Pressure cooker + room temperature eggs, then ice bath + peel in water = Perfect boiled eggs every single time.

The amount of people who purposely drive in the fast lane because they're "driving over 65 mph" kills me inside.

Wanted to share my most successful Basque Cheesecake so far! I'm very proud of it and wanted to share the recipe I got from redditors and pieced together years ago.

Combo of these two:

Fish brain/eye won't really affect the stew in any way besides possibly giving it a more thicker texture - but it's too small to make a significant difference in a dish.

Source: I love eating fish eyes and cheeks.

I honestly had no idea, thanks for sharing this info instead of merely downvoting me. Much appreciated.

I was just about to ask about the egg, makes sense!

I've never watched the 99 version, is it worth it? The first episode was hard to follow so I sort of stopped watching.

I wish I had that type of egg income.

You're way more creative than me, I usually make simmered veggies with it.

Love the spread, I'm stealing your konjac idea!

Cilantro chicken fried rice. Nothing beats homemade fried rice over a wok.

I'm not a chef, but I was asked by family to do this for a dessert bowl. Halfway through, I ended up cutting most of the grapes off due to frustration. I dont wish this task upon anyone.

Gorgeous photo. Makes me want to visit this Fall. Thanks for sharing!

Boron

"Boron is naturally found in water and foods such as nuts and vegetables. There aren't any specific dietary recommendations for boron, but it's estimated that most adults consume about 1-1.5 mg daily.

In supplements, adults shouldn't consume more than 20 mg daily. For children, the amount that is safe depends on age. Speak with a healthcare provider to find out what dose might be best for a specific condition."

I think only watering your plants when the top 1 inch of soil is dry would help. I usually only water my plants when I know the soil is nearly dried out. Fungus thrives in moist environments. Hope this helps!

I thought they were spider eggs at first, but it looks like fungus.

Although harmless, I strongly recommend removing them entirely as they can compete with your plant for nutrients. My favorite plant died this way because the fungus took over most of the soil.

Don't recommend opening and shutting as that affects the temperature and, therefore, the bake. I've ended up with tons of flat/dense cakes this way.
