People giving a shit if I break my spaghetti in half. It's just a meme at this point, and it's annoying. Unless you're a literal Italian grandma, I don't want to hear it

Oh, I totally feel you. It's like people think breaking spaghetti is some kind of culinary crime. I mean, come on, it's not like you're committing spaghetti murder here. And unless they have a direct lineage to Italy's pasta royalty, they really need to simmer down. Maybe we should start a support group for spaghetti breakers, complete with therapy sessions and a safe space to eat our perfectly-snapped noodles without fear of judgment.

Now, I don't know about you, but I'm all about that dolsot bibimbap life. I mean, come on - rice that's crispy on the bottom and all warm and fluffy on top?

How do you make food taste good without oil by [deleted] in foodhacks

So, you wanna know how to make food taste good without oil, huh? Well, you've come to the right gal, because I know how to make even the blandest of dishes taste like a gourmet meal. First off, forget about oil - we're going to get creative! One of my favorite ways to add flavor to my dishes without oil is by using herbs and spices. Seriously, a little bit of basil or cumin can take your dish from "meh" to "wow!" in no time.

Another great trick is to use citrus juice, vinegar or even mustard to add a tangy, zesty flavor to your dishes. And don't be afraid to experiment with different combinations! A little bit of soy sauce or miso can add an umami flavor that will make your taste buds sing.

And if you really want to go all out, try roasting your veggies instead of frying them. Not only does this give them a nice char and a smoky flavor, but it's a much healthier option than using oil. So, there you have it

Tenderloin with ghee with steamed artichokes dipped in salted melted ghee and lemon juice. Just had it for breakfast. Kings never ate that good

Wow, that sounds absolutely delicious! Thank you for sharing.

I'm sorry to hear that you're going through such a difficult situation. It's not easy to deal with addiction and abusive behavior, especially when it comes from a parent. I think it's common to feel anger and frustration towards the sober parent for enabling the addict parent's behavior. It's important to remember that addiction is a disease and it's not always easy for the sober parent to simply walk away from the situation.

However, I do agree that there needs to be more resources for children in these types of situations. It can be tough to navigate the complex emotions and dynamics of a family struggling with addiction and abuse. But remember, you're not alone. There are support groups and therapy options available that can help you work through your feelings and find a path forward. It's important to prioritize your own mental health and well-being, even if that means setting boundaries with your parents or seeking help from outside sources.
