Mantis42 posted:I always experimented with the ratio since it never quite came out right. It's like 1.5:1 water:rice normally, right? Something like that. I used that Jasmine rice they sell at Walmart. That's the ratio I use yea, if it's all sloppy and goopy I would say less water but I'm guessing you tried that already.

Good rice cookers come with a measuring cup and marker lines inside the bowl. In general, water should be 1 fingertip above the rice (1.5cm, 3/4 inch).

Magna Kaser posted:i learned from urumqi chef landlord. https://i.imgur.com/Z7OsQJN.mp4 I don't have an exact recipe on hand but, stir fry the mutton, add onions and then other vegetables and sautee for a bit. Add rinsed rice and water to cover, reduce heat and wait until cooked. Fine tuning definitely takes a lot of trial and error thought.

Different rice types use different amount of water. A lot of long-grain rices start at 2:1 and the water ratio just increases from there, while the calrose rice I've been enjoying for the last six months or so is pretty much 1:1, just for instance. Definitely can't just assume, fortunately we have the internet so one can check how much the ratio should actually be.

when i lived in shanghai there was an amazing uighur place just down the street and we'd go and just get this massive thing of mutton that was amazingly tender and delicious. other stuff too but i mainly remember that mutton. hope they're doing well these days... edit: looking on baidu street view it seems to have been replaced  i also seem to have missed weed chat but when i was there i somehow found some other uighur folks who i would text and meet up with to exchange cash for pretty good hash which i would then either smoke and get very paranoid or just eat one of the dumber thing i ever did was to make this trade while walking down Yan'an Dong Lu (in Jing'an district) in front of a police station and i fumbled the cash. hah...

Not sure why it's $35, I paid like $20 a few years back. It cooks rice perfectly everytime I've used it (a whole loving lot).

The best rice cooker I ever had was some $5 junk a friend gifted me as a joke housewarming gift. It was basically a plastic bucket with a lid but the rice was perfect every single time, as if imbued with a magic that only the roadside Kentucky flea market he bought it in can provide. So idk how far you are from i-65 but get driving pal, the BPA laced rice of your dreams awaits...

Do yourself a favour and get a proper aluminum inner surface instead of non-stick so you can actually clean the thing if / when a batch sticks.

I once cooked orzo in my rice cooker and it turned out pretty darn okay. Just needed to fluff it. I've also tried alphabet pasta in there, that turned into a sticky mess but I definitely got the water level wrong. I have one of those old lovely rice cookers with a magnetic switch, a single metal bowl and glass lid and no fancy presets or anything just an on off switch. Been using it for over a decade. Done rice mixed with meat, rice cooked in broth, rice cooked in fatty broth, rice cooked with fatty mince, etc. But what you really want is a good claypot so you can make yourself some claypot rice in the winter. Don't feel the need to stick to the usual mushroom and chicken / Chinese sausage mix, try it with anything. You can do it over any old burner just fine.

I've been trying to replicate the beef noodle soup I've eaten there but not getting very close. This one was the last I tried: https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2014/01/taiwan-eats-taiwanese-beef-noodle-soup-recipe.html Besides not getting exactly the right flavor, the noodles were all wrong too. I just can't find anything in Europe with the same texture that all the Taiwanese ones seem to have. Any ideas?

I'm assuming it's the lack of gutter oil. I'm not shitposting, the difference in flavour has to be at least partially due to the less polluted produce.

Rice is just empty calories and has no flavor. Sorry, this sounds very like "the gutter oil is umami and therefore a hot food. The rice balances the heat of the umami" I fell like its not high culinary expertise to add poo poo tonnes of (preservative) salt and then dial back with potato/bread/pasta in a dish to bulk it out for peasants. v0v I'm not Gordon Ramsey, i couldn't comment

Motherfuckers definitely knew. The guys at the top tried to have cutouts to feign ignorance that much is clear. Unless the only due diligence was taking a CCP government tour there is no way you didn't know even back in 2016 from non concentration camp news.  Playing the engagement card. This is gonna be fun with such a dysfunctional season and thirsty people hunting for news.quote:"Shutting it down was probably the smartest thing to do," he said. "But you can clearly understand from the NBA's point of view why they wouldn't want to make an announcement: Then you're just rubbing China's nose in it. What would you say, 'We're leaving because of human rights concerns?' That's worse than Morey's tweet." NBA was never going to get back in. Trying to hide involvement made it worse. By announcing it you can at least pretend you have the high ground. As dumb as it is the cover up is more likely seen worse than the crime.

You assume they still have a connection to humanity. They couldn't read the room to save their lives. Even  would tell them to cut their losses. The moment Morey made his tweet it was all over.

10 years? Time line is quite accelerated if we are going for "History repeats". We have had pogroms for years. Purging of opposition within the CCP and centralisation of power under one man. Didn't do the whole pit one faction against another Hitler did. Annexation of Austria (HK) Phoney war in SCS. Appeasement is coming to an end. False economy is starting to show in a big way paired with massive depression. Suppression of academics. Science getting suppressed by Chinese voodoo. Parts of the UN is getting shaky. Increasing colonisation. Run away Nationalism. We are missing: Suspension of trade. Full break down of diplomatic ties. Military action and blockade. 2020 gonna look like cake if the CCP doesn't back off. Congrats to the people who wanted a multi polar world, happy great power struggles. This article is 3 weeks ago but it's pretty telling. Back when all those countries signed for China that farcical letter to the HRC? https://chinamediaproject.org/2020/07/09/chinas-silent-axis-on-human-rights/ quote:Some have referred to the countries supporting the pro-China statement at the Human Rights Council as an “Axis of Shame.” But outside the HRC statement, the countries comprising this “axis” seem to have said nothing themselves, and their media seem to have reported nothing, about Hong Kong and the national security law. The only country that seems to have actively spoken out on its own in support of Hong Kong’s national security law, and against tying it to the issue of human rights, is Russia, which did not sign the June 30 statement from Cuba. As Russia’s TASS news agency reported, Gennady Gatilov, Russia’s permanent representative to the United Nations in Geneva, called the HRC discussion “biased and politicized.” But this statement was made through Gatilov’s Twitter account. The tl:dr is China $$$ support wasn't follow-up from those countries with media etc. They took China's $$$ and did the absolute minimum.

They rely on China for imports but at the same time they've always maintained their distance politically and militarily. Almost as soon as the war on the peninsula was over Kim Il Sung started (correctly) viewing Mao and the CCP as threats to his independence.
