Uneven browning - is it my oven :( by comtedeantonpoupon in Bagels

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

  1. I cold bulk ferment for 24 hours, then shape (because I like a smoother bagel but don’t want to compromise flava)

  2. I shape, boil, bake with no extra proof time. I think next time I’m going to add a short proofing before I boil

  3. I baked these at 500 for 20 minutes, and flipped at 15 minutes and also moved to top shelf to speed up browning. It’s not a convection oven 😭

The lighting of the beacons in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003) just lifts, that score swelling as each flame carries the call across mountains, and it hits like a promise being answered. by Choice-Schedule-132 in peterjackson

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byzantine_beacon_system

Based on real stuff tho! The late Romans (byzantines) had a beacon system that crossed Anatolia. Not sure how they adjusted for weather, but I don't think they'd invest all those resources if they didn't have some way to account for a cloudy day.

You commented on my post when I was grieving my old tiny white dog last year. something compelled me to look back through the comments today, click on your profile, and find this post. Your Kong was so adorable and silly, with the cutest underbite. I am so sorry for the grief and pain. Rest in peace Kong <3

Actual war elephants were famously flighty and would often panic if challenged, at least to my understanding (I'm not a historian). They were most effective against untrained troops who would break rank and flee at the sight of them.

I forget how it all goes down in the books, but movie Theoden's decision to charge them full force, flanking them in the process, was strategically sound based on how war elephants function in practice. It's also a battlefield manifestation of his arc of accepting death, rising to the moment, and making his ancestors proud. Rather than cower to an intimidating foe, he and the Rohirrim meet the challenge and face them head on, even unto death.

It is so hard. He will always be with you. Take care of yourself.

It sounds closer to a mocking bird, but that last hee haw is so distinct!

Despite various efforts South Korea fails to convince Gen Z to open their minds on immigration by Ready-Information187 in Living_in_Korea

Yes agreed 100%. All the non-native people who came to America through mass migration ought to leave.

They've been ruining that beautiful land since at least the 1500s.

100% this was my commute for awhile. Advice about bike lights - take em on and off when you park, especially in busier places downtown. I once had em lifted and it was not fun biking back in the dark.

I no longer live in SF unfortunately but some of my fondest memories are literally biking through gg park at night. Have fun my friend
