Alcohol. They were just boiling it.

[-] user224@lemmy.sdf.org 18 points 2 months ago

Is that why they call the unmodified thing "raw sewage"? Is it because it's used in cooking?

[-] hansolo@lemm.ee 32 points 2 months ago

It's because the bottled sewerage market demands that their product be called "refined sewerage," or sometimes "sparkling sewerage" if carbonated.

But it can only be called "le fizzy shitz" if it's from the Shitz region of France.

[-] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 129 points 2 months ago

I know it's overused but cliches are cliche for a reason, so I love it when people say "So close!" and then make fun of someone for saying some braindead shit.

Also reminds me of some stupid ad I saw for expensive ass chlorophyll powder packets to put in your water. My sibling in christ, eat a fucking salad with spinach if you want chlorophyll.

[-] burgerpocalyse@lemmy.world 45 points 2 months ago

CHLOROPHYLL? more like BORE-OPHYLL!

It's not soup if they discard the water after cooking, leaving only the vegetables.

The alternative, btw, would be to fry everything in butter or some plant oil, i believe. That's what they're opposing.

[-] mosiacmango@lemm.ee 87 points 2 months ago

Making soup and then dumping out the soup seems like a very stupid way to make soup.

Maybe they feel better from not eating all of those simple, delicious calories.

[-] slaacaa@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

It’s like when somebody throws out the white rubbery thing after drinking their mozzarella

So... boiled vegetables. That's still already a thing. Not a particularly good thing (to my tastes), but been a thing for a long time.

Then it's a waste of vitamines.

Real men cook in motor oil.

Agreed. I always cover myself in motor oil before I flambé my crêpes suzette!!

Surely there is some third way

[-] ebolapie@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

I read in popular science that it might be possible to use a variety of different kinds of gases to carry heat, or perhaps some kind of radiant heat or even radio waves to cook food. But sadly this fantastic technology is still just fiction. I hope I get to see a form of cooking that doesn't involve immersing food in hot liquid. I wonder what it would taste like.

"Stomach is thriving"

They don't even try to form coherent thoughts anymore, just buzzwords to sell your current "brand".

Just assume this kind of sloppy copy is AI.

The depressing thing is how often it works

[-] qarbone@lemmy.world 49 points 2 months ago

Somehow, without the aid of nuclear devestation, people have managed to reset to Year 0. Just "rediscovering" shit that already existed as if it's new tech. And then try to sell it to people.

It'd almost be funny if it didn't make me so fuckin mad.

[-] Pnut@lemm.ee 11 points 2 months ago

What's worse is they all passed history class. Somehow.

Not even good soup. Real soups use some kind of broth to give a lot of base flavor.

[-] Johandea@feddit.nu 10 points 2 months ago

What do you think a broth is?

I thought this post was a nod to our ancestors who figured out the power of soup-life.

These mother fuckers getting nutrients from hitherto inedible plants and just chillin as all the others got the runs and fever from eating uncooked game with worms n shit

[-] nixcamic@lemmy.world 20 points 2 months ago

I'm convinced that everyone who starts one of these weird diets and feels better has a random food sensitivity that just happens to get cut out by their diet.

Like, you feel way better on that crazy carnivore diet where you eat only meat, but it's cause you have undiagnosed celiacs and eating only meat happens to cut out all wheat.

water based hot salad

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 18 points 2 months ago

Okay so now I'm questioning where the line between soup and stew is...

[-] Mustakrakish@lemmy.world 30 points 2 months ago
[-] SippyCup@feddit.nl 24 points 2 months ago

Stew is thicker and chunkier. Generally made by slowly braising a big ole hunk of otherwise inediblely tough meat for a long time in some kinda liquid. Soup is generally thinner with little bits of whatever the fuck you have laying around tossed in to a broth or stock.

Chili is a stew. A bisque or chowder is a soup.

[-] faythofdragons@slrpnk.net 11 points 2 months ago

I think it's more that a stew is a kind of soup. Bisque is a kind of soup, chowder is a kind of soup.

The real question is how many noodles can you eat it with before you have to start calling it a sauce.

That kinda looks like sinigang, a Filipino sour soup.

[-] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

If you want to do "water based cooking" for vegetables try steaming instead of boiling.

[-] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 12 points 2 months ago

Potagers hate this one weird trick!

[-] RizzoTheSmall@lemm.ee 10 points 2 months ago

That's clearly a stew and not a soup. I will die on this hill.
