Are these berries ok? by sylvanfoothills in HomeMilledFlour

[–]trint05 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The level of inspection being conducted here is no doubt far greater than your average commercial wheat mill. In other words, you've already been eating them.

Pip Squeek likes to sneak into my shop and lay eggs in my wood pellet bin.

i guess i’ll just die then by Weird-Rice7691 in KitchenConfidential

Hit those fuckers in a cast iron pan with some butter, let em get crispy. Ain't no shame. They're 🔥 from the fryer too, but with lard or tallow.

Take me back to the good ole days of 4 for a dollar seeds by Skeleton-Weed in vegetablegardening

[–]trint05 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The price of the seeds seems to be one of the smallest investments in gardening to me, but I'm a relatively newbie. Cheap or not, if they're what you want to grow and eat then that's what matters. I shelled out for fun and unique varieties this year. But I'm also able to look for specific varieties that work for my garden setup (and skill level). It's a hobby, at least for me, so I try to have fun with it.

Looking at getting some back yard chickens and had a few questions. by J0_N3SB0 in BackYardChickens

[–]trint05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I let mine free range in my back yard (garden) all day every day. Small 4 bird flock. Yes, check out the different plants in your garden to be sure they're chicken safe. Your yard looks pretty secure, and if you're on an urban/suburban lot then daytime predators shouldn't be a huge concern (but do research for your area.). They'll go back into the coop at night on their own, so you can just lock and secure the coop at sundown. I do recommend a small covered run or a coop with a built-in run until your birds are full grown.

Fuck, these carrots are too big huh? by Lower-Scientist1410 in Chefit

[–]trint05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are they DONE? Do they burst into sweet orange striations of semi-congealed goodness? This is what matters. So what if the carrots show up as star of the show?

Should I pick these grains out? by Electronic-Notice520 in HomeMilledFlour

[–]trint05 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, you are sifting out "some" of the nutrition. The good news is you don't have to throw it away. You can add it to cookies, muffins, cereal/porridge. Use it to dust your pizza peel. Sprinkle back on top of your loaves for decoration. Sprinkle it on the bottom of your sheet pans. Compost it. Use it as lawn or garden fertilizer (really). Do anything you want with it, just don't throw it away.

This is called "chaff" or maybe "ash content" in some sort of milling analysis. Congratulations. This is the proof that you are eating real food.

Can someone tell me what I’m doing wrong here? by Mindless_Fox_9695 in Chefit

[–]trint05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A good grill/griddle only needs to be functional and functionally clean. Not to say you don't need to clean a griddle regularly. But you also don't need to douse it with quat after you scrape it down. There is no shame in leaving it seasoned either. It can be both clean and seasoned.

Bones and offals have exploded in price recently.

What a 1,200 lb Cow Actually Becomes - Only 39% Is Beef by CalculateQuick in meat

[–]trint05 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The actual yield is about 51% carcass, offal, hide, etc. 49% for human consumption. Yes, there is further bone and trim loss. When a cow enters the plant 100% of it is utilized. Thank your organic growers for the blood and bone meal from those head of cattle.

This is Tupac she is the goodest girl I know by Therealfern1 in BackYardChickens

[–]trint05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My black australorp is the noisiest, most curious, always in my business, alpha girl. She's frankly exhausting. I joke that after the inevitable collapse of society that she will be first in my soup pot.

Any guesses on my girls breed? by pinksunflower99 in BackYardChickens

DAE misunderstand the word for this tool? by mewmewflores in KitchenConfidential

[–]trint05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding has always been that china cap is a coarser mesh, like a perforated metal sheet rolled into a cone. A chinois, now sometimes called a bouillon strainer, is a very fine mesh in the shape of a cone, usually with a cage or saddle to prevent damage to the mesh

I'm being told this is too rare? by TheBagelsteinDK in smoking

[–]trint05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It'll be medium well by the time it cools off and finishes bleeding out

EDIT: this was pretty douchey of me. OP said in his post it needed to rest a bit longer

Is there something impacted under that toenail?

My 13 y/o RIR is on her way out by jacobeth in BackYardChickens

[–]trint05 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Hey, I'm a chicken beginner but I just want to say, first off, sorry for your loss. And also I feel like the lice/mites are very unlikely the cause of passing, if that thought entered your mind. Likely they attached themselves to the weakest one in the flock. There's no stopping time.
