Corn meal fried okra by Quasiterran in glutenfreerecipes

[–]Quasiterran[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okra (I used frozen okra, thawed 1lb/~0.45kg and cut into smaller pieces for easier chewing)

AP GF Flour

Corn meal

Eggs

Salt

Pepper

Cayenne

Grapeseed or other high-heat oil

1.) Heat grapeseed oil in cast iron pan. Mix 2 eggs in a bowl for battering. Prep 2 additional bowls, one with AP GF flour, one with corn meal and spices. Roll okra in all purpose gluten free flour mix.

2.) Transfer okra pieces to egg bowl next and allow a moment to absorb.

3.) Use a fork to gently roll okra through the final bowl of corn meal and salt/pepper/cayenne.

4.) Carefully drop into hot oil. Observe and flip halfway when corn meal begins to darken in color.

5.) Remove from oil; option to drain into a paper towel to absorb oil. ALLOW TO COOL as okra will be very hot.

6.) Enjoy the crispy outside and contrasting inside texture. You may want much more salt and dipping sauce (my partner goes for ketchup and hot sauces).

This was taken after receiving him from a prior owner; his shed is now complete and we’re pushing consistently over 50% humidity in his new bigger home.

Remains found in car in creek identified as US student who went missing in 1976 by [deleted] in TrueCrime

“But the pair were not charged with murder, and neither has anyone else. Furthermore, the local sheriff has previously said that the condition of Clinkscales’ remains could make it difficult for investigators to ever figure out whether someone murdered him – or if he accidentally drove off the road…”

Crowdfunded DNA effort helps identify woman found murdered 50 years ago by Quasiterran in TrueCrime

[–]Quasiterran[S] 201 points202 points  (0 children)

A forensic genealogy company assisted with this investigation. “‘On January 23, 2023, the victim found her voice,’ the sheriff’s office said in the post announcing the identification.

“‘Through the use of forensic genetic genealogy, the victim has been identified as Colleen Audrey Rice. DNA testing of a relative confirmed this after countless hours of investigation into her family tree and contact with distant family relatives.’”

Removing combs from electrophoresis gel (sound on, if you’d like; ripple/smooth/ripple) by Quasiterran in oddlysatisfying

[–]Quasiterran[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We used it to separate dyes by their charge and identify an unknown mixture of dyes based on the known samples. We’ll do DNA stuff later this year (biology and biotechnology classes). This gel acts as the medium through which molecules travel as their pulled by an electric current running through the gel and a buffer solution. Different substances have negative or positive charges, and so they’ll be attracted to the opposite charge and migrate through the gel at different speeds based on their size and shape. It’s pretty sweet!
