I use the boneless skinless chicken tenders and I flip them once in the middle. They turn out really well and they can pass as healthy!

The best pie filling is oreo cream and chocolate pudding. I am a huge child. Though pizza does meet the definition of pie.

Pennywise the Frown posted:Yeah but then you have a gadget that only steam eggs and can't do anything else. Just boil them. Takes <10 minutes. I guess it depends on how many eggs you consume. I put 4 on every day, take a shower, pop them out and have perfect med-hard boiled eggs every time.

I'm trying to eat healthier. Besides their quinoa salad, roast chicken, al pastor salad, and chicken noodle soup, what else is good to grab for a light meal?

DeadFatDuckFat posted:"Healthier" is kinda broad. Are you doing a certain diet? Cutting sodium intake? I meant more foods to grab to take to the office or grab on my lunch break. Healthier as in not fast food quality bad. Something that's decently filling but not completely loaded with empty carbs. Like their wraps tend to be. I dunno, but if I did, I'd probably be buying it already. I've been trying out their soups, and they're pretty good. Moey posted:Frozen veggies, pan roasted.

I went to the Co yesterday and spent $200 on mostly foodstuffs. I live by myself. Bought too much cheese, but I wasn't sure what I wanted to try them all Also bought two of the ready to cook meals. Korea BBQ and the flank steak. Korean BBQ had great flavor, but how too many chunks of hard fat in it. Food court offerings were Hot Dogs and Pizza. Nothing else

I'd need a better shot on the inside of that steak before I judge. The salt grinders are there to adjust the coarseness of the grain. Not all salt is to be completely dissolved before you bite into it.

redreader posted:I also did this because of posts like this one, and it made literally 0 difference vs using a blade grinder. I also can't tell the difference between freshly ground and bought-ground. I still do it anyway because I have all of the stuff, but if I can only get pre-ground it's not a big deal. It depends on the oil content of the coffee, as well as its flavor profile. I like whole bean Jamaican Blue Mountain, and not only can I tell the difference between a blade and a burr grinder, I can tell the difference between a steel burr that's seen alot of use and a ceramic burr. If you're preferred coffee is really dark or has a long drying time before it's roasted, you're less likely to tell the difference since the particulate is much more prominent in the taste.

Propaganda Machine posted:I'm just going to bite, can you elaborate on those differences? I'll try. My "foodie" vocabulary is kind of lacking. For a bean that works really well with a burr grinder, they tend to generate less powder when ground. If it generates alot of powder when ground, then really any kind of coffee grinder will do. For the those that don't, think of it like perparing a clove of garlic. A blade pushes it between blades or a blade and a hard surface and slices it, think of it as slicing a clove of garlic into thick slices. A dull burr grinder (steel burr grinders will eventually dull) is like rolling over a clove of garlic with a rolling pin. A ceramic burr grinder is like pull a clove of garlic on a meat tenderizer and whacking it with another meat tenderizer. It chuckifies it, but they're very rough uneven chunks. If you're using a french press, you want to have the grind be as coarse as you can, so that the french press keeps the coffee grinds out of the coffee. The blades expose a ton of surface area to bean volume, The oils are all released, but the water also fully saturates most of the grains and can add a ton of particulate matter to the coffee. The dull burr has the opposite, where the surface area is low, and less oil ends up in the coffee. The ceramic burr (or a sharp steel bur) grinds them into multi faceted shapes, which have a lot of surface area, but also a more proportional volume. When you add them to a french press, you can much more easily control the oil to particulate ratio by how hot the water is when you add it (I just use water from an electric kettle that's just com down from a violent boil) and how long you let it seep. The other two grinding methods don't really give you that much ability to adjust. ninjoatse.cx fucked around with this message at 02:46 on Mar 20, 2021 |

Alternatively put then in for 8 seconds to make them warm enough to separate with a butter knife, then put in the ingredients for a melt and nuke it to your hearts content. There's hot sandwichs, then there are hot sandwiches.

The number of people in line for the food court when you approach the check out and the number of people in line when you finish checking out is calculated by the formula 4x+1 where x is the number of minutes you've spent in line.
