my partner once ordered extra sauce for *everybody's pizza without asking anyone*.

tbf nobody was expressing a strong opinion on toppings, and i think it was a gambit to impress everyone with her ordering skills. she was just the only one who liked extra sauce. she is also my favorite person, though, so the others maybe (probably?) haven't moved on.

The next time I want to get fired from a job I might try repeatedly ordering pizza with extra, extra sauce for everyone.
― Yerac, Friday, 23 March 2018 18:02 (six years ago) link
what is wrong w sauce, sauce is good, the more the better. is it because it makes it too gloopy? i had a friend who would order pizzas "well done" because he felt, with some justification, that the middles of most pizzas are too gloopy

I’m on board with extra sauce and have been known to inflict it on others.

if you want pizza sauce just eat spoonfuls of sauce, I've never had a pizza and thought "I wish there were about twice as much pizza sauce on here"

For some weird reason I associate extra sauce with the 1980s. Like, not knowing any better.
― Yerac, Friday, 23 March 2018 18:08 (six years ago) link
Ugh, I am in Chile now and the mayo is out of control here.

pizzeria uno used to offer "extra oil" for 50c

chilean food is weird. i have a strong affection for it but i hesitate to describe it as good
― Louis Jägermeister (jim in vancouver), Friday, 23 March 2018 18:10 (six years ago) link
Roberta's has on every table their bottle of hot oil. It's super good.
― Yerac, Friday, 23 March 2018 18:11 (six years ago) link
The food in general in Chile is very average. They don't like spices.
It probably depends on how sweet and acidic the pizza sauce is tbh. Ideally, a pizzeria has some idea of the balance between the sweet/sour/dairy and has already chosen the correct proportions for you.

yeah i mean i guess merken and aji chileno appear here and there but yeah, in general quite bland. i like the seafood and the bread i guess

When we have people over, I make everything super basic and put all the spices, herbs on the side.

For every bechamel-in-lasagna person, I beg you to try this instead just once.
4T butter, a small onion or a couple of shallots minced fine, 3T flour, 2C milk, 2 egg yolks, 1C grated parmesan cheese.Soften onions in butter; blend in the flour, then the cheese; whisk in the milk and cook/stir until it's the thickness of heavy cream; temper the beaten yolks with some sauce and add it all back to the pot; cover and cook on very low for 10 minutes.

yeah my limited experience with it was very unimpressive, esp since, like, it's upside down california the food there should be insanely good
― gbx, Friday, 23 March 2018 18:38 (six years ago) link
I figure it's because the water is so salty/minerally it's destroyed everyone's tastebuds, that a lot of stuff is just starting to get imported, the milk/cheese situation is stupid and the traditional food is pretty bland.
― Yerac, Friday, 23 March 2018 18:46 (six years ago) link
They do put bechamel in their lasagna here too. It's bad.
this is a picture of locos mayo which is probably my favourite dish. this looks utterly revolting

genuinely the worst looking food i have ever seen my god

I've never had it when it looked that bad tbh, but almost all the images on google look just about as terrible as that one

Pastel de Choclo is one of the weirdest things I have ever eaten. Who would have thought a mashup between chicken stew and creme brulee would be so awful? (Said no-one ever.)

I was watching an Anthony Bourdain on Chile and he goes to Fuentes Alemana which is supposed to have the most amazing lomito. I ordered it with half mayo because otherwise they put a huge scoop on top. I should've gotten the full mayo because it was seriously very bland. I wonder how many times he has average food and is just too nice to say anything.
― Yerac, Friday, 23 March 2018 19:29 (six years ago) link
i love the fuente alemana - well did i suppose as i haven't eaten meat in 5 years - and would usually get the chacarero. i find that the meat you get in chile can be quite bland as well tbh, like bistek a lo pobre is a boring and bad bit of meat with a fried egg on it
― Louis Jägermeister (jim in vancouver), Friday, 23 March 2018 19:31 (six years ago) link
I had a conger eel a lo pobre the other day. It was ok. I was at Liguria the other day and got a pernil sandwich ( I only sometimes eat meat when I go out in Chile. It was so gristly and bland I took it home and recut the meat and added more stuff to it.

not a fan of chilean food. all the good shit they ripped from peruvian cuisine lol

I think Korean food is way overpriced for what it is. I think I only like kimchee. All the filipino food I have had has been disgusting.

ceviche, lomito, even a goddamn pisco sour is all better in peru

man i fuckin love korean food
Someone who was fairly "worldly", half asian/french was telling me about an awesome fried chicken place in Santiago. She took me and I totally trusted her, forgetting that ultimately she was chilean. It was basically bland chicken nuggets served with mayo.

the only cuisines I don’t much like are not controversial eg british
― droit au butt (Euler), Friday, 23 March 2018 21:03 (six years ago) link
The pisco sour is 10xs better in peru but I like any mix drink with egg whites. I kind of think the ceviche is the same in both, but we make our white fish ceviche a lot and never go for the mariscos mixtos.
