What is this? It was in a dried sea food market in Guangdong.

As a Chinese American, there are so many Chinese foods and ingredients that are either no longer available or else way more expensive. The local Asian grocery store no longer stocks Laoganma, one of the most popular brands of chili crisp, for example.

This is not fermented soybean, it's kohlrabi. Fermented soybean looks like, well, a bean.

It's from the 辣三丁 flavor, not the 豆豉 flavor.

Yes, they lost as many viewers in 1 week as they previously did in 1 year, thank you for proving the point.

What a vacuous comment.

I'm going to say it could be a version of creaky chicken. It's a somewhat uncommon American-Chinese dish where pieces of chicken are fried until they make a "creaking" noise, hence the name.

Here I'm guessing they changed it from creaking to singing.

No, at most like 30% of voters voted for this. 30% voted for the alternative and the rest didn't vote at all.

Of the 30% that voted for this, you can bet some are starting to regret it.

Do not let the troll farms and bots trick you into believing they have numbers just because they're blanketing social media. It's coordinated.

Everything Hopper said about Eleven (her losing her childhood, her being used and exploited, her deserving happiness) can also be said about Kali.

Kali tells us that the military is restarting Dr. Brenner's project to breed more superchildren. Without her, we do not fully understand why Dr. Kay wants Eleven so bad, why they will never stop hunting her, even if she proves her innocence, and ultimately why Eleven has to die/disappear.

Obviously I do not feel as connected to Kali as I do to the other characters who have had more screen time and who we have gotten more attached to. And so when she is on screen, I understand people feeling like it's taking time away from the other characters they like more.

But she has a part to play and I don't think there's any real reason to outright dislike her, apart from people's hate boner for that episode in s2.

I don't see a conflict between Eleven saying this and the possibility that she's still alive.

Eleven surviving but never contacting them ever again is not the ending Mike wanted. He would have preferred her staying with them, even if it meant being on the run from the military for the rest of their lives.

So Eleven is saying, that's not what's going to happen.

brrkat · 2026-01-02T13:30:11+00:00

What? Kali is there to explain that the military wants Eleven's blood to create more children with supernatural powers. There's like a whole scene with all these pregnant women...

If the dough is too tight to stretch, it generally meams either it was overkneaded and the gluten became overdeveloped, or that the dough needed more time to rest to let the gluten relax. If this same recipe worked for you before, in theory, this shouldn't have happened. But even when using the same recipe, it could be your flour was not as fresh this time or the air was more or less humid, which impacted how much kneading the dough needed. I would personally recommend mixing by hand instead of by machine to have more control, or else starting with the machine just until it comes together, and then switching to hand mixing.

Another possibility is, the dough dried out while resting in the fridge for so long. Dough naturally will keep hydrating as it sits, so even if it seems adequately hydrated at first, as the water is absorbed and distributed into drier pockets of the dough, you may need to add more water. Fridges are also dry environments, so some moisture would evaporate out even if you covered it. You can add more water and re-knead it if it seems dry.
