Plant Milk for Cow Milk
I've recently been making the switch to plant based milks recently, mainly because it just agrees with my stomach better. I will still buy cow milk for use in cooking, but because I use so little, it goes bad beforw I've used most of it.
I'm wondering if I can swap it for the plant milk so I don't have to waste it or go through the hassle of trying to plan around buying it for one recipe. Also when can I NOT swap plant for cow milk?

My birthday is Friday and I'm looking for a unique dessert to make in place of my cake. Looking for something exotic if possible, I am from southern US.
Title says it all. My mother and myself typically bake my cake together, and I am looking for something different to make this year.

Looking for banana pudding recipes
I can't seem to find a good recipe online for banana pudding. I'm primarily looking for a recipe using bananas to make the actual pudding, not slicing up bananas and adding it as a layer in the pudding. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Any suggestions for a big bag of mint leaves? Didn't look closely enough when I asked for Thai Basil down in Chinatown yesterday!
I went to make a big wok full of eggplant with basil and it wasn't so good. Minty. Not good.

Deconstructed Chilaquiles
I've been messing with this recipe for a little while, and I wanted to see what changes or additions might be made. It's fairly simple and makes for a fun breakfast. The base recipe uses Gordon Ramsay's French-Style scrambled eggs, with my own twists. I grew up in San Diego and the Inland Empire, so Mexican food has a special place in my clogged heart
Ingredients - 3 eggs - 1 Tbsp butter - 2 Tbsp cooked Chorizo (pork or beef) - 1 Tbsp Mexican Crema - Cotija cheese - Red or Green enchilada sauce - Cilantro - Corn or Flour Tortilla Chips (FRESH is better if you know how to make them, but don't get some name brand if you buy them, get the bags made fresh from your local Mexican restaurant or grocery, get a hearty chip, no super thin ones) - (optional) refried beans - (optional) small can of diced green chiles
Directions
First saute the Chorizo until fully cooked and crumbly. Remove from pan to paper towel lined plate to remove excess grease. Set aside
Prepare the scrambled eggs as shown here. The only substitution would be using the Mexican Crema instead of Créme Fraiche to halt/shock the eggs from overcooking. Fold in the cooked Chorizo and season to taste. Fold in green chiles at this point as well for added heat. Move to serving bowl and top with cotija and cilantro
Warm the refried beans and sauce in separate small serving bowls.
Serve almost like a Chip-Dip Bar. Dipping your chip first in the Red or Green sauce, then beans, and finally scooping up some of the scrambled eggs
Let me know what you think!

Classic Italian Chicken Cutlets
The Hamptons Home Cook (Anthony Ashmore)
Step One
We Ingredients
- Four Eggs
- Two Tablespoons of Half and Half
- One Teaspoon of Salt
- One Teaspoon of Black Pepper
Dry Ingredients
- One Package of thin Chicken Cutlets (Not Tenders)
- Four Cloves of Grated Garlic
- The Zest of one Lemon
- A Quarter of a cup of Freshly Grated Parmigiano Reggiano Cheese
- Two Tablespoons of Fresh chopped Basil
- Two Tablespoons of Fresh chopped Parsley
- Three-Fourths of a Cup of Italian Breadcrumbs
- One Tablespoon of Salt
- One Tablespoon of Black Pepper
- One heaping Teaspoon of Adobo Seasoning (The “Surprise Ingredient).
Tip: I use Adobo in almost every recipe. Adobo itself has NO flavor. However, it genuinely enhances the natural flavor of whatever you add it to.
Grate your garlic, cheese and lemon — then finely chop your basil and parsley.
Add them into the breadcrumb mixture.
Step Two
Remove Chicken Cutlets from package and place on a clean plate.
Whisk your Eggs with your half and half — and salt and pepper.
Dip Chicken Breasts in the egg mixture — and then into the bread crumb mixture.
Ensure that you coat each cutlet thoroughly.
Once breaded, place on a new clean plate.
Step Three
- A Quarter of a cup (or Less) of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- A Pad and a Half of Butter
In a Cast Iron Skillet or Frying Pan, add your oil and butter.
Place on a Medium-High heat until oil begins to lightly bubble.
Place Chicken Cutlets into Pan, for 3–5 Minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
Serve on a clean plate over a bed of Arugula.
Suggested Dressing: Lemon, Olive Oil, Drop of Balsamic Vinegar, Salt, Pepper, Fresh Basil.

With many trying new recipes during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic - what your favorite recipe you have made that you suggest someone try making during quarantine?
I think a lot of us are trying new recipes during the social distancing/stay at home orders and this could be a great place for people to find a new recipe to try. I tried this beef bulgogi recipe (https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/100606/beef-bulgogi/) and used the leftovers to make beef fried rice and it was incredible.

Has anyone tried making pesto replacing basil with carrot greens?
We cannot find basil anywhere but i was told you can cut the tops off carrots, place them in an inch of water and the carrot tops will sprout and grow an abundance of leafy greens which can be used as a basil replacement. Has anyone tried this? I have cut carrot tops in water and have some leaves poking out (2 days after cutting them and putting in water). Thanks.

Best brandy for cooking
I'm looking for the best brandy for cooking. I'd prefer to find something reasonably priced, but if the juice is worth the squeeze I'll spring for something a little more expensive.
Any general input regarding cooking with brandy is also welcome.
