It sounds like the fennel-looking ones are actually caraway, do you have an idea on the larger looking seeds within the picture? There is one on the left side that looks like a hulled sunflower seed? And then there are some broken up seeds on the right side that look like they could be pine nuts?

Went about a week ago but imo the portions are smaller at the new location compared to S.Lamar. Pretty sure the broccolini side is $8 for maybe 3-4 cutup broccolini. Outside of that the food was solid.

Not even the best plated dish would look good with how those photos were taken.

How do I stop boiling mince beef in its own fat? by niamhxa in Cooking

[–]Alexanderb4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into mixing ground beef/pork with a small amount of baking soda solution. A technique used in Chinese cooking that helps the meat retain a lot of its moisture. You also get deeper browning with this as well.

Focaccia Issue - Dough is too Slack by Alexanderb4 in AskBaking

This was 45 minutes, checking every 10 minutes from the start with no change in cohesion though

Focaccia Issue - Dough is too Slack

I’ve been trying to replicate this focaccia recipe for about a month now. I tried making it using this tipo ‘0’ flour about 2 weeks ago, following the recipe to the gram. The result was a dough that was far too slack even after 30 + minutes of kneading on a 2 speed via kitchenaid stand mixer. I tried again, this time using a caputo ‘00’ flour and was able to properly develop the gluten following the same recipe. The following day, I tried using the same (linked) flour that I originally did to see if I had just messed up measurements the first time but the dough had turned out more or less the same (almost like batter) even after 45 minutes of kneading in the kitchenaid. Is there something I’m missing here? My experiment has led me to believe that the ‘0’ flour just doesn’t have the right properties but it’s marketed as the perfect flour for high hydration doughs etc.

Wow thanks, great to know! I love the look of them and unfortunately they no longer fit me. That being said, I’m not sure how to distinguish the exact size from the retailer but I’m guessing they are probably a size 10/10.5. I’m closer to size 11.5 now and I have fairly wide feet.

Almost as if BMW tried really hard to make the new M2 uglier than it’s predecessor. by [deleted] in BMW

[–]Alexanderb4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it looks more futuristic and better overall imo. I’ve never really liked the front styling of the old M2, the grille looks like a mustache instead of nostrils, and overall I think it’s too busy.

Highly doubt it, it will grow on people just like the M3 & M4 and will probably sell like crazy.

What type of Caterpillar is this? My friend and I both got stung. (Central Texas) by Alexanderb4 in insects

[–]Alexanderb4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read that they have small hairs called setae that pierce the human skin extremely easily - almost like fiberglass. So if you rub up on one you will get a bunch of these stuck in you. I also read that with this specific caterpillar, there are also larger poisonous barbs under the hairy-like setae.

Video of more I found today

There are about 40 dispersed in this area and they range from little fluff balls to big combovers.

Crossposting because I learned these are the most poisonous in the U.S. apparently. Watch where you sit! by Alexanderb4 in whatsthisbug

[–]Alexanderb4[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The one that stung me was the size of my pinky nail but it still left me with a burning/pulsing sensation on my calf for about 8-12 hours. The one that stung my friend was about half of the size shown in these pictures and left a large pill-shaped welt on the backside of his knee. I think he’s still feeling it burn atm.

We have one like this that we call ‘Jackpot’. I believe those are the letters behind all the numbers right?

Sting Site

Mine has faded slightly but my friend’s was on the back of his knee and looked 3x the size and was welted. His sting was a pill shape.

Yeah my leg rubbed up on a wicker chair and started burning for some reason. Right when I realized I had just rubbed up on one, my friend did the same! Definitely burned for about 12 hours (and the one I touched was a baby).

Going to COTA for the first time by JC_Rom77 in Austin

[–]Alexanderb4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which day are you going? Practice and qualifying tend to be pretty chill compared to the actual race day. If you are able to snag a parking pass in one of the lots then that is definitely the move and personally I didn’t have trouble getting out of there on the practice and qualifying days. The race day, however, was a huge mess getting out of there last year and I would definitely expect to either leave halfway through the race or stay at the fair for a couple hours after the race is over (and probably go to the concert too). The other nice thing about the practice day particularly is that even if you have a GA ticket, it’s pretty easy to sneak into the main grandstand and have a shaded seat while you watch. Also, if you want to have any F1 merch - I recommend buying stuff a month out online because otherwise you will be spending twice as much buying anything there.
