  • Uh hunh. 30+ years in culinary across several countries and dozens of cultures, and you're the expert. Oh, sweetie.

  • It wasn't taken personally, son. You're just wrong, is all.

  • Um... No. Don't blame your tools. Improve your technique. A knife is only as sharp as the mind wielding it. 👩🏼‍🍳

  • Remember when The Black Panthers were labeled a "gang"? You know, that OG "revolutionary" org initially focused on armed self-defense against police brutality, by blending Black nationalism, socialism, and self-defense, while advocating for the rights & empowerment of African Americans and marginalized people everywhere?

    They created and maintained such heinous criminal enterprises as:

    • Free Breakfast for Children Program,
    • People's Free Medical Clinics (PFMCs),
    • Liberation Schools
    • the Oakland Community School
    • and many other community-activation initiatives

    Yeah. Exactly. They're criminalizing any & all resistance. Full stop.

    Fascists gonna fascist.

  • But... Can I still just become a mushroom, please? 🥹

  • Y'all must have some crazy strong-flavored marsh weed. The common leeks in the US (store bought or homegrown) tend to be milder than late-season scallions with a fibrous structure akin to artichoke leaves. That's genuinely interesting!

  • I'll take Tim Curry (minus the rapist, thx) or Alan Rickman, hands down.

  • If you keep your knife properly sharp, you'll do better in pretty much every cooking project.

    A dull knife crushes more than it cuts, squeezing out the allinases and misting the air with them.

  • Salad isn't generally "cooking", TBF. Hell, it's one of the reasons why garde manger is the next rung up from commis/chaos goblin. 👩🏼‍🍳

  • So... You? 🤷🏽‍♂️

  • And, if you instead soak them in a thinned, high-fat dairy of your choice (ie. buttermilk, diluted crème fraîche, etc.), the onions' allinases are even more delicate and allow for the subtle notes of your chosen cultivar to be enjoyed in their place. FWIW, this is a key step in fried onion rings.

  • TIL: In Finland, leeks are like onions.

  • Kathy Bates has entered the chat

  • None of those are "finely sliced rings", though...

  • Are they bringing their guns to the lynching? I hope they're bringing their guns to the lynching.
