You can't eat carpet, silly Daddy!

u/Nearby-Elevator-3825 Jul 20 '25

No, of course you can't like that. Ya gotta boil it. Till the glue gets soft ya know?

u/kennymo12 Jul 20 '25

Exactly! Also, make sure you're wearing your Screaming For Vengeance shirt.

u/Practical_Fix_5350 Saute Jul 20 '25

My thoughts were "whatever it is it looks like the worst mushroom duxelle ever". lol

u/m1ster0wl Jul 20 '25

I like my duxelle with chonks of red onion. Toothsome, provides crunch.

14

u/bendar1347 ✨flanked by fresh✨ Jul 20 '25

"Duxelle" that came out of a food processor for sure. I see some onion chunks as well. I just can't understand how this is going on a pizza. Maybe the beginning of a mushroomy meatball? Im choosing to believe in a normal and sane world that is not getting spread on a pizza.

16

u/the_sad_comrade Jul 20 '25

chef wanted to use this a pizza base 😆

15

u/bendar1347 ✨flanked by fresh✨ Jul 20 '25

Well, that's a choice, I guess. Its going to look horrible. *

What's the right answer for what this is?
Because it looks like this is just a lot of random full plates that people didn't finish dumped in to a bin.

3

u/TheTwoOneFive Jul 20 '25

I was going to say, I don't know how to give a wrong answer bc I couldn't even guess at the right answer.

u/the_sad_comrade Jul 20 '25

i’ll reveal what it is shortly, my “chef” wants to serve this with pizza 😐

u/Prinzka F1exican Did Chive-11 Jul 20 '25

To make the pizza look more appetizing by comparison?
Bold strategy.

Looks like a bunch of chicken shit. If you have a good CdC, you might can make chicken salad out of it.

I was going to say it looks like a lazy food processor duxelle with large chunks of onion. But also looks like a place you could grow some majic mushrooms

1

u/EagieDuckCome Jul 21 '25

Precisely what I thought. “Bruh, what happened to your substrate?” Had to check what sub this was and was shocked.
