Sherry in OH Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Does buttercream frosting spoil? I found a small dish of it shoved to the back of the refrigerator. It was made in mid-February. It looks and smells fine. Make a small cake or toss the frosting? What can I do with barley, other than barley soup? Vegetarian-friendly ideas preferred. What are your favorite white rice flour recipes that do not require exotic ingredients? At the moment, yeast is exotic. I don't remember buying the flour but probably intended to try to make dosa.

regentrude Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 (edited) Barley is great as a cooked grain in salads. Or as the base for grain bowls. I am not sure how the cook time compares wth farro, but this is one of my favorite dishes to make and you should be able to do it with barley: https://smittenkitchen.com/2013/07/one-pan-farro-with-tomatoes/ I would toss the frosting. I don't think it can still taste good, even though it may be safe as butter and sugar don't spoil.

SamanthaCarter Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I’d toss the frosting, it was made with inexpensive ingredients and has no nutritional value. Make a pilaf with the barley. Rice flour -no idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairiewindmomma Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Toss the frosting. I’d use the rice flour for roti. Use a 1:1 ratio with warm water and a pinch of salt. That’s it. Roll it out, and cook it in the skillet. For the barley, I would put it into a curry. Google a recipe with whatever ingredients you have. 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d probably grab a spoon, take it to the basement and eat it all by myself . We’ve got a serious shortage of sweet stuff in our house right now, lol. Or sandwiched in Graham crackers if you have those but have run out of milk... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to make cakes for people and my kids grew up eating leftover buttercream on graham crackers for a snack. I generally freeze leftover buttercream but If it’s in the fridge I’d let it come to room temp and try some to see if it still tastes good. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pen Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Barley can be used similar to rice, like as a grain with a stir fry. Or can be used as a breakfast porridge like oatmeal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
