Three Lunch Recipes: Carla’s Cottage Cheese Extravaganza!

Рет қаралды 96,766

Күн бұрын

I am so smitten with cottage cheese and the multitude of curds it contains that one recipe wasn’t enough. Two was too neat. Three-three stretched my imagination and led to a trio of recipes that make it possible to eat a different cottage cheese recipe morning, noon, and night. I know, it’s almost too much.
0:35 - Turkish Style Egg
5:54 - Poached Egg Time
8:37 - Checkin' The Egg
11:15 - Savory Salad with Cucumbers and Tomatoes
17:39 - Salad Sandwich

LOVE cottage cheese with chopped tomato, cukes, shredded onion and dehydrated onion flake, minced celery and pepper. Mix and let sit to meld for 30 minutes or so. It's an excellent hot summer night meal.

Pro tip for those who blend cottage cheese: immersion blender. Less waste, no fighting to scrape it out of a larger blender surface, and I swear it's somehow the creamiest this way

A nice 1% whipped style with a little honey and black pepper swirled in is a beautiful thing. Anyone else unable to take their eyes off the Mondo-cool Gene Wilder / Gilda Radner t-shirt or the bandaged pinkie finger?

I think I'm obsessed at this point. Your videos are so wonderful! The way you cook and talk about food for some reason makes me feel validated in so many of my own cooking choices and discoveries. You have inspired me to explore the way I feed myself and my family in so many ways. Your advice suggesting that we cook for ourselves the way we want to be cooked for by others is straight up therapy after a hard work week.

Your spinit technique helped me to innovate in my kitchen. I didn't have poblanos to char for a green enchilada sauce so I broiled a yellow bell pepper with two thai green chilis instead. Perfect fruity-with-a-kick flavor that poblanos would have given. People couldn't tell the difference. This is unrelated to cottage cheese but I just did it a few days ago and I wanted to let you know. I'll try cottage cheesin this summer! I'm living with a vegetarian and thinking about vegetarian protein options.

I don't like cottage cheese, but I'm perfectly willing to admit that it's probably just because I didn't like it as a kid and so I've avoided it as an adult... which is ridiculous, because there are so many things I love as an adult that I shunned as a kid. I'm going to try the Turkish egg one, at the very least. And if I find that I've been missing out on something wonderful, I will absolutely proceed to the salad, which is intriguing to me, even as non-cottage cheese eater. Maybe even the salad sandwich. That one doesn't really feel like me, and that has nothing to do with the cottage cheese... but I've loved other things Carla makes, so why not?
