#Hard Boiled Eggs

[one-time-i-dreamt]

I made hard-boiled eggs, and my little sister kept eating them with the shell still on. She doesn't even like eggs.

The dishes for Dinner are the roasted chicken and pork that mum bought for the morning prayer. The chicken is chopped up and roasted pork sliced then reheated. That hard-boiled egg is one of the red eggs that mum dyed, which I peeled and added some of the tangy chilli sauce for the roasted chicken along with a few slices of pickled daikon.

i just looked up a recipe for hard boiled eggs and i’ve never felt more stupid

[knightotoc]

My last two sets of hard-boiled eggs have been soggy disasters but I just made some absolutely perfect ones👏 I still got it👏

Method:

Boil a pot of water on stove at highest temp

When it's a rolling boil, add two eggs

Put lid on, turn stove off, but leave the pot on the stove (this is where I was fucking up)

Wait 10 min

At the last min, get another bowl and put ice cubes in it

Get distracted for a few min writing a post about wicked on tumblr

By now the ice water should be cold af, take a slotted spoon and transfer the eggs from the hot water to the cold water, this apparently makes them shrink or whatever

Get your zillionth fucking bowl, something with a good edge, and crack the eggs

Dump the cold water in the hot water so you can reuse the bowl and put the eggs in it with salt pepper and whatever spices you wanna get rid of

Compost the shells and water your plants with the water, don't waste that, Palisades is still at 23713 acres

"Strange Flower" or "Controversy" Overcooked Hard-boiled Egg with Mayonnaise

(Clip Studio Paint, Gouache Brush, Airbrush for Paprika and Pepper. 12 colors, about 30 minutes.) Woke up with this idea. Mayo is a controversial condiment and I 100% understand. I hate custard filling in things like donuts. It's goopy, a little salty, and it has that texture to it that screams to your brain that "this is uncooked and probably bad to eat." And I think mayo is like that for lots of people, but worse. Because it's salty and a little sour and that same "uncooked" texture all sends the same signal but more like "this is rotten and falling apart. It's not good to eat." But I like mayo. Maybe I just got introduced to it in a more postitive way than custard or creme pat. Maybe because most creme pat comes to me in a donut at room temp and mayo usually comes from a refrigerated jar. Maybe it's because both are a little salty and eggy and so mayo reads as "a good sensible condiment for burgers and sandwiches and slaw salads" while creme pat reads as an "aberration that could only be put in a donut by accident." But then I think humans just kind of don't like seeing fatty substances all in one big glob. Same way lard is a common cooking ingredient in many non-USA countries but people in the "northern" non-farming USA see lard and only think "byproduct" like bacon grease and feel a visceral disgust the way I feel about burger grease. I think a lot of things are like that in life. Some of it's genetic, like the way cilantro tastes like soap to some and like a tasty floral herb to others. Some of it is experience, like a taste aversion to plums after a bad summer. And some of it is social. How we're taught to be disgusted by "byproducts" because that's not the thing we're intending to make, or it only happens when the thing you're making turns out "wrong." Some of it is political. I'm sure you all have ideas. And I think, on the one hand, disgust is useful. We get sick if we eat expired foods. We can die if we eat the wrong berry or mushroom. Being wary of the new is safe. An on the other hand, unbridled disgust is the enemy of curiosity and growth and discovery. When we turn away from things that make us uncomfortable, we lose a chance to learn.

So on the one hand I think this piece is about my experiences becoming a more adventurous eater in my adulthood. I still don't like creme patissiere. But I'm not going to waste a donut because of it anymore. I don't like red bean paste. But at least I know what it tastes like now, and it's not just a blind discomfort around something new. I'll never get over how the texture of glutinous rice cakes remind me of chewing gum, a thing I've been taught to spit out. But I can understand why people like mochi.

And I think on another hand (many hands today) this piece is also about how @quezify plays with disgust and horror and beauty. And how that curiosity disgusts some people and enamors others. How it ties you in knots. How wound dressing and debridement are all at once an act of love and an act of mutilation. How there's beauty there in something so instinctively disgusting.

Dunno exactly. That's what the art's there for, I guess. To express what I can't quite put in words. I hope it's disgusting, and I hope it's beautiful.

I wonder if @lady-quen's breadbugs will have fun with this one?

Speed paint~

I don't know if my style can really render any gravitas to it, with how soft everything is, but I hope it speaks to someone.
