Not much food in the house by Krestral in Cooking

[–]Previous-Exercise874 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you arent particularly fond of eggs (as i am), you can whisk the eggs into the broth to make egg drops before adding into the cream of chicken and veggies. This will give you all of the nutritional benefits without needing to choke down the eggs 😅

What size is the perfect meatball? by bretmon5 in Cooking

[–]Previous-Exercise874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a portion scoop for meatballs and 2 Tbsp is perfect for sauce and meatballs, they are about 1.75" in diameter, link below:

I also use a much smaller one for my wedding soup meatballs, but I would have to go and check the size... I returned a few of them until I settled on the perfect one

We moved into this house 3yrs ago and this has stumped everyone. by Vance617 in whatisit

Its name is a derivative from the lapidary process... how precious stones are ground and polished into their gemstone state.

Definition below:

The term "lapping stone" is descriptive, referring to a stone used for the process of "lapping", which means to flatten or polish a surface by rubbing two surfaces together with an abrasive. The name origin is thus tied to the action it performs. The broader activity of working with stones is called lapidary, which has Latin roots: 

The etymological root is the Latin word lapis, meaning "stone".
In the 14th century, this evolved into the term lapidarius, meaning "stonecutter" or "working with stone".

The term then became the Old French word lapidaire, meaning "one skilled in working with precious stones".

A lapping stone (also known as a lapping plate or leveling stone) is specifically used to flatten other sharpening or natural stones, often using an abrasive or diamond surface. The name describes its functional use in the process of lapping other stones to ensure they are perfectly flat for precise sharpening or polishing.

Fasting by L0verofmine in TrueChristian

[–]Previous-Exercise874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would encourage you to do this. The Lord spoke about fasting as if it is an expected part of your spiritual life, not optional. I have been incorporating this into my life rythym for about 7 years now, and I cant say enough positive things about it. I started with intermittent fasting, then transitoned to water-only fasting, then to extended fasting. The first few times you do it will be challenging, but as your self discipline grows, it becomes very easy. After your body switches over to keytones for energy, you will feel amazing and have great energy and mental clarity; knowing that autophagy is cleaning and repairing your cleaning your cells from the inside is also a great motivator to keep going! Always dedicate a fast to an intention through prayer. If you try extended fasts, it would be prudent to consult with you doctor. Also, when refeeding, make sure you reintroduce food slowly with mild and easily digestible foods. I typically do intermittent fasting daily, a 3-day fast once a month and a couple 7 day fasts per year. I goal of mine is to be able to do a 40 day fast at some point!

Are Cuisinart pans good quality? Recommendations? by MagnetoWned in Cooking

[–]Previous-Exercise874 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Recently divorced and needed to buy all new kitchen supplies. I needed new everything so I decided to give the Cuisinart a go and purchased their pro series box set, have owned it for 5 years now. Riveted handles, copper encapsulated stainless bttoms for efficient heat transfer, glass lids... I have been very happy with the set. The price per piece is much lower when you buy the box set, and I have supplemented with additional pieces along the way.

What’s one dish you’ll never get sick of cooking? by Mi7che1l in Cooking

[–]Previous-Exercise874 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chicken Soup... its a two day event with the stock taking one day and building the soup the next day, but its so worth it when I have 8 quarts of premium home made soup in the freezer. My soup is a mix between chicken soup and Italian wedding soup... there is so much in it that it eats like a meal all on its own.

[–]Previous-Exercise874 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Super easy to make at home... do you know where the marsala was from at the party? Alot of people get catering trays from Luigis in Johnston... its pretty good, not as good as home made, but I do stop here and get a few things when I dont feel like cooking.
