  • It's not exactly black pepper. It's like mangoes and black pepper share a something, and that's enough to remind me of black pepper, if that makes sense.

    This does mean I like it enough as an ingredient - for example, I would eat mango salsa.

  • It's way better if you feed all the ingredients through a meat grinder (the irony is not lost on me), rather than a food processor. Think corn meal texture vs flour texture.

    Also, deep fry it. Baking it just isn't nearly as good.

  • Or it's people trying to muddy the water to both-sides something. I've been noticing an uptick of posts from the far-right crowd creeping out of the woodwork recently, and they're all up in arms about people saying US Conservatives are intolerant.

    Being told not to be an asshole to others isn't intolerance. It is the intolerance of intolerance - which is a necessary part of a tolerant society.

    See: The Paradox of Intolerance (which the far right nuts call the new Mein Kamp. Gross).

  • You mean like the threat of the end of democracy? Or the housing crisis? Or the student debt crisis? Inflation (which is largely just greed)? Increasing wealth disparity? Frozen wage increases? Loss of pensions? Threats to social security? Medical costs increasing and insurance paying out less and less?

    Have empathy, and look around. Just because you are OK now doesn't mean everyone is.

  • Tofu is a pain. Try heating the pan significantly before adding oil, and then toss the food in on top of the oil shortly after.

    Alternatively, scallions in oil help to make a non stick coating. Or a lecithin-containing spray oil. The lecithin helps prevent sticking way more than the oil itself does.

    Or tell your pan to shut up, and either deep fry or air fry it.

  • Let me help!

    • 1 block tempeh, sliced down the middle long ways, and then clicked into little rectangle slices. Pan fry in a little oil of you choice.

    Combine for sauce (put in a bowl and toss the tempeh in it after - cooked peanut butter isn't great, imo):

    • 1 part soy sauce or tamari
    • 1 part lime juice
    • 1 part sriracha
    • 1 part brown sugar
    • 2 parts peanut butter

    Get back to me. This is one of my absolute favorites!

  • Tofu is fine, but tempeh is almost as widely available in supermarkets, has a higher protein density, is fermented, and works in soooo many things. It's also way easier to get the hang of marinating and cooking.

    I mention this only because I love it so much, and I'd love for people that shit on vegan food to give that a go (lightly pan fried, and then tossed in a gooey before sriracha-soy-peanut-butter-lime-brown-sugar sauce) and get back to me. I could eat it every night and never get tired of it.

  • If you can help it - sign up for nothing with a direct bank withdrawal or debit card. Use a credit card, because it puts an important barrier between you and your purchases. It's way easier to get help with stuff for credit cards, and it's easier to cancel than getting a new bank account. Bonus: charge backs punish these assholes.

  • Because when an entire generation cannot afford housing, and an older generation starts dying, the houses have nowhere to go. Right now, houses are just changing hands and climbing a wealth generation ladder, but the last buyer at the high prices holds the bag when it all falls apart.
