      @sweaterfish6311 2 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      People who don't want to waste perfectly good food ought to know that the midvein of kale is fine and quite tasty. It just needs to be separated and cooked a bit longer. Cut it up exactly like Kenji cut the asparagus and give it the same amount of extra time. It contributes its own flavor and texture that's different from the leafy part, so you're basically getting two veggies for one.

    • @WATalisman
      @WATalisman 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@michaelbaumann8590 In this context, "nub" is probably meaning "a lump or small piece", but you have to combine both "cheese" and "nubs" into a phrase to really get the fully meaning here.
      Cheese nubs are basically just leftover bits and pieces cheese.

    • @waori
      @waori 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      @@michaelbaumann8590 In the simplest terms, a nub is just a small chunk of something. Usually when you use the word nub, it's to imply that this small chunk is the last piece of a larger object that has been reduced down over time. For example when you're grating a carrot, at the end, you'll be left holding the nub of the carrot (with the rest grated away). However, if you just chopped a carrot into lots of small pieces, those wouldn't really be called nubs. "Nub" typically implies that the object has been reduced down to this final small piece, and the rest of the object is gone. Like in Kenji's use, where the blocks of cheese have been sliced away over time and eaten, leaving just these last little nubs. This is probably why it gets confusing to translate, because of this implied process of reduction that gets left out of the definition. This is how it links to more abstract things. For example if two people are arguing, they could argue for a long time until they finally get down to the nub of the disagreement. This would be the final/central very specific detail that is at the root of their argument.

    I do enjoy your videos and I learn new things from you. I do hear what you're saying, and the stems from kale can be tough and woody, and taste more strong than the leaves. When I know where the kale comes from and if it's very fresh, I've taken the kale stems out of the leaves, chop them rather small, saute' the stems with the onion, and then later add the torn leaves to the frying pan to wilt them. I'll add a tiny bit of liquid if I feel it's necessary to help the stems and the torn leaves become more tender and then evaporate any liquid. The stems when they are very fresh are very delicious! We've been getting wonderful mixed varieties of kale from our CSA, and the stems are very tender rather than if it's been sitting around for a while. The stems are also tasty as a quick pickle with vinegar, water, salt, and optionals with garlic, or mustard seed, spicy peppers, whatever suits you.

    This is interesting, I've been doing frittatas in the last week or so. It being 90 here and not wanting to run the oven, I found that it works fine to put the mixture in on higher heat, then immediately set it to medium low, cover, and let it cook through. It gets good browning on the bottom and none on the top. I also don't stir it after adding it back to the pan which I think helps a lot with it not sticking, the whole thing just slides out.

      Also I'm living in Cyprus currently so I've been putting diced halloumi in as the last ingredient to sautee, once everything else is ready, then just browning the cheese slightly. Because it's a non-melting cheese you get nice discrete chunks of cheese that go with the discrete pieces of vegetables, rather than a general cheesiness of the whole dish.

    Very nice. I like to cut up 1 corn tortilla per egg and saute the pieces with whatever veggies. Also, I use the stovetop method with a cast iron pan, cooking on low heat until the eggs look completely set, then flip the whole thing. That way, the pretty side is on top -- don't see why you would want to put the pretty side on the bottom when you use the broiler :-)

    As an Italian American who grew up on the stuff, I'd have done a couple things slightly differently, but for sure I'd eat that frittata in a new york minute. They are indeed a good way to use up everything in your vegetable drawer.

    Nice. Weird question/request. I would love to see a video of how you (pro chefs) actually go shopping at grocery stores for ingredients for your house. What is your process of picking meats/veggies/fruits/other items? Thank you.

    Cook it partially lidded on low on the stovetop til mostly set, then finish in the broiler. That would have released the frittata from the pan more cleanly.

    Hey Kenji, Long time follower, can't wait for your second book! You're really giving us the Alton Brown/Harold McGee treatment by informing us of exactly what's happening and why while cooking.
    I've got a question (to anyone, I guess) What is your setup for filming (headgear/streaming)? I've been wanting to have a similar setup for when I speak with friends later at night, when I do prep cooking for myself.

    I pour the mixture into the skillet (cast iron) and don’t stir or otherwise disturb it at all. Turn the fire down a little and wait and watch for tiny puffs of steam to start coming out of random spots; also keep smelling it to try to catch it before the aroma changes from cooking/browning to starting to burn. Once you put it under the broiler, watch it like a hawk; the top will brown very quickly.
