Less rice?! Speak for yourself.

[-] Bluefruit@lemmy.world 44 points 5 months ago

Absolute blasphemy.

How else will i have left over rice for fried rice if I make just enough?

[-] arandomthought@sh.itjust.works 40 points 5 months ago

The spinach part at least is true if you cook fresh spinach. Those leaves will just evaporate.

[-] dumples@kbin.social 13 points 5 months ago

The correct size is many many handfuls or one bag for most dishes

[-] programmer_belch@lemmy.dbzer0.com 26 points 5 months ago

Sorry summer person, I need to get inside a tight bed while it's freezing outside to make my problems go away

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago

Oh I like that too I agree. A weighted blanket when it's -20 in January and you don't have to go outside is wonderful.

[-] milicent_bystandr@lemm.ee 21 points 5 months ago

I like to think these are a sequence.

[-] Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.world 20 points 5 months ago

Can confirm.

For lunch I had spinach and rice soup (extra spinach), while sitting outside in the sun with a nice cup of tea. Then I punched a Nazi.

It was a good day.

Also if something calls for garlic cloves you triple whatever number it says.

[-] JayleneSlide@lemmy.world 6 points 5 months ago

Triple? In our galley, "1 clove" —> 1 bulb.

[-] dogsoahC@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago

I tend to put garlic in even when there's none at all in the recipe. Making pancakes? Stuff those fuckers with a metric fuckton of the good stuff. I may be exaggerating slightly.

When violence is the answer, its time to change the question.

[-] downdaemon@lemmy.ml 35 points 5 months ago

Someone better inform the Allied troops in WWII

[-] Bye@lemmy.world 25 points 5 months ago

Or the Ukrainians defending their homes

[-] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 33 points 5 months ago

What a lovely yet utterly useless statement

[-] kakes@sh.itjust.works 26 points 5 months ago

...with violence.

[-] Rooskie91@discuss.online 21 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

That's a cute theory, but fascists usually aren't interested in changing the question.

[-] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 4 points 5 months ago

Neither are mosquitoes.

[-] theneverfox@pawb.social 3 points 5 months ago

Well, then you just have to change their minds. Physically.

[-] _lilith@lemmy.world 13 points 5 months ago

What are you going to do? make me?

[-] Signtist@lemm.ee 9 points 5 months ago

You're right, it is. But who has the power to do that? It's not usually the people who would benefit from it; violence is the last resort of people whose other forms of control over their own lives have been stripped from them.

A rat backed into a corner lashes out in desperation. You might give the alternative solution to simply move its pursuer, but that only serves to show that you don't understand how the rat has no such power.

[-] slaacaa@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

You’re right, violence is not the answer, it’s the question. And the answer is yes.

[-] TheBat@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Violence isn't the answer. It is a question. And the answer is 'yes'.

Really depends on the tea for me. I could go for a nice raspberry green tea.

[-] sigmaklimgrindset@sopuli.xyz 1 points 5 months ago

...you can make tea out of raspberries?

[-] Soku@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

You can make tea out of nearly any plant. They are infusions rather than true tea but raspberry leaf or sprig tea is damn tasty

[-] chknbwl@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Raspberry leaf, hibiscus, and rosehips. Citrus peel instead of rosehips if you prefer a more fruity blend. Cold press with a teaspoon or two of wildflower honey, add a mint leaf for freshness and you have wonderfully refreshing summertime tea. Add boba for the kids and they don't mind the low sugar content!

[-] sigmaklimgrindset@sopuli.xyz 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

I'm not fancy enough to have all of this, but I have raspberries, mint, and honey. Time to experiment

edit: I am getting so many good tips here, I'll see if I can make something to post on Lemmy at a later date

[-] chknbwl@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Cheese cloth works works amazingly well to wrap your leaves in, no cold press necessary!

Is it really worth to massacre these innocent Raspberry Pi's just to make tea out of them?

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Raspberry leaves specifically. It's wonderful!

[-] _thebrain_@sh.itjust.works 2 points 5 months ago

Sure. With raspberries you can use dried berries, leafs, roots. It's a pretty versatile plant.

You can also make tea out of gummi bears too https://www.thesweetsbarn.net/product/gummy-bear-tea/86

Again: put stuff in hot water and let it soak. Strain said stuff and you have what is loosely defined as tea.

I probably wouldn't do used radial tire tea, but if that's what floats your boat, knock yourself out.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Its hot flavor water. What's not to love?

[-] Volkditty@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Honestly, I think I have a bit of sensitivity to the tannins. Gives me an unsettled stomach.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Oh yeah, I guess that would do it.

[-] oce@jlai.lu 2 points 5 months ago

It only gives me nausea on an empty stomach, have you tried after a meal?

[-] Timecircleline@sh.itjust.works 1 points 5 months ago

Do you like iced tea?

[-] NorthWestWind@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

You've awaken the inner Asian within me and I will rip you apart if you dare trash talk about rice.

[-] BonesOfTheMoon@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

That's legit.

[-] Krydex@slrpnk.net 2 points 5 months ago

Violence is never an answer...

Violence is the question and the answer is YES.
