I need to stuff bell peppers and portabello's tomorrow STAT. Our fridge broke and I will not lose them. I have some ground pork meat but I need inspiration.

And if anyone can think of a way to use plain yogurt (not as a part of the stuffed veggies), I'd appreciate hearing it.

I use plain yogurt in my smoothies

I also use it as a sauce base or dip base. If you take 3 or 4 sheets of paper towel, dump some yogurt on top and then bring the corners together and tie it off, you can let this hang over a bowl in the fridge for a day or so. The yogurt will drain excess moisture out and you'll be left with a thick tangy greek-style yogurt.

Combine that with seasonings and it's fantastic.

Lost Salient · July 2011

Yesss please.

I have another stupid cooking question for you guys. I could look it up but that seems like it would require things like 'new tabs' and 'typing in search bars'...

Last summer I bought myself a candy thermometer. The old school kind because I'm poor. I make caramels and curds and other temperature-crucial things fairly often and I'm pretty neurotic so even though I'm capable of doing a competent job without one and had done so for years, I thought it was a good investment.

Now the calibration's gone all wonky though. How do I readjust this shit so the needle isn't wobbling around aimlessly? Can't I... do something with a pair of pliers, or...? Did I kill it through neglect?

yesssss

Shazkar Shadowstorm · July 2011

i need more lunch ideas

or even just more salad ideas

i'm doing the whole avoid bread thing when i can (though that falls apart on weekends when eating out and whatnot, but whatever), so i pretty much just always bring salads, with like, pepper, avocado, spinach, maybe another veggie or some berries, and a can of salmon or something

i'm sure i could be more creative here

Tef · July 2011

Rocket, pear, walnut and Parmesan is a really good salad combination

You aren't sure about the calibration temperature?

Boiling water is a pretty good constant.

Butters · July 2011

Yeah boil some water and set that bitch to 212F and you should be good.

Stale · July 2011

Not to go all Mr. Wizard on you guys, but that will be greatly impacted by her elevation from sea-level.

DrZiplock · July 2011

Then wouldn't it also stand to reason that whatever she is cooking would be affected by elevation and therefore a reading of 212F, while perhaps a touch off of baseline, would still be accurate for recipes?

BEAST! · July 2011

I agree with Stale. Also how many Haechi's are involved in the test.

Butters · July 2011

I'm guessing she doesn't live in Denver or Death Valley but either way if you know your elevation it's not hard to find the actual boiling point of water in your area.

A few hundred feet does not impact it very much at all.

bwanie · July 2011

yeah it's not like she's sitting atop of Everest

edit: hmm, 3.3 degrees celcius per kilometer is still a significant change.

Butters · July 2011

A kilometer is a significant elevation that not too many major cities reach.

Does Muse live in a big city? i dunno.

Anywho i agree that it's not very likely, but's it's not unheard of.

I've been in villages in Tenerife that had Internet well above 1500m

Muse Among Men · July 2011

Gotta make a yogurt base sauce TODAY because our fridge is boken AGAIN. Cooking against time. Ya know, before all our stuff spoils.

Butters · July 2011

Hurray for excuses to indulge!

Stale · July 2011

Look, assholes.

She's over in Korea-ville. I don't know shit about Korea-land. Nor do I know anything about the general topography of Korea-land.

She could be living in a mountain cave at 20k feet for all I know. Or maybe she's in a hut in some kind of Korean sub-Saharan desert.

Shit is like the moon. Never been there.

Stale · July 2011

But when candy making, a few degrees can be the difference between a good caramel or a brittle.

So that shit matters.

Tzatziki!

I have no clue how to make it, but it's delicious.

Butters · July 2011

The real question is what jackass would make candy when you could just beat some kid up and take theirs.

Fyndir · July 2011

I am getting better at ginger biscuits.

I would branch out into other biscuits, but I don't wanna spoil a good thing, you know?

Butters · July 2011

Don't ask Dan about biscuits because he doesn't know how to make them. His are more like bitchscuits. Bitchscuits to go with his bitch eggs.

Shazkar Shadowstorm · July 2011

But but but that's what I did! I was born in Pontiac! My whole family for generations back is from either Illinois, Iowa or Ohio!

Anyway I checked and it looks like the general altitude of Seoul is 282 feet, maybe sliightly higher for me since I live on a small mountainside (in a hut that I built in my cave). So the difference is essentially nonexistent for me. Gonna give recalibrating this bitch a shot today. Thanks for the helping helpfulness, folks.

(Also if you were worried my almond brittle turned out just fine without it, and no Haechis were harmed in the course of the production at all.)

Why would she live in a cave that is full of feet.

That sounds both crowded and impractical.

Why would Americans even live in caves like this?

Blake T · July 2011

Oh I was at a pub last night and we were talking about popcorn.

A friend remarked she only used the microwave stuff and I said it was pretty easy to make on the stove with a pot.

She said she tried that once but popcorn went everywhere.

I remarked that putting the lid on stops the problem.

She was astonished.

Ohh.... Ohh dear, I'm so sorry.

I didn't know.
