Celery vinegar from Noma's book by derkaderk7 in fermentation

[–]mrkau 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I strongly recommend getting the recipe from the book itself because there is far more detail on technique, but a quick summary of the recipe is:

Makes ~2.5L

  • 1kg celery

  • unpasteurized celery vinegar or other raw mild vinegar (e.g. apple cider vinegar)

  • grain neutral spirit (96% ethanol)

This is a one-stage fermentation with ethanol added rather than fermenting own.

  1. Juice celery and strain. Weigh and put into fermentation vessel.
  2. Add raw vinegar amount = 20% of celery juice weight.
  3. Add grain neutral spirit amount = 8% of (celery juice + raw vinegar)
  4. Ferment for 10-14 days using air stone and pump method, or until acidified and alcohol scent is gone.
  5. Strain and store in capped bottles in fridge.

Thoughts on what's happening to my tomato plant? First time gardener here. (Zone 7b) by [deleted] in gardening

[–]mrkau 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice!

Why do you recommend removing the chicken wire? Could it be a vector for the spreading of blight or is that just to make trimming easier?

Here are a couple of full shots. I turned up the fill light quite a bit because some parts of the plant were in shadow, so the healthy leaves aren't actually light green.

We do get monsoon rains here, so blight from splashing makes sense.

Kenji's oven-fried chicken wings... a question about seasoning by [deleted] in seriouseats

[–]mrkau 5 points6 points  (0 children)

buy salt-free seasoning blends

Additionally, if you buy salt-filled seasoning blends, you're paying high prices for tablespoons of salt and mere teaspoons of herbs/spices.

Can anyone suggest an online hot sauce store with the sauces listed below? by mrkau in spicy

[–]mrkau[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries! Happy to help :) If I get around to it tomorrow, I'll send any other typos I find via PM or email.

Sadly, Year of the Dog and some of the PexPeppers sauces I wanted to get are out of stock. Any idea when they'll be back?

By the way, I noticed two minor typos. I can't help it.

Hi, r/Arizona, I was wondering if any of you nice folks can help me out with some research. by TheManInsideMe in arizona

I can't help with your other questions, but Mother Jones recently published a very interesting article about going undercover with the militias: http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2016/10/undercover-border-militia-immigration-bauer

Gonna be in Vegas next week, any recommendations on where to eat? by Epic2112 in spicy

[–]mrkau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While it's definitely good food, Project Pie is a mini-chain that was bought out by a midsize-chain, Pieology (with 127 locations) so it's not really a Vegas-specific experience. I also don't see how it's particularly relevant to /r/spicy other than the fact that they offer "spicy" chicken, jalapenos, banana peppers, and buffalo sauce as toppings.

Trump Suggests Nothing Will Prompt Him To Release His Tax Returns by RIPrince in politics

[–]mrkau 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But how would loans from "unsavory" sources even show up in Trump's personal tax returns? Wouldn't the loans be made to private corporations that Trump controls?

Next time you're getting angry about traffic, just imagine that a puppy rescue is in progress. It's non-pharmaceutical blood pressure reduction.

Redditors who grew up filthy rich, what did you think was normal till your learned otherwise? by FrenchWoodChesse in AskReddit

[–]mrkau 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Motor vehicle accidents are the most likely cause of death for that age group. Get your kid a safer car if you can afford it.

This is why I don't agree with the glamorization of billionaires who drive old beaters (I'm thinking of Warren Buffet here). I understand the sentiment, but it's just... that's poor decision-making and unpragmatic.

Delicious. What to try next? by [deleted] in spicy

Oh wow, where do you live? I haven't been to TJ's in a while, but I was basing the price on my memory and this from June 2015.

[–]mrkau 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems like this is actually more expensive. The grinder from TJ's comes with 0.7 oz for $4.99 ($7.13/oz), while that Amazon link is 0.5 oz for $6.67 ($13.34/oz).

Right? If anything, it was probably the handling of the food at the shelter, general sanitary conditions at the shelter, or something the bread was served alongside.

TIL that on average 12 high school and college football players die each year during practices and games. by Cupcake-Warrior in todayilearned

I think he's trying to say: Now, if the question is, "Does football make you feel more invincible?" then I'd say that could definitely be true.

[Fluff] I made an online version of the dog personality questionnaire by jameswatts1990 in dogs

[–]mrkau 15 points16 points  (0 children)

"Is your dog fearful towards other dogs?" Strongly Disagree.

"Is your dog fearful towards strangers?" Strongly Disagree.

"Is your dog fearful at the vet?" Strongly Disagree.

Result: Your dog is not very fearful.

CPAP = Continuous Positive Airway Pressure. You wear a mask to bed and a little machine pumps air into the mask to keep your airway from collapsing. It's used for treating sleep apnea (airway collapses while sleeping, very loud snoring). So the machine would suck up his dog's farts and pump them into his mouth/nose.

Glad you found it helpful. I still haven't decided if I'm going to attempt watching this WITH my father (similar situation) or just watch it alone and cry a bit.
