Spaghetti Sauce

[Tarlam!]

I don't think spaghetti is right for carbonara. Just my opinion. I mean, there's no law against it.

There fucking well should be though!

Yer a buncha' shit-talkin' wankers.

Brown:

1 pound ground bison
1 pound ground italian sausage

saute garlic, onion and thinly sliced mushrooms (EV olive oil, of course)

puree seeded fresh tomatoes

add tomatoes to garlic mix

one bay leaf

slowly simmer, like foreplay and making love, the longer, the better

add fresh basil, oregano, thyme

sugar, salt and balsamic vinegar to taste

about 30 minutes before serving, add finely chopped celery and bell pepper

serve and enjoy

[Tarlam!]

oh god. fresh basil? Might as well plaster it with friggin' spinach.

EV to sauté? You just killed a virgin for no decent reason.

lol!

lol!

Seriously mate. Basil leaves are really only any use when they are thrown in right at the end of anything. They're not up to a good simmer. they just die.

people keep saying to get the seeds out of the tomatoes, but nobody tells me how. How? Should you ever puree tomatoes with the skin still on 'em?

I would tell you, but I bore you too much. So, fuck yourself and your tomatoes, please.

That will work, but it's a pretty inefficient way to get the seeds out. And really, it's just a seed replacement, if you think about it.

Still, you're right, you do bore me.

Thank you so much for acknowledging I even exist. I feel so unworthy. Yet, i know how to peel and seed a fucking piece of fruit.

congratulations.

Lets say you bought whole peeled tomatoes in a can. You open the can, pull out the tomatoes one by one and tear them open and wipe all the seeds out with you fingers into the sink. Goes faster than you might think. Or buy crushed tomatoes, those are usually deseeded for you. If you're using fresh tomatoes, you slice an X into the bottom of each one and blanch them. The skins come right off and then they are the same as the ones in the can.

[Tarlam!]

congratulations.

Oh my. I really did expect better.

I feel sorry for you, so I'll tell you.

Boil a pretty big thingy with water, you won't need salt.

Eye the tomatoe and carefully (I said CAREFULLY!!!!) put a scar into the skin in a quarter. DO NOT QUARTER THE FUCKING FRUIT - IDIOT!!!!

Fill your sink with really cold wated. ice cubes are a plus.

Drop the tomatoes into the boiling water. count to 10. Oh shit, can you count to 10?

Take them out of the boiling water without the need to dial 911 and throw them into the cold water.

Now, they will blister and you can peel them really easily with a paring knife.

Now, it get personal. There are two major preferences that I know of.

1. Cut the tomoato in 6 and fillet out the seeds and meat and use it for soup. It is the traditional way to retrieve tomatoe for concasse, a wonderful product, but very wasteful.

2. Quarter the tomatoes, wash out the seeds under running water. i hate the loss of water with that, ut, you do have more flesh.
