My Plate is Always Full: Recent Episodes
Meseidy & Rebecca
Every Wednesday on My Plate is Always Full, Meseidy and Rebecca discuss and debate all things food. Most discussions are friendly and some get a bit heated, sometimes there is a food fight. My Plate is Always full will have a little food history and science, mixed with a little bit of cooking technique, some food culture, recipes, and a sprinkle of inappropriate humor. Meseidy Rivera (The Noshery), and Rebecca Lindamood (Foodie with Family) are friends, former chefs, and food bloggers who have a lot to say about food.
In today's episode, Meseidy and Rebecca talk everything you have ever needed to know about hot dogs, and probably some things you never needed to know but will enjoy knowing anyway.
They have history and how hot dogs are made. They have cooking methods. They have hot dog controversies. And they have some serious opinions on how a hot dog should be cooked and how it should be topped.

In today's episode, Meseidy and Rebecca get judgey, but with love. It's true, they're about to tell you what you might be doing wrong in the kitchen, but they also share the right way to do it and some embarrassing confessions of things they have done wrong, too.
From reading recipes and prepping before cooking to the smartest (read: best) way to prepare and break down onions, bell peppers, carrots, potatoes, and more, the gals are here to make your kitchen life more efficient. They hold forth on non-stick pans, cast-iron skillets, how to clean nasty, cooked-on gunk from the worst messes, what the most common cooking mistake is, and how to store green leafies.

In today's episode, Meseidy and Rebecca talk about what constitutes a dumpling, discuss some (gasp!) dumpling controversies and their best-loved dumplings, and Meseidy is forced to question her entire life. Joking. But not really.

In today's episode, Meseidy and Rebecca are here with Part II of our We Got Culture show. They discuss cheese trivia (yes! Cheese trivia!). They go into how cheeses are classified (or not classified) and how different aged cheeses are made- whether they’re a softer cheese like brie or a hard aged cheese like cheddar or parmesan.

- Separate the mixture completely by stirring over heat.
- Tilt the pan and let rest for 5 minutes so the oily part comes to the top where it can be removed (but don't discard).
- Start with 2 tsp of warm water in a bowl and add 1 tbsp of the thick sauce at a time, whisking in until smooth at each addition.
- Start adding back in the oily part, beating it in like you were making the sauce from the start.
- If any parts have scrambled, put through a strainer.
