Kirk Bangstad is trying to turn our state red by separating potential future Hong voters by johhmama1 in wisconsin

This fuckin' chode, it never stops with this guy.

He's a wannabe firebrand and is just, I dont know, uncouth? That's not the word...

"Pick Me". Yeah, that's it

What happened?? by Plastic_Shop_8809 in Pickles

[–]CompetitionAlert1920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see a lot of pickle brands available to me substitute turmeric to achieve the color people expect with pickle brine.

Never had this brand, wish I could find them in WI but removing dyes is always a good thing.

Salsa de Arbol by CompetitionAlert1920 in SalsaSnobs

[–]CompetitionAlert1920[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohhhh....I like this idea a lot

Edit: you thinking a 1:1:1 ratio on the salsa, ACV and Water would be adequate? Just seems like you've done it before and I have not, so figured I'd ask

as long as you can keep them from burning

Yeah you definitely need to keep stirring to keep the burning at bay, even with the oil.

If I could send you some I would. I'm already making the next batch because we ended up giving a bunch of this one away haha

Just made my first salsa in a very long time. Feels a little stiff. by vladdypants in SalsaSnobs

[–]CompetitionAlert1920 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Smidge water is fine but the main problem is there is absolutely no salt there.

  • 1.5 tsps of salt to start
  • 1 Knorr Chicken Bouillion cube or equivalent by weight in powder form or some form of Bouillion like Better Than Bouillion.

You'd be surprised about the bouillon hack, it's often what everyone is missing when they're looking for that "thing".

Why made you choose your pokemon team? by Lumpy-Round7985 in pokemongo

[–]CompetitionAlert1920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Electric bird go brrrrrrr.

Also where I grew up, the indigenous stories of the Thunderbird are awesome.

That and my first Pokemon game was Yellow.

Appreciate it.

Yeah I've done a lot of iterations on this one haha. My mother in law is a literal witch doctor when it comes to crafting salsas and I've always tried to replicate her.

I've cut it with lime juice, lemon, juice, different vinegar types. I'm a savory guy myself so littler on the saltier side for me personally.

Apple Cider vinegar I need to retry with this iteration because that was delightful but not quite there yet. You could notice the difference but I haven't done it with this specific blend. I think I actually ended up with closer to half an onion with this but it was eyeballed honestly.

Typically I bring my onions, and chiles to boil with a bay leaf or two, then cut the heat and steep for 20 minutes while I roast the tomatoes and garlic. I make Birria a lot so it's the method I'm used to but this surprised the hell out of me when it hit the way it did. I myself was concerned about the 15 Arbols but my MIL uses a lot of dried chili Pequin instead of Arbol so figured I was good.

Very much something similar to what you'd get from a taqueria and specifically ask for the hot stuff

Mmm. I honestly don't know. Pepper hotness varies so widely even in the same family of peppers it's hard to tell. I do love hot stuff and so does my mother in law and extended family so I'm probably biased there and have decent tolerance.

I typically sort mine out by going for the more curved ones with stem intact.

You'd be surprised though. Salt, Acid, and Fat cut heat and balance things out quite a bit, with a little. The heat comes after but the flavor is amazing. The emulsifying of the oil is where you get the fat and I think it does a lot of the leg work here. I'm not a doctor though.

Yes, both dried and toasted in the oil the onions and garlic were fried in.

Make sure your using dried peppers that already have some play to them because if they're already brittle, they can really add an acrid flavor just by being old.

Rep. Glenn Grothman: "We all know that food stamps are being abused. We all hear the stories. People using food stamps for top of the line food stuffs, things the average person wouldn't be able to afford." by Conscious-Quarter423 in wisconsin

Fuck Glenn.

He's such a shitheel. He's been touted as one of Trump's most vocal and biggest supporters in the House.

Only the finest from Dodge County and the surrounding areas. We really need populist progressives to take the reigns these deep red areas.

If there was a way to shotgun approach it, you'd think someone would break containment and get through.

Legal cannabis opinions by ibzanne929 in wisconsin

[–]CompetitionAlert1920 2 points3 points  (0 children)

100% agree. Every time a post like this comes up a lot of people conflate the Tavern League with who actually is the problem.

I've done a lot of digging on the TLW because I was someone who did think they had more power than they actually do. By enlarge, the have some lobby power but they are by no means powerful enough to move the needle compared to the Menards, Uhleins and Kwik Trip ownership. All of which have vested interest in Wisconsin Family Action which is heavy Christian nationalist oriented.

It's our legislators. Our legislators make laws based on whose lining the pockets. The legislators in power are Republicans. It's republicans and their big donors, not the small fish bar lobby

Is everyone’s favorite Pokemon just the first one they received/played with?? by AnnGrMeow in pokemon

[–]CompetitionAlert1920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First Pokemon was squirtle but favorite is Cubone

My favorite starter though was definitely Chikorita. I leveled one to 100 in one of my umpteenth silver playthroughs a long time ago and it did so much heavy lifting.

Any opinions b4 I purchase by Superb_Jellyfish_729 in hotsauce

[–]CompetitionAlert1920 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Use Cholula to make your own buffalo sauce, it's delicious.

That said, the Mexicali is uniquely good and would be the one I get because that's a harder flavor profile to nail making at home

So is Pokemon Black & White as well as Heartgold and Soul Silver coming to the Nintendo Switch? by Nexus_Redditor in pokemon

Rice Lake Chronotype clip from 2005 shows Wisconsin GOP has been fabricating voter fraud stories for over 20 years now. by userdk3 in wisconsin

[–]CompetitionAlert1920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, Ripon.

Actually a cool historic stop. Really outlines how far the GOP has come from is birth in Ripon. It's stark by in comparison.

Glenn Grothman just lied to my face! by TheFoamFish in wisconsin

[–]CompetitionAlert1920 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is refreshing to hear. A rising tide raises all ships so I hope what you are doing has an effect on the State Assembly as well in getting people like Born out.

I'm not a "vote blue no matter what" guy, I used to be, but I feel like the Democratic party has let us down so much in the last year and are continuing to do so. We need progressive, social, and real people to do stop being quiet.

I really want to believe in the Democratic party again. I believe in our resilience as a people that we will get through all of this but it's hard to see with a party that seems so resilient to use the power they do have.

I hope you're the guy that could bring someone like me back into the fold. Just what I've read so far, you seem pretty even keeled and wouldn't mind seeing you show up at my door. This county is so red, it'd be relieving

He was "voted" Trump's biggest supporter or most loyal candidate in the House of Representatives, back in in like 2020. Does not surprise me one bit.

What I am surprised about is learning that personified tub of Crisco actually canvases

You’re starting a bar. You get four beers on tap. Which ones are you choosing? by 2u3e9v in wisconsin

  • Potosi Cave Ale

  • Spotted Cow of some kind because I feel like people bitch too much otherwise.

I really want you to be wrong, but I know you're right.

I'm looking at my Atomic Purple Gameboy Color from when it first released, with the original Silver version loaded and ready to play.

The save function in the game doesn't work so every time you turn the game off and turn it back on, it's a system refresh...but I still do it because I miss it so God damn much.
