That’s so much vanilla.

Fun fact, Vanilla extract is 35% alcohol.

Someone should sell vanilla with those liquid dropper caps. All the ones I've bought pour out too easily.

Mu Zeta posted:Someone should sell vanilla with those liquid dropper caps. All the ones I've bought pour out too easily. That's cause you should use a lot of it. Measure it over your mixing bowl and make sure some extra splashes in. If real extract is too spendy for you, get artificial. Vanillan is vanillan, and in taste tests for bake goods no one can tell the difference. edit: To explain more: I've experimented with different kinds of vanilla beans in creme brulee and I'm convinced it makes a difference there, but that's also using the beans and not extract. I prefer Mexican vanilla there. And it could all be in my head. But with vanilla, you have the vanillan plus a couple dozen other flavor compounds. Artificial vanilla extract only gives you the vanillan, but those other compounds are lost in most baked goods. Plus vanilla is front and center in creme brulee whereas it's just a supporting flavor in most baked goods. Flash Gordon Ramsay has a new favorite as of 20:24 on Apr 28, 2020 |

My mom bought me some 12 oz thing of madagascar extract that I think costs like $30 so I'm going to be stingey as a motherfucker with it. But yeah when I run out I'll buy the fake stuff. I only use it for pancakes and I'm already using artificial sweeteners anyway. Mu Zeta has a new favorite as of 21:38 on Apr 28, 2020 |

Sounds like the thing to do is cut the good pure vanilla with the generic artificial vanilla extract.

fyallm posted:Hummmm, I have no clue. Dammit, now I have to do research on carpenter ants. Capture a live one in a clear container and take to Google with "ants in X state" and start comparing pictures. Ant appearances vary by location. If it is carpenter ants it's not a huge deal. They work slowly and treatment for mine was easy. I spray twice a year around the perimeter of my home with Taurus SC and it kills them (and a billion other types of bugs).

From way back, have you got yours in yet? I picked it up as well, and like, it should have shipped a month ago or so? Yeah, Hong Kong and Coronavirus and all, but like, I'd think it'd be here by now if it did ship, but I don't seem to have ever got a shipping email. Or any other sort of status update. Nor for the Neoncity Cruise vinyl I bought a couple of weeks before that one either, now I look back through my email.

My cassette reissue got a shipping notification, but it's sitting held up in post per tracking. We haven't gotten a shipping notification for the vinyl copy just yet, but with 'rona, and us customs being absolute shite, i'd be expecting to wait a decent while.

Vanillan is vanillan, and in taste tests for bake goods no one can tell the difference. Clear vanilla is the flavor of store birthday cake, apparently, and when I've used it the assessment seemed accurate. Another good creme is just some cardamom seeds. I did one with a little black garlic and some cardamom and people were losing their poo poo over it. Pick posted:I not only demand real vanilla, I demand real cinnamon, which most people don't even realize they don't have or buy. Is that the one with the least coumarin/most layers in the barky spiral? I hope so 'cuz that's what I got on the innernetz' recommendation. Recently bought Stranded Deep for PS4, a survival game that has sharks which brings on the 'gently caress the ocean' vibe really strong but at least doesn't have the galloping horrible cannibals of The Forest. Also, bokashi grain from a brewery in San Diego to hopefully be able to compost in small space/5 gallon buckets so I can have fresh veg with less waste and improve my soil. Like a lot of other people I've fallen in love with gardening (again for me) and I now have all the radish varieties popping up all over, lettuce, peppers and tomatoes, etc.

Please don’t force good vanilla to make your food worse. That defeats the purpose, and is a much bigger waste than being heavy handed with it. Using the right amount of cheap vanilla will be better than good vanilla used sparingly. Life is short. Revel in your fancy vanilla.

Seriously. I realized I should stop looking at what people are doing online because some people are willing to put more time and effort into it than I am capable of while remaining chill / employed and i get jealous. Oh, I bought that too. Actually I was kinda worried my Switch would be a waste of money before I bought these 3 games very recently: 1) Animal Crossing 2) Diablo 3 3) Streets of Rage 4 SoR 4 is awesome and made me realize how much I missed SoR 2 from my childhood. Diablo 3 is a better version of the PC game and I've already sunk a zillion hours into it. Animal Crossing is Animal Crossing.

It would be so cool if I could go to the store - "Hello, one Nintendo Switch please." clerk - "Here you go." In the meantime I guess I'll try the DS version of AC.
