I’ve decided to start updating this blog more as my misadventures in cooking start up again.
Two posts to look forward to:
Keep an eye out for these!
I don’t have a card for this recipe, but this is one of my favorite cheap dishes for when I can’t afford anything outside of what’s already in my fridge and pantry.
The pickles sort of turned out successfully! I say “sort of” because they didn’t go bad, but I think my taste buds were not happy with the oversalting. I’m going to try again a few times and perfect the recipe. In the meantine, I’m working on a recipe for BBQ pulled pork sandwiches which should be amazing. I was able to salvage two or three not-too-salty pickle slices for the sandwiches I made this weekend, and it was a magical day. Look for that soon.
I’m trying out making fermentation pickles. The process is similar to the recipe for kimchi I posted a few posts back, but slightly simpler and easier. The only problem is that I don’t know if they turned out yet. So I promise there will be a recipe eventually for pickles, but not sure when that would be.
I decided recently to try making some pixel art recipe cards. This dish of fries is something I used to make a lot when needing comfort food, but I don’t make it quite as often as I used to. Here are the drafts of this recipe card so far:
Kimchi is easy to make, but the method is one that freaks me out quite a bit. Nothing says bad news like a recipe telling you to “leave it in a jar at room temperature for a few weeks to a month”.
Starting off with a simple recipe card, and a fairly simple recipe. I made this chili for the chili cookoff at my university last year. It got 2nd in the vegetarian category. Out of 2.
Welcome to Exciting News from the Paper Shredder! I originally envisioned this site as a random blog full of random facts with zingy one-liners and weird trivia. Months later, I now realize that I don’t have any more useless knowledge to share. Instead, I want to share two things I enjoy immensely: cooking and design.
In this blog, I’ll be posting printable recipe cards of some of my favorite dishes, each with a different design. I’ll even take requests, discuss recipes with commenters, change recipes as needed, and so on. Hope you enjoy it!
