    Seems like so many people these days love street corn. I mean they love it.. elote. Ho ho ho, just a little joke.

     

    Well anyway, I ran across this recipe at my favorite recipe site. That site is so great, because as its title suggests, the recipes generally don't send you all over town to the expensive groceries looking for fresh lingonberries or pearl onions or something. It's stuff you can get from a basic grocery store. I've only made a few things off of it that weren't great, and it has taught me a lot about cooking. I've seriously tried probably 50 recipes off there.

     

    My aunt and uncle were throwing sort of a couples shower for my big brother and his now fiancee and I always like to bring a dish, so I whipped up those 'chos.

     

    Here's a blurry pic of them:

    They were delicious!! When this recipe first dropped, the garlic was listed in the ingredients but not any of the steps, so I dropped a quick comment on there and got that all sorted out. I didn't make many modifications but I couldn't quickly find cotija cheese at the store I stopped at, so just subbed feta like she said, and it was still great. No one even noticed! I did manage to find legit crema though. Instead of chipotle powder I used some adobo sauce from the classic can, mixed with the crema.

     

    The best thing I learned from this recipe is that 'leaving the corn kernels frozen while carmellizing them' tip. Just a flawless, forgiving technique. It worked out so well.

     

    That platter they're on is new cause I didn't actually have a platter, though there have been a huge amount of times I could have used one. My entertainment game is now at a new level.

     

    I also made a baked brie but that's recipe is an old classic, I didn't snap a pic. It was good, as usual. Didn't get that new recipe attempt and payoff thrill.

     

    My big bro has a set of male friends he's really close with, and they were all cordoned off, and their WAGs were sitting in a segregated way at the party around a patio table. I greeted everyone, and uncovered my nachos and they all cooed and talked about how good they looked. It was a really great feeling! Everyone gobbled them too and told me how good they were. I'm not trying to brag, more just journaling my experience making some food to share with a pretty large amount of people. My mom and dad were loving them and my mom wants me to make them again for her soon. No prob, moms, they were pretty easy to whip up.

     

    The next time you're invited to a party, try making something rather than pick up a bag of chips if that's what you do! It can be very rewarding.

    PS I know this isn't important or funny or in any way relevant to the pizza yall are talking about. but I want to know which one is my new best dipping buddy.

     

    I'm going to have to assume it's one of the enginiers

    I listened to the Nick Wiger HH epi and when Sean broached the q of what's better, Doritos or Tostitos, Nick demurred because he didn't want to make this "a multi-episode podcast"... are we seeing the inception of The Dough Boys (feral audio)? When will at least Sean guest on to talk about... uh, KFC idk.

    I think an antagonistic energy works really well in the guest segment, and Scharpling can really deliver that. I can't remember what the pre-guest... oh, it was Sean struggling to switch politics w/ hollywood - we're all rooting for you Sean!

    Also lol that the earwolf studios are now perpetually in twilight now. Uh, candlelight is for romantic dinners guys, you need high-watt flourescent for comedy!

     

     

    More like Tom DULLling.

     

    Sorry guys.

     

    I actually think Tom Scharpling is great. Can't wait to listen to this fresh ep when it pops up in my podcast app feed.

     

    It's such a shame that there was no PCG this week, this would have been a sure shoe-in.
