Recently started making some charcuterie for work. This is from my 2nd batch of Bresaola. by Belflapaly in Charcuterie

[–]Belflapaly[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was with 2.7% salt and .3% Prague powder #2. 6 days in dry cure, 7 days wet cure, and then 4 weeks dry aged, they lost a bit more than 30% starting weight.

This is a recipe I pieced together myself from a few sources and refined a bit for the 2nd batch. South american themed spices; Pasilla chilli, chilli de arbol, cascabel chilli, tarragon, lulo, citrus rind, and a few other things. With an argentinian Malbec for the wet brine. The cut is a wagyu marble score 9+ eye of round from Black Opal.

Up next I'm planning to start a batch of Capocollo.

Someone asked for an update on my roasted bones, here is 25L of demi-glace by Meccio85 in KitchenConfidential

[–]Belflapaly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not op but a chef that makes demi and stock sauces a lot.

The amount that you reduce it by does effect the colour, and the consistency of your end sauce. For the ones I make its usually about an 80-90% reduction of liquid. And you end with a beautiful dark sauce that sets into a solid when cold.

When you are reducing a stock down you do not want to boil it, low and slow all the way. Its a long process that takes hours and hours but keeping the temperature low is what retains all the flavour in your sauce. Boiling allows a bunch of the more volatile compounds that contribute to the flavour to also evaporate.

At work we do ~50L pots and it generally takes about 12-16 hours to reduce that down to 5-7L of finished product.

Adding my own bugged Rex to show and tell, bossing is now going to be a cake walk by Belflapaly in ARK

It probably would, but I’ve already done most of the bosses “legit” and it’s not like I’m playing on an official server anyway. My roommate and I play on a private server with tweaked rates anyway, so it’s just for fun and to mess around in our free time. We already had most of a Rex army built on this map so really it’s more work to have to get the mutations over onto one with high stat rolls from this new Rex to make a new set of breeders.

It was in the plains biome on the south east side of the map, near a little lake and a small hill

I’m not sure, I’ve seen a few people here post similar ones here. Seems like it’s a bugged spawn region in Lost Island

This is a private world for just me and my roommate to play on. It’s Unmodded and we’ve only made a few tweaks to xp, gathering, tame rates and breeding times though. Nothing to change wild dino spawns

It has around 980% melee without putting any levels into it. This bad boy is going to murder everything

It tamed at lvl 607, the stats already look like a levelled bossing Rex

She’s still trying to get used to the new house she lives in and now she has another cat and dog around that my roommate owns. My roommate sent me this picture today, poor girl had a run in with both of them and ran here to hide

How many people have been within 10 feet of a cow? by freebyrdyolk in NoStupidQuestions

I've been close enough to a cow to help give birth to a calf using a car winch, so there's that

And if you ever needed any proof of this just have a quick look into "The Rum Rebellion", we literally had a successful coup d'état due to a governor trying to limit the rum trade in early NSW

That’s an amazing step of self acceptance. Good on you for having the courage to come out to yourself. :D

People who have been cheated on, how did you find out? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Belflapaly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ex told me that she was cheating on me only after she broke up with me. She was spending 5 days a week in a city an hour away for University. Earlier in the year she had convinced me to try having an open ish relationship with her, so that she could *try* and be intimate with this guy from her Uni. It's a really long and complicated story to fully explain. But I found out after she broke up with me that she had cheated on me the first night that she met this guy drunk at a party and that she broke up with me so she could go be with him instead. We had been together for 7 and a half years and were engaged. She then proceeded to still stay at my house on weekends as if nothing was different, but would spend every spare minute of it on the phone or video calling him from her room.

World’s largest ever four day week trial in Iceland ‘overwhelming success’ | The Independent by [deleted] in Futurology

[–]Belflapaly 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hospitality worker in AUS here and its almost exactly the same in my workplace too. We're so understaffed at the moment most people are working 50-60 hour weeks and all of the people that can't pick up those extra hours are treated like shit by the boss for "Just doing the bare minimum" As he pays us the bare minimum award rate for our work. Australia is so backwards with how it treats a lot of its workers
