by stealing someone else’s cultural identity? sounds pretty fucking stupid to me.

After seeing the word claggy I can only hear your comment in the voice of Prue Leith now. 

Bite is everything. I should have added that. These must be just al dente to be “not claggy.”

Time for another round of “campaign fundraising*” I guess.

“I have carried out my work at AFSC with integrity”

I use a timer as a baseline but always taste test a piece and adjust from there. I think I might have some stale product sometime that takes a little longer than normal.

Attention

I never use the timer - except for this stuff and baked goods (even then I rely on my nose a lot - I can smell “done”). SEVEN minutes for the BANZA penne I have with zero variation. BUT- If I intend to put it in something in another pan, I’ll go six and let the steam finish it with the rest of the ingredients and a…

When I worked at a retirement home the chef sometimes used fish protein noodles to give the residents more protein in their diet.  I never tried them, but the residents said they tasted and felt just like regular pasta.

What you said is spot on. They do seem to have a narrow window between undercooked and gummy. One 8 ounce box of Banza gets bulked out to 6 or more meal servings for me with extra protein and veg that I often try to cut in a shape that sort of mimics the pasta shape.

No, not just “unhealthy” - full on dangerous for a lot of people. The better statement would be “This is why I just more closely limit my sugar intake” - which few people know to do and why so many people nowadays are having cardiovascular issues and pre and full on type 2 diabetes. Lots of strokes and heart attacks…

These are the only kinds of pasta I eat. Are they less than ideal, yes. Is it better than no pasta at all because I have to manage blood sugars for diabetes, yes. Most gluten free marketing is just pandering but these have real value if you have to manage carbohydrate intake for medical reasons.

Fuck her, kid is better off without her using it as a literal shield.

Kind of a huge fucking ethical difference between a pregnant woman or new mom being arrested and an evil narcissist piece of shit who conceives a baby AFTER BEING CONVICTED of serious charges.

Ripping newborns and infants away from their parents?

Holmes has reportedly said “pretty people like me” don’t go to jail

Or, another thought is that she got pregnant and had babies knowing there was a 99% probability she was going to jail. What a pig.

If they do send her to jail is she just going to throw out the kids since they didn’t work?

You MUST follow the prep instructions on the non wheat pastas. Unless you enjoy gummy. It also helps to use less pasta in whatever you’re making (and more veg and protein). I haven’t tried the edamame yet but have enjoyed both of the others. 

There are few chicken applications that would still be great at that level of charring but a yogurt based marinade that’s clingy like some tandoori is one. It’s the coating that’s getting a little char not the chicken. But that’s a very specific application.
