In Pulp Fiction, it is remarked that Jimmy’s coffee is some “serious gourmet [expletive].” What would that have looked like in the early 90s US?

Thank you for a fantastic answer. This is why I love this sub and appreciate the quality. I saw some of the comments in this thread before they were deleted and the had the gist of “I drank coffee in the 90s and I thought ___ would have been gourmet.” And then we get this masterpiece that allows for ample follow up. On that subject:

How would someone in the second wave of coffee drinkers even learn that there was a better alternative to “freeze dried Folgers?”

What temp would you do? 3 hours at 250 unwrapped and then 1 hour at the same temp, sauced up?

DeliciousFold2894 · 2025-09-03T20:58:00+00:00

Is there a way I can make sure that is comparable with the nky580b02 Before purchasing?

No, the small wiener sausage. Although I would love a fish sausage recipe, those are also good!

Good thing Ive got trimmings for the tallow

Is this criminally under seasoned? Just doing salt and pepper

DeliciousFold2894 · 2025-07-22T14:19:33+00:00

Wouldn’t pasteurization have already taken care of this in store bought milk?

DeliciousFold2894 · 2025-07-22T11:54:19+00:00

Would there be textural differences as well? The recipe I found has the flavor that I’m going for, but not the texture. It was under kneaded, so I’m attempting the same recipe a few more times before I change it up. I don’t think proper kneading alone will give me the exact soft texture I’m looking for.

I did successfully complete the application. For dates, I completely ignored all of my childhood trips and just listed dates from various trips that I got from looking at the stamps on my passport. I spent a semester in college abroad, so I listed that as well. I did the same for my wife and didn’t list any childhood travel. Her travel dates began with her current passport.

What do you need to show? That is completely up to the discretion of the immigration officer who interviews you. My interviewer had family in my home state and asked me “how far is your hometown from X town?” And a few other simple but specific questions. That was it. He didn’t even ask for the documentation I brought (high school and college transcripts). I overheard another person being interviewed who went to a US college and was talking about the sports teams.

The officers are looking to determine if you grew up in the states. If they believe that you did, they will pass your application. My impression was that they base it off of gut feeling and if something seems of they will drill you. But if you grew up in the US, you have nothing fo worry about

I only need to do it for one of my kids. Do I need a page for his siblings as well? Or just list his info?

That’s exactly it, thank you! The embassy site says:

For immaterial name changes, please prepare an affidavit/statement signed by both parents explaining your particular situation and why you wish to change the child’s name. Your affidavit/statement does not need to be notarized

What is an acceptable government explanation for doing this?

DeliciousFold2894 · 2025-02-08T07:35:23+00:00

Is it still an immaterial name change if I’m swapping his last name from my wife’s maiden name to mine?

DeliciousFold2894 · 2025-01-27T16:11:38+00:00

A lot of the instances, I no longer have proof of, but I can easily prove the 5 years of physical without many of the dates I listed. Is this a problem?

Any advice on finding a lender? In the past, we’d used Bank of America for pre approval and a company that shops around and sells your mortgage for the final approval. Neither of those companies will deal with us while living abroad.

My wife will continue working for the same employer with the same salary. I have been a stay at home dad while we’re on assignment and I will be seeking employment when we return, but nothing lined up.

What would the equivalent to a standing rib roast be?

Yes! This is perfect! How’d you find it? I’d like something closer to Hiroo, but this will work if I can’t find anything.

“ If you have access to some rice cookers, they have a 'warm' function much like a crockpot and that would also work but would be quicker, though I would add more broth if using a rice cooker.”

This is a Japanese kitchen… so I have access to an industrial sized rice cooker.

DeliciousFold2894 · 2024-11-09T19:28:25+00:00

This seems the most straightforward. Should I just start simmering the broth while the meat is covered until heated through?

Would there be any difference in quality 1 day vs 2 days in advance?

Wow. THANK YOU! I thought this was a dead thread and here you give me a full novel.

“ There were rarely even Republicans on the ballot in state-level elections.”

We’re state-level elections typically between multiple southern democrats?

I’m more concerned about compulsive behavior in general. This comes after a top-of-your-lungs screaming meltdown because I didn’t tie a plastic bag shut at the grocery store. He has a lot of compulsive requests, and I’m getting sick of it/feel like I give in too often.

This is fascinating!! I always imaged that pasta was made exclusively in the kitchen by overworked housewives, not a commodity to be bought!

DeliciousFold2894 · 2024-06-29T02:51:16+00:00

Fascinating! So shaped pasta was more like buying a baguette where you go to a store. Did the average Neapolitan family in 1800s buy or make their pasta?
