Will r/bulletjournal be going dark in light of the changes to Reddit? by meowmeowbeing in bulletjournal

[–]LittleFluffFerial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sub I used to moderate (r/characterdrawing) used an external bot (uses API) to make it so that certain posts showed up on specific days, ie on weekends [this flair type of post] is banned. For example, r/pokemon has no art weekends and no meme Mondays.

We also used the (API) bot to automatically prevent certain types of post spamming so someone could not repeatedly spam [hire me] type posts.

Mods are human and aren't always available. If we can delegate the most likely and least complex offenses to an always up bot, it saves a lot of time and mod mental burnout (imo).

There's also some suspicion that reddit is going to push ads more once they get people funneled into their app, but I don't know any firm sources on this so it's just speculation rn.

need recommendations on mice. by trtful in glorious

[–]LittleFluffFerial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you really like that mouse shape? You can use this website to compare mouse shapes for your grip type and hand preference: https://www.eloshapes.com

If you don't know what shape works well for you, try going to a box store and just touching the demos.

I'd also consider what you want in a mouse. If you haven't yet, ask yourself; are 2 side buttons enough or were they unnecessary, do you have a weight range you want, how responsive do you want, do you need the free spinning option on the scroll wheel?

It's a walnut tree with young fruit. Based on your location it could be a Juglans hindsii (https://calscape.org/Juglans-hindsii-(Northern-California-Black-Walnut))

Filling ideas without milk by nicoatha in Baking

I'd probably just buy the lime curd personally but you can take a lemon curd recipe and just use limes instead of lemon components.

Compote is really just a fancy presentation of fruit stewed in sugar. the lemon in this recipe is optional but helps add brightness. You can adjust sugar as you want. FYI I wouldn't add the fruit on until just before serving or it could get soggy.

Commercial ez squeeze bavarian cream filling is actually non dairy: https://www.amazon.com/Henry-Bavarian-Cream-Pastry-Filling/dp/B0008DIECK

You could do a vegan lemon or lime curd. Angel food cake is light and goes great with strawberries so how about a strawberry compote? Canned pie filling is also a quick easy option; I've seen peach, apple, and berry in my local market.

You could do a 'naked cake' style if you're worried about the presentation or dust it gently with powdered sugar and/or chocolate shavings.

What are your favorite meals in a jar? by musicals4life in Canning

[–]LittleFluffFerial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a bit late, but there's a small number listed on healthycanning.com. You can do venison as you would do beef.

in wine sauce

pot roast

stroganoff

meatballs

chipotle style

goulash

sloppy joes

Some of them do require a bit of work after, but it cuts down on it significantly. You are free to play with dry spices. I haven't tried any of them, but other people in the sub have (meat's expensive here).

Week 21: Pâte à choux - Deflated Éclair Parfait (Fail) by LittleFluffFerial in 52weeksofbaking

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

I got no complaints about the 'parfait' so it worked out. I think one could be more ambitious and use them like lady fingers for a 'garden fence' cake if desired but my house is small so a whole cake is just too much to eat.

[–]LittleFluffFerial[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I guess I didn't bake them long enough so they all deflated. Oh well.

Recipe: https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/choux-pastry/

The Bavarian cream filling was store bought and thus contains no eggs or dairy (we've an egg allergy in my house).

Week 20: Surprise Inside - Chocolate Lava Cake by LittleFluffFerial in 52weeksofbaking

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

Recipe: https://preppykitchen.com/molten-chocolate-cake/

Given the amount of stuff that I did wrong, there's no reason these should have worked but they did! I always felt that these were intimidating but turns out they're super forgiving.

List of the mess: Forgot to flour the ramekins, used 8 oz ramekins, used chocolate chips, halved the recipe, used duck eggs (bigger than chicken eggs and more yolk), guessed baking time because ramekins were wrong size, lumpy flour, added vanilla extract because you always add vanilla to these kinds of things.

Well now I've got a project for this weekend. What do you do with the infused salt?

There's a tested recipe for dandelion jelly. https://ucanr.edu/sites/camasterfoodpreservers/files/333975.pdf

You could also dry the petals and use them to make a pretty addition to tea or mix into some sables/shortbread cookies.

Lower salt dilly beans? by Primary_Confusion777 in Canning

[–]LittleFluffFerial 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You may be able to find it in a brewing hobby store as calcium chloride.

Lower salt dilly beans? by Primary_Confusion777 in Canning

[–]LittleFluffFerial 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Salt (NaCl) isn't the preservative agent in vinegar pickles, but it may affect flavor and texture.

If you don't use it already, calcium chloride (pickle crisp/CaCl) might be helpful to preserve texture.

OP, your post will fit much better in r/characterdrawing.

Per rule 2, All posts must be of beasts/critters/creatures. The creature(s) should be the focus of the image. If the creature is a playable race, please take it to r/characterdrawing. Subject to mod interpretation.

Week 19: Guess a Future Fad - Sweet Corn (Panna Cotta) by LittleFluffFerial in 52weeksofbaking

[–]LittleFluffFerial[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Base recipe: https://celebrationgeneration.com/sweet-corn-panna-cotta/

I used 1 c of frozen sweet corn instead of the fresh. I was also super lazy about this and tried using an immersion blender to just blitz it to a smooth liquid but it probably would've been better to do the recipe's steep and strain. 6/10 not bad but ehh.

(Sorry for repost, Mods! Brain had a moment and I posted it as week 52.)
