  • UFC parent company lost $30M on White House fight

    Jump

  • And as usual, any extra expenses coming from the UFC will just work out to less revenue for the fighters in the end, who have already been chronically underpaid for years.

  • Live, laugh, Lovecraft

    Jump

  • By far the best Gauld strip I've ever read. Most of them are clever, but dry as toast.

  • Curried fried rice with egg and naan

    Jump

  • That I don't understand, if it's not for nutrition nor rising purposes.

    Or is it..?

  • Hermes by ferrebeekeeper

    Jump

  • Awesome blog.I keep meaning to delve into it more, but the lure of doomscrolling keeps interfering with that, sadly. 😕

    (whoops, I meant that emoji in my comment, not as a reaction)

    Jump

  • Yeast as in nutritional yeast?

    Side note: I just made a pleasant discovery just now. It turns out the local super happened to have Ezekiel bread tucked away in one of their freezer cases. I'd heard about this stuff and thought I'd have to go to the bigger, more distant super to find it. Bought some provolone and plan to make open-face melted cheese sandwiches with it. Will post here if it turns out okay.

  • TIL about the Gordie Howe International Bridge which connects the USA to Canada near Detroit and that it was completed a week ago

    Jump

  • Canada might just want to scuttle it soon, the way things are going. 😑

  • Curried Rice

    Jump

  • Nah, I checked, and it turns out I just have the common Chinese variety. ("cassia" I think it was)

    You have that delicate Ceylon cinnamon type ..?

    You should post about it, dude!!

  • Curried Rice

    Jump

  • Good point. The ones I have are from Badia (Latino brand). They're thick and hard, but I'm not sure which of the two type of cinnamon they are. Definitely worth a research.

  • One of my biggest regrets about moving West is no international groceries within reach, consarnit. Btw, what do you use to grind seeds & stuff, coffee grinder or mortar & pestle..?

    Thanks for the offer. I'll try to see what Exchanger Joseph's & Heinan's have to offer and possibly take you up on that. I'm down to just ghee and a bag of panch puran (seed mix) for Indian dishes, but the latter is pretty strong and typically only used in some dishes, far as I know. Real garam masala would be something I've never actually cooked with before, outside of the overpriced, limp, McCormick-style powder.

  • Curried Rice

    Jump

  • Sounds awesome. It's hard for me to get cardamom pods & garam masala around here, but maybe at Trader Joe's or something. Love the cinnamom stick usage also, as it's so underrated. I also find that it typically lasts maybe 2-3 cookings for me, and afterwards can still be left to dry and enjoyed as a sort of jerky / cigarette substitute.

    Would love to see how this tastes with SCO subbed for rice.

  • xkcd #3280: Maze

    Jump

  • Buried the lede!

  • What is a life lesson you never seem to learn?

    Jump

  • True in many cases, or maybe most of the time, but the way things are going, there really are a load of existential things at work to be both aware of, wary of, and take precautions against.

    These are not the 'simple times' of even 20yrs ago.

  • While we're on the subject of pizza

    Jump

  • Yup. The science is well-documented and sound. Fast heat-flow, baby.

    I'm in the middle of a pizza steel project myself.

  • While we're on the subject of pizza

    Jump

  • Pizza steel, awesome.

    Fresh oregano, check. Also maybe try rocket / arugala sometime. It pairs especially well with certain cheeses, like goat.

  • Gramfel #21 [Nhoj]

    Jump

  • Pretty awesome.

    Some major Crazy Dave Cooper vibes, there.

  • Maybe a personal chef, then. You have the versatility, creativity and cooking science / chemistry down pretty good, par exemple.

    Jump

  • It can be quite the shark tank, from what I understand. The pressure in many restaurants can be sky high to perform fast and efficiently for long stretches, all in typically cramped, hot kitchens with all kinds of hot, sharp and dangerous objects around you. Not to mention people jostling you here and there, inevitably creating accidents from time to time.

    Not all positions and stations have all those issues, but the point is that kitchen-work is often a hard, precision and/or boring type of job performed in too-small areas with not enough considerations for safety and sanity. It's incredibly common from what I understand for workers to self-medicate on the job, which can also be a toxic workspace, with hierarchies, miserable bosses and constant swearing going on, not to mention inevitable tension between workers. Oh, and all whilst typically being underpaid and under-respected.

    What I hear a lot is that getting yourself a job as a chef or worker at retirement / community homes can greatly improve almost everything mentioned above.

    All of that just describes what I've seen, experienced and read about, of course. I'm sure there are also situations and worldwide areas where these things aren't such an issue.

  • There was a translation issue and limon became lemon.

    Despite Castellano being my first language, I'm a terribly-bad speaker. Yet if I understand correctly, we commonly say "limon verdes" for limes in Mexico & S. America (i.e. "green lemons"), and that's how that works.

    This is just... apropos of nothing, but one time a GF and I were driving across the country, and we stopped in Amarillo. I really liked how the sound of such Texas towns rang in my ear until I got almost thumped upside the head for pronouncing them in Castellano (Spanish). (you know, with double-"L" sounding like "Y" and such) So I learned how to say "ahm-a-RIHL-oh" whilst driving through the Longhorn State. 😅

    Don't mess with Texans, I guess was that lesson.
