  8. Started shifting from homebrewing to getting into cocktails. Built up my bar a bit ahead of this pandemic so been having fun learning new cocktails, using the Death & Co. book as my guide. Have to say, the Oaxaca Old Fashioned is my jam. Highly recommend. Otherwise, on hotter days, we slam Ranch Waters using Desert Door Sotol.
  9. Haven't posted in here in a bit. Been busy cooking like crazy during the pandemic and expanding my skill set. Read the Noma book on fermentation so made some kraut and kimchi. Working on black garlic and looking to dive into vinegars and garum. But I was gifted some pork trotters at the farmers market so had to make some tonkotsu ramen. Luckily I had most everything required for it in stock to go all in on it. See hand saw? Yeah, 4 of these legs had to be cut up. My jerking arm is still sore. But anyways, boiled these for 20 hours with garlic, mushrooms, leeks, ginger, onion, chicken bones, some pork belly until the broth was thick and milky (heh). Didn't have noodles so decided to make some. Never made pasta but thought I'd give it a shot. They actually turned out better than expected and ready to make more for stir frys. I had some more pork belly so made pork chashu Marinated some eggs in the left over chashu liquid, threw some mushrooms, kimchi, green onion, garlic, and bok choy and came out with this: Overall very happy with it. Other shit I've made lately: Cheeze-its, cause why the fuck not? Jerk chicken with coconut rice and black beans Pork, sage, and broccoli rabe pasta Pork tenderloin wrapped in ham and stuffed with kale, pecans, garlic and rosemary

  15. I'm an atheist, but the deadly sins of this world have taken over within our leadership. All we are left with is a plague.
  16. You are right. My reaction was more a carry over of that article you quoted, juxtaposed against your comment from Anastasis from last night.
  17. I think we would have worked with other nations to make sure we have working tests, shared knowledge and other resources. I think we would have had a singular response to gathering the necessary resources, rather than the thunderdome mentality the states are faced with. I think we would have had a singular and cohesive message to the populace earlier, rather than the hoax conspiracy bull shit. All of which would have had materialized into a different, improved scenario than we currently are faced with.
  18. Love that dumb fuck just standing beside the podium. The reporters need to keep directing their questions to anyone but him.
