These are the mad political rantings of one Matthew McNeil, Liberal/Democratic radio host in Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN. The postings are mine, the thoughts are mine. Mostly about politics, but I will occasionally get into raising kids, cooking, gardening, the arts and my favorite sports. Bon Appetite!

The Friday Link for 4/24/26
Hi all! I have not done a cooking-heavy edition of the Link lately, so let me start with one of my favorite YouTubers, Max Miller.
I love history, and I also love cooking, so my love for historic cooking (like Max's channel, Tasting History) shouldn't be a surprise. Seeing how people ate in the past, whether in ancient times, 500 years ago, or even in the 1950s and 60s, is fascinating to me. Max Miller is the gold standard at trying to make these recipes the best he can. To give you a taste of one of his more traditional episodes, here is his latest on Welsh Rabbit! (sidenote- there is no rabbit in Welsh Rabbit. It's actually vegetarian)
Historical cooking is a real mixed bag, and while the Welsh Rabbit was delicious, some of his other recipes were not so tasty. I am actually shocked it doesn't happen more often with his results, especially when you look back at the real old recipes. Food was really odd back then.
In this next video, Max lists off the worst-tasting recipes he has tackled, and when I saw this video pop up, I immediately knew what had to be #1, and I was right. I'll leave it a surprise for you, but the keyword is 'chewy!'
Last one tonight is the return of our favourite Canadian amateur chef, Jamie, the ANTI-CHEF!
He goes back to his roots and tackles a Julia Child recipe for a giant stuffed beef roll, and the final product looks so freaking amazing! Seriously, I think I could eat at least half of the thing.
That's it for this week! Have a great weekend, everyone!
Make sure you stay up to date on all of your vaccinations!
