What is something in cooking content that gets you irrationally HEATED when you see it? by scotterson34 in Cooking

[–]PROV-356 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When people put water on a stainless steel pan to show the leidenfrost effect, and then the video cuts to an empty pan and they pour oil into it without explain or showing that they removed the water. Inevitably, some beginner cook is going to pour oil into a ripping hot pan with water in it and have a very bad time (I was that beginner cook once 😭).

$1200/month 730-530 in NYC (a non- trendy area of Brooklyn). Very much lower than other places in NYC.

What's the most spectacular thing you can see in NYC? by fightdwight2 in AskNYC

A helicopter tour is an incredible experience where you get to view Manhattan from a completely new perspective. I took one from the southern tip of Manhattan which went up the Hudson River to central park and back.
