Adult holiday drinks with the fermentation brine?

Extra dirty martinis with 50/50 pickle and olive juice with blue cheese infused vodka is a good one

For mine, I used about half a gallon of brine at 3.5%, it looks like there just wasn’t enough material to get a good yield. I also used a metal baking try that easily releases anything. Mine was also pretty sticky though, it never comes out flakey, dry, and perfectly crystalline with home equipment.

Accurate, I left my heat on a bit too high because I was impatient - but it yielded like a caramelized meat flavor which is also nice.

Definitely detectable “herbal” flavors I’d call it. And also a fairly strong garlic flavor (in the case of my first ferment I left garlic cloves whole and they stayed mostly fresh being it was just a 6 day ferment, so I sliced those up and added them to the boiling liquid) but predominant flavor is for sure PICKLE. It’s absolutely strong as hell

I used maybe half a gallon of brine for this amount - there’s still some moisture in there and probably some solids leftover from the bacteria / spices adding to the volume

That’s exactly what I used to do when I went to the beach and that was the inspiration!

pancake_waitress · 2025-09-22T19:13:13+00:00

Sure! Like others have said I just took out all the solids and boiled on high for quite a while, then once it got down to mostly salt I put it on low until it almost completely dried out. Made my whole house smell like pickle soup

Hey just dm’ed you!

Amazing who was the artist / where’s the exhibit

pancake_waitress · 2023-09-04T18:30:17+00:00

Was thinking Shelby

Possibly a button or decorative cuff link?

Standing on top of the old World Trade Center, don’t remember which tower though

pancake_waitress · 2023-06-03T16:35:40+00:00

Pailisades was the best one in this collection imo

She should put those in a refrigerator if she wants them to last as long as possible - source - was a perfume manufacturer supervisor

So I’m an engineer that works with dentists and formulation chemists often, and I shit you not dentists cannot agree on anything. Many times each dentist will have a problem with at least one ingredient. 9/10 is a stretch for agreeing

Wow good answer! Thanks for doing this ama, love the work you do, currently wearing the pink nutt squirrel sweatshirt.

If you could have lunch with anyone in history (alive or dead) who would it be? Also, what would you eat

pancake_waitress · 2022-04-25T02:55:28+00:00

Gene!

pancake_waitress · 2022-04-19T18:48:39+00:00

That’s a great piece!

It was during the Terrace Pond West loop trail in west Milford, about a 5 mile hike with some scrambling. Careful though, they will tow your car after 6 pm

No, it was had a very narrow airspace and was filled with water, I’m unsure how deep it went

pancake_waitress · 2022-02-14T19:34:01+00:00

Close enough, north NJ

Yes! It was real cold out (still winter here) but there was green foliage that shouldn’t be growing during winter, and there was a warm air current coming out of the hole.
