    Zest beats bitters in this case, I completely agree. The sweetness of the benedictine needs the acid to balance the drink.

    Totally agree. It’s hard to convey to clients that I can’t really tell them they can do anything. All I can do is tell them what I think will minimize their risk. It’s a hard line to walk without being seen as an impediment to doing business.

    I sometimes give talks about IP law to comic book creators. It’s amazing how many bright line ‘rules’ people think are out there, that aren’t. And remember, the internet is a global medium, so a rule in one place may not be in another.

    Good tip. Do you find that the hot liquid affects your dilution?

    Just a note that these things really work! When combined with heat shocking my strawberries and blueberries stay good for 4-6 weeks.

    For Roku users, check out the custom skill here to achieve similar functionality. It requires specifying the device, unlike this new video API, but is still pretty impressive.

    Does this take into account the amount of ginger from the bag that actually goes into the tea? Seems like that could be quite small.

    Now with 1/10^5 real humble pie!

    Thanks for the well reasoned reply Beth. I’ve learned something! I retract my earlier statements.

    Just because you as a person in the field understand the article doesn’t mean it’s not misleading to an average consumer. This article is meant to give helpful advice regarding choosing “medicine” (to use the term loosely) to lay people, who would understandably be confused by the various uses of the term…

    This article is misleading, because the use of “homeopathy” has changed beyond the definition given here. Cold-eeze, for example, is explicitly marked “homeopathic,” but doesn’t fit into the definition here. So is Sambucol, despite containing large amounts of an active ingredient (elderberry extract) supported by…

    Totally agree. The idea that ice negatively dilutes coffee ignores the fact that we can dilute coffee to whatever level we like to begin with. If ice dilutes too much, brew stronger coffee.

    This is really two stories muddled together. The first story—that licensing of MP3 patents has stopped—has nothing to do with the longevity of the technology. In fact, if it’s no longer legally restricted, we might see a resurgence in integration and use (like the GIF). The idea that someone giving up their…

    Worth noting here that (as per Modernist Cuisine), the FDA exempts tuna from flash freezing requirements. I’m not sure why.

    Does anyone else find the use of “they” in the title disturbing? This is not a shadowy secret society. It’s the GOP.

    I’m no expert here, but I suspect that meat is a “maybe” depending on the conditions. Dry aged meat often has mold on the outside, which is cut away to reveal the steak. Usually, that’s on the “fat cap”—a dense area of fat that would prevent spoilage of the interior. It’s usually also desiccated during the dry age…
