Stranger Eats

Omegle has not been the gold mine it was over the summer. Apparently once school starts, people have better things to do. Weird. Anyway, we’ve decided to branch out a bit in our search for recipes. This results in fewer hilarious conversations, but the ratio of usable recipes to time wasted is much higher.

Today we made cheese. Now, there are two ways to do this. One involves sitting in one place for too long and never showering, and the other involves milk. Only one of these produces something you’d want to actually eat.

The Kitchn is one of our new favorite sites, and we tried out their recipe for queso fresco. Turns out it’s every bit as easy as they say, and the cheese tastes exactly like what you can buy in any number of Mission markets.

Schuyler just HAD to have cereal this morning, so he had to go get another quart of milk.

When it looks like something you'd never, ever eat, you're almost done

So gross.

That is cheese.

Apparently this was the best angle Schuyler could get for this shot.

If you've ever wondered how much food is in two quarts of milk, it's this much food.

This week we tested the curry recipe. As you may remember, the recipe didn’t state any sort of quantity for any of its ingredients. To some this may render a recipe unworkable, but we here at Stranger Eats have two advantages: We don’t know any better, and our budget dictates that we have to eat it no matter what.

In keeping with the spirit of the recipe as it was given us, I didn’t measure anything. As far as quantities go, all I know is we used one onion, one tomato, four chicken breasts, and one 12 ounce can of tomato paste. The spices were just sort of thrown in willy-nilly. It turned out all right, but this one will need revisiting.
