No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•I want to make a seafood boil but don't want to boil all the flavour away in a vat of water, would it turn out alright if I simmered it all in a bit of butter and old bay, spoon basting often?English
0·2 months agoTaste the water, it should be salted generously but it should taste good and to answer your previous question you can save it as a spiced seafood stock. Put it in a bisque, or make a seafood pasta with it, or boil your rice in it for some shrimp fried rice.

0·2 months agoso the diluting the flavour is a part of the process of cooking. Essentially when you boil the seafood some of the naturaL juices of the seafood will leech out into the water and will be replaced by the water.
you want this to happen. It seasons the food. That’s why you should make sure your water or broth is flavorful. Season it generously with salt, add some old bay, lemon, garlic, onions. Maybe use some beer, chicken broth, orange juice or citrus to flavour the water. Finally let your seafood sit in the hot water for 10 minutes to really allow for absorption.
You can finish your seafood in butter and baste it if you want some colour, but all those steps above will produce a delicious end product.

183·2 months agoA minister of AI makes sense, you can’t just ignore it.
A stable economic environment allows for us to make investments today that pay off in the future, but in a war like environment you need to mobilize the infrastructure you have and build support around it. Whether we like it or not we have a number of valuable resources in the ground and we need to start moving those resources elsewhere so we can invest in a renewable future.
There’s a lot of stuff I disagree with Carney on, but what I appreciate about him is that he is a pragmatist. He understands that at times you have to put your personal values aside and take the action that makes the most sense.
Winston Churchill was a racist, but he had the balls to take on Germany and not bend. Lincoln hindered post war reconstruction and his authoritarian overreach was unprecedented but he was the only person willing to tear a nation apart to rebuild it.
Leaders need to be able to put themselves aside to make decisions that produce the most utility for those they lead. This means occasionally getting pie on your face or going against your own heart. A snake acts dishonestly with malice, that’s not what’s going on here. Our current circumstances demand pragmatism we can’t crucify the only person in the room willing to act like one in the face of that.

Ya man this is a bad faith discussion. I can understand why you got banned.
whataboutism is just marginally better than personal insults and arguablY more counter productive.
People will jump to blame children who bring an immeasurable amount of joy to someone’s life (if they’re ready for them) but we won’t recognize the stagnant wages, unaffordable necessities, and stagnant opportunities that actually make it so hard.
you can do whatever you want with a child at your side. There’s one thing that gets in the way. Money.

I wholeheartedly believe there is an alternate timeline where Bernie won the 2016 democratic nomination and won the presidency and we avoided all this shit.

5·8 months agoReddit has gotten impossible with that nonsense. I got banned from a sub for calling out someone who posted a tweet about tariffs being beneficial as a scholarly source. I said, this isn’t a source it’s some guys opinion.
In another sub I got banned for suggesting that liberals claim to be above using attack ads was a dumb opinion because they’ve never said any such thing.
The polarization is bad for everyone.

1281·8 months agoWhat made the halftime show so great was that it was a celebration of something Bad Bunny actually cared about. He cared enough to want to share with you the lovely little things about his culture that make it special.
I don’t know what Kid Rock loves or cares about or wants to share (I actually have one idea but it’s gross). I do know what he hates. Nobody wants to hang out with an asshole I’d much rather go for good vibes with a language barrier.


Pay off our mortgage, pay my wife’s student loans, give my parents $1M, buy my sister in law a home to live in rent free, save the rest for my baby girl, 50k invested for all my nieces and nephews, and have another baby.
