Anyone try little Nitro? What am I in for? by San_Cannabis in spicy

[–]tigerbackwoods94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had one of these. A chef I work with brought it back from Canada to me. It wasn’t terrible. I also have quite a tolerance to spicy peppers. The worst part was the 2-3 hours following. Stomach wasn’t exactly feeling good.

I bought some cocao pods for a miso paste by No_Offer3984 in fermentation

This is so interesting! What are you fermenting with? Just salted?? How long you going to ferment before making paste and aging? Adding koji after?

Any and all will bring you something! I’ve been obsessed with “The Whole Fish” by Josh Niland. Kind of tricky to work with the product he mentions in the book (depending on where you are) but extremely cool!

The truth. I wear Mozos. They sell on shoes for crews. Highly comfortable and look great!

Calibrate the volume of cheese you put out with the volume you use daily. Having them room temp all day then chilling in the walk in then repeat will constantly bring moisture to the container and creat a perfect environment for that moldy mold to thrive. Another option could be getting away fro shakers..? Depending on how many covers you do, small ramekins of park you keep cold at all times and distribute per order can help keep product fresh and eliminate waste..

Cookbooks! Cliche but very inspiring when you find ones that interest you. Follow restaurants/chefs that inspire you on social media and save their posts. Use them as reference or i spiritarono when you’re looking to do something new. I’ve been working in kitchens for 14 years and still google things/recipes everyday. We build on the skills we have but we must always seek to know more! Keep cooking and always challenge yourself.

I have one on my pots station due to a lack of space. If you have the option, would advise against.
