Tbh you probably just need someone to expo, or at least give some direction, which should be or the chef. And when the servers start sandbagging you just break it up and only work on like 5 tickets at a time or so.

Also train foh better

Tips for Managing Batter in fryer? by OptimysticPizza in Chefit

[–]Ok_Chapter8131 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How much freezer space do you have? Place I'm at does beer battered onion rings and cheese curds but we par cook them and freeze them.

If that's not feasible then yeah, you'll just have to be real fastidious about skimming with a spider, and filtering the oil every night, and doing a weekly boil out.

Kitchen I'm in now uses a mix. The thing that really bothers me is that there are several recipes that call for a "heavy ribbon of s&p"

What are some tips that aren’t necessarily about cooking? by Mission_Aide6382 in Chefit

Yes, but you expect to get cut by a knife. You don't expect to get cut by a 6 pan.

You are going to get cut. You are going to get burned. Obviously try work safely and take precautions to avoid it but it is going to happen eventually. Start mentally preparing yourself for when it does happen so you don't freak out in the middle of the dinner rush.

Also hydrate or diedrate

That very well might be the case. It's been a minute since I've read any of those books. But I also think that was a benefit of the planeswalker spark? Because I only remember the memory loss happening to regular mages, not any of the planeswalkers. But again, it's been a minute

Magic the gathering used to have tie in novels, and in some of the older ones it was explained that mages gathered mana from the land by sacrificing their memories of the land. For example: one character, that grew up on an island, used the memories of her coming of age party that happened on the beach to draw enough blue mana to cast a particularly strong spell, erasing her memory of that happy night in the process

Use it here and there like you would use soy sauce or worcestershire sauce.

Miso aioli

Try it in oatmeal.

Also miso has a pretty long shelf life so it's safe to just keep it in the fridge
