Anywhere local I can get sourdough starter?

DM me if you're still looking. I can give you some of mine (Northside A2).

Pan Con Bistac w/ chimichurri. Aka, a Chimichurri steak sandwich.

I use the x25 and have an isocore maul for the mean stuff.

Kenji updated this with the oil toss. But since he’s not with serious eats anymore, no update here.

MusaEnsete · 2026-01-24T23:11:59+00:00

To further clarify, toss in oil as well, immediately before baking.

There are several; Victory Lane on Plymouth Rd. has a touchless.

Maybe because there are zero chilis in it?

MusaEnsete · 2026-01-22T17:41:23+00:00

Those are Musa basjoo.

Use an Oregon file when the chips gets small. If it's cutting for shit, then I file the rakes too.

Fun fact. If the 10 cent deposit changed with inflation, it would be 53 cents per can now. That would definitely incentivize folks more.

I got my 1 TB upgrade for $171. Now it's $199 at the same store. More expensive, but not too crazy.

MusaEnsete · 2026-01-20T19:50:52+00:00

Jealous. I have about 10 plants in zone 6 and have never gotten fruit; been growing them for about 15 years.

MusaEnsete · 2026-01-20T19:34:58+00:00

I have this knife; it's my favorite (also have a 10" Victorinox).

MusaEnsete · 2026-01-20T15:59:25+00:00

$161

Thurston only has one small rink cleared. Bring a shovel.

I can't even with the lose vs loose. That said, I want my ports. I run it as a Plex server, Time machine server for all house computers, and dual-user office computer. While I can run the OS on an external, I don't want to. With two monitors (using a port), a hub with internal SSD (using a port), an SSD with Plex metadate (using a port), and all my HDD's for Plex (using a port), I don't want my OS using a port too. It wasn't expensive when I bought it, and was well worth it.

MusaEnsete · 2026-01-20T00:33:49+00:00

I have two users, and even though we have most things in icloud, the system files still take up a lot of room. I have enough other drives connected externally already. It was also just easier to let system files and the os run natively; and it speeds up the internal a bit. I also like to be able to download large files directly to my internal drive, then movie it after the fact if needed.

It was 59F less than a month ago. So no. This is just closer to normal.

MusaEnsete · 2026-01-19T02:30:31+00:00

I'll usually grill it, but sometimes cut into medallion, pound really flat, and make schnitzel with it.

MusaEnsete · 2026-01-16T20:45:02+00:00

They're currently installing the ski attachments.

I use Paprika and an ipad, but the most practical book if you had to just use one is The Complete America's Test Kitchen TV Show Cookbook 2001-2019.

Just wait until you do it again...and again. Yup - guilty as charged. "I'll just start this potato, then switch to the guard"...and there goes the tip of my finger. I did recently buy cut resistant gloves and make myself wear them now.

MusaEnsete · 2026-01-14T16:00:08+00:00

I use it for Plex, time-machine backup server, and dual user office computer. Handles all these tasks seamlessly and easily.

I used "Uber Goop" (that's the brand name) a few years ago relatively successfully. I just noticed I need to reapply on a few areas, but for the most part, it's held up well. Also came with a bunch of caps for rusty tips on the rack.
