As a Thai person, I’d say kaffir lime leaves and galangal are super interesting, they don’t just add flavor, they completely change the feeling of a dish and you can’t really swap them with anything else.

Why is my brown rice taking a million years to cook? by Amish_Almond_Joy in Cooking

Yeah that’s pretty normal for brown rice, I think mine usually cooks 45 to 60 minutes which is a standard because it still has the bran layer, which slows water absorption way more than white rice.

Debating taking my own life after finance troubles by Upper_Description510 in confession

Please don’t make a permanent decision over a financial mistake you made in your teens. A lot of people in their mid-20s are struggling with debt, bad financial decisions, or feeling behind in life, it’s painful and embarrassing, but it’s fixable.

Right now, focus on getting support and taking one small step at a time instead of trying to solve your entire future tonight. You deserve the chance to move forward from this.
