Xanthan has a tendency to give things a snotty texture, so I’d be very careful about proportion if you decide to use it. You’d probably be better off trying to replicate a gomme syrup with some gum arabic, but you’ll still never get the body of a sugar syrup using zero-calorie sweetener.

Yeah, it’s supposed to be a mouthful of cherry tomatoes.

You forgot the clam juice.

Throw some bitters into the whiskey ginger and thats basically the best thing you can drink short of a craft cocktail.

The kosher salt boom began because most people were buying iodized salt, which is garbage. If you’re buying non-iodized table salt, good for you if you like it.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer guy either. What a crybaby.

I do always think its amusing that much of our meat has been rebranded as something other than what it is. You’re not eating a cow, that’s beef! Totally different thing, was never alive. Same for pork, not sure what a pig is exactly but pork is delicious and also it just grows on trees. Veal is baby beef! Don’t want…

If you haven’t tried BTB, you don’t know what you’re talking about. Homemade stock is great and all, but convenient, powerful, concentrated chicken flavor in a jar is the way to go, and the ingredient list reads like food.

Try Better Than Boullion, the shelf-stable stuff in the jar.

Only?

Can I get a beer cereal tho.

I dunno, I thought the movie was well-made and tastefully done, plus anytime they want to get Kanno doing more soundtrack work is ok by me. If there is going to be anymore Bebop, and I agree that it would be better to leave it alone, it should be stuff like the movie that fits into the series run, not a prequel or…

I thoroughly disagree on the speed piece, I find the ergonomics of the brush let me blast through dishes much quicker than a sponge ever did.

True story, the brush does a better job of cleaning almost anything over a sponge. Sponge has a little better leverage when you’ve got really stuck on crap, but the ergonomics of the brush make the process so much faster. Not to mention impossible-to-clean-with-a-sponge stuff like a blender canister is child’s play…

Are you a sponge person a brush person? I used to go with the sponge out of habit and just years of whatever, but I recently started using a bottle brush we have for breastfeeding cleanup purpose and does it ever speed up the process.

Stop, I can only get so erect!

You should try the Lilypad variation of this: equal parts gin, violette, cointreau, lemon.

More specifically it doesn’t disinfect the sponges.

A chicken is not a pet.

The mussel recipe in the following link is by far the best I’ve ever made:
