I got all the stuff to make jambalaya except I forgot chicken broth. can I make it with water instead?
>>7185288
Just add a packet from some ramen same thing
>>7185288
Nope. It's the stock that makes jambalaya.
it won't be as good
do you have a jar of condensed stock or bouillon? even vegeta mixed with the water will be better than just water

>even vegeta mixed with the water will be better than just water
What liquid from Vegeta are you going to mix in with the water, anon?
>>7185311
Yeah cream of chicken or something is a decent alternative that's normally just in people's pantries randomly.
Next time you're out, go to the mexican spice section and buy some chicken buillon cubes. They make things taste delicious.

Can we even use mexican spices in jambalaya?

>chicken buillon cubes
>in the mexican spice section
Jesus Christ Americans, what is wrong with you?
>>7185519
What's wrong with bullion cubes? Or are you just against mexican spices?
ok seriously though, all I have is 6 boneless chicken thighs, sausage, and peppers and onions. what can I do here?
>>7185688
go to the store for chicken broth
>>7185742
I already explained that I can't
>>7185288
Jambalaya is, by nature, a mix of sausage, rice, and whatever else you have on hand. Go right on ahead.
>>7185771
should I cut up all the stuff ahead of time and try to simmer the chicken trimmings and vegetable bits first?
>>7185909
Do you have beer and/or white wine?
>>7186124
I have beer but it's old rasputin so I don't think it would work.
>>7185909
yes. add some paprika and butter and it will be delicious
>>7185288
DONT FORGET ABOUT THE SHRI-I-I-IMP
>>7186355
do I cook the chicken and vegetable bits first or just throw them in raw?
>>7186402
brown meats then set aside
deglaze
soften veggies in meats juices
add liquid
add seasoning
add meats
add rice
cook until the rice is tender and absorbed all liquid

Don't pay attention to these retards. Bouillon cubes and powder are in the regular spice section and the canned and packaged soup, pasta, and rice aisle, as well.
>>7185288
if you don't have any flavoring for the rice, you're pretty much just making rice with sauce and vegetables which would just be something some Asian family eats. It'll still be tasty, just not as good.
