Default Food find and shortages

Whole Foods now has Just Mayo in stock for shipping. At least I hope they
do. It's the kind that must be refrigerated. They did have brown rice syrup
but when I tried to place the order, it said it was out of stock. The order
will arrive tomorrow, so I'll see what I will get.

What I couldn't find was normal Ricotta cheese. The only stuff I found was
at PCC and I physically had to go there. None was visible so I had to ask.
The guy dug way to the back of the case. There were a few containers of
organic stuff. Small, overpriced or really small and super overpriced. I
opted for two of the small, overpriced. I don't care for cottage cheese in
lasagna.

I am annoyed with Safeway. I had placed an order for delivery. They had the
Best Foods vegan mayo on sale. They have recently changed the recipe and
online reviews are horrible but I actually like it as it doesn't separate
out. The old recipe did. Anyway... I got no mayo, no ricotta, and no
tamales. They don't normally sell the Texas Tamales but they were listed for
sale and for about$4 less per pkg. than Central Market. I was able to get
the tamales and the overpriced Ricotta there. I totally forgot to look for
the mayo, hence the Whole Foods order, but if they did have it, it would
likely be very overpriced.

Maybe a lot of people here make lasagna for Christmas. I dunno. Safeway and
Albertsons almost always seem to be out of it no matter what time of year.

Since I'll be home cat sitting, my wife left yesterday to visit her
two sons and three grands, I will just need to cook for me and feed
the cats, and give Miche his two insulin injections each day (he's
doing much better), my wife will return on the 28th. I'll cook the
half ham for me, my wife doesn't eat ham anyway. I've no plan to make
anything to go with the ham... probably I'll have ham sandwiches with
Guldens spicy brown. I need to go into town this morning for my 11 AM
haircut appointment, so I'll stop at Tops and find semolina bread and
onion rolls at their bakery.

Julie is much too fussy an eater for someone who hardly cooks... and
has to have her food delivered because she's too lazy to go to the
store.

I'm not lazy. We're supposed to stay home and not go to the store.

Some things - mostly meat and beef in particular - are pricey , but
the only thing we've seen here that's not fully stocked is TP . Go
figure , but since we've got enough for a couple of months I'm not going
to worry about it . We don't get stocked up we stay stocked up . Livin'
out here in the wilderness (yeah yeah) encourages that .

They're rationing paper goods here so they are in stock.

Most TP comes in rolls too big to fit my bathroom. I buy this because it fits.

I have not seen that here. I got a different kind of Scott. Thankfully just
one pkg. as the rolls are far too large to fit in my TP storage container.
They will fit on the spindle but they will barely turn until some has been
used.

I like the 24 packs of single roll tp (Angel Soft). Nice and 'fluffy'
but hard to find now. Now it's all double rolls. Same tp but compressed
more to fit. Not as good.

Now I see some companies selling "triple rolls." That's probably what
is too thick to turn for awhile on a holder.

This is just companies trying to save money and telling us it's "new and
improved."

New? yes. Improved? not really.

Have you ever made your own ricotta? I made some a couple of weeks
ago, and my God! It was delicious! Totally creamy, unlike commercial
ricotta, which can be grainy.

All you need is milk, lemon juice or vinegar (I used fresh lemon
juice), and a pinch of salt.

This is the recipe I used:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/food/...icotta-recipe/

It will start out looking like it isnt' going to firm up, but put it
in the fridge for a couple of hours and it's good.

Thank you, Doris. A good recipe to save. There's always a few brands
of ricitta in the markets here but one day I will use your recipe to
make my own. There's always whole milk and lots of fresh lemons here,
and I can always buy cream.
I hope you had a Merry Christmas and have a
very Happy and Healthy New Year.

I have not but that looks very expensive to make. I never have cream or milk
here, and rarely have lemons. I do have vinegar.

As per the recipe, the cream is not necessary. In Canada, one liter of
milk is about $2.00. A lemon is about $0.50. This makes about 250
grams of ricotta. The price of ricotta cheese at WalMart is $4.97 for
475 grams.

So it's about the same to make it as it is to buy it.

I have no clue what cream costs here. I bought some in NY to make ice cream.
The only milk I ever have is the powdered kind. It's non-fat. Lemons are
expensive here. They were cheap in NY. I don't know grams. Just far easier
for me to buy it because I'd have to order the ingredients to make it.

Dry milk won't work to make cheese.

BTW, if we used much ricotta, this would be cheaper than prepared types
here. Unfrtunately the link wants money to see it. Nope.

Milk, lemon juice, salt, and heavy cream are "very expensive?"

You are a ****ing idiot. Quit posting here and go grow a braincell.

I had a pizza yesterday that was totally awesome. For 11 bucks, you get a pizza with whatever you want on it. Well, except for anchovies. There's ricotta somewhere in there...

Indeed. That was about a third of the toppings available. I'd like to see what everything on it looks like. I had mine with a pesto on the bottom. My son had a more restrained pizza. Perhaps this is the future of pizza.

rfc is hung up on words. They think that words possess the ability to shape the experience. This pizza is such a different experience that it should be called "azzip." The reality is that this is not pizza - it's a completely different experience.

I see no reason why an American pizza has to conform to Italian, or Euro, specs. This is the new world, not the old one. Americans can do anything they want. Here's my blueberry and marshmallow azzip.
