They really enshittified the internet so hard that it’s more convenient to have these bulky ass (expensive too if you don’t get second hand…) books that you have to flick through and find room to store and try not to spill shit on and stick little bookmarks in to save commonly used recipe, god damn.

For years I used a search engine, and used Pinterest a lot too to save recipes and categorise them. But the SEO slop, the AI slop, the ads…. It’s just become horrific half the time. I did try downloading a few eBooks and pdfs but the format is really not great for cookbooks.

If anyone has any recommendations for sites or apps that aren’t fucking terrible I would love that. Especially im-vegan ones.

    Kale Moochim

    Ingredients

    • 2 cups chopped kale
    • 1 tablespoon doenjang
    • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
    • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

    Directions

    1. Set up a large bowl of ice and water. In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Drop the kale into the boiling water for 2 minutes. Transfer the kale to the ice bath to stop the cooking.

    2. Drain the kale, wrap it in a large kitchen towel, and squeeze out the excess liquid (this is the hardest and most annoying part of the recipe, but it’s necessary).

    3. Place the kale in a bowl, add the doenjang, black pepper, sesame oil, and sesame seeds and mix everything together, preferably by hand
