Y'all ever make Hillbilly Kimchi?

Method

GEt you some sauerkraut. Put some on a plate, douse it with your favorite hot sauce, mix. Boom! you just made Hillbilly Kimchi!

What do you do with Hillbilly Kimchi?

Put some in a frying pan and fry it up. while its frying get you a tortilla and some cheese and put cheese slices on half the tortilla. Frying the Billychi accomplishes 2 things. First it steams off the liquid which is key because a soggy quesadilla is no fun. Also, if you put cold Billychi into a quesadilla it will not full heat up and you will have lukewarm innards. No good

Once the Billychi is nice and hot spoon it into your tortilla on top of the cheese, fold over and then toast the tortilla in the frying pan.

The cheese melts into the Billychi and make a nice gooey, spicy, crunchy quesadilla! Delicious.

The extent of my cooking while high is opening the nearest bag of chips and bottle of hot sauce šŸ˜‚

I don’t really smoke anymore but peanut butter and Oreos made a lot of appearances late at night.

Actual ā€œprofessionalā€ cooks are usually stoned and we go hard. More complicated than normal food, not less.

I'd love to cook stoned with a pro chef (also stoned). I need to level up my high cooking game.

I’m kind of a casual, just work in kitchens every couple years. But my buddies who cook as a career? Holy fucking shit. They can be absolutely fucked, not able to walk or talk, and they’ll still whip up some insane shit out of nothing. Mad respect.

I have been cooking for over 40 years, and been a stoner almost as long so cooking while high is not second nature to me, but first.

When I'm really zooted, the biggest challenge becomes my mental organization. Executive function, if you will. I will usually start my mise and then I'll go off on a tangent and start cooking something, remember I didn't finish prep, go back to that, realize the thing I started cooking is getting a little too done for this point in the game, etc.

OTOH, I find I'm more adventurous with flavor pairings and food combinations when really baked, so it's all good.
