You can also add chili flakes, green onions, and thinly sliced meats such as bacon, spam, or chicken. You can also cheaply garnish with nori and sesame seeds. Or just top that shit with a slice of American Cheese. That’s fine too.
Peanut butter is going too far but american fucking cheese is fine? I don’t even wanna know what they put in that shit to make you call want to eat it so much.
Peanut butter is used in noodles and asian cooking plenty and it’s great.
Interestingly enough, I spent a summer interning in France. I got homesick and was craving peanut butter, looked for it at the store, learned the word - they had no idea what I was talking about. Showed them it written down and a picture and everything
My host family told me you could find it in the international isle, but looked at me weird… They said they only ate it as a high calorie snack when they went skiing
My point is, even though I’m constantly disappointed by even “fancy” wine and cheese a decade later, a spoon full of peanut butter is a fantastic way to shut down hunger pangs for a few hours.
Honestly, it’s better without bread or toast - that’s just empty carbs anyways. I started getting coconut flakes to sprinkle on top… It’s an easy way to class it up without adding calories or effort… It’s basically a no-bake protein cookie at that point
Again, peanut butter is used plenty in noodle soups and it works great. Each to their own though. Just saying. Literally learned to use peanut butter with noodles from Asian people. Abomination is literally exaggering it.
Cook with the white part, finish with the green. Quantity is subjective, put as much as looks appealing. I put probably 2-3 tbsp.
More, thinner cuts = stronger taste. If you just want that bright pop of green in a dish, use longer cuts like 1+" long. Check out how they do it with stirfries.
Also. NEVER EVER EVER, throw away the bulb at the end. Put it in dirt, and you’ll grow massive bunches of green onion. After like 10-20 bulbs, I just get year round massive stalks of green onion - it’s fantastic and comes back every year.
Can you tell me more about growing onions from the bulbs? I usually cut mine fairly close to the root growth at the bottom, maybe leaving 1 cm of onion white, and throw it in the freezer with other veggie scraps to later boil and clarify for broth, but I am CONSTANTLY buying green onions for soups, dumplings, stirfries, grilling, what-have-you, so I’m very interested in this idea. I live in apartment with a bay window which is ripe for a planter, so this sounds potentially very useful.
It’d be perfect in a planter. You can shove a bunch in there about an 1" or 2" apart. They will get MASSIVE. Like 3x bigger in diameter (not leek big, but still). I probably have about 10-20 bulbs going, and just keep cutting until I have enough for whatever dish I need. I never run out… It takes a short bit for them to get established, but it was one of the best things I’ve done in awhile. I never have to buy them any more…been going that way for almost 3 years now.
If you want to kick it up another notch, add a few drops of sesame oil to it, too.
To one up this one-up, use chili oil instead.

You have strayed from God’s light.

Well, we’re talking about ramen or other similar soup packets. Both are abominations for that IMO.
American cheese has it’s place when you need it to melt into things. A base for other cheeses to be added but not the sole flavor.
Peanut butter? I’ll just eat that shit out the jar. Won’t be without a jar in my house.

For sure,Peanut butter is just a cheap way to do satay noodles/chicken/etc. (rather than proper satay sauce)
who god
Helllll yes. Is surprisingly delicious.
I’ve yet to master proper green onion quantity, any tips?
Also do you use a mix of the harder white part and the green?

Wow wow wow, this really does sound great! How much of the bulb are you saving from the onion to replant?
I probably left 1-2" or so along the bottom. You could likely get away with shorter than that honestly.
