Fucking hell. For two 85ml bottles? That's insanity.

This goes for baking too. Baking is no more science than cooking, and cooking is no more an art than baking. People who claim otherwise annoy me.

You need to figure out what ratios of what, do what in your recipes, and then explore how that can change with different brands/varieties of the same ingredients, different ovens, humidities, elevations if you travel, etc. Book learning can only get you so far, you need to put in the kitchen time to really understand.

The art of making good food is in being able to recreate and adapt all the science experiments you did.

Grace Hot Pepper Sauce. It has this tangy, buttery flavour and a nice amount of heat that accentuates food without melting your face.

I think they use a few different peppers in the mash as while it has a little of the apricot fire Scotch Bonnet taste to it, as you'd expect from a Caribbean brand with a bunch of Scotch Bonnets on the label, it's not the predominant chilli flavour here. I think the mash gets slightly fermented too due to that buttery taste the sauce has.

Before the pandemic it was 50p for an 85ml bottle, I miss that. £1.50 for the same size bottle still feels like a rip off.

Edit: just looked Grace Hot Pepper Sauce up as I've been thinking about it all day now since making this comment, and their website says the peppers used are a blend of Habanero and Cayenne in the mash. So my tasting apricot fire is likely a placebo from the image on the label, lmao.

Calling me the 'sanctimonious buffoon' here is a little rich considering you're the one who's been throwing insults and talking down in multiple comment replies to me now.

Also, do you not understand how question marks work or something?

I've been asking you questions. You keep getting morally offended and outraged at them, and then swearing at me and calling me names while having holier than thou rants where either you react like my questions are a personal attack on you, or you just repeat back the shit I was asking in different words, as if your phrasing makes it mean something different.

Aye, I saw the .nl in your user tag. It's not a fault to use Americanisms or anything, it was an interesting tidbit about the phrase

[–] Aksamit@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

It's so weird how Americans turned this phrase around. I looked up why a while back and apparently it was just to make it sound fancier initially and then it caught on. Either way, each to their own.

I voted in favor of the end of criminalization of abortion in my country; it was the first vote I ever cast and am proud of it.

Because you believe people should have the right to control what happens to their bodies, even if it means ending a life.

Every adult who wants access to euthanasia should have access. No ifs, no buts.

But not like that.

.

So if I have this straight: You believe that messy suicides and the life long misery and impact that having a bad life full of abuse has on people, and people dealing with finding a suicide body, are all just things people should put up with because clean, clinical euthanasia is morally wrong... and life is a gift?

Also, bro. Seriously, I was giving you a 'tirade'? Did you even read what I wrote, or just fall over your own ego getting offended after the first paragraph?

How odd, thank you for providing a translation then.

If you're on a phone, long press the image and then the alt text should be in the top of the menu box that pops up. On a computer, right click to see it.

Does the alt text not work across all lemmy servers?

 

Translation in the alt text.
