Risotto aux asperges vertes

- végétarien

Aujourd’hui, je vous propose une recette salée, parfaite pour un bon dîner : un risotto parfait et pas si calorique que ça.

Difficulté : facile

Temp de préparation : 40 minutes

Recette pour 4 personnes

Les ingrédients :

300g de riz pour risotto

1 oignon

70cl de bouillon de légume

10cl de vin blanc sec

30g de parmesan

1 botte d’asperges vertes (à défaut d’en avoir des fraîches, des asperges en boîtes feront l’affaire)

5cl d’huile d’olive

Sel

Poivre

La recette :

Cassez les bases ligneuses de vos asperges vertes. Pelez-les légèrement.

Plongez-les dans une casserole remplie d’eau bouillante salée et faites-les cuire 5 minutes.

Déposez-les sur du papier absorbant puis coupez-les en morceaux, en gardant quelques-unes entières pour la décoration.

Épluchez et lavez votre oignon, puis, ciselez-le.

Rincez le riz pour risotto.

Dans un wok où une sauteuse, ajoutez l’huile d’olive, et faites suer les oignions quelques minutes.

Ajoutez ensuite le riz et remuez sans arrêt.

Ajoutez le bouillon petit à petit.

Une fois le riz cuit, sortez le du feu et ajoutez le parmesan et les asperges. Mélangez.

Salez et poivrez à votre convenance.

Ajoutez un peu de ciboulette ou du basilc frais si vous le désirez.

Il ne vous reste plus qu’à déguster !

Snow Film and the Sleeping Remake

This is a very opinionated post based on a class discussion. 

Evil step mothers. We have them. We love to hate them. Our favorite princess’s basic human rights may have been ignored by one. Actually, we might just love them. We’ve seen the evil step mother in most Disney princess films. If she’s not a step mom, she’s some hot witch who refuses to let her throne or powers be diminished by some young uncultured youth who her son met two hours ago. That or she’s mad cause a man cut off her wings.

But what about the codification of these “good” and “bad” characters. I’m gonna be honest I don’t know what codification means so give me one sec.

Alright. According to Google it is the processes of arranging laws or rules according to a system or plan.

So, if the good and bad guys are codified in these Disney princess films, or in fairytales in general what would their codification be?

Bad guy: dark colors, sexy, widow

Good guy: light colors, innocent, naïve, has little to no control over what happens to her

Maleficent and Snow White adheres to these rules quite well. Especially, Maleficent.

Before I jump into that let’s talk about Sun, Moon, and Talia by Giambattista Basilc. 

This folktale published in 1634 influenced the Sleeping Beauty we know today. But this one is a bit darker. A (married) man finds this girl cursed to sleep forever and apparently, she was so hot that he couldn’t help but do the devil’s tango with her dormant body. She wakes up with two kids. Those kids are eaten by the dude’s jealous wife. Plot twist the cook tricked the mean wife and the kids and the dude and the totally not sexually abused woman lived happily ever after.

This brings up some interesting topics.

Who is the villain? The man or his wife or both?…

The generational gap between the heroine and the cannibalistic woman…

The knight in shining armor archetype…

Whose voice is heard…

We noticed that monster goes from being the man (Sun, Moon and Talia) to being the oldest woman (Snow White/ Sleeping Beauty). A woman who cannot produce children and she is evil because she can’t do what women were made to do and that is to have children and never talk and be happy with whatever she’s got because she’s got a man now so all things are good.

Sorry I didn’t mean to go off there.

This not only builds a barrier between generations of women, but it silences the voice of the heroine. Good girls don’t talk. And if they do, they aren’t good. They are evil and full of hatred and greed because they have their own ideas and that’s not what women where made for. At least that’s what these messages are saying. Perhaps I’m exaggerating (although I doubt it). But consider the fact that instead of producing a conversation on the injustice of sexual assault these stories create generational conflict. Instead of watching out for men who can’t control their lust over a literal sleeping woman, women should keep their eye on older women because those old hags might be jealous of their youth and beauty.

And what about the idea that a woman is most beautiful when she is sleeping? We discussed that this is often the trope given to young heroines at the brink of their sexual awakening. Once they cross that line between child and adulthood it’s best they go to sleep. Let the men do all the work. Wake up with two bright eyed kids. Live happily ever after. Romanticizing the female corpses is odd but common.

Also, if you’re magically sleeping, frozen in time, you can’t age. You’re beautiful and young forever so double perfection. America seems to have this fear of aging that transitions over to the fears of evil step mothers. These women also associate youth with beauty and will do anything to maintain their beauty.

Maybe I’m being mean. Maybe these stories are inspiration, ground-breaking pieces of media that change hearts and purify minds.

Tracey Mollet wrote an essay titled, “With a Smile and a Song:’ Walt Disney and the Birth of the American Fairy Tale,” Marvels & Tales”. There she discusses the origin and impact Disney fairy tales had on the American nation.

Snow White came out during the Great Depression. And it was just what America needed. An escape from realism. It taught morality, as these nature loving heroines were kind and optimistic. It conveyed the idea that material wealth is not important, but it’s what’s on the inside that truly matters. It created what Mollet referred to as a, “idealistic utopian” (Mollet 123).

But what about the unrealistic portrayal of women in the media? What about our voices? Does modern media aid to fix this issue? Or is it another ploy to feed us once and empty our pockets?

Maleficent directed by Robert Stromberg in 2014 gives the villain a voice. We learn her origin, the reason for her evil, the truth of her good. But what. About. The heroine?

Still as optimistic and beautiful and as sleep as ever. Lacking in initiative, loving every breathing thing that crosses her path. And yes I am being kind of mean and people disagree with my stance but I see no difference between this heroine and the one from the cartoon, other than the fact that she doesn’t need a man. But I guess for those who disagree with me that is enough....

This is such an intriguing trope and I have mixed feelings. Yes, I do think these stories can inspire people to be hopeful and kind, but what if I find it inspiring because I’ve been conditioned my whole life to think that one set of stories is good? That this is what women should be like and I should just go with the flow? But there’s a shift. I think our voices are starting to be heard but I’m not sure if it’s just so these Hollywood producers can get our butts on those precious theater seats. I do think it’s getting better, but I don’t want it only at the hands of men either. Equality in the media is a great idea but when will that happen?

And if it does happen, will we know?

I don’t know but this new Maleficent might change some things. For the better? We can only hope.

 Thank you for reading.

TP Link

No not toilet paper, this device is a smartplug and like the previous smart plug i had reviewed this device can be paired with your phone to be accessed while on the go. Personaly I would attach one to the stove, so if I forget to turn it off I can just pull out my phone. God don't you love the 21'st century. Unlike the prvious smartplug I had reviewed this device has an ajustable port. Meaning if your not in the us you can basilcally just switch it out to match, other than that theres not too much deference between this and the iHome smart plug I has reviewed so, take you pick. Which one would best suit you?

Price estimated to be between $21 and $25

a lil offtop. a term ‘lesbian’ imply both sexuality and romantic? or can it imply one and then later specified the other? basilcally can amity be lesbi and bi romantic? I mean if she is not, totally cool, but theoretically does this break anything? i am just not that good with terms and stuff

Amity/Lux/Hunter is valid, Yes, Amity is a lesbian and should not be shipped with hunter, but y'all are forgetting that poly just as well exists in vees as well as it does in triangles. And for Lunter on it's alone; Why the hell are you mad??? Yes he's basic as hell but I bet one of your favs is aswell??? Sibling dynamic hcs and ships coexist all the time??? Y'all forget luz is bi????

Mousse au fromage VegNature à la Framboises et basilc ! :-) Cette petite mousse est super simple à faire. Dans un robot ou au malaxeur, on mélange une bûchette de VegNature Nature, du lait d'amande, un peu de vanille, du sirop d'érable et du sucre, Lorsque le mélange est crémeux, on goûte et on ajuste le sucre, soit avec un peu plus de sirop d'érable ou de sucre, selon votre goût.
