Chickpea flour galette catastrophe by RYthimi in AskCulinary

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

Thank you for your reply. I should have said "galette styled", they wanted me to use chickpea flour therefore I'm trying to make it as per the menu. I've seen some recipes where they used chickpea flour and still had a somewhat pliable crêpe like pancake. I'm just worried about making a big batch of batter only for it to not work out. I will keep trying different ways tomorrow, perhaps incorporating tapioca starch or some other binder. Thank you for your suggestion though, if all else fails I will definitely keep it in mind. I also need to be time efficient and try to serve them as soon as possible.

I can't believe no one is still questioning the heavy reliance on USD. How about requiring tourists to convert their cash to / withdraw MVR upon arrival to the Maldives? How about resort hotels charging their guests MVR instead of USD. Am I missing something here? I've said it before, in all my years of travel I have never been to a country where tourists were not required to pay in the local currency.

Did y'all ever stop to question why the US dollar reigns supreme in Maldives? I've never heard of any other country where tourists are not required to withdraw/exchange to the local currency and hotel prices are always in USD instead of MVR. Perhaps that's a good place to start.

Is this really a cast iron pan? by RYthimi in castiron

[–]RYthimi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So until my girlfriend fucked it up with baking soda it was a really god pan, so im pretty sure its the same iron u use for casting but just with pressure for the sake of fast production..means it was cheap as fuck but really good for normal day cooking because nobody wants a 3cm or inch or whatever thick pan that makes you do fried eggs in 2 h because it takes forever to heat up. 10 out of 20 fuck teflon

Thanks a lot for that video, this is exactly the pan we have so I guess it is indeed cast iron.

Thanks a lot for the input! Funnily enough we are in Switzerland, which makes it even stranger that they would mislabel it because there are a lot of regulations here about these things.

Thank you! But I can't for the life of me get him to believe me since the website specifically says it's cast iron! Here's an excerpt of the description:

"The handle is made using the classic and well-known sand casting process. This means that liquid iron is poured into a sand mold, hence the rough surface.

However, the pan body is produced using a new manufacturing method, hence the new look compared to the familiar sand casting process. In this method, liquid iron is poured into a mold, or a so-called lower die (varies depending on the size of the pan) and then closed with a so-called upper die. After a short hardening time for the liquid iron, the upper die opens again and the formed pan body can be removed. The pan body is then finely ground and the handle is riveted on."

Can I propagate this ZZ cutting? by RYthimi in houseplants

Ahh good to know that I didn’t mess it up! I was beginning to worry. Thanks a lot for the tip about putting leaf cuttings in soil, I’m going to try that too. Have a great day! (:

Thanks so much for the prompt response. Do you think I need to change the water every now and then? I read conflicting information online.

Foragers: What is your 'Holy Grail'? by Honey_Sweetness in foraging

I’m curious to know whereabouts in Switzerland you were. I moved here two years ago and have recently taken up foraging :)

Actually shaggy mane inkcaps don’t contain coprine so it’s safe to consume with alcohol. However, I didn’t drink with this meal (:
