[α.s0] Food crimes

[chalcedony_starlings]

So we had some of these frozen seaweed roll things from the Korean market, I forget what brand. Breaded things with seaweed and then I think rice and some vegetables on the inside. They're… interesting, and maybe potentially craving-forming? Anyway, I decided to fry the rest of them to use them up, but I was at a loss on what to use for a sauce.

Then it occurred to me that we had these cans of Progresso “Creamy Mushroom” which we'd gotten as part of this impulse bulk order (^βCan we never do anything that would result in putting those three words in that order again, please? Thank you.) *cough* yes, okay, I realize. Anyway it is not in any way Real Cream of Mushroom, as conveniently evidenced by, mostly, “cream” being in the “less than 2% of” section of the ingredients list while “soybean oil” floats up to occupy slot ^#3 after water and mushrooms.

So, it's kind of terrible as a soup, but we also have some horseradish sauce which is (a) weirdly sweet, presumably because AMERICA, and (b) far too strong to use by itself. So I mixed that into the “Creamy Mushroom” as a base, and put some garlic and ground red pepper in it, and dipped the fried breaded seaweed roll things into that.

I'm sorry, okay?

Just be glad I didn't take any photos this time, okay?
