  • My Dog Buddy just turned 4 years old yesterday. I flew home for it. And we give him all kinds of snacks and treats all day long. Question is. Does he actually know its his B-Day or just we are.....

  • ‘Tesla is a good target’: Elon Musk’s car business is focus of fury for political role

  • Atrioc is indeed pretty insightful as to the actual reasons why Tesla is viewed as an albatross - the fact that major stakeholders are selling off shares as soon as they acquire them should be a big warning sign. They are still massively over valued of course.

    My takeaway is that protests and the like should start going after his other businesses especially SpaceX. His fucking fantasy is Mars and we should take that away from him.

  • As a queer Bostonian born and raised - while there is massive racism and sexism Boston has also traditionally (with one big exception) supported strong counterculture movements and stood up to oppression. Pretty much every ethicnic group has oppressed and been oppressed by every other one and the city exists in a strange balance of mutual loathing that is somehow quite supportive.

    He and Elon are simply too dangerous and if America wants to continue being a country both of them need very public lessons to discourage copycats.

  • [QUESTION] Crispy rice in a cast iron pan?

    Jump

  • Cast iron is excellent for delivering a lot of consistent heat - I use it for searing steaks and greatly prefer it to a grill.

    If you want to make it extremely crispy you'll want to make sure the precooked rice is relatively dry (instead of 1 cup to 1.75 or 1.5 cups of water use 1.25 or 1 - make sure the rice is still edibly hydrated as some rice variants take different water ratios).

    It's possible incorporating sugar into the rice (i.e. coconut milk instead of water) will help it crisp faster but with the approach I'll suggest below there's a danger of burning the sugar which will end up tasting like shit - you may want to reserve coconut milk to partway through the process.

    With your rice and stuff for the middle prepared (the middle can be whatever you want like (maybe start with a recipe for a Thai/Indian curry? Or some mix of poblanos, cheese, and meat/beans for more Mexican flavors?)) Mix some rice into the middle for consistency and set both aside and prepare your pan. Everything in this middle mixture should be pre-cooked and food safe, if you have meat make sure it has been cooked to a safe temperature.

    You should set your stove to high and place your cast iron pan on it to warm for a few minutes, how long will depend on your cook surface but put some oil into the pan and wait until it's shimmering/wicked fucking hot - consider using an oil with a high smoke point. Keep an oven mit in reach to manipulate the pan.

    Once it's piping fucking hot pour in the rice that's still separate and use cookware (metal or wooden- not plastic - maybe silicon if you really trust it's an actual heat resistant silicon) and press it into the pan including up the edges - once that's done drizzle oil around the edge of the pan so that those edges have extra help crisping up. Do not touch, do not stir, do not disturb but do watch it like a hawk.

    Once it starts to fry a bit short of your desired firmity pour in the middle and let the mixture cook through. If it's too moist you can always transfer it to the oven to dry out but you're essentially just warming the central mixture and trying to get that yummy flavor to soak into the crispy layer.

    It's always fun to improvise in the kitchen!

  • I think it's necessary but it's a terrible sign for democracy that it is necessary. The popularity of such an obviously foreign backed party is a clear sign that the dominant parties are fueling deep internal dissent.
