I am super curious to know what led to this question....)

my hot take is that the character trope of the Big Loud Bossy Woman (optional: In Charge Of Her Husband’s Business, because they often are) in fiction with a faintly historical theme is more butch coded than twinky knights are

So far, I’ve made sourdough crackers (which were amazing, didn’t last for more than an hour or so), currently have a sourdough dutch baby in the oven, and have a sourdough cinnamon bun dough in the fridge to bake this afternoon. I am having so much fun with the baking something everyday, and it’s getting me using the oven regularly again, which I have had a bit of a phobia of since the fire last year. Plus using the oven heats up the apartment in the morning which is nice and adds to the coziness of baking and taking care of the sourdough
