That's easy, you just hollow out a portion like you normally would if you were about to fuck it.
:lulz:
DELICIOUS EGGPLANT! I LOVES IT!
It was all right. I don't really know how to cook eggplant, but the stuffing was delicious!
I love eggplant, you'll have to send me the stuffing recipe, I saw some beautiful little indian eggplant at the market the other day, I thought at the time they were cool because you could serve them indivdually like stuffed peppers.

Note to self, eat NOTHING prepared (or even left unattended for any amount of time) at EoC's place...

i used this recipe, only forgot about the rice and didn't use pine nuts, and threw some dates in there, and used chicken instead of beef.

THANK YOU!!

edited to ask....
QuoteCore the eggplants with a sharp knife or, better yet, with an eggplant corer (found in Middle Eastern stores), making sure not to break the skins.
WTF? I mean if one took that literally...... :lulz:
I goddamn love stuffed eggplant.
FUCKING LOVE IT.

Tripe. Is it good?
I've got the stuff for it, and I'll be making it in a few hours, and I know what it is, and its giving me the heebie jeebies, but I want to know if I like it, and I might as well ask if you spags like it for comparison's sake.
Tripe is just the stomach lining from a cow. It's not the name of a specific dish.
Bible tripe (the kind you find at good pho places) is edible. Honeycomb tripe (the kind the Puerto Ricans use to make menudo) is absolutely disgusting, and this is coming from a person who gleefuly eats things like fish eyes and goat knuckles.
It's a shame too, since menudo is pretty damn good except for the part where it's full of tripe.

:( All the store had was honeycomb tripe.
Also, http://www.cookstr.com/recipes/tripe-madrid-style this is what I'm making.
I've only had a tripe soup at a Polish joint. Don't know the difference between tripes, but it definitely had a honeycomb look to it. It's not terrible, but it's definitely a bit of an endeavor to eat.

This recipe is confusing.
First of all, if you're gonna make a soup/stew with chorizo, prosciutto, and pigs' feet, why bother adding tripe?
Second of all, that seems like it would be wicked salty. Maybe not, though, hard to make that judgment without actually trying it.
Third of all, there's a part of the recipe where they tell you to return the tripe to the pan, but no preceeding instructions to remove the tripe from the pan.

Yeah, I just assumed they meant "Put this all in the pan with the tripe" instead of "now put the tripe that you took ut back in the pan."
I do not know why you would bother to add tripe, that's just what it called for. I personally thought it a bit much, myself. I couldn't find pig's feet, nor procuitto ham, either, so I'm making due with salt pork and turkey ham, is that okay?
I feel like I should be ducking in case ECH decides to punch me through the internet...
WHAT THE SHITFUCKING COCKWART IS "TURKEY HAM"?
:madbanana:
Also, salt pork will not be a good sub for pigs' feet. the recipe doesn't call for smoked hocks so I assume they mean uncured and unsmoked pigs' feet in which case the salt pork will almost certainly make this overly salty. I'd just use the salt pork and chorizo and lose the "turkey ham" (whatever THAT is) entirely.
Excellent.

I do not like the tripe I have had in Pho (even though I order it every single fucking time and then eat it anyway).
Edible; yes. But I swear to god every few bites, it leaves the faintest back-of-the-throat aura of something horrible. The texture is OK, similar to black fungus, but the taste. Not so much.
I have been wanting to make menudo but I am a little afraid of the stink of cooking tripe in my house. I might go ahead and try it anyway.

It is a salted and smoked ham-like substitute made from turkey leg and thigh meat, useful in some (but not all) dishes that call for ham, if you happen to have a best friend who is Jewish.

Yeah, I'm not a huge fan either. If I've got a hankering for something weird in my pho I usually go with soft tendon.

I love tendon so much! I have some steamed tendon in my fridge for slicing into soup.
