Hmmmmmh, Q. do I have an urge to be just like a middle aged IT dude who's high after sniffing several cans of solvent with a belly full of dead animal and booze? A. errrr, let me think about that
I don't know man, he had a pretty big dick for an armadillo. Raised my eyebrows a little. It was giving me at least a halfie for sure. Only like 'em when they're dead though. Those fuckers bite when you fuck them alive.
Anyone ever tried reducing liquor in a pan for cooking? I'm thinking about doing some hot dogs (brauts in shiner bock) with the onions and peppers in reduced mezcal if that might work. Figured put it slit homemade baguette as the bun and toss a little brandy on there, light it on fire, and you toast the bread and char the meat and veggies at the same time.
I make a variation of this and cook the marinade to reduce it to a sauce. Turns out great as long as I'm sober enough to not overcook the chicken. With yours I'd be curious to see if the flavors compliment each other once cooked with the other ingredients. I think both are fine on their own, so can't hurt to try.
Maybe it'll be entertaining. I think he should try to reduce the liquor, never heard of it being done before but I am not an expert.
What are you hoping to accomplish by reducing it? Most times liquor is used as part of a sauce or something for flavour, or sometimes colouring, and then the whole sauce is reduced... or liquor is used like a flambé where the alcohol is flash burned to impart the taste before the alcohol evaporates/burns away. Nothing is really gained by reducing a pan of alcohol, at least that I can think of. Don't forget that if you reduce the alcohol, the actual alcohol will be the first to evaporate as it has a lower boiling point than water.
You don't really need to reduce it for that. Pretty much any sort of cooking is going to boil off the ethanol. You aren't going to get it to thicken up, though.
Just put about 6 lbs of cucumber into a jar trying to make pickles. I've never done this before so I'm kinda winging it (and I hate measuring ingredients, just go by feel, so I'm extra special worried I'll fuck this up). Got some dill seed in addition to the dill weed, mustard seed, coriander seed, peppercorns, red pepper flakes, garlic and some allspice. I've read some things that say put it immediately into the fridge, others that say let it sit in direct sunlight for a day or two. Anyone have a recommendation on which way to go?
"Sun pickles" aren't really pickled, they're brined. If you don't get the brine mixture correct, you'll be in trouble. If you're going to do that, I really recommend you measure those ingredients, because doing it right is more science/chemistry than art or "going by feel".
I don't know if anyone else is watching the eurocup, but Iceland is really enjoying it. Even in soccer, I don't think I've ever quite seen a commentator go that ape shit. Bravo sir. Got to give credit to Iceland though. That soccer team is like half their male population and they still made it through the group stage.
HAHAHA! He is losing his shit, but if you follow the screen it barely looks like anything is going on. I do enjoy a good soccer game at the pub, though. Totally obligatory: "Center holds it! HOLDS IT! HOLDS IITTT!"
I think probably everyone has heard about it by now but there was basically a street fight in Sacramento. A white supremacist group was protesting, and another group showed up to protest against them. There were stabbings, people getting hit with bats. It was nasty. A lot of cell phone footage coming out is really gory and chaotic. Reminds me of that Waco biker brawl a few years ago.
I would've thought it virtually impossible that a group as vile and repulsive as Nazis could be victims, but the dimwitted group Antifa proved me wrong. If you're not familiar with them, you soon will be. They are an anti fascism group that violently attacks everyone who disagrees with them (Which is pretty much everyone.) They gathered with the specific purpose of attacking the legal rally (As much as I hate Nazis, they did have a legal right to be there.) : While waiting for the rally, they taunted police calling them "A bunch of pussies" (Because police are fascist) As soon as the Nazis showed they yelled "Kill the Nazis" and 300 "Protesters" charged 30 Nazis. (Because Nazis are fascists) They attacked some dude riding by on a bicycle. (Because bicycles are fascist?) Then they attacked a news crew. (Because news is fascist.) A CNN commentator blamed the whole thing on Trump, because why not? Antifa's next planned protest is the Trump rally 7/1 in Denver. Get the popcorn ready.
