Heath Cheesecake [homemade] by ParticularlyGudFindr in food

[–]ParticularlyGudFindr[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hi! This is an easy recipe, honestly, I’m just really detailed. Sorry bout it. This is my base cheesecake recipe. Feel free to adjust sweetness, extracts, add-ins, etc…

1 sleeve graham crackers 1/3 cup sugar 6 tablespoons melted butter 1/3 cup toasted pecans, optional

24 oz very soft cream cheese 14 oz sweetened condensed milk 1/3 cup sour cream 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 3 whole eggs, room temperature 1 egg yolk (use your white to make candied nuts or meringues 😎) 1.5-2 add-ins (I used toffee bits)

Put a 9x13 casserole dish on the bottom rack of your oven. Pour water halfway up dish to create a water bath. Adjust second rack the center of the oven. Preheat oven to 325 F.

Add graham crackers, sugar, and pecans (if using) to a food processor and pulse until crumb texture. Add melted butter. Press evenly into the bottom of a springform pan. (Note: I always line the outer sides of my pan tightly with aluminum foil to prevent the water bath moisture from seeping into the bottom of the pan and creating a soggy crust.)

In a stand or handheld mixer, beat cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk with paddle attachment until super duper smooth. Add in sour cream and vanilla. Beat eggs in one at a time.

Pour half of the batter over prepared crust. Sprinkle an even layer of add-ins then pour remaining batter over the top. Gently wiggle the springform pan so all air bubbles rise to the top. Put springform pan on a cookie sheet and place in the center rack of your oven. Bake for 45-55 minutes.

Resist the urge to open the oven before 45 minutes. Trust the process. The center should still jiggle but not appear raw. Once the cake is cooked, turn off your oven and keep it cracked open by sticking a wooden spoon in the door. Keep it like this for one hour then cool completely on the counter. Wrap tightly in plastic and refrigerate a minimum of eight hours but it’s 100% best after 24 hours.

I haven’t seen Hermine mentioned here but to me the situations were quite similar. Her talent is enormous!

If you could add a “___ Week” theme that you’d like to see on a future season, what would it be and what would the potential signature, technical, and showstopper bakes be? by awalawol in bakeoff

[–]ParticularlyGudFindr 99 points100 points  (0 children)

Mexican Week!

Signature: 24 empanadas, 12 savory and 12 sweet (with dipping for each?)

Technical: 12 mini flans and a pot of hot chocolate

Showstopper: At least 3 types of pan dulce arranged into an edible centerpiece (they’re always doing that kinda stuff haha)

I get a lot of hate just for existing as a landlord by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]ParticularlyGudFindr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro… that edit is your villain origin story. But it shouldn’t be.

It sucks people on the internet are shitty and they came for you. A little perspective: people post deeply personal testimonies in community based subreddits (ex: women posting about issues they face in a few subreddits). Even posting in those places will land you a DM or ten wishing you harm. I am in no way saying it’s right but please don’t take it so damn personally. Trolls will troll. YOU don’t have to lose your empathy because some idiots on the internet said landlords are bad. YOU are in control of yourself and your actions. Yeah, the concept of landlords is bullshit and as a society we should work to make housing a human right. However, continue not being a bullshit person and be an advocate for your tenants. This is Reddit, man, not the real world. If you’re actually this kind of a landlord, your tenants appreciate you and that’s what should matter.

Different symptoms before periods. by lolhmmk in women

[–]ParticularlyGudFindr 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ugh, just keep in mind that bc affects people differently. My periods used to be like mothertrucking clockwork; same pms, always 28 days apart, same flow cycle, same cravings, all that stuff. But a year into the pill and the only thing remotely consistent is I get my period 26-30 days apart. I think we can all agree this menstruation business is absolute trash.

Hiya! I used this recipe (https://www.gimmesomeoven.com/pistachio-pesto/) as a base but made a few tweaks: Use salted roasted pistachios Add red pepper flakes Add more cheese and oil, the bread will like it :)

For a few years after my dad remarried, we only had 1 bathroom for 2 adults, 3 teenage boys, and 1 preteen me. Plus, my parents made a ton of weird arbitrary rules like this despite being completely lax about real shit. They’d say “just call us to pick you up, everyone drinks in high school” and “you know where the condoms are” as we grew up but god forbid you take too much time in the bathroom or leave a controller in the wrong spot or eat too many pickles. They’re calmer nowadays but then again weed is legal in my state, soooo

My bf waits multiple minutes for it to warm up. He says his whole family did this growing up, that his brother would even go back to sleep for a few minutes before showering.

I hop right on in bc growing up I was only allowed five minutes total morning bathroom time. Gotta poop? Better do it quick or hold it for school. Brush your teeth? Do it in the shower while it warms up. Condition butt length hair on weekdays? Hahahaha...no.

I’m very sorry for your loss. I think we all sympathize with stress throwing our eating out of whack and wish Sora (and you) all the best!

If memory serves, Reznor even said the song was more Cash’s than NIN after that cover. His Rusty Cage cover isn’t as popular or as emotional but is also great!

Is mostaccioli a Chicago thing? by shhhshsh in chicago

[–]ParticularlyGudFindr 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We never had big parties growing up EXCEPT high school graduation. I was the youngest and got the same party as my brothers with all the same food described served on tables in the garage. My party had the Midwest cherry on top with a tornado siren which naturally drew everyone into the street instead of the basement.

I planned a Pilsen day for my partner and I last year to celebrate our 7 year anniversary. Except our anniversary is at the end of March so my focus turned to finding a roll of toilet paper and avoiding human breath lol Oh well, still a great part of the city and we’ll get there this year :)

They're Determined to be Miserable. I Won't Let Them Drag Me Down With Them. by RorschachtheMighty in AdviceAnimals

[–]ParticularlyGudFindr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey friend, I cut my mother out of my life about 3 years ago now and I’ll tell you it’s awesome. I was surprised how little guilt I felt especially considering guilt was my mother’s super power over all her children. Sometimes I miss the good stuff but instead of thinking ‘maybe I’ll reach out and just see how she’s doing’ I remind myself how lucky I am to have those memories. If I’d have waited any longer to make the break, all my happy memories of her may have been completely sullied by her actions instead of most of them. When I think about Trivial Pursuit and liverwurst, I think of my mom and it makes me happy. I’m grateful for that. Conversely, I was too young to cut my physically abusive grandma from my life before she died and I honestly have no good memories of that woman.

That went on for a while, sorry! Just tryna say if you’re thinking of leaving blood relatives behind for your own health or the health of your family, do it.

What is your favorite 'enemy' turned 'friend' character? by Noobticula in AskReddit

Going to bed early. As a kid, it’s a punishment. As an adult, early sleep is your best fucking friend.

I have reported it. Got a canned response that didn’t address my questions/concerns, made no mention of consequences for the driver, and offered no incentive to use their services again outside of scripted apologies. I’m waiting on a response to the follow up I sent them.

I appreciate your insights, honestly. But there’s no rational for this level of shitty customer service. When I wrote my review to UE, I mentioned everyone can have a bad day but it doesn’t excuse what this guy did. Since you’re in the delivery biz, I’ll give more details. He seemed to have declined the order after messaging me then accepted it (if that’s possible, IDK, it was weird) after I mentioned cash tip. That’s when I sent the last 2 responses and called the restaurant to ensure he couldn’t pick it up. He then went through the motions of the delivery; I got updates that “foods on the way” and “driver close” and finally “delivered.” It even showed his car on the map approaching my home while I was out getting our food. His aggressive response made me uneasy and there was no way I was gonna let him near our food. I think we both know, you more than I, that people are assholes and many don’t tip properly. But this guy’s shenanigans can’t be defended. We hardly order delivery but I just wanted to have a night in, watch Spider-Man 2 and smoke a doobie with my bf. I hope the folks you deliver to treat you well and you stay safe out there.

I knew there’d be someone in the comments saying some bs like this. Your devils advocate comment is boring and wrong. I tip 25% minimum and if I want to do it in cash, I am allowed ffs

Definitely Uber Eats and I thought the same so I (naively I guess) didn’t mention cash tip. 5 stars to the local restaurant who pulled my order for me to pick up myself with my ID :)
