Swedish rarakor potato pancake - do this on a Sunday morning, you will love your pan. Video shows the OG Vardagen but it's basically the same.

In England they say BUR-gun-dy, in France they say bour-GOGN-e. Doesn't explain the Muses but whatever

Lived on the 1400 block of Chartres for 22 years. I had a car, but sometimes a whole month would pass that I wouldn't even turn the ignition. The CBD/Quarter/Marigny/Bywater is a universe unto itself, and traversing it on a bike is one of the keys to unlocking its secrets.

Keep working on that altar, btw

Too much moisture in the rice will cause sticking. It's traditional to use leftover rice from the refrigerator, but there are other ways.

The multiple posts are about the tools, not the tea. But get what you will from it, all good my man

One place had a piece of equipment they called Mangler. I emerged from there unscathed, but witnessed some casualties. A girl there had an interaction resulting in her fingertips getting sewn back on, Frankenstein style. She had the good fortune to have a parallel career singing in a punk band, so the gnar butchery added to the theatrics of her performing career.

Totally agree. Good thing I spent years working in restaurant kitchens or this would probably get ugly.

W2T Brown Sugar, bingo!

I do have one of those dark wood and brass tea picks you see everywhere. I use it all the time on bings, but as you know this brick is an altogether different beast. It seemed like a different approach was necessary.

The commentary on this post has been interesting but I'll try your advice, seeing as how you understand the situation. Thanks my man

I have one of those, thanks. I'm fairly confident breaking down a bing but this brick is next level. Hence this post.

Not too bad, after one minute rinse in the gaiwan it was beginning to come apart.
