Slow Cooker Cassoulet

Since contracting Long Covid, I have found it too difficult to manage working and cooking most days of the week. So I have been using the slow cooker as my main cooking tool, enabling me to prepare food in a simpler method, but still ensuring that we have exciting delicious food! I used to spend time browning all of the ingredients and reducing stock, before placing in the slow cooker, but I have…

Another cooking event, yippee !!

I love Jamil just outright refusing to eat the food and then you have Kalim suffering in silence and eating because he's too nice

The most important part of the Altissia chapter is when they're being questioned by customs and Ignis looks at their party of:

1) Him 2) A college age punk 3) A man wider and taller than a fridge wearing no shirt and with several enormous scars 4) The actual crown prince of a neighboring country, making no effort to disguise himself

and decides their best cover story is

"✨We are students of the culinary arts.✨"

And it works.

The Best Cooking System in ANY Videogame

Project Zomboid has hands down THE BEST cooking system in any minigame. Not only are there literal hundreds of ingredients you can make snacks, stews, soups and stir-frys with, but the game also takes into account all of the ingredients' nutritional value and whether or not they belong in that type of dish (for example you can't put ice cream or coffee in a soup) This is also great for another two reasons. First of all, it mirrors how actual people who know how to cook do so - with what's left on hand. As great at trying specificrecipes with measured proportions and ingredients is, the most effective way to prove you're a decent cook is to be able to make delicious food from a random assortment of gorceries left in your fridge, the ingenuity and spontaneity really shows when one knows how different foods react with each other and how they'd compliment other ingredients. Secondly, THIS IS A ZOMBIE GAME. Not only does it have a fantastic cooking system, it also has in-depth vehicle mechanics, furniture construction, realistic tailoring AND foraging, on top of a map bigger than 90% of videogames.

100% serious they should sell blood in grocery stores

egg is notoriously difficult to substitute in the kitchen due to its unique properties. for people with egg allergy, the prevalence of egg in baking is a difficult thing to deal with.

blood has all the same unique properties of egg, namely protein and coagulants. it contains albumin, which is similar enough to the problematic protein found in egg whites (ovalbumin), in similar proportion. it's been tested as a substitute for egg in baking already

blood is already collected for blood meal, a plant fertilizer. it's not food grade, so don't go baking with it, but the infrastructure to collect and process blood is already in place. pasteurize it, maybe filter some of the metals out or leave them in for an iron supplement. put it in a carton and send it to the stores.

why are we not doing this? my guess is mainly cultural. although blood has been a part of human cuisine forever, most people probably gagged reading this post, and there's not enough people allergic to eggs to make this worth it. if blood were commercially available as a food grade substitute for egg, people with egg allergies would be able to more easily enjoy baked goods and baking at home, and it could be a useful iron supplement as well.

my proposal? rebrand the blood. it needs to be called something like Iron-Egg or Albumite or something like that. give it a cool name and make it seem less blood-like and i bet the public would go for it... eventually

this alongside introducing more insect and plant protein could help us make better use of the animals we slaughter and reduce our need for high chicken populations in farms. but, i'm talking about eating blood and bugs. good luck, humanity. i hope we learn to eat better soon.

Slow Cooker Jamaican Oxtails

Since becoming disabled, I have had to change the way I cook, simplifying it, but I still want good food with balanced flavor. The slow cooker is my friend, as it is safe to use and requires just dropping in ingredients. I use ingredients that require minimum prep, such as pre-chopped frozen vegetables, jarred garlic or ginger, and canned beans. It’s amazing how international cooking adapts to…

We all know that haikyuu is packed with life lessons, especially about growth and competition but one of the things that brought me so much comfort in life is the story of Miya twins. Both Osamu and Atsumu were hard workers but what differentiated them when it comes to volleyball prowess was their priorities. Osamu being a naturally gifted athlete was a major push in Atsumu's life; they made each other better (and worse in some ways). But it was Atsumu's choice to become a professional player and a great setter that pulled him ahead. Atsumu was dedicated to it and if Osamu wanted he could've reached the same skill level (or maybe even more).

Basically as long as you love and want something enough, despite there being "better" people out there, you'll reach greatness in your own right. And I think it's beautiful that consistent effort, even if it takes longer than "natural talent" (which is a topic for another day), will get you where you want to be.

Also, you can be good at something and even have potential to be greater and yet not choose it. You don't HAVE TO pursue anything just because it's expected or even possibly the most natural course for you to take. What matters is what you love.
