There are science behind cooking but its mostly with methods instead of inputs. If anyone is interested [Salt Fat Acid Heat](https://www.saltfatacidheat.com/] and (The Food Lab)[https://www.amazon.com/Food-Lab-Cooking-Through-Science/dp/0393081087] are more scientific about methods and made for home cooks. You can also look at On Food and Cooking which is much more textbook like about the science of cooking. Its there but not in standardized measurements and units for recipes
I was thinking saying that expecting precision from a natural product is a fools errand. So embrace the imperfection and go crazy
I was a professional chemist for around ~7 and love to cook. My suggestion is to stop expecting precision with an imprecise and natural product like cooking. Are your lemons larger? They also might be sweeter, tarter, juicer etc. than others. Same thing with teaspoons. The spices you are using may be more or less concentrated than who wrote it.
Lean into the uncertainty and be free. Double or even triple spices to see if you like it. Measure with your heart
Typical double click request is as follows:
Manager: Leadership wants a “double click” on the numbers on slide 8.
Doer: What do they want to see.
M: Well they wanted to see more about the numbers on slide 8 they thought it was interesting.
D: What number? Interesting how?
M: They want a double click? Does that work? How long will that take?
D: ummm a week?
Because it’s new and awful. Also implies that these massive new work is just a simple tasks. 0/10
Different kind of crypto nerd but still
Don’t forget that their ads have a section about adding it to your amazon cart. Its awful
That was my thought. Blanching in my mind is quick and won’t work for this. There some protein / enzyme that needs to be deactivated. They weren’t crispy but still had some texture. It was great.
I heated some butter in a pan and added the fiddleheads and then put in ~1/4 cup of water in my pan and covered with a lid. They then steamed for ~5 minutes. So I don’t know if you would call that blanching but steaming. They need to be boiled or steamed from 5-8 minutes according to my foraging book. So I think blanching which in my mind is a quick boil won’t cook them enough. They are mildly poisonous unless cooked like lots of wild plants.
They worth the wait. For both the flavor and the novelty of it. Very fun to harvest and eat
I’m in the packing my yard with so many things that I can use from edimentals like my ostrich ferns, cut flowers, pollinators, medicinals, herbs and vegetables. You can really pack them in
I’ve moved a few already last year. I’ve had some pretty good luck moving them in the spring as well. i think I’ll move my largest again this fall. There’s some that haven’t even come up I think
I have a whole other shade spot that could use some.
Congrats Pope Bob!!!
Please don’t choke people during sex even consenting people. If you need the sensation just put your hands on their collarbone and don’t actually cut off their windpipe.
After reading some kink books that give detailed instructions about how to suspend people, to give people piecing, fake cutting people as well as convince your sub that you have a loaded gun in their mouth with the disclaimer about how dangerous choking is really puts in perspective. There are tools to safely cut off air supply don’t choke someone
I loved my EEEPC. I used while study abroad before smartphones were common. It was great to carry on me at all times. If I needed directions or to check on a website I would sit at a café / restaurant / bar to have a coffee / wine / beer to grab the wifi. It was great and small enough that I could carry it open if needed. I loved it. I thought it was the future until the iPad took over
My wife also has a better sense of smell then me. We don’t fight about it but I have spent a bunch of time trying to find the phantom smell.
She’s pregnant now and her super smell is even more potent. So I had to do a lot of kitchen cleaning and I had to a lot of cooking. It’s a thing for sure
Well I have a long term plan to become a Slash worker. I want to be a day job / Herbalist. So have some ideas about how to the last part in a much slower timeline. Need to keep the day job but don’t want it to be my only thing but its mostly talk at this point.
All the things I do for fun and hobbies I would do a lot more. Which would likely be the following:
But mostly I would work on living the permaculture / herbalism fantasy.
Sauces, Sauces and more sauces. I never user the flavor packet (Or just use a little bit) and add my own sauces. Soy sauce, fish sauce, hoisin, oyster sauce, miso etc. They are just sitting there ready to be used to make it delicious
My favorite burger restaurant Parlour does this. They have other things on the menu but I always just get the burger and fries. Its even better from the food truck.
