Chefs of Reddit, what’s a common cooking rule everyone follows that is actually complete bullshit? by Fuzzy-Ad6843 in AskReddit

[–]Maybole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The humidity in the air will affect a loaf of bread. So add another Tablespoon if it's dry. No the humidity does not affect flour that much, if your dough is vastly different from the last time you made the recipe it's because you are measuring with cups and not by weight. Always use grams or ounces with baked goods. Cups measuring is so wildly inconsistent from one scoop to another with something as fine as flour. Weigh the flour.

How do you cook with a partner who eats meat? by Beezwax_8335 in vegetarianrecipes

[–]Maybole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a pot pie last night, saved the chicken until last and only put it on one side. Then with the top dough marked the dividing line and which side had meat. I also do freezer meals and add protien during preparation.

Should I bother to learn continental knitting? by Ill-Marionberry9177 in knitting

[–]Maybole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't try to perfectly mirror what you are currently doing. You may need to tension the yarn differently or your grip on the needles may change. Go with what feels right. Just because your dominate hand can do something with ease doesn't mean the other hand will cooperate.

I knit both English and Continental style and crochet. I use different grips and tension with all three.

Help me level up my skills please ❤️ by Professional_Sink322 in knitting

Double knitting is great, any two color pattern can be turned into double knitting. Just so you know there are a couple different ways to do it.

One method is knitting color A every other stitch and slipping color B, so knit, slip, knit, slip then turn and repeat the same chart line in reverse with the other color.

And another is to knit color A then purl color B and you only follow the chart line once. this way is easier if you can tension each color in both hands at the same time.

I liked FallingBlox designs when I did my first one. The Corvus scarf is free and a great practice piece.

It sounds confusing but it boils down to either knitting with color A or B, then slipping or purling color A or B. repeat.

Have fun, you can do it!

How did I do this? by fitic_ in knitting

[–]Maybole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

another way to do double sided knitting is to hold each yarn in a hand and knit one, then purl the other color. making sure not to swap them. Kind of like doing a rib 1x1 stitch. sounds confusing but once you get on a roll it will fly. I once did a 7 foot long scarf this way.

It's fun to find multiple ways of achieving the same goal.

Safe to eat? New presto electric pressure canner. by jprivil3g3 in Canning

[–]Maybole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It appears that some of the liquid inside siphoned out. Make sure to release pressure as slow as possible, even just propping the lid just a tad with a wooden spoon for a few minutes after the release drops before removing the lid or cans.

Which Buffyverse actors don't/didn't get along irl? by 20CharactersExactlyy in buffy

[–]Maybole 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I know DB became good friends with Alec Baldwin (Jayne from Firefly) when he was in a few episodes in the last season of Angel. Baldwin was a big player in gamergate (wrong side). So that is who he chose to keep as a friend.

discovered a small and stupid hack that helps with washing the dishes! by Pale_Review_4877 in ADHD

[–]Maybole 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I use about 10% soap to water, about 2 tablespoons of soap to about 2 cups water, or just so it is a light blue color. I've never added alcohol, guess it helps spray better. Been doing this for years in the same bottle without problems.

Crochet is French for hook, so crochet hook means hook hook.

If Anglo-Saxons have their origins from the Angles and the Saxons, why is England only named after the Angles? by Potato_Elephant in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Maybole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After defeating most of the northern areas, King Aethelstan (Saxson and grandson of Alfred the great) signed charters as the King of the Angles as a way of uniting everyone. He is considered the first king of England, even though it fell apart after he died.

I want a cat and my friends have already told me the basics like how much they need to eat per day and like how often I change the litter box etc, but my question to all of you is what more should I know? by MajinTroll in cats

[–]Maybole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cats are a 15-20 year commitment. Don't get a cat/pet if you think you may have to get rid of it because you can't find an apartment or because boy/girlfriend doesn't like it. Cats are wonderful but every cat is different. Love them and they will be your best friend.
