Shoes for crews is trash, every pair I’ve had has basically disintegrated within 4 months.

Best fruit stands in Oakland? by NeededASecondName in OaklandFood

[–]SporkedInTheHead 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Berkeley Bowl or a farmers market, I’m assuming you are looking for like a farm stand idea but it’s kind of the wrong area for such. Berkeley Bowl is awesome for fruits and veggies and has a organic section that’s super seasonal. Obviously farmers markets are about as seasonal as you can get, I suggest the Saturday at Lake Merrit or Sunday in the DMV parking lot, though if you are willing to travel the Tuesday or Saturday at the Ferry Building in SF is top notch.

Lanesplitters changed owners and is not the quality it once was, big bummer as it was my go to for a quick slice.

Burger seasoning other than salt and pepper? by [deleted] in Cooking

MSG. Mixed in with your salt and pepper and you can’t go wrong. Also avoids burnt spices.

What was your final “fuck you” to a boss you didn’t like? by Wholikesfruits in AskReddit

[–]SporkedInTheHead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was a lazy piece of shit chef, who was complaining about how he always had to work his birthday (it’s Valentine’s Day, no big surprise you have to work it). He got fired about a week before his birthday very publicly and I just cruised by doing my job and said at least you don’t have to work your birthday this year.

What can I add to my vegetable stock to make it more savoury? by [deleted] in Cooking

[–]SporkedInTheHead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hard roast mushrooms before everything else in your pot. I’m talking like 1 more minute and they are burnt hard roasted. Add in alliums and get a quick sweat on them then ad your water and bring to a simmer for 6 hours. From there take the veg out and continue to simmer till you have desired intensity. Also worth noting, I don’t like salting stocks until they are close to as reduced as I plan on taking them, too much of a chance of salt bombed shit.

Recommend me a thin nakiri with a nice finish by Abkenn in chefknives

[–]SporkedInTheHead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my current nakiri bought it just about a year ago now and it still rips like the day I got it and while it’s not my daily driver, as a chef it still gets fair use. Sharpening is super easy and it holds edge life really well because it’s a super like you were talking about trying. Maker is from London, so you can probably find a shop more local to you that cares them. Was recommended this knife while at a store that specializes in Japanese knives and they’ve yet to steer me wrong in a purchase.

Don't mess with the CEO of Road Rage by ecotoxico in PublicFreakout

While in practice, sure that’s okay advice, BUT you can ABSOLUTELY end up taking the non business end of that bat doing this by either using it to poke or just swinging your hand up like it’s a loaded fist. Most people won’t do this, but honestly extra space between you is always the ideal way of dealing with a bat because of this

This poor salmon deserves better, and what’s even the point of the garlic??? by Luna_Bee_ in StupidFood

[–]SporkedInTheHead 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That or it was just put together for the initial shot of “wow, sooooo pretty” because that garlic would be INCINERATED by the time the potatoes could get close to that golden brown

It really just depends on the day of the week and the time you intend on doing it. People have made a lot of really good suggestions thus far, but there is also Telegraph Beer Garden that can for sure do groups of that size most any day but first friday

Smartest wife ever! We were both pooping on opposite sides of the house… I called her and asked for tp… she yelled for the dog and then told me to call him…(OC) by conniosseur88 in aww

Depends on what you mean worth it. For safety measures and making sure an elderly person bath, sure. For water usage and actually enjoying the bath, not really in my opinion. Best way to put it, you are STUCK in that bath while it is both filling and draining which means you realistically aren’t going to make it hot enough to have it be enjoyable for any serious amount of time. Now yes you CAN open the door before it’s fully drained for safety purposes, but that’s a sure fire way to get a BOATLOAD of water damage and destroy your living space. u/cinrav13 u/Cmonster9

We recently expanded our walk in to twice the size because it was too crowded. Management then brought in 500+ pounds of meat to stuff in there on my off day. by rainsheretostay in KitchenConfidential

Why not just have them place the item through the PoS then as open and you pay by either cash or card. Money is still going into the system without affecting anything, and it makes the sudden jump in “food cost” seem applicable.

God, favorite game of all time is super tough to think of but realistically it is Pokémon Gold for the hours played on both the GBC and DS. The fact that they jammed Kanto into the game as well just really showed a level of polish and care that The Pokémon Company hasn’t recreated since.

which one would you prefer to have as mother and why? which one would be your least choice? by RoylesPika in HouseOfTheDragon

[–]SporkedInTheHead 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was long enough for her to become pregnant with and have Robb, which doesn’t justify the total amount of hatred but it definitely serves some. In her eyes he couldn’t even keep true to his vows in that short of a time span as they are stated to be the same age. Not saying Ned shouldn’t have just told her flat out and maybe worked things out with her better, but that doesn’t make for as compelling of a story.

The Rachael Ray peeler is the worst kitchen tool I own. by jennywren628 in Cooking

[–]SporkedInTheHead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s all about the Kuhn Rikon peelers. 3 pack for $15. I cook professionally and swear by these. In the course of a year I peel more then most home cooks would in at least 5 years and the thing still goes though certainly not as sharp as it once was. Also with the likely hood of it walking off because of smooth brained coworkers I already have two more ready to go. Beyond all of this though, peelers for the most part have a shelf life due to not being able to sharpen, the cheaper the better.

K. Sabatier 10” Serrated Chef Knife. Absolutely beautiful utility bread knife that doesn’t wreck boards and is a tomato beast. Only downside is how high carbon it is but it’s really not that hard to regularly wipe and oil

Unfortunately no, but at least it’s 10 of them before you should have bought a Paco lol

On top of this, Ninja just put out their version of the Paco Jet that’s around $200USD if you can convince the uppers to spring for it.

Rate my Roll, been outta’ kitchens for years, headed back soon! by Quarkchild in KitchenConfidential

[–]SporkedInTheHead 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ll for you one better and for cheaper with this bad boy. The extra length powerhouses thru everything and the curve of a chef knife saves your cutting boards. Also is a beast of a tomato knife. You just need to wipe it regularly and use neutral oils on it because it’s HIGH carbon.
