Salt meats the night before you cook them. Especially tougher cuts, but salt is good for all cuts.

Browning ground beef really means getting a sear on part of it, not just making it not pink. And split it into batches so that you don’t have all the water coming out and boiling the meat instead of searing it.

When baking, weigh ingredients. Most of cooking is art; baking is science.

It’s got a much thicker texture than your standard yogurt. There’s a fair amount of variation in Greek yogurts. Fage is probably the thickest and iirc a little grainy.

Thank you, good to have reassurance. I have it in a miso honey garlic marinade right now which I think will help. Another possibility which I often use for the tail end bits is a panang curry.

I’ve tried Soylent, Huel, and Jimmy Joy. Each has their own advantages and disadvantages. Soylent has a very smooth texture but not too many flavors, Huel and JJ have great flavor variety but a more grainy texture. Huel (and I think JJ now too) have hot meals which are pretty good and a nice change of pace from cold drinks.

I use them partly for convenience and partly because they have a good amount of fiber which I sometimes don’t get enough of. I don’t really have the self discipline or the willingness to eat the same thing 3x/day in order to put exactly X number of calories in me so I can lose weight.

You really have to google your disposal service. It is by no means uniform across the country or even your state, but rather it depends on what kind of facilities your local disposal service has. For instance I moved from one county to another, and discovered I was not allowed to put paper milk cartons in the recycle bin. County A’s disposal company could recycle them, county B’s couldn’t.

There’s a restaurant in Florida that serves fruit bat. Not sure if it’s still around but it can be googled.

I’ve had this pan for about a year and really like it. I do tend to turn up the heat pretty high (though never the max) and so far so good. I also run stuff through the dishwasher which is often a no-no with nonstick and there are a few spots on the underside but the inside is fine.

Rolling up on my 10th year (September). There are some subs where I haven’t been able to find an equivalent community anywhere else, so I have an RSS feed pulling in posts from those places, but Lemmy and Tildes are covering the bulk of it for me.
