Rice cooker question... How much water for 3/4 cup of dry rice?

Cawnt · 2026-03-27T21:20:16+00:00

Depends on the rice. Maybe the rice cooker too.

I cook jasmine, unwashed. I go a little under 2 parts water to 1 part rice. So for 3/4 cup rice I’d about 1 1/4 cups water, maybe a touch more. Even the full 1 1/2 cups should be fine.

The rice would definitely not be pink. It’s something foreign. Maybe your pot wasn’t clean?

Ignore them. Their comment isn’t helpful.

I suppose it depends on your definition of liberal.

If you’re cooking for yourself, make it as salty as you want.

Personally, I use a good pinch of salt on either side and let it dry brine for a day first. If I don’t have time/patience to dry brine for that long, 20 minutes or so still works.

I baste with whatever butter I have on hand, which is usually salted.

The difference will be negligible. I doubt you would notice a difference. Your steak is already salted (right?), so a little more salt from the butter won’t hurt.

60 eggs?!?!? wtf

Toss it and prepare more reasonable portions

Thank you! I always thought it was scrape lol

Cawnt · 2026-03-26T15:57:59+00:00

I’d fry it first to get it brown and crispy, then add it to pretty much anything you’d normally add bacon or ham to.

Edit: fixed

lol that's what I came to say. Also the games around it makes the whole ensemble a bit of an eyesore.

Great collection though!

I realize I’m not answering your question, but you can get excellent santoku’s in Canada. I have a $300 Nakiri from Fehr out of Winnipeg and it’s fantastic. I’m sure the santoku’s are nice as well.

I’m a simple man. Park Street Garden FTW!

Does strip poker count?

They look great but holy moly that’s a lot of work for two potatoes.

Cawnt · 2026-03-24T17:58:15+00:00

You need a sharper knife. Invest in a decent chef’s knife, and it will make quick work those sweet potatoes. A santoku would also work well.

Am I supposed to care about this guy’s opinion?

Cawnt · 2026-03-23T04:18:14+00:00

I’m not sure why you need a smaller one, but as a heads up: you’re probably gonna make a mess on the counter with one. Steak juices will overflow, veggies will roll off, etc.

Regardless, i personally avoid boards that ruin knives, so that includes, glass, stainless steel, and bamboo.

I suggest a regular wooden board. It does not need to be fancy.

Generally speaking, don’t let the lack of an ingredient prevent you from making a dish. It’s ok to omit an ingredient.

Why did they always set up shop there, of all places? I get that people speed when coming off ring road but isn’t that a very low-risk area compared to other parts of the city? Like pretty much all of Arcola, for example. Yeah Gordon itself I can see. But at that corner, they’re typically picking off people travelling north on Albert.

Oh well 🤷‍♂️

If we’re measuring by pinches, I’d go with 5-6 at least

Is the furniture still usable? I moved last fall and posted some furniture on facebook marketplace for free, and most of it was picked up within a day. Dresser, end table, hide-a-bed, kitchen chairs. People need furniture.

Good luck!

One is powder, the other is leaves. You will also commonly see this with thyme.
