the ramen packet has different emulsifiers because they cheaped out
sodium citrate is the god of cheese emulsification
just do it
tiny amount, little pinch, it will emulsify like gangbusters

My girlfriend has the FODMAP issue. The biggest problem is that everyone with it has different things that affect them. Lots of those people can't have garlic but for her it was fine. It's a fairly recent discovery and people are still trying to figure out what's what.

And it's not so much a debilitating thing (like a gluten allergy) as a dietary annoyance. Certain things won't digest properly and lead to all kinds of gastrointestinal woes.

All that aside, she would put in the effort to read the menu and only order stuff she knew was fine, with maybe a change; salmon without the glaze that contained garlic for example. If she ate or ordered something she shouldn't have, she ate it anyway.

Holy loving hell. If I were working the front desk at that restaurant I'd just tell them we're not honoring their reservation to save myself the headache of having to plan a special meal with the chef who probably wouldn't even do it anyway. This is of course assuming that they provided this document in advance when making the reservation and didn't just show up with it in hand and expected a customized three-course menu with no advance notice.

There's such a bizarre sense of entitlement with some people at restaurants. You do not have the right to get exactly what you want, on demand, wherever you go. If you're humble, understanding and friendly, restaurants will accommodate you as best as they can. But if you have such serious dietary restrictions you'll be much better served by looking at the menu in advance and figuring out what the easiest, most low-impact modifications you can ask to make are. Or just fuckin' eat at home and go out for drinks after! gently caress!

They gave us until tomorrow night. They don't want to pay extra or anything, just go ahead and make a 3 course menu special for them during the busiest part our busiest night.

We told them to go gently caress themselves.

not me. in my mind they're separated. there's the good ramen, the actual ramen. Then there's the Brick Noodles.

I still love both. chicken flavored brick noodle ramen is a nostalgia trip for me. Ah, college.

Good, one day lead time for that nonsense is BS. They're the picky whiny eater type, doubtful it's anything real. If it IS, then it's their own fault for not giving sufficient time.

You guys and gals made the right choice when you told them to gently caress off.

Give me a week's notice and I'll probably agree to do what I can with what I'll have on-hand that night, especially if you're polite about it and don't send me what looks like a list of demands sent to police in a hostage situation, typed in loving Notepad.

Give me a month's notice and I'll bend over backwards to get it done to your liking, even if you don't have an allergy/intolerance issue and really just aren't fond of onions or guac or whatever. Just be honest and it's no big.

This poo poo, though, is wholesale unacceptable. The day before an oh-so-important event and you're just now bringing me a litany of nonsensical but assuredly completely medically justified demands requests? You must not have a marijuana allergy because you are high as gently caress if you think this is gonna fly.

when i moved away from home my mom bought me a cookbook called "a man, a can, a plan". every recipe involved mostly canned stuff. it was a nice mom-gesture, but thankfully i discovered very early on that im not THAT much of a goon and actually enjoy vegetables and cooking things from scratch :)

2% at best. I cook at a hospital, we get someone with ACTUAL gluten allergies like, once a month. But every other day or so we'll get "quesadilla, no vegetables" because they're picky fuckers who don't like good things.

Yeah, when I was first starting to learn to cook, I did everything in a slow cooker (things meant for one, I wasn't trying to make pizza and poo poo in there). After like a year, I had developed enough skills to just cook normallly,,and now I only break it out for stews or chili.



Though one I time I tried to make steak in there (for the 2012 election). Lets just say I ended up drinking half a handle of vodka on an empty stomach that night

Here's the recipe. Go for it!





This recipe book has one problem that was rampant back then: incomplete ingredient lists. Included in the process section are butter, parsley, hollandaise sauce, and strawberries. The first two are ok, but gently caress you cookbook for throwing "make hollandaise sauce" at me halfway through. Cookbooks would pull that poo poo all the time.



That said, I totally would.
