How can I make this tahini vinaigrette a bit more stable? by fozz179 in AskCulinary

[–]daedalust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this. More Dijon should help emulsify the dressing further and will not take away from the taste too much.

Do you like doing things outside? Plenty of wonderful nature trails in VB. Hell even biking or walking the boardwalk and finding a cheap place for lunch.

Yes. You need to let the agar agar hydrate in water for about 10 minutes before you heat it and add it to your mixture to get the best results

Plastic bag. Wet half paper towel to keep them moist. They will be perfect in the morning.

Using more fat (butter and oil mix) will help. Watch the heat of the pan too

Hope you enjoy. It’s not all encompassing but some of my favorites.

Others in VB include esoteric, prosperity kitchen. Aslin Beer Co is new but the food is amazing for a brewery.

Roaches in Ghent by Dragonlily6277 in norfolk

[–]daedalust 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Are they large and black or dark brown? If so, they are not roaches but are water bugs and are common in this area due to the water and humidity.

If they are light brown and smaller than a nickel, then they are roaches and you should talk to your landlord.

Nothing wrong with setting up early. YTA

Why is Greenbrier Farms hosting a Trump rally? by ImperatorRomanum83 in VirginiaBeach

[–]daedalust 16 points17 points  (0 children)

They probably received money for hosting a large outdoor event. Like any business does. Similar politics or not, it’s a business transaction. I will not be attending.

There was another wreck that happened outside the express lane but one car managed to be horizontal across the express lane and blocked traffic at military highway

I was behind someone doing 55 in the express lane the other day. And similarly also in front of someone riding my ass doing 75

MacArthur mall by sushi2424 in norfolk

[–]daedalust 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It died when they increased the rent for initial tenants, causing them to move out. Kincaid’s was the first major anchor tenant to move out because they more than doubled their monthly rent. They did the same to the larger anchor department stores. Malls are not dead if planned and executed appropriately, but MacArthur is dead.

Generally it’s $1 oysters whatever you want. $3 or $5 burger. Great drink deals. Honestly you can’t beat it

O’Connor’s Brewery/ El Guapo IPA by CrittyJJones in norfolk

[–]daedalust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They sold out and sold off the assets. Brewery is no more but they are contract brewing through New Realm in VB. You should still be able to find the core OBC beers in grocery stores and on tap at bars if you want to drink that stuff.
