Good luck! Enjoy your drugs :v: I had all mine removed just about 10 hours ago. I've been drinking whey protein shakes and bowls of roasted butternut squash, tomato, and red pepper soup.

I had all four wisdom teeth pulled as well as two lower baby molars that I never lost because I didn't have any adult teeth underneath which had fused onto my jaw bone.

Was high off my rear end with hydrocodine for a couple days and ate lots of oatmeal. Still missing those molars as implants are really expensive :(

Had one out due to cavity, they pulled the matching top one to go with it under local. When I asked the dentist about what to eat/not eat, he looked at me like I was an idiot and just said "Don't chew with that side."

So, basically anything that won't get into the cavity. And avoid straws, as the suction will screw up the healing.

But hey, maybe that's just Japan.

Edit: also, wisdom tooth pulling has advanced a lot in the last two decades. When I first got them done the whole thing took an hour and couldn't eat solid food for a day. This year it took fifteen minutes and they just said to avoid seeds for a couple days.

Mine were done under mild GA about 11 years ago in NYC. Took about 30 mins, and I was eating that night, albeit chewing with my front teeth. I did bleed like a motherfucker though, as my bleeding disorder hadn't been diagnosed. Pro tip: if an extraction site is bleeding, bite down on a tea bag. It moulds to the site, applies pressure, and I think the tannic acid helps clotting.

Got a odd question I am hoping some of you kitchen wizards might be able to help me out with. My gas stove will ignite randomly when I try to turn it on, sometimes it ignites 5 times in a row and other times I can go a hour turning it on and off trying to get it to catch. I can smell the gas coming out just fine and hear the ignitor clicking but the stove will not catch. I was thinking it might be a faulty ignitor/sparker but before I start taking apart my stove and replacing parts I figure I would ask you guys since most of you spend a ton of time in the kitchen.

Took my stove apart to get to the igniter and noticed the rod of the igniter was bent away from the ground, all I had to do was bend it back into tolerance and it worked like a champ.

My in-lawns came down and gave me a nice present of some offal, beef tongue, heart, liver and some kidneys which made me super happy but I am not familiar with cooking heart is all. Can anybody give me some hint, tips or yummy recipes on how to make some tasty heart? I am going to try to get my wife to eat this too, she likes tongue and marrow so maybe heart will not be to hard for her to try.

Last time I did beef heart, I cleaned it (there are videos on youtube that illustrate what you have to clean off pretty well), then marinated it something simple that I don't quite remember. Seared it and served it very rare, sliced thin, with some horseradish sauce. It's very tender and tastes like a very rich steak, though it is very lean. If you cook it too much, it gets tough in the middle, so treat it like a london broil - quickly cook each side in a very hot pan and serve.

I wish I could find heart on the regular, it's so drat tasty.

The few times I had beef heart it was already cubed and mostly cleaned. It's very good in a beef stew but you have to braise it for a long time before it gets tender.

I always heard the marinade the heart and sear it in a super hot pan really fast was thew way to go, I will hit up youtube and check out how to clean it properly and have it for dinner sometime soon. I am thinking a marinade of olive oil, garlic, a herb (maybe thyme or rosemary) and for some reason I am thinking a anchovy or two. I like making a anchovy paste to put on my steaks before I cook them and that might go good with a beef heart. Time to experiment a little bit, on the plus side if I mess this up I can always get another one for cheap, beef heart is super easy to get in my area for really cheap.

If it makes you feel better I had my wisdom teeth out during the Reagan administration. The only thing I remember is when I came out from under the anaesthesia the nurse told me that they had to keep asking me to stop singing during the procedure. I still regret not asking what I was trying to sing.

Apparently when my boyfriend got his pulled last summer, he sang the entirety of the Fresh Prince theme (before and after sedation, with a break in the middle).

I'm FGR, but hopefully I can get up some pictures that one of my dining companions took. We ended up having 13 courses, and it was the best Nobu meal I've had. Highlights were otoro with black truffle, wagyu with foie, and wild caught cod with osetra vaviar. The only course that didn't hit for me was a monkfish liver pate served with uni wrapped in shiso and tempura fried.

Service was on point, and I left in a food coma. I actually skipped the 12th course, which was the sushi course, because I was so full. We went for the more exotic omagaze (they have a few levels), and added a couple of the signature dishes up front. With wine and sake, the meal worked out to about $250/person, and I have to say it was one of the best values for that kind of dining experience I've had.

It's been a while since we talked gear, so let me open this one up; fat man winter holiday is coming up, and while I'm that douchebag who usually asks that people give to charity rather than give me stuff I can afford and probably don't need, I will probably satiate my loving mother by giving her a list of books and maybe some kitchen tools. Modernist Cooking (at home, jigger please), maybe some kitchenaid attachments. I have heard mixed reviews about the grinder, and while I have a cast-iron one, it gets dragged out once a season or so when my roommate and I feel like making dick jokes. Usually I make the pasta by hand, using a pasta machine, but the [url=]Pasta Extruder[/url] has me all hot and bothered by the prospect of homemade mac&cheese. Any suggestions? Ideally it's something that stores well, because we're running out of kitchen space (so maybe I'll pass on the puddle machine this year).

I've tried using the roller style ravioli makers that you're supposed to put two sheets on opposite sides of the rollers and pour topping in the middle and it will squeeze out finished raviolis, it doesn't work.

The seal is always terrible. They break open and float apart when cooked.

The only thing I have found that works reasonably well, other than the good old-fashioned way of rolling out a sheet of pasta placing the fillings in the middle, then putting a sheet on top and pressing it down around it and cutting them out are those ravioli making trays.

My dad has a few, and they seem to work just about okay. Getting a good seal is pretty dependent on a nice even thickness on your dough ,but that is easy to adjust with a pasta roller.

I still find the easiest way, and the most useful ravioli accessory, is a combination ravioli cutter/crimper.
After you put your first row of the go down and portion out your filling, you run some eggwash in the seam area, put the next sheet of pasta on top, press everything down, then run the crimper/cutter across the pressed down areas.

Either that, or you cut them out with a pizza cutter and Crip the edges with a fork.

Speaking of ravioli. Me and my bf went to Muir Woods yesterday for a hike, and it wiped us out. We stopped at this small Sicilian restaurant that made amazing mushroom ravioli (and amazing food in general). Goddamn, it was so good, especially after a hike.

And today I'm celebrating my 13 year anniversary of moving to the states with carne asada tacos made from scratch. Been a good weekend for food.

God loving dammit. I had my rocking pasta sauce, I go up to poop for eight minutes and someone else in the house decides to start boiling the spaghetti. I get back and the pasta is overcooked and the whole dish is limp and insipid and terrible. gently caress. gently caress. gently caress. gently caress. gently caress.

EDIT: in unsalted water. This will be a lesson to just throw out bad pasta. what the gently caress was I thinking.
