But not with a toilet brush!

[-] Kissaki@feddit.org 4 points 1 day ago

I'm sinking about it

and to think all lemmy users live like this

[-] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 day ago

I wish I had a dedicated serving trough. Just have to make do and eat them from the pot they were cooked in.

[-] LanguageIsCool@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

That’s the picture I submitted in my Lemmy account application

[-] CmdrShepard42@lemm.ee 4 points 1 day ago

Roll that beautiful bean footage.

why were there so many beans in that context

[-] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

There's always the appropriate amount of beans unless there's not enough beans.

[-] Mr_Dr_Oink@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

That looks intentional.

You can't park there mate

[-] stoly@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago

Get a metal colander.

[-] froh42@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I have one of these:

I love it, much better than a normal strainer.

(And it doesn't take a lot of space in the drawer or dishwasher)

[-] muhyb@programming.dev 6 points 1 day ago

Pasta in this picture doesn't look cooked and probably the water is not hot as well since they added a smoke effect.

[-] froh42@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I grabbed this pic from Amazon to show the strainer. It's not how I cook pasta. Tbh probably every Chinese product is being shown with a sloppy photoshop pic, nowadays.

[-] muhyb@programming.dev 4 points 1 day ago

I know it's most likely a stock image, was just stating the obvious. Even stock images are bad nowadays.

[-] FunnyUsername@lemmy.world 1 points 17 hours ago

hey. i have that colander, too

[-] banshee@lemmy.dbzer0.com 51 points 1 day ago

You should clean your sink. Someone spilt pasta in it.

[-] fluxion@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Just pour cheese or sauce on top and eat. Then when you are done you have no dishes and just need to rinse the sink

oh look, it's ordering pizza o'clock

[-] TrendigOsthyvel@lemmy.world 42 points 1 day ago
[-] jballs@sh.itjust.works 6 points 1 day ago

Yeah feel like there is some context needed. Is OP pissing and shitting in that sink?

[-] Contramuffin@lemmy.world 27 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Have you never seen a bottle brush? If not, get one. It'll change your life

Yeah, but change it how? Maybe it'll run away with your partner.

[-] somethingsnappy@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago

I've never seen one that looks like it has been used as a toilet brush and never cleaned. I do love my clean bottle brushes though.

[-] seekpie@lemmy.seekpie.nohost.me 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

To me it seems like that the lighting is probably making it look more yellow than it is (looking at the white towel on the bottom right).

I prefer my life to be unchanged, thank you very much.

[-] MonkderVierte@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 day ago

Yep, the sink is ugly.

[-] ParadoxSeahorse@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago

What is this grill in the sink? Is this a thing

[-] adhocfungus@midwest.social 10 points 1 day ago

It's definitely not required, but ever since we got one I've grown to like it. If you have a ceramic sink it helps prevent scratches. It also helps dishes stay put, like pot lids that normally slide around. Most of all I like it when I put a strainer down. I know the strained liquid won't touch the sink and flow back into the food, even if the risk was low before.

[-] sauce@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 day ago

Also gives a flat surface for pots/jugs to sit on while you're filling them with water. I have them in my sinks at home and love them.

Your side dish said "pasta la vista, baby".

That there's why I always cook 6x the amount of pasta I need!

Just joking, it's impossible to judge how much pasta I need.

[-] general_kitten@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 day ago

i usually just make a lot, pasta is good as leftovers so might as well make a ton as the effort is about same

[-] dustyData@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

There is, but it's not fun or interesting. Just weight the pasta. The change in volume is irrelevant, just make sure it is between 25 to 75 grams of dry pasta. Then you'll get between 50 and 150 grams of pasta per person. The weight gain is absorbed water.

[-] HEXN3T 3 points 1 day ago
[-] somethingsnappy@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

Invert the strainer. Put over pot. Drain. Pasta stays in warm pot. Then add your sauce. (Doesn't work well with rice noodles or other things that need to be cooled down quickly).

[-] Sivecano@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 day ago
[-] adhocfungus@midwest.social 3 points 1 day ago

I shed a tear and sing In the Arms of an Angel by Heather McLachlan every time I do this. Even for a single noodle.

[-] melroy@kbin.melroy.org 4 points 1 day ago

Good news: half of it is saved.

[-] Damage@feddit.it 8 points 1 day ago

If your sink was a bit cleaner, you could just scoop it up

[-] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago

I'd never do that, even if I just deep cleaned my sink.

[-] Damage@feddit.it 6 points 1 day ago

sink is steel, just like the pot you just used to cook the pasta, if it's clean it's clean. if in doubt rinse the pasta.

[-] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago

It's less about how clean it actually is and more about how I feel about it. Same way that I wouldn't eat anything that fell into a brand new unused toilet. Like, it's clean, but... nah.

[-] IsThisAnAI@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Has the sink been heated to to 400 to kill everything? Well maybe steel is steel isn't quite applicable in this context.

Your kitchen sink has a mess of bacteria in it unless you recently sterilized it.

[-] maccentric@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago

They did just pour boiling water all over that area, should be relatively safe
