!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! y'all!!!! exciting old cookbook news!!!!!!!

the university of san antonio has digitized their collection of early mexican and mexican-american cookbooks and put them up for people to freely access!!! going back to handwritten recipe books from 1789!!!!!

smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/ is an article about it, digital.utsa.edu/digital/colle is a direct link to the oldest manuscript, same as pictured below!

there's a lot of people on here who are Very Good and even if we're not close friends or anything I appreciate seeing you all the same <3

Now that I listen to this one again, it sounds a lot better if I transpose the triangle channel down an octave:

This one's Palace of Salmon from Ys II: Ancient Ys Vanished: The Final Chapter. The name is *supposed* to be Palace of Solomon but it got mistranslated in a particularly humorous way.

This game did have a Famicom release, but the version of this track from that release is a bit lacking in our opinion. Of course, our version uses the VRC6, which Falcom obviously wouldn't have been able to use; it's a Konami-exclusive chip

Here's one most of you probably recognise; this is J-E-N-O-V-A from Final Fantasy VII. This is also one of the ones we're quite proud of!

This one uses the VRC6 expansion chip. you might know it as the reason Castlevania III's soundtrack sounded so different in Japan (the north american NES doesn't support the sound expansion chips for whatever reason, so the soundtrack was redone)

Show thread

oh look it's that track that was a meme in like 2012 (Groose's theme from Skyward Sword)

This one actually uses no expansion chips and could be played on an unmodded north american NES

okay who voted ketchup and was that a serious answer or a joke

it's fine if it was a serious answer, i just included that as a joke and wasn't expecting anyone to actually pick it

honestly i feel like alfredo sauce plus soy sauce might actually be possible to make work, but you'd need to know what you're doing and get the mixture just right

Show thread

honestly personally we like to have a mixture of at least two of the (serious) option. pesto goes well with either red sauce or white sauce, and red and white mix together well too. and then you can just mix all three of them if you want that too!

Show thread

the idea of just quadrupling the amount of butter in anything sounds awful, really, but apparently it worked this time

Show thread

fun fact: alfredo sauce was invented when someone named alfredo decided to quadruple the amount of butter in a dish called fettuccini al burro (italian for "fettuccini with butter")

preferred pasta sauce:

Who made those unique chairs? No one knows. Maybe they made themselves. The artistry is not the best, but it has a certain charm to it.
