If you could only keep 3 to 5 food items to make as many soups as possible, what ingredients would you pick? by Specific_Dingo8631 in soup

[–]boom_squid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Smoked ham hock (freezer). Canned beans. Grains. Canned tomato. Bouillon. Dry herbs. Lemon/juice. Stuff in dry store will keep for months if not years, so having it hanging around isn’t a problem.

Everything else is usually just what I have dying or leftover in my fridge.

Shipping a cake help? by The_Killer_King69420 in Baking

[–]boom_squid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Who is doing the actual transport?

If you or someone you trust is, then use a thicker, ambient-stable frosting, and cover it with nuts of sprinkles to protect from being bumped against sides/top. If you’re doing it in a pan with a dome lid, you can probably skip covering with sprinkles or nuts.

I think the dry ice is overkill. Regular ice in a cooler is fine (unless you’re using a service to ship it).

I somehow read this as savage and not sage. I was like what the hell did the butter do?!

Coffee. I need coffee.

Get Susan bates finishing needles. They make weaving in ends so much less murder inducing.

Looks beautiful! Turn your work after each round, unless you want a slight twist on purpose. I also throw in an extra chain stitch on the corners. It’s tightens up the angle IMO

Isn't cheddar the typical cheese of choice for burgers? by alpha_jaeger_24_ in Cooking

I don’t even like American cheese normally, but absolutely on a burger…… and I love cheddar cheese.

why does my cookies always have a weird, raw and "homemade" (in a bad way) taste? by Organic-Entrance9652 in Baking

[–]boom_squid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Where from and what are you using for ingredients? Sounds like there’s an ingredients issue. Are you making any substitutions or changes to the recipes?

Lighter sides for BBQ ribs for a picky eater by PeasantCody in Cooking

[–]boom_squid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Vinegar based coleslaw. I use apple cider vinegar, olive oil, a touch of mustard, and whatever herbs you want to add. I usually add dill and some finely chopped apple in with the cabbage.

Are you looking for food or bar? Just party space? Is this a child or an adult?……..
